Cimolai N. Non-primate animal models for pertussis: back to the drawing board? Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:1383-1398. [PMID: 35103810 PMCID: PMC8803574 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-022-11798-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Abstract Despite considerable progress in the understanding of clinical pertussis, the contemporary emergence of antimicrobial resistance for Bordetella pertussis and an evolution of concerns with acellular component vaccination have both sparked a renewed interest. Although simian models of infection best correlate with the observed attributes of human infection, several animal models have been used for decades and have positively contributed in many ways to the related science. Nevertheless, there is yet the lack of a reliable small animal model system that mimics the combination of infection genesis, variable upper and lower respiratory infection, systemic effects, infection resolution, and vaccine responses. This narrative review examines the history and attributes of non-primate animal models for pertussis and places context with the current use and needs. Emerging from the latter is the necessity for further such study to better create the optimal model of infection and vaccination with use of current molecular tools and a broader range of animal systems. Key points • Currently used and past non-primate animal models of B. pertussis infection often have unique and focused applications. • A non-primate animal model that consistently mimics human pertussis for the majority of key infection characteristics is lacking. • There remains ample opportunity for an improved non-primate animal model of pertussis with the use of current molecular biology tools and with further exploration of species not previously considered.

Abstract
Pertussis is a respiratory disease caused by the Gram-negative pathogen, Bordetella pertussis. The transition from a whole-cell pertussis vaccine (wP and DTP) to an acellular pertussis vaccine (aP, DTaP, and Tdap) correlates with an increase in pertussis cases, despite widespread vaccine implementation and coverage, and it is now appreciated that the protection provided by aP rapidly wanes. To recapitulate the localized immunity observed from natural infection, mucosal vaccination with aP was explored using the coughing rat model of pertussis. Overall, our goal was to evaluate the route of vaccination in the coughing rat model of pertussis. Immunity induced by both oral gavage and intranasal vaccination of aP in B. pertussis challenged rats over a 9-day infection was compared to intramuscular wP (IM-wP)- and IM-aP-immunized rats that were used as positive controls. Our data demonstrate that mucosal immunization of aP resulted in the production of anti-B. pertussis IgG antibody titers similar to IM-wP- and IM-aP-vaccinated controls postchallenge. IN-aP also induced anti-B. pertussis IgA antibodies in the nasal cavity. Immunization with IM-wP, IM-aP, IN-aP, and OG-aP immunization protected against B. pertussis-induced cough, whereas OG-aP immunization did not protect against respiratory distress. Mucosal immunization by both intranasal and oral gavage administration protected against acute inflammation and decreased bacterial burden in the lung compared to mock-vaccinated challenge rats. The data presented in this study suggest that mucosal vaccination with aP can induce a mucosal immune response and provide protection against B. pertussis challenge. This study highlights the potential benefits and uses of the coughing rat model of pertussis; however, further questions regarding waning immunity still require additional investigation.

Abstract
The significant and sometimes dramatic rise in the number of circulating white blood cells (leukocytosis) in infants suffering from pertussis (whooping cough) has been recognized for over a century. Although pertussis is a disease that afflicts people of all ages, it can be particularly severe in young infants, and these are the individuals in whom leukocytosis is most pronounced. Very high levels of leukocytosis are associated with poor outcome in infants hospitalized with pertussis and modern treatments are often aimed at reducing the number of leukocytes. Pertussis leukocytosis is caused by pertussis toxin, a soluble protein toxin released by Bordetella pertussis during infection, but the exact mechanisms by which this occurs are still unclear. In this minireview, I discuss the history of clinical and experimental findings on pertussis leukocytosis, possible contributing mechanisms causing this condition and treatments aimed at reducing leukocytosis in hospitalized infants. Since recent studies have detailed significant associations between specific levels of pertussis leukocytosis and fatal outcome, this is a timely review that may stimulate new thinking on how to understand and combat this problem.

Abstract
Pertussis toxin treatment in macaques inhibits lymphocyte extravasation from the blood and leads to transient lymphocytosis and leukocytosis. We examined lymphocyte adhesion molecules known to be involved in the extravasation process to find possible mechanisms for the effects of pertussis toxin treatment. The two subunits of LFA-1, CD11a and CD18, showed decreased surface expression on lymphocytes from pertussis toxin treated animals compared to untreated animals. The adhesion molecule CD44, and the alpha subunit of the integrin VLA-4 (CD49d) were not decreased by pertussis toxin treatment. Lower surface expression of CD11a and CD18 was observed on all lymphocyte subsets and was correlated inversely with the extent of lymphocytosis. The magnitude of lymphocytosis after pertussis toxin treatment was higher in SIV-infected macaques than in uninfected animals. However, changes in LFA-1 levels were similar in both groups. These data show that LFA-1 surface levels are affected by pertussis toxin in vivo and this change may account in part, for the ability of pertussis toxin to induce lymphocytosis.

