Purpose: In the present study, the protective immunological markers in serum and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccinated and unvaccinated children were evaluated after vaccination. Further, PBMCs of children with low protective levels were boosted with BCG, Ag85B, and Ag85B peptides to study their booster effects to increase waning BCG induced immunity. Materials and Methods: Fifty children from 1 month to 18 years of age were randomized for the study. Blood samples were collected from 27 participants with/without BCG vaccination. Immunological markers (anti-BCG, interferon γ [IFN-γ], and adenosine deaminase activity) were assessed in both serum and PBMCs of children. Children with low levels of protective immunological markers were further recruited and their PBMCs were boosted with BCG, Ag85B, and Ag85B peptides. Results: Children in age group of 4-6 years were associated with significantly (p<0.05) higher BCG-specific IgG and IFN-γ levels compared to those in age group greater than 10 years. Vaccinated children had greater repertoire of immunological memory which on in vitro stimulation with BCG showed increase in BCG-specific response compared to unvaccinated controls. Assessment of booster effects of BCG, Ag85B, and Ag85B peptides in PBMCs of children revealed greater potential of peptides to boost BCG induced immunity compared to BCG and Ag85B. Conclusion: To conclude, children within age 4-6 years are associated with high immunological markers which eventually diminish with age thereby suggesting need for booster dose in later years. Mycobacterium tuberculosis peptides along with BCG may be used as attractive candidates to boost such waning BCG induced immunity in children.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a serious global infectious pathogen causing tuberculosis (TB). The development of an easy and sensitive method for the detection of M. tuberculosis is in urgent need due to complex and low specificity of the current assays. Herein, we present a novel method for M. tuberculosis detection based on a sandwich assay via antigen-antibody interaction using silica-coated quantum dots (SiQDs) and gold nanorods (AuNRs). A genetically engineered recombinant antibody (GBP-50B14 and SiBP-8B3) was bound to surfaces of AuNRs and SiQDs respectively, without any surface modification. The antigen-antibody interaction was revealed using M. tuberculosis-specific secretory antigen, Ag85B. Two biocomplexes showed a quenching effect in the presence of the target antigen through a sandwich assay. The assay response was in the range of 1x10<SUP>-3</SUP>-1x10<SUP>-10</SUP>μgmL<SUP>-1</SUP> (R=0.969) and the limit of detection for Ag85B was 13.0pgmL<SUP>-1</SUP>. The Ag85B was selectively detected using three different proteins (CFP10, and BSA), and further specifically confirmed by the use of spiked samples. Compared with existing methods, a highly sensitive and selective method for Ag85B-expressing M. tuberculosis detection has been developed for better diagnosis of TB.

연구배경 : IFN-${\gamma}$는 결핵균에 대한 숙주의 면역학적 방어기전에서 핵심적인 역할을 한다. 그러므로 결핵균 항원들이 IFN-${\gamma}$ 유전자 발현에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것은 결핵균에 대한 숙주의 방어기전을 밝히고 이를 이용한 백신의 개발에 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 방 법 : 결핵성 흉막염 환자의 흉수에서 얻은 림프구 배양액에 결핵균(H37Rv), PPD, Ag85B, man-LAM, ara-LAM을 첨가하여 자극한 후 림프구의 IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현 정도를 역전사 중합효소연쇄반응을 이용하여 비교하였다. 결 과 : 1) 결핵균(H37Rv)이 결핵성 흉수 림프구의 IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현을 증가시켰다. 2) 결핵균 항원 중 PPD와 Ag85B는 결핵성 흉수 림프구의 IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현을 증가시켰지만 man-LAM은 결핵성 흉수 림프구의 IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현을 억제시켰다. 3) LAM 중에서 man-LAM은 용량이 증가함에 따라 결핵성 흉수 림프구의 IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현의 억제 정도가 증가하였지만 ara-LAM의 경우 이와 같은 현상이 관찰되지 않았다. 결 론 : 결핵성 흉수 림프구의IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA의 발현은 PPD와 Ag85B의 자극에 의해 항진되지만 man-LAM의 자극에 의해서는 억제되었다. Background : IFN-${\gamma}$ is the main effector mediator of the host immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Evaluating the IFN-${\gamma}$ gene expression in response to M. tuberculosis antigens may help in elucidating the host defense mechanism against M. tuberculosis and in the development of a vaccine. Methods : The IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA expression in the lymphocytes obtained from pleural effusions from tuberculous pleurisy patients (TB-PLC) after in vitro stimulation with whole cell M. tuberculosis(H37Rv), purified protein derivatives(PPD), man-lipoarabinamman (man-LAM), ara-LAM and Antigen 85B(Ag85B) were evaluated. The degree of IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA expression was determined by a semiquantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. Results : M. tuberculosis induced the expression of IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA in the TB-PLC in time and dose dependent manners. The PPD and Ag85B induced high levels of IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA expression in the TB-PLC. However, man-LAM inhibited IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA expression in the TB-PLC, while ara-LAM did not. Conclusion : IFN-${\gamma}$ mRNA expression in TB-PLC is stimulated by PPD and Ag85B, but inhibited by man-LAM.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a serious health issue around the word. Adenovirus (Ad)-based vaccine and modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA)-based vaccine have emerged as two of the most promising immunization candidates over the past few years. However, the performance of the homologous and heterologous prime-boost immunization regimens of these two viral vector-based vaccines remains unclear. In the present study, we constructed recombinant Ad and MVA expressing an Ag85B-TB10.4 fusion protein (AdH4 and MVAH4) and evaluated the impact of their different immunization regimens on the humoral and cellular immune responses. We found that the viral vector-based vaccines could generate significantly higher levels of antigen-specific antibodies, IFN-γ-producing splenocytes, CD69<sup>+</sup>CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells, and IFN-γ secretion when compared with bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in a mouse model. AdH4-containing immunization regimens (AdH4-AdH4, AdH4-MVAH4, and MVAH4-AdH4) induced significantly stronger antibody responses, much more IFN-γ-producing splenocytes and CD69<sup>+</sup>CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells, and higher levels of IFN-γ secretion when compared with the MVAH4-MVAH4 immunization regimen. The number of IFN-γ-producing splenocytes sensitive to CD8<sup>+</sup> T-cell restricted peptides of Ag85B (9-1p and 9-2p) and Th1-related cytokines (IFN-γ and TNF-α) in the AdH4-MVAH4 heterologous prime-boost regimen immunization group was significantly higher than that in the other viral vector-based vaccine- and BCG-immunized groups, respectively. These results indicate that an immunization regimen involving AdH4 may have a higher capacity to induce humoral and cellular immune responses against TB in mice than that by regimens containing BCG or MVAH4 alone, and the AdH4-MVAH4 prime-boost regimen may generate an ideal protective effect.
