Safe Subunit Green Vaccines Confer Robust Immunity and Protection against Mucosal Brucella Infection in Mice. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:vaccines11030546. [PMID: 36992130 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11030546] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease that causes significant negative impacts on the animal industry and affects over half a million people worldwide every year. The limited safety and efficacy of current animal brucellosis vaccines, combined with the lack of a licensed human brucellosis vaccine, have led researchers to search for new vaccine strategies to combat the disease. To this end, the present research aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a green vaccine candidate that combines Brucella abortus S19 smooth lipopolysaccharide (sLPS) with Quillaja saponin (QS) or QS-Xyloglucan mix (QS-X) against mucosal brucellosis in BALB/C mice. The results of the study indicate that administering two doses of either sLPS-QS or sLPS-QS-X was safe for the animals, triggered a robust immune response, and enhanced protection following intranasal challenge with S19. Specifically, the vaccine combinations led to the secretion of IgA and IgG1 in the BALF of the immunized mice. We also found a mixed IgG1/IgG2a systemic response indicating evidence of both Th1 and Th2 activation, with a predominance of the IgG1 over the IgG2a. These candidates resulted in significant reductions in the bioburden of lung, liver, and spleen tissue compared to the PBS control group. The sLPS-QS vaccination had conferred the greatest protection, with a 130-fold reduction in Brucella burdens in lung and a 55.74-fold reduction in the spleen compared to PBS controls. Vaccination with sLPS-QS-X resulted in the highest reduction in splenic Brucella loads, with a 364.6-fold decrease in bacterial titer compared to non-vaccinated animals. The study suggests that the tested vaccine candidates are safe and effective in increasing the animals’ ability to respond to brucellosis via mucosal challenge. It also supports the use of the S19 challenge strain as a safe and cost-effective method for testing Brucella vaccine candidates under BSL-2 containment conditions.

Abstract
The innate lymphoid cell (ILC) system comprising of the circulating and tissue-resident cells is known to clear infectious pathogens, establish immune homeostasis as well as confer antitumor immunity. Human natural killer cells (hNKs) and other ILCs carry out mopping of the infectious pathogens and perform cytolytic activity regulated by the non-adaptive immune system. The NK cells generate immunological memory and rapid recall response tightly regulated by the adaptive immunity. The interaction of NK and B cell, and its role to induce the pathogen specific immunity is not fully understood. Hence, present article sheds light on the interaction between NK and B cells and resulting immune responses in the infectious diseases. The immune responses elicited by the NK-B cell interaction is of particular importance for developing therapeutic vaccines against the infectious pathogens. Further, experimental evidences suggest the immune-response driven by NK cell population elicits the host-specific antibodies and memory B cells. Also, recently developed humanized immune system (HIS) mice and their importance in to understanding the NK-B cell interaction and resulting pathogen specific immunity has been discussed.

Abstract
1. This study evaluated and characterised the effect of folic acid (FA) on chromosomal DNA methylation and the epigenetic result on gene expression control mechanisms in chicken B cells as a model of antigen presenting cells. 2. After FA supplementation, the methylation pattern on the proximal promoter area and mRNA expression of toll-like receptor (TLR) 2b, TLR4, B cell receptor (BCR) immunoglobulin (Ig) β and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II β chain genes in chicken B cells was observed 3. Chicken B cell line (DT40) cultures were incubated with 0, 1.72 or 3.96 mM of FA for 4 and 8 h and samples were taken at specific time points. After 4 h of incubation, cells were challenged with 0, 1 or 10 µg/ml of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and samples were collected 4 h post-challenge. 4. FA supplementation modified the methylation patterns of the proximal promoter regions of TLR4, Igß, and MHCII ß chain at 4 and 8 hours of incubation; however, the single CpG dinucleotide of TLR2b remained methylated regardless of the treatment. 5. A positive association was found between FA concentration and percentage DNA methylation on the promoter area of Igβ and TLR2b. However, there was a negative association between FA and MHCII β chain. 6. There were downregulatory effects in TLR4, Igß and MHCII ß chain gene expression after 8 h of incubation, nut not at 4 h. Although incubation time did not affect TLR2b gene expression, FA concentration did, whereby it increased TLR2b expression at 1.72 mM FA (P < 0.05). 7. LPS significant downregulated TLR2b expression, while an interaction between FA and LPS concentration affected TLR4 and Igβ gene expression. 8. In conclusion, the results showed that FA can have an immunomodulatory effect on chicken B cells, possibly affecting their ability to both recognise antigens through the TLR and BCR pathways, and to present it via the MHCII presentation pathway.

