Avaliação de diferentes vias de imunização com novo adjuvante para Neisseria meningitidis em diferentes linhagens de camundongos. / Evaluation of different immunization routes with new adjuvant for Neisseria meningitidis in different strains of mouse.

Brito, Luciana Tendolini 29 October 2015 (has links)
Na primeira parte do estudo camundongos Swiss foram imunizados por diferentes vias de imunização com OMVs de Neissera meningitidis com DDA-BF ou HA como adjuvantes . Os adjuvantes e diferentes vias foram comparados quanto às respostas imunes por meio de ELISA ,Immunoblot ,HTT e análise histopatológica. Os animais imunizados apenas com adjuvantes não produziram títulos de anticorpos. Após única dose e decorridos 15 dias, a imunização com HA e antígeno apresentou títulos de IgG mais altos em relação ao DDA-BF nas vias subcutânea, intraperitoneal e intramuscular. Após 2 doses e 66 dias, todas as vias exibiram títulos de IgG, sendo as que receberam o HA com OMVs produziram títulos discretamente mais altos e ainda altos índices de avidez. O perfil da resposta imune quanto ao padrão Th1/Th2 foi avaliado. Ambos adjuvantes promoveram a produção de IgG2a, as respostas variaram de acordo com as vias de imunização utilizada. Enquanto as vias subcutânea e intramuscular induziram títulos semelhantes de IgG2a para ambos adjuvantes, a via intraperitoneal com DDA teve título mais alto. A produção de IgG1 foi modulada apenas por HA, sendo mais robusta na via subcutânea, seguida pela intramuscular com valores muito próximos aos da intraperitoneal. Camundongos isogênicos Balb/c H2d e C57Bl/6J H2b foram imunizados pela via subcutânea. Foram avaliadas as produções de anticorpos do tipo IgG, IgG1 e IgG2a, bem como o índice de avidez de IgG. De modo geral, os grupos de OMVs HA induziram maior produção de anticorpos que OMVs DDA ou apenas OMVs, enquanto os controles HA, DDA e salina não apresentaram níveis de anticorpos. Pelas técnicas utilizadas no estudo não observamos uma diferença significante entre os dois adjuvantes utilizados independente da via e da linhagem de camundongos utilizados. / In the first part of the study Swiss mice were immunized by different routes of immunization with OMVs of Neisseria meningitidis with DDA-BF or HA as adjuvants. Adjuvants and different routes were compared regarding immune responses through ELISA, Immunoblot, HTT and histopathological analysis. Animals immunized with only adjuvants did not produce evidence of antibodies. After single dose and 15 days, of immunization with HA presented antigen specific IgG higher in relation to the DDa-BF in the subcutaneous, intraperitoneal and intramuscular immunization . After 2 doses and 66 days, all exhibited IgG, and the bonds that received the HA with OMVs produced titles discreetly higher and still high levels of antibodies. The profile of the immune response to Th1/Th2 pattern has been evaluated. Both adjuvants promoted the production of IgG2a, the responses varied according to the immunization routes used. While the subcutaneous and intramuscular routes induced similar titles of IgG2a to both adjuvant intraperitoneal route with had highest title. IgG1 production was modulated only by HA, being more robust in subcutaneous injection, followed by intramuscular with values very close to those of intraperitoneal. Isogenic Balb/c and C57Bl/6J H2d H2b mice were immunized by subcutaneous administration. Been evaluated antibody production of type IgG, IgG1 and IgG2a, as well as the IgG avidity index. In General, the greater production of OMVs HA induced antibodies that OMVs DDA or just OMVs, while the controls .DDA-BF and controls showed no antibody levels. The techniques used in the study did not observe a significant difference between the two adjuvants used independent of the route and of mice strains used.

Patogeneze klíšťové encefalitidy a její ovlivnění genetickým pozadím hostitele / The role of genetic background of the host on the pathogenesis of tick-borne encephalitis

PALUS, Martin January 2011 (has links)
We examined the influence of the host genetic background on the pathogenesis of tick-borne encephalitis. We determined virus titers in organs and serum in different time intervals post-infection for different ways of inoculation. We also stated mean survival times and antibody production in different strains of mice infected with tick-borne encephalitis virus. Moreover, differences in expression of immunologicaly important genes in brains of infected mice were compared.
