Abstract
Protollin-MV is a vaccine produced by mixing split measles virus (MV) antigen with the novel adjuvant Protollin (Neisseria meningitidis outer membrane proteins non-covalently complexed with Shigella flexneri 2a lipopolysaccharide). Intranasal immunization of mice with two or three doses of Protollin-MV induces both serum IgG and mucosal IgA with strong neutralizing activity. There is a dose-dependent shift towards lower IgG1:IgG2a ratios and MV-specific IFNgamma production in splenocytes. Intranasal Protollin-MV can therefore induce systemic and mucosal neutralizing antibody responses as well as elicit a balanced TH1/TH2-type response.Entities:
