Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Immunogenicity of CP8, CLFA-FnBPB and CP8-CLFA-FnBPB AntigensXiuli Liu, Yongqing Hao, Shuyi Wang et al.To assess the effects of conjugating Capsular Polysaccharide (CP) with Clumping factor A (ClfA) and Fibronectin-Binding Proteins B (FnBPB) on the immunogenicity of the antigen, CP was isolated and purified from serotype 8 (CP8) Staphylococcus aureus from bovine mastitis dairy herds in Inner Mongolia and ClfA-FnBPB was produced with Escherichia coli encoding a fusion protein ClfA-FnBPB gene. The CP8-ClfA-FnBPB complete … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2013 · 7,545 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Action of Bovine Cartilage on Tumor Cells In Vitro And In VivoArax Tanelian, Alexander M. AbdelnoorIn an earlier study we had investigated the effect of Bovine Cartilage (BC) on mouse melanoma cells. In pursuant to this study BC anti-tumor activity in vitro against several human tumor cell lines was evaluated, mechanism by which BC induces tumor cell death was studied and its immunogenicity was assessed. Five mice received Intraperitoneal (IP) injection of BC once every … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2018 · 9,664 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunological Evidence for Peptide-Carbohydrate Mimicry with a Group A Streptococcus Polysaccharide-Mimetic PeptideSilvia Borrelli, Rehana B. Hossany, Susan Findlay, B. Mario PintoThe immunogenicity of a peptide-protein conjugate developed by linking a peptide mimic DRPVPY of the Group A Streptococcus cell-wall polysaccharide (GAS-CWPS), to tetanus toxoid (TT) was examined. BALB/c mice were immunized three times subcutaneously following homologous or heterologous prime/boost strategies at 4- or 6- week intervals in two different experiments. DRPVPY-TT, CWPS-TT, heat-killed, pepsin-treated GAS bacteria (with exposed polysaccharide) and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