Abstract
Pathology has not been observed in true seals infected with Brucella pinnipedialis. A lack of intracellular survival and multiplication of B. pinnipedialis in hooded seal (Cystophora cristata) macrophages in vitro indicates a lack of chronic infection in hooded seals. Both epidemiology and bacteriological patterns in the hooded seal point to a transient infection of environmental origin, possibly through the food chain. To analyse the potential role of fish in the transmission of B. pinnipedialis, Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) were injected intraperitoneally with 7.5 x 107 bacteria of a hooded seal field isolate. Samples of blood, liver, spleen, muscle, heart, head kidney, female gonads and feces were collected on days 1, 7, 14 and 28 post infection to assess the bacterial load, and to determine the expression of immune genes and the specific antibody response. Challenged fish showed an extended period of bacteremia through day 14 and viable bacteria were observed in all organs sampled, except muscle, until day 28. Neither gross lesions nor mortality were recorded. Anti-Brucella antibodies were detected from day 14 onwards and the expression of hepcidin, cathelicidin, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-10, and interferon (IFN)-γ genes were significantly increased in spleen at day 1 and 28. Primary mononuclear cells isolated from head kidneys of Atlantic cod were exposed to B. pinnipedialis reference (NCTC 12890) and hooded seal (17a-1) strain. Both bacterial strains invaded mononuclear cells and survived intracellularly without any major reduction in bacterial counts for at least 48 hours. Our study shows that the B. pinnipedialis strain isolated from hooded seal survives in Atlantic cod, and suggests that Atlantic cod could play a role in the transmission of B. pinnipedialis to hooded seals in the wild.

Abstract
Autoreactive B lymphocytes that escape central tolerance and mature in the periphery are a liability for developing autoimmunity. IgG insulin autoantibodies that predict type 1 diabetes and complicate insulin therapies indicate that mechanisms for tolerance to insulin are flawed. To examine peripheral tolerance in anti-insulin B cells, we generated C57BL/6 mice that harbor anti-insulin VDJH-125 site directed to the native IgH locus (VH125(SD)). Class switch-competent anti-insulin B cells fail to produce IgG Abs following T cell-dependent immunization of VH125(SD) mice with heterologous insulin, and they exhibit markedly impaired proliferation to anti-CD40 plus insulin in vitro. In contrast, costimulation with LPS plus insulin drives robust anti-insulin B cell proliferation. Furthermore, VH125(SD) mice produce both IgM and IgG2a anti-insulin Abs following immunization with insulin conjugated to type 1 T cell-independent Brucella abortus ring test Ag (BRT). Anti-insulin B cells undergo clonal expansion in vivo and emerge as IgM(+) and IgM(-) GL7(+)Fas(+) germinal center (GC) B cells following immunization with insulin-BRT, but not BRT alone. Analysis of Igκ genes in VH125(SD) mice immunized with insulin-BRT reveals that anti-insulin Vκ from the preimmune repertoire is selected into GCs. These data demonstrate that class switch-competent anti-insulin B cells remain functionally silent in T cell-dependent immune responses, yet these B cells are vulnerable to reversal of anergy following combined BCR/TLR engagement that promotes Ag-specific GC responses and Ab production. Environmental factors that lead to infection and inflammation could play a critical yet underappreciated role in driving loss of tolerance and promoting autoimmune disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brucella spp. are intracellular bacteria that establish lifelong infections whose mechanisms of chronicity are poorly understood. Notably, B cells facilitate the establishment of the high infection plateau that persists for months. METHODS We evaluated the contribution of murine B cells toward providing infection niches for Brucella by using flow cytometry and microscopy and by determining live bacterial counts associated with B cells both in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS Herein we demonstrate that immunoglobulin M and complement-opsonized Brucella abortus infects and survives inside primary murine B cells protected from bactericidal effects of gentamicin. The entry was dependent on microfilaments for internalization and subsequently brucellae reside in a late endosomal/lysosomal compartment. Throughout the infection, 10% of colony-forming units from infected mice was associated with B cells, and these cells transferred disease to naive hosts. Furthermore, Brucella-positive cells were positive for transforming growth factor (TGF) β1, and about 10% of such cells were B cells, similar to rates found for other intracellular pathogens that induce their hosts cells to produce TGF-β1. CONCLUSIONS To conclude, infected B cells contribute to chronic bacterial infections by providing an intracellular niche that may exert an immunoregulatory role. Although professional phagocytic cells harbor intracellular bacteria including Brucella, infection of lymphocytes by bacteria has not been previously appreciated.

