Effect of oral immunization with Pseudomonas aeruginosa on the development of specific antibacterial immunity in the lungs.

Infection and Immunity

Abstract

Oral administration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to rats elicited a systemic and mucosal antibody response in the intestinal and respiratory tracts. The antibody response did not influence the course of the disease when immunized animals were subsequently challenged by the introduction of viable bacteria into the lungs.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.
