摘要: Background: Toxoplasmosis is a worldwide zoonosis caused by the intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii. However, no effective vaccine is yet available. Poly(lactide-co-glycolide) polymers can reduce protein degradation and sustain the release of antigens over a long period, which could generate a long-lasting immune response in vivo. Using a mouse model of toxoplasmosis, we evaluated the protective efficacy of vaccination with two recombinant proteins, which are formulated in biodegradable polymers. Methods: Two recombinant proteins, rCDPK6 and rROP18, were encapsulated in poly(D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG), and then injected subcutaneously into Kunming mice. The mice immune responses were evaluated in terms of lympho-proliferation, cytokine expression, and antibodies. The survival of infected mice and brain cyst formation were also evaluated at 6 weeks after challenge with T. gondii RH strain (genotype I) or PRU strain (genotype II). Results: Both protein vaccines induced Th1-biased immune responses, with increased specific antibodies and T cells, high levels of interferon-gamma and interleukin 2, and strong lymphocyte proliferative responses. The mice immunized with the various protein vaccines survived slightly longer time than the control groups (P > 0.05) after injection with T. gondii RH strain. There were fewer brain cysts in the mice in all the immunized groups than that in the control groups, and the brain cysts were significantly reduced in mice immunized with proteins + 206, rCDPK6 + PLG and rCDPK6 + rROP18 + PLG (P < 0.05) compared controls. Further comparison of the immune responses to the proteins adjuvanted with PLG or Montanide (TM) ISA 206 VG 6 weeks after the last immunization revealed that antigens encapsulated in PLG conferred greater protective immunity against challenge. Conclusions: These findings suggest that the two recombinant T. gondii proteins encapsulated in PLG conferred immunity to T. gondii for an extended period, providing the foundation for the further development of a commercial vaccine against toxoplasmosis.