Abstract
Our previous studies have indicated an important regulatory role for natural killer (NK) cells, a major constituent of the innate immune system in modulating antigen-specific responses. Herein, we have investigated the possible participation of these cells in regulating the polyclonal response as well. For these studies we have utilized heat-killed Brucella abortus (HKBA). Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular bacterium that is pathogenic for both humans and animals. An outstanding feature of the infectious process is the rapid production of polyclonal antibodies, particularly of the IgG2c subclass, that bypasses the requirement for clonally specific antigen recognition. We report here that NK-cell depletion profoundly reduced the production of these polyclonal antibodies suggesting that activation of B cells by HKBA requires help from NK cells. This help may not be solely derived from NK-cell amplification of the cytokine circuit initiated by HKBA but may involve direct NK-B-cell interactions as suggested by results of in vitro analyses of NK induction of γ2a mRNA by B cells. These findings have therapeutic implications in that the induction of polyclonal Ig production may be more important for altering the chronic phase rather than the acute stage of infection by B. abortus.

Abstract
We recently reported that intravenous injections of "empty" PEGylated liposomes without encapsulated or surface coupled proteins elicit a PEG-specific IgM response in rats. In the present study, simultaneous weak anti-PEG IgG and strong anti-PEG IgM responses were detected following intravenous injections of "empty" PEGylated liposomes. The pattern of immune response appears to differ from the classic primary response against T cell-dependent (TD) antigens. The anti-PEG IgM response was detected in T-cell deficient nude BALB/c mice following intravenous injection of "empty" PEGylated liposomes, suggesting that "empty" PEGylated liposomes initiate the immune response against PEG in a T cell-independent manner. In vitro splenic lymphocytes-proliferation assay indicated that TNP-LPS, a typical type 1 T cell-independent (TI) antigen (TI-1 antigen), significantly primed the proliferation, while TNP-Ficoll, a typical type 2 TI antigen (TI-2 antigen), and "empty" PEGylated liposomes did not prime any proliferation under these experimental conditions. In addition, in splenic marginal zone (MZ) B-cell-depleted rats, the anti-PEG IgM response was diminished, while the immune reactions against TNP-BSA (a TD antigen) and TNP-LPS (TI-1 antigen) were not diminished. These results demonstrate that "empty" PEGylated liposomes may promote the immune response against PEG as a result of priming the activation of MZ B cells, as TI-2 antigen promotes a specific IgM response. In conclusion, although the mechanistic details behind the immune reaction against "empty" PEGylated liposomes are not yet clear, the liposomes elicit an anti-PEG IgM response in a T cell-independent manner and appear to be a TI-2 antigen, and splenic MZ B cells may be essential for the immune response against "empty" PEGylated liposomes.

