Two vaccine trials were conducted with low- and high-dose purified Twen-ether-treated SIVmac adsorbed onto aluminum hydroxide using rhesus macaques. In the first experiment 7 macaques were immunized with a total amount of 560 micrograms protein and 3 animals served as controls. After the immunization period the vaccinees exhibited ELISA titers up to 1:1280 and 5 immunized animals showed an antigen-specific proliferative response. After the virus challenge the 3 control animals and 3 vaccinees became infected. Four of the infected animals developed a cytotoxic T-cell response beginning 8 weeks postchallenge. The 4 protected animals were rechallenged 16 weeks later and all became infected. For the high-dose experiment 5 immunized animals receiving 2 mg of antigen and 2 control animals were used. The ELISA titers of the vaccinees reached 1:20480 and 4 animals exhibited an antigen-specific proliferative response. In response to virus challenge the 2 control and 1 immunized animal became infected. From these data it can be concluded that the high-dose immunization scheme elicited higher antibody titers and increased the fraction of protected animals.
使用恒河猴对吸附于氢氧化铝上的低剂量和高剂量纯化双醚处理的SIVmac进行了两项疫苗试验。在第一个实验中,7只猕猴用总量为560微克蛋白质进行免疫,3只动物作为对照。免疫期后,疫苗接种者的ELISA滴度高达1:1280,5只免疫动物表现出抗原特异性增殖反应。病毒攻击后,3只对照动物和3只疫苗接种者被感染。4只受感染动物在攻击后8周开始产生细胞毒性T细胞反应。4只受保护的动物在16周后再次受到攻击,全部被感染。在高剂量实验中,使用了5只接受2毫克抗原的免疫动物和2只对照动物。疫苗接种者的ELISA滴度达到1:20480,4只动物表现出抗原特异性增殖反应。针对病毒攻击,2只对照动物和1只免疫动物被感染。从这些数据可以得出结论,高剂量免疫方案引发了更高的抗体滴度,并增加了受保护动物的比例。
