Recombinant Invasive Lactococcus lactis Carrying a DNA Vaccine Coding the Ag85A Antigen Increases INF-γ, IL-6, and TNF-α Cytokines after Intranasal Immunization

Abstract: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major threat throughout the world and in 2015 it caused the death of 1.4 million people. The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin is the only existing vaccine against this ancient disease; however, it does not provide complete protection in adults. New vaccines against TB are eminently a global priority. The use of bacteria as vehicles for delivery of vaccine plasmids is a promising vaccination strategy. In this study, we evaluated the use of, an engineered invasive Lactococcus lactis (expressi… Show more

“…The surface display of enterocyte-targeting bacterial proteins by L. lactis resulted in delivery of DNA plasmids to enterocytes and protein secretion into the intestinal lumen. This is a potential alternative strategy of protein antigen delivery and could also be utilized to deliver DNA to promote secretion of anti-viral or bacterial peptides [98][99][100][101]. Another reported benefit of these bacterial vectors is the ability to outcompete pathogens at mucosal surfaces.…”

“…Targeting LAB though surface expression of enterocyte binding proteins has been explored with the non-invasive LAB, L. lactis, through the use of Listeria monocytogenes internalin A (InIA) and/or Staphylococcus aureus fibronectin binding protein A (FnBPA) [97][98][99][100][101]. InlA is a cell wall protein that allows L. monocytogenes to bind and be internalized by epithelial cells [110].…”

“…The potential biotechnological applications of this microorganism in the pharmaceutical drug production and the spectrum of possibilities it offers constitutes nowadays one of the most striking reasons for the investigation on L. lactis genetic manipulation ( Cano-Garrido et al, 2015 ). In particular, the use of L. lactis as a live non-invasive mucosal vaccine seems a promising alternative due to their GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status ( Miyoshi et al, 2002 ; Bermudez-Humaran et al, 2003 ; Foligne et al, 2007 ; Wells and Mercenier, 2008 ; Cano-Garrido et al, 2015 ; Kim et al, 2015 ; Mancha-Agresti et al, 2017 ).…”

“…L. lactis has been successfully employed to produce specific viral and bacterial antigens to cope infections or non-antigenic immunomodulatory proteins like cytokines or proteases to control infections or more complex inflammatory diseases such as the inflammatory bowel disease ( Miyoshi et al, 2002 ; Bermudez-Humaran et al, 2003 ; Foligne et al, 2007 ; Wells and Mercenier, 2008 ; Marelli et al, 2011 ; Cano-Garrido et al, 2015 ; Kim et al, 2015 ; Mancha-Agresti et al, 2017 ). Most importantly, it has been used for the expression and delivery of heterologous antigens to develop oral and mucosal vaccines ( Wells and Mercenier, 2008 ; Cano-Garrido et al, 2015 ).…”