Abstract
A major problem of infections with facultative intracellular bacteria is their chronic course. We comprehensively evaluated the host response in murine brucellosis to study mechanisms contributing to bacterial persistence in the presence of an established immune response. Evidence is presented that the decrease in eradication kinetics, reproducibly occurring 18 d after infection of mice with Brucella abortus S19, is related to a state of downregulation of defense mechanisms. This is not due to a Th1 to Th2 switch or prostaglandin-mediated suppression by macrophages but is most probably caused by a severe disruption of spleen morphology at the height of Brucella-induced delayed type hypersensitivity. This results in a profound depletion of both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in periarteriolar lymphatic sheaths, a consecutive deleterious shift in the relation of permissive macrophages and protective lymphocytes and an impaired capacity of splenocytes to produce IFN-gamma in response to soluble Brucella antigen.

Abstract
Panning and screening of various phage display libraries with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against the O-chain of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Brucella sp. allowed the identification of peptidic mimotopes of some O-chain epitopes. Four mAbs were tested. The A76-12G12 mAb, which is specific for LPS of all strains of Brucella, either A- or M-dominant, did not yield any peptidic mimotope, despite a specific yield enrichment during the rounds of panning. The B66-4F9 mAb, that recognises an epitope common to both Brucella sp. and Yersinia enterocilitca O:9 strains, allowed the selection of only one phage clone that was shown to be an antigenic but not immunogenic mimotope. The B66-2C8 and A15-6B3 mAbs, respectively, specific for the LPS of A-dominant and M-dominant Brucella sp., yielded several sequences, which allowed the determination of consensus sequences. These consensus will be of high interest for the construction of second generation libraries. For the best binding peptides, competition with LPS for the binding to the mAb is detected, which suggests that the peptides bind to the paratope of the mAb. The phages selected from the libraries were used to immunise mice, and a weak antibody response directed against LPS has been observed for some peptides. These data suggest that a subset of the selected peptides are immunogenic mimotopes of the LPS epitopes.

Abstract
Salt-extractable antigen from Brucella melitensis 16M (RCM-BM) was used to evaluate the immune response from acute and chronic patients suffering from Brucella infections (in Mexico); their responses were compared with those of healthy controls. As a readout we used upregulation of CD69 (a well-established early activation marker for lymphocytes), lymphocyte proliferation by 3[H]thymidine or 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation measured by liquid scintillation or flow cytometry, respectively, and production of gamma interferon (IFN gamma). We compared the antigen-specific response with the response induced by phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) as a positive control. There was no difference between acute patients and the healthy controls in the percentages of CD3+, CD4+ or CD8+ lymphocytes. However, we found that chronic patients had a significant (P < 0.05) increase in the CD8+ T cells, in line with previous studies. Antigen-specific responses to RCM-BM showed a significant (P < 0.05) upregulation of CD69 in both CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in acute brucellosis patients and in CD8+ T lymphocytes in chronic patients, indicating that both populations became activated by this antigen preparation. Moreover, lymphocyte proliferation from both acute and chronic patients in response to RCM-BM was highly significant (P < 0.001) when compared with healthy controls. However, there were no apparent differences between acute and chronic patients. Although the incorporation of BrdU showed similar results it provided additional information, since we demonstrated that both CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes from acute and chronic patients proliferated equally well in response to RCM-BM. Similar results were observed with intracellular IFN gamma determination. As a whole, our data suggest an important role for both CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in Brucella infection in humans. As has been reported in mice, it is feasible that activated CD8+ T cells participate in protection against Brucella in humans through cytotoxicity or/and by the production of factors such as interferon and granulysin. The role of these cells should be carefully analysed to understand better their participation in human infection by Brucella.