Abstract
Declining blood CD4(+) T-cell counts mark the progress of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) disease in macaques and model the consequences of untreated human immunodeficiency virus infection in humans. However, blood lymphocytes are only a fraction of the recirculating lymphocyte pool, and their numbers are affected by cell synthesis, cell depletion, and distribution among blood and lymphoid tissue compartments. Asymptomatic, SIV-infected macaques maintained constant and nearly normal numbers of recirculating lymphocytes despite the decline in CD4(+) T-cell counts. Substantial depletion was detected only when blood CD4(+) T-cell counts fell below 300/microliter. In asymptomatic animals, changes in CD4(+) T-cell distribution were more important than lymphocyte depletion for controlling the blood cell levels.

Abstract
The gastric mucosa is an important portal of entry for lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infections. Within hours after intragastric (i.g.) inoculation, virus appears in the gastric epithelia, then in the mesenteric lymph nodes and spleen, and then in the liver and brain. By 72 h i.g.-inoculated virus is widely disseminated and equivalent to intravenous (i.v.) infection (S. K. Rai, B. K. Micales, M. S. Wu, D. S. Cheung, T. D. Pugh, G. E. Lyons, and M. S. Salvato. Am. J. Pathol. 151:633-639, 1997). Pretreatment of mice with a G protein inhibitor, pertussis toxin (PTx), delays LCMV dissemination after i.g., but not after i.v., inoculation. Delayed infection was confirmed by plaque assays, by reverse transcription-PCR, and by in situ hybridization. The differential PTx effect on i.v. and i.g. infections indicates that dissemination from the gastric mucosa requires signals transduced through heterotrimeric G protein complexes. PTx has no direct effect on LCMV replication, but it modulates integrin expression in part by blocking chemokine signals. LCMV infection of macrophages up-regulates CD11a, and PTx treatment counteracts this. PTx may prevent early LCMV dissemination by inhibiting the G protein-coupled chemotactic response of macrophages infected during the initial exposure, thus blocking systemic virus spread.

Abstract
Lymph nodes and other solid tissues of the immune system are the principal sites for antigen presentation and lymphocyte activation. Lymphocytes in peripheral blood recognize the high endothelial venules within lymphoid tissues and cross from blood to tissue by the process of extravasation. Pertussis toxin is known to block extravasation and cause lymphocytosis in murine models but has not been studied extensively in nonhuman primates. We used intravenous injection of soluble pertussis toxin to induce a transient lymphocytosis in rhesus monkeys. The increase in total white blood cells was proportionally greater for lymphocytes than for polymorphonuclear cells and the CD4+ lymphocyte subpopulation increased more than the CD8+ cell population. The presence of immature polymorphonuclear cells suggested some activation of bone marrow. Clinical chemistry studies revealed an effect of pertussis toxin on liver function. Pertussis toxin is a powerful immunomodulatory agent that can disrupt and reorganize solid lymphoid tissues.

Abstract
Although it is well known that essentially all peripheral T cells are derived from bone marrow progenitors that mature in the thymus, the mechanism whereby thymocytes gain access to peripheral compartments is obscure. We have learned that this process is sensitive to pertussis toxin (PT). Transgenic lck-PT mice were generated which express the catalytic subunit of PT in all thymocytes. In a previous study we observed that T cell receptor signaling is unimpaired in these cells despite the virtual elimination of their Gi protein signal transduction elements through endogenous PT activity. Here we demonstrate that mature T lineage cells accumulate in lck-PT thymuses and fail to populate peripheral lymphoid organs. The accumulating cells closely resemble normal peripheral T lymphocytes with respect to cell surface phenotype and responses to allogeneic spleen cells, yet perform poorly in in vivo homing assays. This migratory defect does not result from deficient expression of common homing receptors or alterations in intracellular cAMP concentrations. Based on these results, we propose that a novel PT-sensitive signaling pathway, almost certainly involving a Gi protein, is required for thymocyte emigration.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms by which pertussis toxin (PTX) inhibits lymphocyte homing to peripheral lymph nodes (PLN) remain poorly understood. PTX-treated lymphocytes express homing receptors, yet cannot extravasate into PLN in vivo. Methylation of PTX, a procedure known to inactivate the B-oligomer of the toxin, restored high endothelial venule (HEV) binding capacity. In vitro studies established that toxin exposure inhibited the accessory role of LFA-1 in HEV binding. In contrast, PTX-exposed lymphocytes exhibited normal MEL-14-mediated HEV binding. Analysis of membrane fluidity revealed a 20% decrease in fluorescence polarization in PTX-exposed lymphocytes. On the basis of the current experiments, we propose a "zipper" model of lymphocyte-HEV interaction, in which lateral mobility of adhesion receptors in the cell membrane toward a site of endothelial contact is necessary to maintain adhesion against the shear force due to blood flow. PTX inhibits these processes by decreasing membrane fluidity, and by altering accessory adhesion molecule function.

