Humoral Immune Response to Lipopolysaccharide Antigens of Campylobacter jejuni
Abstract
Campylobacter jejuni and the closely related organism Campylobacter coli have been established as among the most common bacterial causes of acute diarrheal disease of humans in developed and developing countries (5.8). A wide variety of mammalian and avian species also are infected by those organisms and thus represent an important reservoir for transmission to humans. Development of vaccines against these organisms would therefore be worthwhile, but knowledge of their antigens is rudimentary.