Abstract
We have previously shown that a V3-loop peptide from HIV-1 envelope conjugated to heat-inactivated Brucella abortus (Ba) (V3-Ba) is capable of inducing antibodies that neutralize HIV-1 and cytotoxic T cells (CTL) that kill HIV-1-infected targets, even in mice that lack CD4(+) T cells. In this paper we show that intranasal (i.n.) immunization elicits neutralizing antibodies and IFNgamma-secreting T cells at mucosal surfaces. This approach may protect individuals from HIV-1 infection and reduce transmission from infected individuals to their sexual partners and offspring.

Abstract
Heat-killed Brucella abortus (HBa) has been proposed as a carrier for therapeutic vaccines for individuals with immunodeficiency, due to its abilities to induce interleukin-2 (IL-2) and gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and to upregulate antigen-presenting cell functions (including IL-12 production). In the current study, we investigated the ability of HBa or lipopolysaccharide isolated from HBa (LPS-Ba) to elicit beta-chemokines, known to bind to the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) coreceptor CCR5 and to block viral cell entry. It was found that human peripheral blood mononuclear cells secreted beta-chemokines following stimulation with HBa, and this effect could not be blocked by anti-IFN-gamma neutralizing antibodies. Among purified T cells, macrophage inflammatory protein 1alpha and 1beta (MIP-1alpha and MIP-1beta, respectively) secretion was observed primarily in human CD8(+) T cells. The kinetics of beta-chemokine induction in T cells were slow (3 to 4 days). The majority of beta-chemokine-producing CD8(+) T cells also produced IFN-gamma following HBa stimulation, as determined by triple-color intracellular staining. A significant number of CD8(+) T cells contained stored MIP-1beta that was released after HBa stimulation. Both HBa and LPS-Ba stimulated high levels of MIP-1alpha and MIP-1beta production in elutriated monocytes and even higher levels in macrophages. In these cells, beta-chemokine mRNA was upregulated within 30 min and proteins were secreted within 4 h of stimulation. The monocyte- and macrophage-derived beta-chemokines were sufficient to block CCR5-dependent HIV-1 envelope-mediated cell fusion. These data suggest that, in addition to the ability of HBa to elicit antigen-specific humoral and cellular immune responses, HBa-conjugated HIV-1 proteins or peptides would also generate innate chemokines with antiviral activity that could limit local viral spread during vaccination in vivo.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that a high proportion of RAG-2 SCID knockout mice, which lack T and B cells, develop orofacial abscesses and disseminated infections following pulpal infection, whereas immunocompetent control mice do not. In the present study, we sought to identify the components of the adaptive immune response which contribute to protection against disseminating anaerobic infections and sepsis. For this purpose, various genetically engineered immunodeficient mice were employed, including RAG-2 SCID, Igh-6 (B-cell deficient), Tcrb Tcrd (T-cell deficient) and Hc(0) (C5 deficient). For abscess induction, the mandibular first molars were subjected to pulp exposure on day 0. Teeth were infected with a mixture of four anaerobic pathogens, including Prevotella intermedia, Streptococcus intermedius, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Peptostreptococcus micros, and teeth were sealed to prevent communication with the oral cavity. The findings demonstrate that both RAG-2 SCID and B-cell-deficient mice, but not T-cell- or C5-deficient mice, have increased susceptibility to the development of disseminating anaerobic infections. Abscess-susceptible RAG-2 SCID and B-cell-deficient mice also showed a significant loss of body weight, splenomegaly, and absent antibacterial antibody production. Furthermore, dissemination was significantly reduced, from 74 to 25%, in susceptible RAG-2 mice by passively transferred antibody, predominantly immunoglobulin G2b (IgG2b) and IgM, against the infecting bacterial innoculum. Fractionated IgG-enriched preparations were more efficient in transferring protection than IgM preparations. We conclude that an antibody-mediated mechanism(s), most likely bacterial opsonization, is of importance in localizing anaerobic root canal infections and in preventing their systemic spread.