Abstract
By flow cytometric analysis, we identified the subclass of lymphocytes that proliferates in response to islet-activating protein (IAP), both in vitro (human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, MNC, cultured with IAP) and in vivo (peripheral blood MNC derived from A/J mice treated with IAP). IAP caused a preferential proliferation of CD8+ T cells. These cells expressed the IL-2 receptors on their surface. CD4+ CD8+ T cells could also be detected in these cultures, IAP caused human MNC to produce IL-1 and to induce expression of HLA-DR antigen. These effects may play an important role in the T-cell proliferation induced by IAP, although IAP by itself suppressed the proliferative action of IL-1 in mouse thymocytes. IAP induced proliferation of the purified CD4+ cells but had a smaller effect on the purified CD8+ cells. This suggests that the proliferation of CD8+ cells in IAP-treated MNC depends on the function of other types of cell, e.g. CD4+ cell and macrophage.

Abstract
Lymphocyte promoting factor (LPF), a bioproduct of Bordetella pertussis shown previously to exert immunosuppressive effects, was examined for its effect on Concanavalin A (Con A) induced T lymphocyte suppressor activity by human lymphocytes. Suppressor cells (5 x 10(4) cells/well) first generated with Con A (10 micrograms/ml) for 24h were co-cultured with responder cells (5 x 10(4) cells/well) for another 72h in the presence of Con A (2.5, 5, 20 micrograms/ml). In this culture condition, LPF (20 micrograms) and/or histamine 10(-5) M or 10(-6) M/well were added for comparison. The suppressor activity was assessed by the reduction of the uptake of radioactivity of [3H] thymidine compared to that of Con A alone. Lymphocytes treated with LPF exhibited increase of suppression by 22 to 41%, while LPF and histamine (10(-5) M) together further increased the suppression by 35 to 63% compared to controls. Serial studies on cell population in the culture indicated OKT8(+) cells proliferated after day 6 in culture. These results indicated LPF exerts selective enhancement of T cell suppressor activity by 72h in culture, prior to cell expansion, and that activity can be further strengthened by sensitizing cells to histamine.

Abstract
Previous results from our laboratory demonstrated that purified lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF), a protein toxin from Bordetella pertussis, inhibited the migration of murine macrophages in vitro. The current study examined the in vivo effects of LPF on mononuclear phagocyte circulation and response to an inflammatory stimulus. Intravenous injection of mice with 200 ng of LPF produced a prolonged monocytosis which peaked with a fivefold increase on day 5 after injection. LPF (200 ng) also inhibited by more than 75% the increase in peritoneal inflammatory macrophages induced by intraperitoneal injection of thioglycolate broth, phytohemagglutinin, or paraffin oil. The inhibition was significant when thioglycolate was given 1 h or 2 or 4 days after LPF but not when thioglycolate was given 2 or 4 days before LPF. The LPF-induced monocytosis on day 5 after injections was not altered by the intraperitoneal injection of thioglycolate broth. The leukocytosis-promoting and macrophage-inhibiting properties of LPF were the same in N:NIH(S) and C3H/HeJ mice. Treatments of LPF that reduced the leukocytosis-promoting effect of LPF also reduced the ability of LPF to inhibit the macrophage response. LPF doses sufficient to induce leukocytosis (greater than or equal to 25 ng) significantly inhibited the thioglycolate-induced increase in peritoneal macrophages. The results indicate that coincident with an LPF-induced monocytosis is a reduction in the number of mononuclear phagocytes at a site of inflammation. An in vivo inhibition of mononuclear phagocyte migration would explain both effects of LPF and is consistent with the in vitro inhibition of macrophage migration by LPF.

