Mycobacterium ulcerans infection causes Buruli ulcer, a chronic and destructive necrotizing skin ulcer in humans. The symptoms of Buruli ulcer are mainly caused by unique toxic macrolides, named mycolactone. The suppression of Th 1 -type immune responses and inflammatory responses is caused by mycolactone in humans and animal models. However, the effects of mycolactone on serum immune responses remain unclear. In this study, we administered model antigens with partially purified mycolactone into mice to examine its effect on antibody production in serum. Mycolactone-containing fraction suppressed antibody production against co-administered antigens in a dose-dependent manner. The suppressive effect was not observed when the antigens and mycolactone preparation were injected into different sites. Additionally, the effect was demonstrated only against co-administered antigens. Moreover, mycolactone-containing fraction was considered safe even at doses ten times higher than the dose that suppressed the antibody responses, suggesting potential usefulness of mycolactone as a new immunoregulatory agent to specifically prevent antibody response against co-administered antigens.

“…Application of inorganic nanoparticles and their nanocomposites on textile materials have given a wide opportunity for antimicrobial and multifunctional modification of textiles. 7 In most of the research materials, TiO2, SiO2, and ZnO nanoparticles have been used to achieve antibacterial properties in textiles. An enhancement in the antibacterial property was found in the modified nano TiO2 treated cotton fabrics.…”

The antibacterial efficiency of nano TiO2, TiO2/SiO2, TiO2/ZnO and TiO2/SiO2/ZnO Nanocomposites coated on modal fabric using dip coating was evaluated using Fourier infrared spectroscopy, Transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and zone of inhibition against Bacillus subttilis. The particle size varies between 17.9 nm to 46.4 nm. The fabric treated with TiO2/SiO2/ZnO exhibited a maximum zone of inhibition of 53 mm followed by 47 mm and 43 mm for TiO2 and TiO2/ZnO treated fabrics respectively.TiO2/SiO2 treated fabric has shown a minimal zone of inhibition of 36 mm.
