Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals. To prevent the spread of FMDV, inactivated virus vaccines are used to immunize animals in developing countries. However, there are safety concerns. In addition, it is difficult to distinguish the vaccinated animals from those naturally infected ones. In our lab, we have developed a recombinant FMDV vaccine named...
BCG Hsp65 and PADRE have been shown to be potent to enhance antigen specific immunity. In order to explore the possibility to utilize them for the development of HBV therapeutic vaccine, a chimeric protein, Hsp65-HBV, was created by fusing PADRE and epitopes from HBV to the carboxyl-terminus of BCG Hsp65 and expressed in E. coli. We evaluated its effects on human dendritic cell maturation and specific...
In order to develop novel canine CpG ODNs as adjuvant for rabies vaccine of dog use, a panel of CpG ODNs containing different CpG motifs was designed and screened for their ability to induce the proliferation of canine splenocytes. Three AACGTT motif-containing CpG ODNs, designated as YW07, YW08 and YW09, respectively, were outshined with stronger ability to activate canine immune cells. The CpG ODNs...
To develop a CpG containing oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG ODN)-enhanced rabies vaccine for stimulating an earlier production of rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNAb) with high titers, we designed a CpG ODN (BW006) and evaluated its adjuvant activities in enhancing the immune response to rabies vaccine with or without aluminum in mice. It was found that BW006 could facilitate the rabies vaccine to...
