Vaccination with a fusion protein that introduces HIV-1 gag antigen into a multitrimer CD40L construct results in enhanced CD8+ T cell responses and protection from viral challenge by vaccinia-gag.
|

24227853
|
CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154) is a membrane protein that is important for the activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and DC-induced CD8(+) T cell responses.
|
3 |
24227853
|
To be active, CD40L must cluster CD40 receptors on responding cells.
|
4 |
24227853
|
To produce a soluble form of CD40L that clusters CD40 receptors necessitates the use of a multitrimer construct.
|
5 |
24227853
|
With this in mind, a tripartite fusion protein was made from surfactant protein D (SPD), HIV-1 Gag as a test antigen, and CD40L, where SPD serves as a scaffold for the multitrimer protein complex.
|
6 |
24227853
|
This SPD-Gag-CD40L protein activated CD40-bearing cells and bone marrow-derived DCs in vitro.
|
7 |

|
Compared to a plasmid for Gag antigen alone (pGag), DNA vaccination of mice with pSPD-Gag-CD40L induced an increased number of Gag-specific CD8(+) T cells with increased avidity for major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted Gag peptide and improved vaccine-induced protection from challenge by vaccinia-Gag virus.
|
8 |
24227853
|
This plasmid, pTrimer-Gag-CD40L, was only weakly active on CD40-bearing cells and did not elicit strong CD8(+) T cell responses or improve protection from vaccinia-Gag challenge.
|
9 |
24227853
|
Overall, these results show the potential of a new vaccine design in which antigen is introduced into a construct that expresses a multitrimer soluble form of CD40L, leading to strongly protective CD8(+) T cell responses.

Many studies have reported genetic associations between severe RSV bronchiolitis and SNPs in genes within plausible biological pathways, such as in innate host defense genes (SPA, SPD, TLR4, and VDR), cytokine or chemokine response genes (CCR5, IFN, IL6, IL10, TGFB1), and altered Th1/Th2 immune responses (IL4, IL13).
