In the course of the work presented in this thesis, the construction of solid matrix-antibody-antigen (SMAA) complexes as vaccines was further developed.

In order to facilitate the purification of recombinant proteins for immunization purposes, a second affinity tag was attached to the antigen N-termini.

Therefore, two approaches, intracellular drug delivery and immunostimulation, have been explored in this dissertation, with an aim to develop a better therapeutic against Brucella infection in mice.

African horse sickness (AHS) is a lethal disease of horses. The aetiological agent is African horsesickness virus (AHSV) (genus Orbivirus; family: Reoviridae). Immunity to all nine serotypes is needed for full protection. The AHSV virion is composed of seven structural proteins and 10 dsRNA genes. The outer capsid protein, VP2, determines the serotype and elicits protective neutralising antibodies (NAbs). The existing polyvalent attenuated vaccine has some drawbacks. The most important ones are the exclusion of serotypes 5 and 9. Also, vaccinated and naturally infected horses cannot be differe

博士<br>國立中山大學<br>生物科學系研究所<br>92<br>IV 英文摘要 SAG1 and SAG2 are important surface molecules of T. gondii for the invasion of tachyzoites into host-cells. Previous studies have been demonstrated they are good candidates for development of vaccines against toxoplasmosis. Therefore, we used SAG1 and SAG2 to generate subunit vaccines and evaluated the protective capacity in BALB/c mice. Anti-idiotype IgG (aId-IgG) with the SAG2 internal image was prepared from anti-SAG2 monoclonal antibody in accordance with the network theory. Lymphocytes from mice immunized subcutaneously twice with 2, 4 or 8 µg aId

Abstract:
博士<br>國立中興大學<br>獸醫學系<br>94<br>In this study, three recombinant subunit Pasteurella multocida toxins (rsPMTs) were constructed and expressed successfully. These rsPMTs were non-toxic both in mice and swine and could induce PMT-specific antibody-secreting cells and cellular immunity in spleen. The rsPMT-immunized mice could survive the lethal dose challenge of authentic PMT, and the PMT-specific antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) increased significantly. In addition, immunized piglets generated higher neutralizing antibody titers after authentic PMT challenge or homologous antigen boost. Furthermor
