1. Como deve ser o esquema de imunizações em puérperas?
As vacinas recomendas a todas as gestantes são
:
A vacina dTpa é suficiente para proteção contra o tétano neonatal e difteria em gestantes com história prévia de vacinação de dupla toxóide tetânico e difteria (dT) completa (3 doses) ou que tenham recebido duas doses de dT previamente. Em casos de vacinação incompleta, com apenas u

2. Quality of horse F(ab′)2 antitoxins and antirabies immunoglobulins: protein content and anticomplementary activity
Abstract Background Among other applications, immunotherapy is used for the post-exposure treatment and/or prophylaxis of important infectious diseases, such as botulism, diphtheria, tetanus and rabies. The effectiveness of serum therapy is widely proven, but improvements on the immunoglobulin purification process and on the quality control are necessary to

3. Vaccination coverage in a cohort of HIV-infected patients receiving care at an AIDS outpatient clinic in Espírito Santo, Brazil
Abstract This cross-sectional study assessed the immunization status of human immune deficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients receiving care at an outpatient clinic in Brazil. The sociodemographic characteristics, CD4 count and HIV viral load of 281 out of 612 adult outpatients were analyzed. A total of 331 patients were excluded because of no availability o

4. Corynebacterium diphtheriae putative tellurite-resistance protein (CDCE8392_0813) contributes to the intracellular survival in human epithelial cells and lethality of Caenorhabditis elegans
Corynebacterium diphtheriae, the aetiologic agent of diphtheria, also represents a global medical challenge because of the existence of invasive strains as causative agents of systemic infections. Although tellurite (TeO32-) is toxic to most microorganisms, TeO32--resistant bacteria, including C. diphtheriae, exist in nature. The presence of TeO32--resistanc

5. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction to identify and determine the toxigenicity of Corynebacterium spp with zoonotic potential and an overview of human and animal infections
Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis constitute a group of potentially toxigenic microorganisms that are related to different infectious processes in animal and human hosts. Currently, there is a lack of information on the prevalence of disease caused by these pathogens, which is partially due to a red

6. Short-term and long-term antibody response by mice after immunization against Neisseria meningitidis B or diphtheria toxoid
Serogroup B Neisseria meningitidis (MenB) is a major cause of invasive disease in early childhood worldwide. The only MenB vaccine available in Brazil was produced in Cuba and has shown unsatisfactory efficacy when used to immunize millions of children in Brazil. In the present study, we compared the specific functional antibody responses evoked by the Cuban

7. Influência de pré-tratamentos de células epiteliais com penicilina e eritromicina na aderência e na viabilidade intracelular de Corynebacterium diphtheriae / Influence of epithelial cells pre-treatment with penicilin and erythromycin in adherence and intracellular viability of Corynebacterium diphtheriae
Diphtheria is a syndrome caused by Toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Although immunization programs have kept diphtheria under control in the great majority of developed countries, the disease remains endemic in many parts of the world, especially in individuals partially immunized to diphtheria toxoid. Additionally, an increase in the number of cases o

8. Diphtheria Antibodies and T lymphocyte Counts in Patients Infected with HIV-1
We assessed the IgG levels anti-diphtheria (D-Ab) and T cell counts (CD4+ and CD8+) in HIV-1 infected subjects undergoing or not highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Approximately 70% of all HIV-1 patients were unprotected against diphtheria. There were no differences in D-Ab according to CD4 counts. Untreated patients had higher D-Ab (geometric mea

9. Análise microbiológica e imunológica de lesões refratárias ao tratamento endondôntico
Introdução: Falhas no tratamento endodôntico são geralmente causadas pela persistência de microorganismos no sistema de canais radiculares mesmo após o tratamento endodôntico. Quando o tratamento falha, uma resposta imunológica caracterizada pela produção de citocinas e quimiocinas é arquitetada. Objetivos: Avaliar o perfil microbiológico de amos

10. Enhanced inhibition of murine prostatic carcinoma growth by immunization with or administration of viable human umbilical vein endothelial cells and CRM197
Vaccination with xenogeneic and syngeneic endothelial cells is effective for inhibiting tumor growth. Nontoxic diphtheria toxin (CRM197), as an immunogen or as a specific inhibitor of heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor, has shown promising antitumor activity. Therefore, immunization with or administration of viable human umbilical vein endothelial cells

11. Papel das hemaglutininas 67-72p de Corynebacterium diphtheriae na ligação a proteínas plasmáticas, superfícies celulares, invasão e indução de apoptose / Participation of hemagglutinin 67-72p of corynebacterium diphtheriae in binding to plasma proteins, cells surfaces, invasion and induction of apoptosis
Corynebacterium diphtheriae pode ser isolado tanto de quadros de difteria clássica, quanto de infecções sistêmicas, como endocardite. O fibrinogênio (Fbn) e a fibronectina (Fn) são glicoproteínas presentes na matriz extracelular de tecidos conjuntivos. A influência destas proteínas na patogênese das infecções locais e invasivas causadas por C. di

12. Fibrinogen binds to nontoxigenic and toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains
The production of fibrinous exudates may play an important role in determining the outcome of bacterial infection. Although pseudomembrane formation is a characteristic feature of diphtheria, little is known about the fibrinogen (Fbn)-binding properties of Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains and the influence of the gene that codes for diphtheria toxin (tox
