Overall, we putatively identified 15,903 distinct, named, small-molecule structures (4473 at 10% FDR) among the 895 samples analyzed, with the aim of identifying metabolite correlates of the vaccine response, as well as prognostic and diagnostic markers from the periods before and after vaccination, respectively. Notably, we found that the metabolic profiles could unbiasedly separate the high-risk High-responders from the high-risk None-responders (obese/geriatric) within 3 days post-vaccination. The purine metabolites Guanine and Hypoxanthine were negatively associated with high seroconversion (p = 0.0032, p < 0.0001, respectively), while Acetyl-Leucine and 5-Aminovaleric acid were positively associated. Further changes in Cystine, Glutamic acid, Kynurenine and other metabolites implicated early oxidative stress (3 days) after vaccination as a hallmark of the High-responders. Ongoing efforts are aimed toward validating these putative markers using a ferret model of influenza infection, as well as an independent cohort of human seasonal vaccination and human challenge studies with live virus.immunized with thyrotropin receptor-transfected fibroblasts.against malaria in rhesus monkeys.is required to protect against pre-erythrocytic malaria. Among the most promising approaches to induce such complex immunity are heterologous prime-boost vaccination regimens, in particular ones containing live viral vector. We have demonstrated previously that adenovectors serotype 35 (Ads35) encoding the circumsporozoite (CS) antigen or liver-stage antigen-1 (LSA-1) are highly effective in improving the T-cell responses induced by immunizations with protein-based vaccines in a heterologous prime-boost schedule. Here we evaluated the potential of a heterologous prime-boost vaccination that combines the Ad35. CS vector with the serologically distinct adenovector Ad5.CS, in rhesus macaques, after establishing the potency in mice. We show that the heterologous Ad35.CS/Ad5.CS prime-boost regimen elicits both antibody responses and robust IFN-gamma-producing CD8(+) T-cell responses against the CS antigen. Analysis of the quality of the antibody responses in rhesus macaques, using indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) with Plasmodium falciparum-coated slides, demonstrated that this heterologous prime-boost regimen elicits a high titer of antibodies that are able to bind to P. falciparum sporozoites. Aloe emodin of the IFA response was superior to the response measured with sera of an adult human population living in endemic malaria region. In conclusion, the combination of Ad35.CS, a vaccine based on a rare serotype adenovirus, with Ad5.CS or possibly another adenovector of a distinct serotype, induces a complex immune response that is required for protection against malaria, and is thus a highly promising approach for pediatric vaccination.(TM)-human serum albumin were examined by a radioimmunoassay inhibition technique. The antisera were from workers exposed to trimellitic anhydride who had 4 differing respiratory diseases. The studies demonstrated similarities between reactivities of antibodies of different Ig classes in these workers in that inhibition of antibody to TM-HSA required markedly less TM-HSA on a molar basis than TM-ovalbumin (OA) or sodium trimellitate (NaTM), the hapten for the trimellityl group. The results appears best explained by formation of new antigenic determinants on altered HSA molecules with the TM group forming a component of some of the new antigenic determinants. Aloe emodin in high concentration could not completely inhibit the IgG antibodies of 2 sera suggesting either very low affinity for the hapten or that some of the antibodies might possibly be directed against new antigenic determinants formed from the reaction of TMA with HSA but that the TM group might not be a part of the antigenic specificity.
