Oral delivery of DNA vaccines using attenuatedSalmonella typhimuriumas carrier

Abstract: The efficacious delivery of eukaryotic expression plasmids to inductive cells of the immune system constitutes a key prerequisite for the generation of effective DNA vaccines. Here, we have explored the use of bacteria as vehicles to orally deliver expression plasmids. Attenuated Salmonella typhimurium aroA harbouring eukaryotic expression plasmids that encoded virulence factors of Listeria monocytogenes were administered orally to BALB/c mice. Strong cytotoxic and helper T cell responses as well as antibody p… Show more

“…Similar effects were found when Salmonella was used for oral vaccination. Both, humoral and cellular antigen-specific immunity were confirmed in several mouse strains (79,80). Beyond immunological reasons bacteria-mediated DNA vaccination is usable also due to relatively cheap production costs.…”

“…Strategies aimed to elicit optimized effector CD8 + T cell response, in a way that single antigen-specific clones may present multiple effector functions and differentiate to longlived memory T cells, have been proposed (35). Among such strategies, the use of intracellular infectious bacteria carrying single or multiple therapeutic proteins holds promise (36,37). In fact, it has been previously reported that recombinant L. monocytogenes carrying the ovalbumin gene (LM-OVA) induces strong OVA-specific CD8 + T cell response and protects mice against B16-OVA melanoma cell line (38).…”

“…A DNA delivery system has the advantage, over traditional naked DNA vaccination, that bacteria protect the DNA vaccine from the environment until it reaches the macrophages, where the Salmonella is disrupted, releasing its intracellular plasmid cargo and enabling expression of the recombinant protein by the eukaryotic cell machinery. It was previously shown that oral immunization with this system is able to induce specific antibody and cellular responses, with Th1 and CD8 ϩ cell activation, as well as specific mucosal immunity (40)(41)(42).…”
