Abstrak
Clinically successful vaccinations in infectious disease settings mainly rely on the induction of antibodies to neutralize the infectious agent. Vaccine formulations have still yet to fully take advantage of the cellular branch of the adaptive immune response. Antigens and adjuvants carried on nano-sized particles have shown promise in the induction of such an immune response. We have established the lymphatic draining, complement activating pluronic stabilized poly (propylene sulfide) nanoparticles as possible vaccine agents (1). The size and chemistry alters the association of the particulates with different organs, and also in varied antigen presenting cell compartments after intradermal immunization. Nanoparticle associated antigen is successfully presented by antigen presenting cells (2), and elicits both humoral and cellular immune responses (3). In intrapulmonary immunizations, we have shown that the antigen-specific (Ag85B, and model antigen ovalbumin) cellular responses are capable of minimizing the impact of a challenge by the infectious agent (mycobacterium tuberculosis, and influenza) in the mouse model (4).