Abstract
Down-regulation of the Th2-like response induced by ovalbumin-alum (OVA/alum) immunization by heat-killed Brucella abortus was not reversed by anti-IL-12 antibody treatment or in gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) knockout mice, suggesting that induction of Th1 cytokines was not the only mechanism involved in the B. abortus-mediated inhibition of the Th2 response to OVA/alum. The focus of this study was to determine whether an alternative pathway involves alteration in expression of costimulatory molecules. First we show that the Th2-like response to OVA/alum is dependent on B7.2 interaction with ligand since it can be abrogated by anti-B7.2 treatment. Expression of costimulatory molecules was then studied in mice immunized with OVA/alum in the absence or presence of B. abortus. B7.2, but not B7.1, was up-regulated on mouse non-T and T cells following immunization with B. abortus. Surprisingly, B. abortus induced down-regulation of CD28 and up-regulation of B7.2 on murine CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. These effects on T cells were maximal for CD28 and B7.2 at 40 to 48 h and were not dependent on interleukin-12 (IL-12) or IFN-gamma. On the basis of these results, we propose that the IL-12/IFN-gamma-independent inhibition of Th2 responses to OVA/alum is secondary to the effects of B. abortus on expression of costimulatory molecules on T cells. We suggest that down-regulation of CD28 following activation inhibits subsequent differentiation of Th0 into Th2 cells. In addition, decreased expression of CD28 and increased expression of B7.2 on T cells would favor B7.2 interaction with CTLA-4 on T cells, and this could provide a negative signal to developing Th2 cells.

Abstract
A crude outer membrane preparation from Francisella tularensis live vaccine strain was used to immunise mice. Immunised mice were completely protected from a F. tularensis challenge. We evaluated the role of two major outer membrane antigens in the induction of protective immunity, namely lipopolysaccharide and an outer membrane protein FopA. We presented FopA to the immune system using an aromatic amino acid dependent Salmonella typhimurium as a vector. Although mice mounted an immune response to cloned FopA no significant protection was induced. However, lipopolysaccharide-immunised mice were completely protected from a F.tularensis live vaccine strain challenge. No increase in LD50 was observed using F. tularensis Schu4 as the challenge strain, although there was a significant increase in time to death. These data question the validity of the murine F. tularensis live vaccine strain model.

We evaluated the role of two major outer membrane antigens in the induction of protective immunity, namely lipopolysaccharide and an outer membrane protein FopA. We presented FopA to the immune system using an aromatic amino acid-dependent Salmonella typhimurium as a vector. Although mice mounted an immune response to cloned FopA no significant protection was induced. However, LPS immunized mice were completely protected. We conclude that LPS is a major protective antigen whereas FopA has a limited or no role in the induction of protective immunity.

Abstract
Mice vaccinated with Brucella abortus 19 (S19) or RB51 (SRB51) had spleen cells which proliferated in response to proteins of 32, 27, 18, and < 18 kDa but not in response to proteins of 106, 80, and 49 kDa from B. abortus 2308 (S2308) following vaccination and challenge infection with S2308. Spleen cells from mice vaccinated with S19 but not with SRB51 had increased proliferation in response to S2308 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) following challenge infection with S2308. We previously reported that mice vaccinated with S19 or SRB51, which were analyzed in the current study, have increased resistance to infection with S2308 and that only mice vaccinated with S19 produce antibody to S2308 LPS (M. Stevens, S. Olsen, G. Pugh, Jr., and D. Brees, Infect. Immun. 63:264-270, 1995). The results from our current and previous studies support the contention that vaccination of mice with S19 or SRB51 induces protection from infection with S2308 by cell-mediated immune responses to the same immunodominant (32, 27, 18, and < 18 kDa) protein antigens of S2308. In addition, the absence of S2308 LPS-responsive spleen cells and antibody to S2308 LPS in mice vaccinated with SRB51 suggests that immune responses to LPS have no role in SRB51-induced protective immunity.

