摘要
目的:加特隐球菌是一种严重的真菌感染,在免疫抑制和免疫功能健全的人群中死亡率很高。由于目前抗真菌治疗的局限性,我们正在探索新的免疫治疗方法。方法:本研究探讨了一种利用热灭活 C. gattii 和 ArtinM 作为佐剂的免疫策略。C57BL/6 小鼠经鼻内免疫热灭活的 C. gattii,在免疫前或与 HK-C. gattii 一起注射 ArtinM。用 C. gattii 感染小鼠并评估免疫方案的有效性。结果接受ArtinM的小鼠肺部IL-10水平和IL-23相对表达量增加,真菌负担减少,感染后组织完整性得到保护。结论佐剂 ArtinM 提高了 C57BL/6 小鼠对 C. gattii 感染的免疫效果。
Adjuvant ArtinM favored the host immunity against Cryptococcus gattii infection in C57BL/6 mice.
Aim:Cryptococcus gattii causes a severe fungal infection with high mortality rate among immunosuppressed and immunocompetent individuals. Due to limitation of current antifungal treatment, new immunotherapeutic approaches are explored.Methods: This study investigated an immunization strategy utilizing heat-inactivated C. gattii with ArtinM as an adjuvant. C57BL/6 mice were intranasally immunized with heat-killed C. gattii and ArtinM was administrated either before immunization or along with HK-C. gattii. Mice were infected with C. gattii and the efficacy of the immunization protocol was evaluated.Results: Mice that received ArtinM exhibited increased levels of IL-10 and relative expression of IL-23 in the lungs, reduced fungal burden and preserved tissue integrity post-infection.Conclusion: Adjuvant ArtinM improved immunization against C. gattii infection in C57BL/6 mice.
