To observe the effects of anti-fecundity and anti-embryonation immunity of anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody NP30 of Schistosoma japonicum on female adult worm.
The active immunization of C57BL/6 mice was conducted by means of three intraperitoneal injections of NP30. The control group was injected with SP2/0 ascites intraperitoneally.
On the twenty-seventh day after challenge infection, the number of eggs in the liver tissue and in uterus of the group immunized with NP30 decreased by 30.91% and by 38.55%, respectively. On the thirty-ninth day after the challenge infection, the number of mature eggs in the liver tissue of the group immunized with NP30 decreased by 66.63% and the number of dead eggs increased by 60.66%.
NP30, with which mice were actively immunized, possesses double effects of anti-fecundity and anti-embryonation immunity on female adult worm of Schistosoma japonicum, therefore it can be used as a promising candidate of anti-pathologic vaccine molecule against Schistosomiasis japonica.
观察日本血吸虫抗独特型单克隆抗体NP30的抗生育和抗胚免疫对日本血吸虫雌虫的作用。
通过腹腔注射NP30对C57BL/6小鼠进行主动免疫。对照组腹腔注射SP2/0腹水。
攻击感染后第27天,NP30免疫组肝脏组织和子宫内虫卵数分别减少30.91%和38.55%。攻击感染后第39天,NP30免疫组肝脏组织中成熟虫卵数减少66.63%,死卵数增加60.66%。
主动免疫小鼠的NP30对日本血吸虫雌虫具有抗生育和抗胚免疫双重作用,因此可作为抗日本血吸虫病病理疫苗分子的有前途的候选物。
