Porcine circovirus-2 (PCV2) 는 돼지에서 여러 형태의 질병과 증후군의 발생과 관련이 되어있어 현재는 PCV-associated diseases (PCVAD)로 총괄적으로 분류된다. PCVAD에 의한 높은 경제적 손실 때문에 많은 양돈장들이 PCV2의 감염을 확인하기 위하여 혈청을 검사하고 있다. 하지만, 기존의 혈액채취법은 비용이 높고 많은 인력이 소요되므로 큰 규모의 병원체 검사에는 어려움이 있었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 혈액채취법을 이용한 돈군의 PCV2 검사법에 대한 대체방법으로 돈방 단위의 구강액채취법의 유용성을 실제 농장에서 평가하였다. 세 곳의 다른 양돈 농장들에서 각각 6개의 25두 규모의 돈방들을 선정하여 생후 3, 5, 8, 12, 16주에 돈방 마다 하나의 구강액과 5개의 혈청을 채취하였다. 모든 시료들은 real-time PCR을 이용하여 PCV2 DNA를 검사하였고 IgG 또는 IgA 간접형광항체 검사법및 세 가지의 ELISA 검사법 (blocking ELISA, indirect ELISA, and IgG/IgM sandwich ELISA)을 이용하여 PCV2에 대한 항체를 검사하였다. 구강액에서 PCV2 DNA는 8주까지는 간헐적으로 검출이 되다가 16주에는 모든 돈방에서 검출이 되었으며, 모체유래 PCV2 특이 IgG는 3주부터 검출이 되었고 모든 농장에서 5-8주까지 지속이 되었다. 16주에는 한 농장 (Site 1)의 모든 돈방에서 감염에 의한 IgG와 IgA가 검출되었다. 혈청에서의 PCV2 DNA와 PCV2 항체의 검출은 구강액에서의 검출과 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 따라서 구강액은 돈군의 PCV2 감염을 모니터링 하기 위해 혈청대신 사용할 수 있는 저비용, 고효율의 시료가 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The levels of the serum and colostral total protein and immunoglobulins of the Korean native cows immediately after parturition and colostrum-conferred passive immune status of the Korean native calves were studied, and the results obtained were summerized as follows: The mean total protein, total immunoglobulin, IgG, IgM, and IgA concentrations in sera of 10 Korean native cows immediately after parturition were $6.8{\pm}0.4g/dl$, $24.39{\pm}3.41mg/ml$, $19.49{\pm}2.70mg/ml$, $4.56{\pm}1.14mh/ml$, and $0.35{\pm}0.08mg/ml$ respectively. And the mean total protein, total immunoglobulin, IgG, IgM, and IgA concentrations in colostrum were $15.0{\pm}1.1g/dl$, $116.13{\pm}23.07mg/ml$, $101.51{\pm}22.59mg/ml$, $9.46{\pm}1.99mg/ml$, and $5.17{\pm}1.59mg/ml$ respectively. The mean concentrations of total protein and immunoglobulins in colostrum were 2.1 times to 14.8 times higher than those in serum. The mean concentrations of total protein, total immunoglobuln, IgG, IgM, and IgA in sera from 211 Korean native calves at 2 days old were $6.7{\pm}0.9g/dl$, $35.74{\pm}9.56mg/ml$, $29.06{\pm}8.07mg/ml$, $4.91{\pm}2.99mg/ml$, and $1,9{\pm}0.99mg/ml$ respectively. Although the calves had been suckled the dam's colostrum, each of calves was considerably various in levels of serum total protein and immunoglobulins and 16.1 percent of the calves were in a state of hypoglobulinemia.

Recently, we demonstrated that human serum amyloid P component (SAP) specifically recognizes exposed bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN) of wall teichoic acid (WTA)-deficient Staphylococcus aureus ${\Delta}$tagO mutant cells and then induces complement-independent phagocytosis. In our preliminary experiments, we found the existence of human serum immunoglobulins that recognize S. aureus PGN (anti-PGNIgGs), which may be involved in complement-dependent opsonophagocytosis against infected S. aureus cells. We assumed that purified serum anti-PGN-IgGs and S. aureus ${\Delta}$tagO mutant cells are good tools to study the molecular mechanism of anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis. Therefore, we tried to identify the intracellular molecule(s) that is involved in the anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis using purified human serum anti-PGN-IgGs and different S. aureus mutant cells. Here, we show that anti-PGN-IgG-mediated phagocytosis in phorbol myristate acetate-treated U937 cells is mediated by $Ca^{2+}$ release from intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ stores and anti-PGN-IgGdependent $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization is controlled via a phospholipase C${\gamma}$-2-mediated pathway.

Specific polyclonal and/or monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to immunoglobulins (Igs) and their subunits have proved to be valuable tools in immunological research and in immunological assays. In this study, we developed and characterized MAbs against flounder serum Igs. To obtain the pure flounder serum Igs, mouse IgG (mIgG) was immunized to flounder. Flounder Igs were purified by using mIgG-agarose affinity column chromatography. The structure of purified flounder Ig was observed, on denatured SDS-PAGE, to be composed of two heavy chains (77 and 72 kd) and two light chains (28 and 26 kd). MAbs were produced by fusion of myeloma cells (SP2/0) with Balb/c mouse spleen cells previously primed with the flounder Igs. Finally, three hybridoma clones, FIM 511, FIM 519 and FIM 562 were established to recognize both 2 heavy chains, 26 kd of light chain and 28 kd of light chain, respectively. On the other hand, the flounder immune sera collected on the weekly basis were tested on ELISA and immunoblot analysis whether boosting effect is present in flounder humoral immune system. As a result, the secondary immune response in flounder was ascertained on ELISA, but not on immunoblot analysis. Further, we observed an alteration of serum protein levels following immunization. Our MAbs and basic information on flounder humoral immune system obtained in this study will be helpful to control and monitor the efficiency of fish vaccines and therapeutic process of flounder diseases.

