Utility of serological markers in inflammatory bowel diseases: Gadget or magic? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The panel of serologic markers for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is rapidly expanding. Although anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) and atypical perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (P-ANCA) remain the most widely ...

Synthetic carbohydrate-based vaccines: challenges and opportunities

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2020
Glycoconjugate vaccines based on bacterial capsular polysaccharides (CPS) have been extremely successful in preventing bacterial infections. The glycan antigens for the preparation of CPS based glycoconjugate vaccines are mainly obtained from bacterial ...

Bacterial Spore Antigens: a Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1962
SUMMARY: Agglutinogens and precipitinogens have been detected in the spores of many species of aerobic and anaerobic spore-formers and these antigens are distinct from those of the vegetative growth phases of the corresponding organisms. Spore antigens are heat resistant and antibody response is elicited by the injection of autoclaved spores into ...

Outer membrane protein size and LPS O-antigen define protective antibody targeting to the Salmonella surface

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The O-antigen of LPS is known to limit the binding of antibody to bacterial surface antigens. Here the AUs show that the chemical and physical structure of the O-antigen are central factors in limiting the exposure of surface antigens to antibodies ...
