The feasibility of using oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) containing unmethylated CpG motifs as parenteral adjuvants for subunit vaccines against RSV was tested in BALB/c mice. Compared with immunization with natural F protein adsorbed to aluminum hydroxide (F/AlOH) adjuvant alone, coadministration of F/AlOH with CpG ODN resulted in statistically significant increases in serum neutralization titers, an enhanced generation of splenic antigen-dependent killer cell precursors, and accelerated clearance of infectious virus from lungs 4 days after challenge. The statistically significant increases in serum IFNgamma and anti-F protein IgG2a titers, and significantly diminished pulmonary IL-5 and eosinophilia after challenge indicated that CpG ODN enhanced the ability of F/AlOH to elicit type 1 immune responses. F protein-specific serum IgE titers were also reduced. Further analysis of pulmonary inflammatory cells demonstrated an expansion of CD8(+) T cells, relative to the CD4(+) T cell compartment. The potency of CpG ODN was not adversely affected in gene knockout mice devoid of the p35 chain of the IL-12 heterodimer. Taken together, the results suggest a novel formulation for naïve recipients of F protein-based subunit vaccines that does not result in a type 2 phenotype.