Abstract
The ability of DTP (diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis) vaccine to stimulate IgG-plaque forming cells (PFC) in mice was markedly inhibited by human leukocyte and mouse fibroblast interferon (IF). This effect of IF was not dose-dependent. The maximum inhibitory effect of human IF was observed on Day 10 after the administration of the vaccine. The inhibition of IgM-PFC was more severe when human IF was used. Although IF abrogated the effect of DTP vaccine on IgG-PFC, at the same time it stimulated PFC in the control group of non-vaccinated animals. The administration of DTP vaccine decreased IgM-PFC on Day 5, the effect was enforced by the addition of both human and mouse IF. IF decreased IgM-PFC in the control group. Small and large doses of DTP suppressed the leukocyte adherance inhibition (LAI) on Day 5 after administration of the vaccine, the effect was not affected by addition of IF. The suppressive effect of DTP was lost on Day 10 when addition of IF increased the percent of LAI in all experimental groups. Thus IF appears to interfere with the effect of DTP and selectively modulate the different immune responses.

Abstract
Cytotoxic effector lymphocytes were induced in cultures of mouse spleen or lymph node cells by lymphocytosis promoting factor (LPF). The LPF-activated cytotoxic cells: (a) were not generated unless proliferation occurred; (b) sedimented in the lighter density fraction of a bovine serum albumin gradient; (c) were large, blast-like cells; and (d) were lysed by Thy-1.2 antiserum plus complement and, therefore, were T cells. Neither LPF alone nor supernates from stimulated cultures were cytotoxic. Unlike the situation with concanavalin A and phytohemagglutinin P, LPF-stimulated cytotoxic effector lymphocytes required no further addition of mitogen for maximal cytotoxicity. The effector cells displayed specificity, destroying only allogeneic but not syngeneic normal cells; in the case of tumor cells, both allogeneic and syngeneic cells werelysed in the absence of added mitogen. The reason for differentiated cytotoxicity toward syngeneic tumor and normal cells is not clear but may have some relevance to in vivo tumor rejection initiated by Bordetella pertussis.

Abstract
The lymphocytosis-promoting factor of Bordetella pertussis is a potent mitogen for murine lymphocytes in vitro. The stimulatory response was not the result of specific antigen stimulation. Spleen and lymph node cells were responsive, whereas normal thymocytes were unresponsive. However, DNA replication was induced in cortisone-resistant thymocytes by lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF). Bone marrow cells were not stimulated by LPF.

Abstract
The leukocytosis-promoting factor (LPF), purified from materials extracted from agar in which Bordetella pertussis was grown, caused leukocytosis and an increased sensitivity to histamine when as little as 0.04 mug of protein was given intravenously to mice. LPF was adsorbed onto erythrocytes, causing hemagglutination. As little as 0.03 mug of LPF protein agglutinated chicken erythrocytes in 0.05 ml of a 0.5% suspension. The physicochemical, biological, and immunological properties indicated that leukocytosis, increased sensitivity to histamine in mice, and agglutination of erythrocytes are functions of a single substance.

Abstract
The activity of soluble lymphocytosis-promoting factor (LPF) from Bordetella pertussis decreased after brief in vitro incubation with lymphoid cells or erythrocytes. The LPF activity was found to be associated with the cells used, and injection of the cells produced a leukocytosis and lymphocytosis which completely accounted for the loss of soluble activity. Attachment of LPF to cells was found to be reversible in vitro. It is suggested that reversible binding occurs in vivo.

Abstract
The leucocytosis-promoting factor was purified from the supernatant fluid of spent cultures of Bordetella pertussis on solid medium. After precipitation at 67% saturation of ammonium sulfate, the leucocytosis-promoting factor was extracted with a 1.0 m NaCl solution. Purification was accomplished by starch block electrophoresis and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The purified preparation contained a high leucocytosis-promoting activity, and as small an amount as 0.04 mug of protein induced leucocytosis in mice. About 520-fold purification was attained, with a re-recovery of about 25% on an activity basis. The leucocytosis-promoting factor was composed solely of filamentous molecules of about 2 by 40 nm in size, with a sedimentation coefficient of approximately 5.5S and a molecular weight of 108,000. It was insoluble in water but partially soluble in 1.0 m NaCl solution, and consisted mainly of protein, with some carbohydrate, lipid, and phosphorus.

