Immunostimulating effect of <i>Yersinia enterocolitica</i>-antigen conjugated gold nanoparticles
description Yersinia enterocolitica is one of the most common causative agents of nosocomial infections and the causative agent of yersiniosis, an acute infectious disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Intestinal yersiniosis caused by Y. enterocolitica is a very pressing issue for clinical and veterinary medicine requiring use of sero- and immunodiagnostics to identify the causative agent in humans, animals and animal products. Gold nanoparticles represent one of the most popular antigen nanocarriers used for immunization and vaccination. The advantages of using gold nanoparticles as vaccine delivery vehicles are associated with their relatively small size promoting their tissue penetration, low toxicity and prolonged in vivo circulation, low cost, and reproducibility. Currently, the development of new gold nanoparticle-containing diagnostic tests and vaccines against viral, bacterial, parasitic infections, including bacteria of the genus Yersinia is underway. The aim of the study was to examine efficacy of 15 nm gold nanoparticles as an immunomodulator coupled to Y. enterocolitica-derived antigen for immunization and vaccination. Final conjugate construct was used to immunize laboratory animals. The methods of immunochemical analysis assessed sensitivity and specificity of the antibodies obtained.
