Abstract

Immaturity of the neonatal immune system contributes to increased susceptibility to infectious diseases and poor vaccine responses. Therefore, better strategies for early life vaccination are needed. Adjuvants can enhance the magnitude and duration of immune responses. In this study we assessed the effects of the adjuvants dmLT and mmCT and different immunization routes, subcutaneous (s.c.) and intranasal (i.n.), on neonatal immune response to a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine Pn1-CRM. Pn1-specific antibody (Ab) levels of neonatal mice immunized with Pn1-CRM197 alone were low. The adjuvants enhanced IgG Ab responses up to 8 weeks after immunization, more after s.c. than i.n. immunization. On the contrary, i.n. immunization with either adjuvant enhanced serum and salivary IgA levels more than s.c. immunization. In addition, both dmLT and mmCT enhanced germinal center formation and accordingly, dmLT and mmCT enhanced the induction and persistence of Pn1-specific IgG Ab-secreting cells (ASCs) in spleen and bone marrow (BM), irrespective of the immunization route. Furthermore, i.n. immunization enhanced Pn1-specific IgA ASCs in BM more than s.c. immunizatiofimmu.2022.1078904n. However, a higher i.n. dose of the Pn1-CRM was needed to achieve IgG response comparable to that elicited by s.c. immunization with either adjuvant. We conclude that dmLT and mmCT enhance both induction and persistence of the neonatal immune response to the vaccine Pn1-CRM, following mucosal or parenteral immunization. This indicates that dmLT and mmCT are promising adjuvants for developing safe and effective early life vaccination strategies.

摘要

新生儿免疫系统的不成熟导致其对传染病的易感性增加和疫苗反应不良。因此,需要更好的早期生命疫苗接种策略。佐剂可以增强免疫反应的幅度和持续时间。在这项研究中,我们评估了佐剂 dmLT 和 mmCT 以及不同免疫途径(皮下(s.c.)和鼻内(i.n.))对新生儿对肺炎球菌结合疫苗 Pn1-CRM 的免疫反应的影响。单独用 Pn1-CRM197 免疫的新生小鼠的 Pn1 特异性抗体(Ab)水平较低。佐剂增强 IgG Ab 反应,直至免疫后 8 周,皮下免疫比鼻内免疫更明显。相反,鼻内免疫佐剂可增强血清和唾液 IgA 水平,比皮下免疫更明显。此外,dmLT 和 mmCT 均增强生发中心形成,因此,dmLT 和 mmCT 增强了 Pn1 特异性 IgG Ab 分泌细胞(ASC)在脾和骨髓(BM)中的诱导和持续存在,无论免疫途径如何。此外,鼻内免疫比皮下免疫更能增强 BM 中 Pn1 特异性 IgA ASC。然而,需要更高的 Pn1-CRM 鼻内剂量才能达到与皮下免疫用任何佐剂引起的 IgG 反应相当的水平。我们得出结论,dmLT 和 mmCT 增强了黏膜或肠外免疫接种后疫苗 Pn1-CRM 对新生儿免疫反应的诱导和持续。这表明 dmLT 和 mmCT 是开发安全有效的早期生命疫苗接种策略的有前途的佐剂。