Abstract
Defining the pattern of lymphokine production associated with Brucella abortus is critical for advancing the development of B. abortus as a vaccine carrier. In the present study we investigated the ability of heat-inactivated B. abortus or lipopolysaccharide from B. abortus to induce lymphokine production from purified human T cells in vitro. Gamma interferon (IFN-gamma), interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4, and IL-5 induction was assayed by mRNA-specific PCR and by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and bioassay for protein production. Following depletion of monocytes and B cells, B. abortus increased IFN-gamma and IL-2 mRNA expression in purified T cells compared with expression in unstimulated cells. In contrast, no IL-5 mRNA expression and only transient low-level IL-4 mRNA expression and no IL-4 protein secretion were detected. Phytohemagglutinin or phorbol myristate acetate plus ionomycin induced mRNA and protein for all these cytokines. Similar results were obtained with LPS purified from B. abortus. Removal of NK cells did not reduce lymphokine production, and enriched NK cells did not express IFN-gamma mRNA or secrete IFN-gamma protein in response to B. abortus, indicating that NK cells were not the responding population. Both CD4+ and CD8+ populations produced IFN-gamma and IL-2 in response to B. abortus. Preincubation of resting T cells with B. abortus or LPS from B. abortus for 7 days induced their differentiation into Th1-like cells as judged by their subsequent lymphokine response to phorbol myristate acetate plus ionomycin. These results suggest that B. abortus can induce differentiation of Th0 into Th1-type cells.

Abstract
It is known that the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of gram-negative bacteria, in addition to being a potent adjuvant, is an effective carrier for covalently associated haptens. However, the toxic nature of most forms of LPS precludes their use as adjuvants or carriers for human vaccines. 4'-Monophosphoryl lipid A (MLA), a derivative of LPS with attenuated toxicity, is currently being tested in humans as an immunological adjuvant. In this study, MLA was tested for its ability to function as a carrier for a small hapten, the trinitrophenyl group (TNP). MLA was first modified by addition of 6-aminocaproic acid to the 6' position of the disaccharide backbone (Cap-MLA). TNP was then attached to Cap-MLA via the free amino group, yielding TNP-Cap-MLA. Immunization of normal mice with TNP-Cap-MLA resulted in high-titer anti-TNP responses of immunoglobulin M and all immunoglobulin G subclasses. Furthermore MLA, like other T-cell-independent type 1 (TI-1) carriers, induced responses in athymic and X-linked immunodeficient mice. In all cases, immunization with either MLA alone or TNP-Cap plus MLA failed to induce measurable anti-TNP antibodies of any isotype, indicating that covalent association of MLA and hapten was necessary for MLA's carrier activity to be manifested. These properties of MLA make it a potential candidate as a carrier for vaccine subunit components, such as small peptides, especially for situations in which T-cell help is impaired, as occurs following human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection.

Abstract
A polyclonal IgG2a response dependent on the secretion of endogenous IFN-gamma has been demonstrated in BALB/c mice injected with killed whole cells of Brucella abortus [1]. Here we report intense and protracted polyclonal responses of IgG2a and also of IgG3 isotypes in BALB/c mice undergoing primary infections with B. abortus attenuated vaccine strain 19 or virulent strain 2308. Ratios of total serum Ig levels between infected mice and age matched controls were greater than 38 for IgG3 and greater than 12 for IgG2a between weeks 4 and 8 post-infection. Polyclonal increases of IgM and IgG1 that were proportionally much lower (ratios < 2 and < or = 3, respectively) also occurred in infected mice during this time. It is hypothesized that both IgG3 and IgG2a polyclonal responses required IFN-gamma, which was induced by B. abortus primarily in a T cell-independent fashion during the first weeks of infection, and from T cells thereafter.
