Abstract:
Haemophilus influenzae is an opportunistic pathogen that forms part of the human nasopharyngeal microbiota. This microorganism is classified into encapsulated and nonencapsulated or nontypeable (NTHi) isolates, depending on the presence of a polysaccharide capsule. Although H. influenzae is a common respiratory commensal, it is also able to cause several infections, especially in patients with comorbidities. The most common respiratory infections in which H. influenzae can be identified as the main etiological agent are exacerbations in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD

Abstract:
Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzas (NTHi) is recognised as a significant human pathogen causing mild to severe respiratory tract infections. At present, no vaccine is available for prevention of infection caused by this pathogen. Several outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of NTHi and its lipooligosaccharide have been investigated as possible vaccine antigens against NTHi infections. Previous investigations in our laboratory have shown that OMP26 from an NTHi 289 strain was able to significantly enhance pulmonary clearance of NTHi in a rat model in which animals were immunised via intestinal Peyer'

Abstract:
Pulmonary infection caused by nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in both industrialised and developing countries. Previous work from this group resulted in the development of a respiratory model in rodents which has precipitated studies into the pathogenesis of infection by NTHi and investigation of the humoral and cellular mechanisms by which the bacteria are cleared from the lung. Comparison of mucosally immunised with non-immunised animals has demonstrated that not only are bacteria cleared more rapidly from the lungs, but there is a

Abstract:
One of the major challenges of vaccine development is the conservation of immunogenicity and protective efficacy through the stages of design, production, formulation and delivery. The critical issue is that how and in what form an antigen is taken up by antigen presenting cells for proteolytic processing and presentation to the immune system bound to MHC can have dramatic effects on the activation of Th cells to drive clonal responses and induction of immunological memory. Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a pathogenic commensal of the human respiratory tract that causes diseases w

Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a Gram negative, non-capsulated coccobacillus commensal of the nasopharyngeal tract. Acting as an opportunistic pathogen is responsible for different pathologies such as exacerbation of COPD, Otitis Media and in worst cases meningitis and sepsis. Given the great genetic variability among NTHi strains, the greatest challenge in the formulation of a vaccine against NTHi is the identification of cross protective antigens. Under the Novartis legacy (now GSK), several antigens were identified thanks to a reverse vaccinology and proteomic approaches. The

Abstract:
Heterogeneity in immunodominant outer membrane proteins has been proposed as a significant factor in the failure of an NTHi infection to induce immune protection against subsequent infections. This study has examined the vaccine potential of three outer membrane proteins in an attempt to identify conserved regions that could be targeted by an immune response after vaccination. The three proteins investigated were: TbpB, P5 and P48 (HI0164). The optimal route of immunisation in clearing a bolus inoculum of NTHi to the lung in the rat has been shown to be a combination of gut sensitisation with