Abstract
The mechanism by which Bordetella pertussis organisms and their products induce lymphocytosis in mice was analyzed in terms of the localization of syngeneic Cr-51-labeled lymph node cells. Labeled lymphoid cells incubated in vitro with the supernatant of B. pertussis cultures and then injected intravenously into normal recipients, or labeled cells injected into pertussis-treated recipients were unable to "home" to lymphoid organs but persisted for long periods in the blood. In animals "equipped" with a population of Cr-51-labeled lymphoid cells, administration of B. pertussis organisms or culture supernatant effected a shift of radioactivity from lymph nodes and spleen into the peripheral blood, coincident with the lymphocytosis. In in vitro experiments it was found that the active principle could bind to both erythrocytes and lymphocytes and could spontaneously elute from these cells onto labeled lymphocytes which were then unable to home efficiently. The data suggest that Bordetella pertussis-induced lymphocytosis involves a reversible attachment of the pertussis factor onto the surfaces of lymphocytes which prevents their recirculation to lymphoid organs. Recirculating lymphocytes are presumably affected as they emerge from lymphoid organs to enter the blood.

Abstract
Peripheral blood lymphocytes were isolated from normal mice and mice undergoing pertussis-induced lymphocytosis. After labeling in vitro with tritiated uridine the cells were transfused into normal or pertussis-treated mice. It was found that the lymphocytes from pertussis-treated mice entered the lymph nodes of both normal mice and pertussis-treated mice to a significantly lesser extent than did normal lymphocytes which had been transfused into either class of recipient. In addition, an interdependence of changes in the various body compartments examined was found when normal lymphocytes were injected into either type of recipient. However, when pertussis lymphocytes were injected into normal mice there was no interrelationship between the changes in the node with those in the blood, liver, lung, or spleen. In the case of pertussis lymphocytes transfused into pertussis-treated mice no interrelationship between any two compartments was observed. It was concluded that in pertussis-treated mice there is an inhibition of lymphocyte emigration which is primarily the consequence of an effect on the cell.

Abstract
The effect of thymectomy and splenectomy in C3H/Bi mice on the responses of circulating leucocytes and on morphological changes of the haematopoietic tissues after injection of pertussis vaccine has been studied. After pertussis all mice showed depletion of lymphoid cells in all the lymphoid organs as well as in bone-marrow and an increased number of leucocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophils and monocytes in the circulation. Neonatal thymectomy decreased lymphocytosis produced by pertussis. Thymectomy, at all ages studied, fostered an increase in the number of monocytes and polymorphonuclears in circulation. Splenectomy at birth or early in life provoked an increase in levels of circulating polymorphonuclears and lymphocytes in pertussis treated animals. In neonatally thymectomized mice the depletion of lymphoid cells from lymphoid tissues after pertussis could be shown to include the thymic-independent areas. The depletion of small lymphocytes from thymus following pertussis persisted longer than depletion of small lymphocytes from spleen, marrow or lymph nodes. The longer persistence of lymphoid depletion in the thymus than in peripheral lymphoid tissues is, we believe, to be related to the central lymphoid function of thymus as a site of differentiation of lymphoid cells and to the aloofness of thymus from recirculation of fully differentiated peripheral lymphocytes.

Abstract
Adult mice injected with an adequate amount of a non-immunogenic antigen progress to a specific state of immunological paralysis, unless a substance with `extrinsic' adjuvanticity is injected before the induction of paralysis is completed. Consequently incipiently paralysed mice can be used to assay substances for adjuvanticity. Conventional adjuvants such as Freund's adjuvant and pertussis possess adjuvanticity; other substances with varying degrees of adjuvanticity are listed in the tables. It has been shown that the adjuvanticity effect of an injection of pertussis lasts for only a few days, although the effect of such an injection of pertussis on phagocytosis of carbon particles does not reach a maximum until 2 weeks after the injection. The dose-effectiveness of alum precipitated (highly phagocytosable) bovine γ-globulin was greatly increased by the intraperitoneal injection of pertussis. The evidence is considered to be incompatible with increased phagocytosis being either an essential factor in the role of pertussis as a conventional adjuvant, or in the adjuvanticity effect of pertussis.

Abstract
The 24 hr volume flow, cell concentration, and total cell output of thoracic duct fluid from mice with pertussis-induced hyperlymphocytosis were markedly reduced when compared with values obtained in normal animals. An increase in the number of circulating lymphocytes occurred in several of the pertussis-treated mice despite the presence of an indwelling thoracic duct cannula. The drainage from such animals also showed a reduced cell concentration and total cell output. It is suggested that lymphocyte recirculation may be minimal in pertussis-induced lymphocytosis, and the evidence obtained also suggests that lymphocytes may enter the blood stream by direct routes during the course of the reaction.