We have compared and investigated the detection capabilities of antibody of immunoglobulin G(anti-IgG) immobilized by protein G and N-hydroxysuccinimide(NHS) at the end of the self-assembled monolayer(SAM). Surface plasmon resonance(SPR) sensor has been utilized to measure the interaction between biomolecules. After formation of the protein G and SAM, anti-IgG, bovine serum albumin(BSA) and IgG has been sequently injected. Through the reponse of the SPR, we can conclude that the protein G immobilized anti-IgG better than the SAM. In addition, IgG detection capability of the anti-IgG immobilized by the protein G showed better performance compared with that immobilized by the SAM.

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is a causative agent for a number of extra intestinal diseases and account for significant losses to the poultry industry. Since protective immunity against APEC is largely directed to virulence antigens, we have individually expressed four different viulence antigens, papA, papG, IutA, and CS31A, using an attenuated Salmonella Typhimurium and a plasmid pBB244. Following oral immunization of mice with combination of two or four of these strains, serum IgG and mucosal IgA responses were elicited against each antigen represented in the mixture. The antigen-specific mucosal IgA responses were significantly higher in the group of mice immunized with the heat-labile Escherichia coli enterotoxin B subunit (LTB) strain than those in the group of mice immunized without the LTB strain. While, there was no significant difference between these two groups in antigen-specific serum IgG responses. The results showed that LTB could act as mucosal immune adjuvant. To assess the nature of immunity, the distribution of antigen-specific IgG isotypes was analyzed. All groups promoted Th1-type immunity as determined by the IgG2a/IgG1 ratio. Thus, our findings provided evidence that immunization with a combination of several vaccine strains is one of the strategies of developing effective vaccines against APEC.

This study was performed to investigate the immunopotentiative effects of conjugated linoleic acid on mice immunosuppressed by administratin corticoids. Mice were divided into four groups of 8 mice. Two groups (C, CP) were given diet supplemented with 1% linoleic acid (CLA) and the other two groups (L, LP) were given diet supplemented with 1% linoleic acid (LA) instead of CLA. Prednison was administered to two groups (CP, LP) for immune depression. After feeding diets for 3 weeks containing PDS injection for last 1 week. Serum and gut lumen lavage were taken. Measurement of total Ig were executed using sandwich ELISA. Serum levels of IgA, IgG, and IgM showed some trend which groups fed with CLA were higher than groups fed with LA while IgE was reduced in those fed the CLA intake, and groups administered with PDS were lower than groups administered with saline. However, no significant differences were seen in the proportion of total immunoglobulin in serum. In case of secretory IgA, Group C and CP were significantly higher than group L and LP. Especially between CP and LP, it can be seen effects of CLA. In addition that the CLA treated group weighted a significantly lower level than the one's that have not been treated with CLA. These result support the view that CLA potentiate the immune response and prevent immune depression caused by administrating of corticoids. In conclusion, CLA produced a situation favorable for immunopotentiative effects. Thus, the clinical application of CLA is warranted.

The changes in serum total protein and immunoglobulin levels, and BVD, IBR and PI-3 viral neutralizing antibody titers in colostrum-conferred Korean native calves during the first 12 weeks postpartum were studied, and the results obtained were summerized as follows: The Mean concentration of total protein, total immunoglobulin, IgG, IgM and IgA in sera of 9 calves at birth were $3.8{\pm}0.5g/dl$, $0.27{\pm}0.15mg/ml$, $0.06{\pm}0.08mg/ml$, $0.21{\pm}0.11mg/ml$, and extremely low concentration, respectively. Serum total protein level reached a maximum at 20 hours after birth, total immunoglobulin, IgG, and IgM levels at 24 hours, and IgA level at 28 hours, respectively. Serum IgA level reached a minimum at 4 weeks old, IgM level at 5 weeks, total immunoglobulin level at 8 weeks, and IgG level at 10 weeks, respectively. After then those levels had begun to increase, but total protein level was still decreasing at 12 weeks old. The half-lives of IgG, IgM, and IgA were 21.1 days, 4.0 days, and 2.6 days-respectively. In 10 Korean native cows immediately after parturition, serum neutralizing antibody titers specific to BVD, IBR and PI-3 virus were $8.7{\pm}1.5{\log}_2$, $5.7{\pm}1.2{\log}_2$, and $6.8{\pm}1.01{\log}_2$, respectively. And colostral neutralizing antibody titers against BVD, IBR, and PI-3 virus were $10.1{\pm}1.4{\log}_2$, $6.8{\pm}1.3{\log}_2$ and $7.8{\pm}1.7{\log}_2$, respectively. Before suckling the colostrum, SN antibody titers against BVD, IBR, and PI-3 virus were undetectable from all of 9 Korean native calves. Nevertheless SN antibody titer against BVD virus reached a maximum level ($9.2{\pm}0.6{\log}_2$) at 24 hours after birth, that against IBR virus ($6.1{\pm}1.0{\log}_2$) at 20 hours after birth, and that against PI-3 virus ($6.8{\pm}0.9{\log}_2$) at 32 hours after birth, respectively. In 12 weeks old calves, the SN antibodies against BVD and IBR virus were still decreasing, but that against PI-3 virus reached a minimum at 10 weeks, and increased after 12 weeks of age. The half-lives of SN antibodies against BVD, PI-3 and IBR, virus were 16.0 days, 22.6 days, and 25.5 days, respectively.
