摘要
To develop an effective, safe, and convenient vaccine for the prevention of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1, we have constructed a recombinant Bacillus subtilis strain (B. S.-HA) expressing the hemagglutinin (HA) protein. Then we evaluated the immune function in chicken bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BM-DCs), and the immune response after oral immunization. Our results show that the recombinant Bacillus subtilis B. S.-HA could be sampled by BM-DCs in vitro and increase the BM-DCs major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II phenotype. The weight, height of the small intestine villus, and lymphoid tissue area of the ileum increased significantly in B. S.-HA immunized chickens (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). B. S.-HA induced the secretion of cytokines and the expression of Tolllike receptors in the trachea and small intestine (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). In addition, B. S.-HA elevated the specific IgA titers in the trachea, IgG and HI antibody titers in serum (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Therefore, B. S.-HA provides a potential novel strategy and approach for developing an H5N1 vaccine.
