Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo compare humoral immune response by co-inoculating mice with antigen HPV16L1 virus-like particle (VLP) and HPV16L1 recombinant plasmids and then observing the neutralizing antibody activity in vitro.
METHODSC57BL/6 mice were injected intramuscularly/subcutaneously with pcDNA-L1 plasmids plus HPV16L1 VLP. Serum IgG levels were detected by ELISA, antibody neutralizing protective activities were determined by hemagglutination inhibition and HPV16L1 VLP binding inhibition assay.
RESULTSSerum antibody titers and neutralizing antibody activities were increased in HPV16L1 plasmids plus HPV16L1 VLP proteins in co-immunized mice when compared with controls.
CONCLUSIONCo-inoculation of the HPV16L1 VLP protein can enhance production of neutralizing antibody activities against aimed antigen, which should be a more promising strategy for effective HPV16 prophylactic vaccine development.
