Preparation of porcine enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) ghosts and immunogenic analysis in a mouse model.

Abstract:

:Enterotoxignenic Escherichia coli (ETEC)-associated colibacillosis causes high levels of morbidity and mortality in neonatal piglets. Vaccination is among effective strategy to fight against ETEC-related diseases. Bacterial ghosts (BGs) are empty bacterial envelopes, which substain subtle antigenic comformation in bacterial outer membrane. In this study, a BG vaccine was generated using porcine ETEC isolated strain DQ061 and evaluated its safety and immunogenicity in a mouse model. The recombinant bacteria were constructed by transformation of lysis plasmid pHH43 and generation of BGs was conducted in a lysis rate of 99.93% by incubation of the recombinant bacteria at 42 °C for 2 h. Mice were immunized subcutaneously twice in 2-week intervals with BGs, BGs emulsified with ISA 206 adjuvant, or formalin-inactivated ETEC vaccine after safety test. Mice with either of two BG vaccines developed higher titer of antibodies, secreted higher titer of interleukin 4, gamma interferon and alpha tumor necrosis factor after 2 doses than those with formalin-inactivated ETEC vaccine or those with adjuvant placebo (P < 0.01). The quantity of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte in spleen was higher in both BG groups than that in the inactivated vaccine group or adjuvant group 2 weeks post boost immunization (P < 0.05). The vaccinated mice were challenged intraperitoneally with 10 × LD50 dose of DQ061. Mice with the BGs plus adjuvant were completely protected against challenge, compared to 60% protection of mice with the inactivated vaccine. Mice exhibited decreased tissue lesion and reduced bacterial loads in the BGs groups by comparison with those with the inactivated vaccine or adjuvant only. Our results validated that the ETEC BGs bear high safety and immunogenicity in a mouse model, suggesting a potential of further evaluation in a pig model.
