چکیده مقاله:

Background: Streptococcus agalactiae is the main causal pathogen of bovine mastitis (BM), causing considerable economic loss to the dairy industry worldwide. Vaccines against S. agalactiae play an important role in preventing disease. Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunoprotection of S. agalactiae pilus island fusion proteins, ancillary protein 1-ancillary protein 2 (AP1-AP2), ancillary protein 1-bone protein (AP1-BP), bone protein-ancillary protein 2 (BP-AP2), and ancillary protein 1-bone protein-ancillary protein 2 (AP1-BP-AP2) in Balb/c mice. Methods: Four kinds of fusion antigens and the same volume of Freund’s complete adjuvant were mixed vigorously to prepare fusion antigen immuno-samples. The mice were immunized 4 times (on the 0th, 7th, 14th, and 28th days) with these samples with an immunizing dose of 50 mg/mouse. After the 4th immunization, serology tests were used to evaluate the antibody. The antibody titre produced by AP1-BP-AP2 fusion antigen was the highest, at up to 1:25600. The mice were then injected with 0.5 ml of 2 × 104 CFU/ml clinically isolated S. agalactiae at day 50 and observed daily for the following 7 days. Results: Statistical analyses showed that these 4 kinds of fusion antigens had good protective immunity. Among them, AP1-BP-AP2 fusion antigen had the best protective immunity in Balb/c mice, with an immune protection index (PI) of 80%. Conclusion: This research provides a reliable theoretical basis for screening candidate antigens of the subunit vaccine and detecting antigen preparations of S. agalactiae.

Evidence for the Sialylation of PilA, the PI-2a Pilus-Associated Adhesin of Streptococcus agalactiae Strain NEM316

Streptococcus agalactiae (or Group B Streptococcus, GBS) is a commensal bacterium present in the intestinal and urinary tracts of approximately 30% of humans. We and others previously showed that the PI-2a pilus polymers, made of the backbone pilin PilB, the tip adhesin PilA and the cell wall anchor protein PilC, promote adhesion to host epithelia and biofilm formation. Affinity-purified PI-2a ...
