Abstract
There is an urgent need for vaccines against Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the causative agent of gonorrhea. Vaccination with an outer membrane vesicle-based Neisseria meningitidis vaccine provides some protection from N. gonorrhoeae; however, the mechanisms underlying this cross-protection are unknown. To address this need, we developed multiplexed bead-based assays for the relative quantification of human and mouse IgG and IgA against N gonorrhoeae antigens. The assays were evaluated for analyte independence, dilutional linearity, specificity, sensitivity, intra- and interassay variability, and robustness to sample storage conditions. The assay was then used to test samples from mice and humans immunized with an N meningitidis outer membrane vesicle vaccine.
