ABSTRACT
Objective:
To induce an anti-hCG? antibody response in reproductive tract and the peripheral by oral inoculation with a recombinant alive Lactobacilli expressing hCG? in different strains of mouse.Methods:
The 108,109,1010 Lb.hCG?, a recombinant Lactobacillus expressing hCG?, were inoculated orally into 6-8-week-old female BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. The immunized mice were all boosted with the same dose at interval of 3 weeks. An indirect ELISA was used to determine anti-hCG? IgG and IgA antibodies in vaginal lavage and serum that were got at the end of 2-8 weeks after the primary immunization. The B and T lymphocytes of spleen, uterus and vagina were prepared respectively, and their proliferation was analyzed by flow cytometry. The numbers of the cells secreting anti-hCG? IgG or IgA antibody were detected by ELISpot.Results:
Inoculation of 109 or 1010 alive Lb.hCG? could induce similar response while 108 induce a lower attitude of response. The antiserum of either 109 or 1010 Lb. hCG? immunization after booster could neutralized more than 100 ng/ml of hCG antigen both in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. The B cell proliferation of the reproductive mucosa was more significantly higher than that of spleen in BALB/c mice(P
