Evaluation of recombinant adenovirus vaccines based on glycoprotein D and truncated UL25 against herpes simplex virus type 2 in mice.
Microbiology and Immunology 2017 May
The high prevalence of herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) infections in humans necessitates the development of a safe and effective vaccine that will need to induce vigorous T-cell responses to control viral infection and transmission. We designed rAd-gD2, rAd-gD2ΔUL25, and rAd-ΔUL25 to investigate whether recombinant replication-defective adenoviruses vaccine could induce specific T-cell responses and protect mice against intravaginal HSV-2 challenge compared with FI-HSV-2. In the present study, recombinant adenovirus-based HSV-2 showed higher reductions in mortality and stronger antigen-specific T-cell responses compared with FI-HSV-2 and the severity of genital lesions in mice immunized with rAd-gD2ΔUL25 was significantly decreased by eliciting IFN-γ-secreting T-cell responses compared with rAd-gD2 and rAd-ΔUL25 groups. Our results demonstrated the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of recombinant adenovirus vaccines in acute HSV-2 infection following intravaginal challenge in mice.
