he use of outer membrane vesicles as antigen for vaccination against
Bordetella pertussis seems an attractive option since these vesicles harbor
an important number of different bacterial antigens, including all the
vaccinal antigens used for acellular commercial vaccines in the membrane
context, hence in their native state. In an effort to devise a safer and effective pertussis
acelullar vaccine, outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) were engineered to decrease
their endotoxicity. The pagL gene from Bordetella bronchiseptica, which
encodes a lipid A 3-deacylase, was expressed in B. pertussis strain Tohama I.
The resulting OMVs, designated OMVsPagL, contain tetra- instead of
penta-acylated LPS, in addition to pertussis surface immunogens such as
pertactin and pertussis toxin, as the wild type OMVs. The characterized
pertussis OMVsPagL were used in murine B. pertussis intranasal (i.n.)
challenge model to examine their protective capacity when delivered by i.n
routes. Immunized BALB/c mice were challenged with sublethal doses of B.
pertussis. Significant differences between immunized animals and the PBS
treated group were observed (p < 0.001). Adequate elimination rates (p
< 0.005) were observed in mice immunized either with OMVsPagL and wild
type OMVs. All OMV preparations tested were non toxic according to WHO
criteria; however, OMVsPagL displayed almost no weight loss at 3 days post
administration, indicating less toxicity when compared with wild type OMVs.
Induction of IL6 (177,40 ± 1,09 vs 193,39
± 1,47fold increase) and IL1 (10,51±4,98 vs 17,70 ± 3,70 fold increase)
expression in lung after i.n. delivery showed coincident results, with a
lower induction of the proinflammatory cytokines in the case of OMVsPagL
compared to wild type OMVs.
In view to their lower endotoxic activity and retained
protective capacity in the mouse model, OMVsPagL obtained from B pertussis are
candidates for novel vaccines against pertussis.
