Abstract:
This study was carried out during the period from October 2013 to September 2014. Salmonella typhi Samples were obtained from the Central Health Laboratory for the purpose of purification capsular polysaccharide antigen (Vi Ag). Capsular polysaccharide antigen was loaded on chitosan nanoparticle and tetanus toxoid. Recorded results showed that the antibody titers in (T1) Vi Ag + chitosan groups(620.8±364.8) were increased significantly than other groups, it included (T2) Vi Ag group (448±117.73), (T3) Vi + Tetanus toxoid group (537.6±142.53) and (T4) Vi Ag+ Ch. +TT group (121.6±38.4) at (P? 0.05).The documented results of total and differential WBCs counts were showed a significant increment in group (T1) (21020 ± 891.85 cell/1ml) compared with the control group (C) (5500 ± 230.94 cell/1ml) and other groups, it included (T3) group (10740 ± 980.61 cell/1ml), (T4) group (10650 ± 1217.78 cell/1ml) and (T2) group (9980 ± 572.18 cell/1ml) at (p? 0.05). on the other hand, the results of differential count showed elevation in percentage of neutrophils in group (T2) (40 ± 1.89%) compared with the control group (C) (33.3333 ± 0.66%) and other group, it included a (T3) group (33.6 ± 0.67%), (T4) group (34 ± 1.37%) and (T1) group (19.4 ± 0.66%) at (p? 0.05). Results also showed an increase in lymphocytes in the group (T1) (79.2 ± 2.7%) compared with the control group (58.3333 ± 1.76%) and other group, it included (T4) group (62 ± 2.06%), (T3) group (61.2 ± 2.72%) and (T2) group (55.8 ± 1.11%) at (p? 0.05).Also The study included determination the level of gene expression of two clusters of differentiation, CD25 and CD29 gene expression by RT - qPCR. The results of relative gene expression in CD25 gene showed in T4 (5.1936±2.17) were increased significantly than other groups, it included T1 (2.5604±0.64), T2 (3.7032±0.54) and T3 (4.4739±1) at (P? 0.05). The results of relative gene expression in CD29 gene which showed T3 (162.3256±89.52), increased significantly than other groups, it included T1 (33.8276±16.6), T2 (59.6817±26.65), and T4 (37.9605±3.09) at (P? 0.05).This findings were supported by the increment activity determined in lymph nodes of spleen & thymus which increased in size and numbers with active germinal centers. The overall results indicated that the use of chitosan nano particles and tetanus toxoid can enhance and improve the immune response against a given vaccines.
