Objective To study protective immunity effects of co-immunization with P30 DNA vaccine and protein vaccine. Methods Forty-eight 5-6 weeks old BALB/c female mice were divided into four groups (A,B,C,D), 12 mice of each group. In group A (control group) each mouse was immunized with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1 plasmid DNA by intramuscular (i.m.) for three times at week 0,2 and 4; in group B (P30 protein group) each mouse was immunized (i.m.) with 50 ?g rP30+50 ?g CFA for three times at week 0, 2 and 4; in group C (pcDNA3.1-P30 group) each mouse was immunized with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1-P30 plasmid DNA (i.m.) for three times at week 0, 2 and 4; in group D (P30 DNA+rP30 co-immunization group) each mouse was immunized with 100 ?g pcDNA3.1-P30 plasmid DNA (i.m.) for two times at week 0, 2 and immunized by subcutaneous with 50 ?g rP30+50 ?g CFA at week 4. Each mouse was infected with 100 tachyzoites of Toxoplasma gondii RH strain four weeks later after last immunization. The anti-P30 antibodies were detected with ELISA before the challenge. Results The P30 DNA vaccine was successfully constructed. High titers of anti-P30 antibodies were induced in each mouse immunized with DNA vaccine. The protective trial proved that there was no significant difference between control group and experimental group though the survival time of mouse from experimental group had been prolonged. Conclusion The P30 DNA vaccine could induced high titers of anti- P30 antibodies in immunized mice, and it may be a potential DNA vaccine candidate.

AIM: To examine the change of serum tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), nitric oxide (NO) in patient with congestive heart failure (CHF) and the effect of angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ), valsartan on TNF-? and NO production in culture peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), to assess the relationship between the renin-angiotensin system and cytokines. METHODS: Venous blood of both healthy volunteers (n=12) and patients with CHF (n=16) were collected. Serum TNF-? and NO were examined. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were obtained from both the control and the patients groups and cultured with AngⅡ at concentrations of 0, 0.01, 0.1, 1 ?mol/L, respectively. AngⅡ at concentration of 0.1 ?mol/L combined with 0.1 ?mol/L of valsartan was also used. After 24 h incubation, the contents of TNF-? and NO in the culture supernatants were measured. RESULTS: Serum TNF-? and NO production in CHF group were significantly higher than that in control group (P0.05) were observed. AngⅡ stimulated TNF-? and NO release from PBMC of patients with CHF and normal person, which was inhibited by valsartan. CONCLUSIONS: AngⅡ obviously increases TNF-? and NO production from PBMC, which indicates there is relationship between the renin-angiotensin system and TNF-?, NO. The fact that valsartan inhibits TNF-? production may be one of the mechanisms in treating CHF.
