[Experimental, clinical and immunologic assessment of acellular staphylococcal vaccine "Staphylovac"].
Results of experimental, clinical and immunological effects of acellular dry staphylococcal vaccine "Staphylovac" developed in Mechnikov Research Institute of Vaccines and Sera are presented. Original mildly virulent strains of Staphylococcus aureus having high immunogenicity, and intra- and interspecies protective activity against different representatives of opportunistic microflora were used for construction of the preparation. Low-toxicity and weak anapylactogenicity of the vaccine were established. In experiments on mice, guinea pigs and rabbits significant protective, antigenic and immunomodulate activity of the preparation was revealed with low sensitization of animals. Clinical trials performed in different centers showed that inclusion of vaccinotherapy in complex treatment of chronic staphylococcal infections (chronic pyodermia, lung abscess etc.) resulted in prolonged pathologic locus, decrease of number and severity of exacerbations, prolongation of remission, and complete recovery in significant number of patients. Activation of innate and adaptive immunity was revealed in the same patients. It was shown on the large group of athletes that administration of the vaccine by aerosol route prevents disruption of immunologic adaptation occurring due to excess physical activity and stress situations during competitions.
