Immunization of mice with DNA coding for the variable regions of anti-idiotypic antibody generates antigen-specific response
چکیده انگلیسی

Understanding the mechanisms of generation and maintenance of immunological memory is crucial for rational vaccine design. A hypothesis known as relay hypothesis was earlier proposed which explains the maintenance of immunological memory through interaction of idiotypic and anti-idiotypic lymphocytes. In the present study, we have shown that immunization with rinderpest virus hemagglutinin protein specific anti-idiotypic antibody (Ab2vβ) DNAs coding for heavy and light chains generates antigen-specific antibody and T cell responses as well as Ab1 specific T cell response. We further show that boosting with the recombinant Ab2-vβ proteins generates B and T cell memory response specific for antigen in anti-id DNA primed mice. This study provides experimental evidence for perpetuation of immunological memory through idiotypic network interactions.
