Sublingual (SL) immunization against infectious agents or bacterial toxins is not a common route for antigen delivery. However, in our continued search for a needle-free platform for vaccine administration, we evaluated the efficacy of SL immunization with Bacillus subtilis engineered to express tetanus toxin fragment C (TTFC). We compared the results obtained with those for intranasal (IN) immunization...
Bacillus subtilis strains expressing tetanus toxin fragment C (TTFC) were tested as vaccine candidates against tetanus in adult mice. Mice received three intranasal (IN) exposures to 10 9 spores or 10 8 vegetative cells of B. subtilis expressing recombinant TTFC. Immunized mice generated protective systemic and mucosal antibodies and survived challenge with 2× LD 100 of tetanus...
Because of the high failure rate of antibiotic treatment in patients with anthrax there is a need for additional therapies such as passive immunization with therapeutic antibodies. In this study, we used codon-optimized plasmid DNAs (DNA vaccines) encoding Bacillus anthracis protective antigen (PA) to immunize rabbits for producing anti-anthrax antibodies for use in passive immunotherapy. The antisera...
The first DNA vaccines for prevention of infectious diseases were described in 1993 and have since been shown to generate protective humoral and cellular immune responses to numerous infectious agents. For enteric infections, protective immunity has been obtained with DNA vaccines against several enteric viral, bacterial, and parasitic agents. Inoculation of DNA vaccines has generally been by intramuscular...
A live rotavirus prime/DNA boost vaccine regimen was evaluated in a gnotobiotic pig model for human rotavirus (HRV) diarrhea. Plasmid DNA expressing rotavirus inner capsid VP6 was administered to pigs intramuscularly (IM) twice after oral priming with attenuated (Att) Wa strain HRV (AttHRV/VP6DNA2x). Other groups included: (1) VP6 DNA IM 2x then AttHRV orally (VP6DNA2x/AttHRV); (2) VP6 DNA IM 3x (VP6DNA3x)...
Intramuscular (i.m.) injection of murine VP6 DNA vaccines raised high titers of rotavirus-specific serum IgG and IgA antibodies in BALB/c mice. A Th1-like antibody response was generated based on the ratio of serum IgG2a to IgG1 antibodies. Rotavirus-specific serum IgA but not fecal IgA was detected in mice prior to rotavirus challenge. Partial protection against rotavirus challenge was achieved as...
We have previously shown that gene-gun delivery of murine rotavirus DNA vaccines to the epidermis induced protection against rotavirus challenge in mice. In this study, we used a rotavirus group antigen (VP6)-specific DNA vaccine to compare epidermal immunization with immunization to the anorectal epithelium for efficacy in inducing protective immunity. The vaccine was administered into cells of the...
It is estimated that Group A rotavirus diarrhea causes as many as one million deaths per year in children worldwide, and effective vaccines will be essential for their control. Plasmid DNA vaccines encoding murine rotaviral proteins VP4, VP6, or VP7 were tested in adult BALB/c mice for their ability to induce immune responses and provide protection against rotavirus challenge. The vaccines were...
