摘要:
Diagnostic testing and immunomonitoring that uses genetically detoxified Bordetella pertussis CyaA as a delivery system are effective in tracking any immune responses, such as those generated by infectious and non-infectious diseases, or vaccinations, for example. T cells previously stimulated by a given antigen can be restimulated in vitro by the same antigen fused or chemically coupled to CyaA or a fragment thereof. The invention includes diagnostic tests and immunomonitoring for tuberculosis by providing a delivery system, which can deliver the M. tuberculosis immunodominant proteins ESAT-6 and CFP-10, to human cells and non-human animal cells, such as cattle. In addition, fusion proteins between CyaA and cancer antigens are also provided as diagnostic tests and immunomonitoring systems for cancers, such as melanoma.

摘要:
The invention relates to modified Bordetella adenylate cyclase toxins which are deficient for CD11b/CD18 binding and to their use in the preparation of pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of whooping cough and/or for the protection against Bordetella infection. The invention also relates to specific fragments of Bordetella adenylate cyclase comprising the CD11b/CD18 interaction domain and their use, especially for targeting a molecule of interest to CD11b expressing cells.
摘要:
The present invention provides an innovative versatile system, which allows delivery of one or several antigens or biologically active molecules into or onto targeted subset of cells. The invention is in particular directed to a combination of compounds and in particular to a composition, which comprises: (i) a fusion polypeptide comprising a streptavidin (SA) or avidin polypeptide and one or several effector molecule(s), wherein said fusion polypeptide retains the property of SA and avidin polypeptides to bind biotin; (ii) biotinylated targeting molecule(s), which are capable of targeting subset(s) of cells and/or cell surface molecule(s), and in particular dendritic cells (DC), subsets of DC and/or surface molecule(s) (including surface receptor(s)) of DC. The combination of the invention is suitable for use for targeting, in vivo, in vitro or ex vivo, of one or several effector molecule(s) to subset(s) of cells and/or cell surface molecule(s), and in particular for diagnosing or immunomonitoring a disease in a mammal or in prophylactic treatment and especially in vaccination and in therapy including in immunotherapy. The combination of the invention is also intended for use in vivo or ex vivo, for inducing a T cell immune response in bone marrow of naive donors before transplantation, or for activation and/or expansion of a T cell immune response in bone marrow of already immunized donors. The invention also relates to a method for the production of a fusion polypeptide of the invention and to a kit for a diagnostic test of a disease in a mammal, for immunomonitoring a disease in a mammal or for the prevention or treatment of a disease in a mammal.

The present invention relates to a strain of M. bovis BCG or M. microti, wherein said strain has integrated part or all of the RD1 region responsible for enhanced immunogenicity of the tubercle bacilli, especially the ESAT-6 and CFP-10 genes. These strains will be referred as the M bovis BCG::RDI or M. microti::RD1 strains and are useful as a new improved vaccine for preventing tuberculosis and as a therapeutical product enhancing the stimulation of the immune system for the treatment of bladder cancer. These strains are also useful for the expression and presentation of heterologous antigens and molecule that are of therapeutic or prophylactic interest.
