Dings. Antigens alone (gp140 and TT) induced different responses according to the route of administration. Both gp140 and TT, gave very high IgG1/IgG2a ratios (.50) with SC-administration indicating a strong Th2 bias. For gp140 this bias was less with SL- (11) and least for IN- (3.5) administration. In contrast, for TT, IN moderately reduced the Th2 bias of SC-immunisation, while SLadministration provided a balance Th1/Th2 ratio (0.9). The strong Th2-type bias of SC-immunisation is supported by previous studies using OVA [36]. Low DprE1-IN-2 site Benzocaine biological activity antigen doses are thought to preferentially stimulate Th2 type responses with Th1 responses more dependent upon antigen reaching draining lymph nodes. Previous studies have shown that SC-administered proteins mostly stay at the site of injection with only minimal amounts reaching draining lymph nodes [37]. It is interesting to speculate that INand SL- administration maybe more efficient at delivering antigen to their closely associated lymphoid tissue than SC-immunisation thereby eliciting stronger Th1 responses. This merits further study. When looking across routes of administration some distinct patters can be recognized. Chitosan appeared to provide a strong Th2 biasing effect for SL- and IN-administration with both TT and gp140. Chitosan is thought to open epithelial tight junctions allowing more efficient uptake of antigen, but may also complex to antigen through electrostactic interactions [15],[38],[39]. This complexing of antigen may restrict access to draining lymph nodes preferentially favouring Th2 type IgG1 dominated responses. In contrast CpG-B reduced the natural Th2 biasing of responses to both antigens irrespective of the route of administration. Different patterns are recognizable when looking at responsiveness by route of administration. For SC-immunisation with gp140 all adjuvants except chitosan reduced the strong Th2 biasing of humoral responses, most clearly demonstrated with MPLA that induced a stronger Th1 bias (Figure 6E). This most likely reflects triggering of antigen loaded dendritic cell maturation and migration to draining lymph nodes along CCL19/CCL21 chemotactic gradients thereby efficiently delivering antigen to a more Th1 type inductive site [36]. This trend was less clear for TT where Poly I:C, R848 and CpG-B all provided a more balanced Th1/Th2 response but FSL-1, MPLA and Pam3CSK4 had little or no impact on the strong Th2 bias of TT alone (Figure 7E). SLimmunisation with gp140 was generally Th2 biased, although less so than SC, and only CpG-B and FSL-1 produced an appreciable reduction in IgG1/IgG2a ratios. This may reflect differential TLRMucosal TLR Adjuvants for HIV-gpexpression on localized dendritic cell populations. In contrast SLimmunisation with TT gave a much more balanced Th1/Th2 response with or without adjuvants, the exception being chitosan. IN-immunisation with gp140 provided a more balanced Th1/Th2 profile than SL- or SC-routes, however responses were appreciably shifted towards a Th2 bias by FSL-1, MPLA, Pam3CSK4 and chitosan. IN-immunisation with TT alone was more skewed toward a Th2 profile (20) than SL-administration with TT and greater than that seen with IN-gp140. A more balanced Th1/Th2 response was induced with Poly I:C, R848 and CpG-B. These data demonstrate route, antigen, and adjuvant dependent effects. It is important to take into account that the Balb/C mouse strain, used in our experiments, has a strong Th2 bias compared to other strains of mice.Dings.
