pubmed:abstractText |
A candidate live-virus vaccine strain of Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEE) was configured as a replication-competent vector for in vivo expression of heterologous immunogens. Three features of VEE recommend it for use as a vaccine vector. (i) Most human and animal populations are not already immune to VEE, so preexisting immunity to the vector would not limit expression of the heterologous antigen. (ii) VEE replicates first in local lymphoid tissue, a site favoring the induction of an effective immune response. (iii) Parenteral immunization of rodents and humans with live, attenuated VEE vaccines protects against mucosal challenge, suggesting that VEE vaccine vectors might be used successfully to protect against mucosal pathogens. Upon subcutaneous (s.c.) inoculation into the footpad of mice, a VEE vector containing the complete influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) gene expressed HA in the draining lymph node and induced anti-HA immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA serum antibodies, the levels of which could be increased by s.c. booster inoculation. When immunized mice were challenged intranasally with a virulent strain of influenza virus, replication of challenge virus in their lungs was restricted, and they were completely protected from signs of disease. Significant reduction of influenza virus replication in the nasal epithelia of HA vector-immunized mice suggested an effective immunity at the mucosal surface. VEE vaccine vectors represent an alternative vaccination strategy when killed or subunit vaccines are ineffective or when the use of a live attenuated vaccine might be unsafe.
