Abstract:
Objective To observe stimulation and regulation of T lymphocyte subtypes by wild-type and mutant A?40 and A?42 conjugated with different adjuvants and to investigate possible ways to lower the toxicity of A? immune response. Methods Forty BALB/c mice were randomized into five groups:Al adjuvant group,A?42+CFA group,A?42+Al group,A?40+Al group and A?40(E22A)+Al group. After an initial immunization and booster immunization,antibody was titrated. Their splenocytes were stimulated by respective antigen. After 48 h,the quantities of IFN-?,IL-2,TNF-? and IL-4 were tested. After 72 h of culture,the proliferative response of splenocytes was detected by CCK-8 assay.Results Experimental groups generated specific anti-A? antibodies with proliferative response of spleen lymphocytes. Cytokine detection in culture supernatant showed that A?42+CFA group had the highest secretion of Th1-type cytokines IFN-?,IL-2,TNF-? when A?40(E22A)+Al group had the lowest(P
