Study of Antigenic Activity of Experimental Samples of the Conjugated Vaccines Based on Synthetic Oligosaccharide Ligands and CRM197 Carrier Protein against Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

By now there is no effective treatment for a number of socially significant bacterial and fungal diseases. β-(1→3)-glucans are the principal components of the cell wall of fungi, including Candida albicans, Aspergillusfumigatus and other. At the same time, β-(1→3)-glucans are absent in mammals and man, that makes them promising components of carbohydrate-protein conjugated vaccines for the prevention and treatment of fungal infections. Alginic acid, constructed of β-(1→ 4)-linked mannuronic acid are extracellular polysaccharides produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The protein CRM197 is a non toxic derivative of diphtheria toxin, which is widely used as a safe carrier in conjugated vaccines. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antigenic activity of experimental samples of the conjugated vaccines based on synthetic oligosaccharide ligands and CRM197 carrier protein in the competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Two-time immunization Balb/c mice with experimental samples of the conjugated vaccines induced the formation of high titers of specific antibodies. High antibody’s avidity to their oligosaccharide ligands was shown in competitive ELISA. These data suggest the relevance of further preclinical trials of the conjugated antifungal vaccine against Candida and Aspergillus and antibacterial vaccine against Pseudomonas.
