Control of the HIV pandemic will require novel vaccination strategies. Although plasmid DNA immunization can elicit both cellular and humoral immune responses in experimental animals, these immunogens have often induced disappointing immune responses in human volunteers. Understanding the relationship between vaccine antigen expression and immunogenicity should facilitate the development of adjuvants for plasmid DNA immunogens and improve their clinical viability.Subjects--Topical Terms:

Control of the HIV pandemic will require novel vaccination strategies. Although plasmid DNA immunization can elicit both cellular and humoral immune responses in experimental animals, these immunogens have often induced disappointing immune responses in human volunteers. Understanding the relationship between vaccine antigen expression and immunogenicity should facilitate the development of adjuvants for plasmid DNA immunogens and improve their clinical viability.

We screened polymers from a library of beta-amino esters for their ability to augment plasmid DNA expression and cellular immune responses in vivo. Among the candidate polymers identified in this screen, poly [(1,6-di(acryloxyethoxy)-hexane)-co-(4-aminobutanol)] enhanced plasmid DNA transgene expression by seven-fold (p=0.0001) and its immunogenicity by seventy percent (p=0.03). We also observed a log-linear correlation (R 2=0.93) between peak cellular immune responses and transgene expression in all evaluated polymer-plasmid DNA formulations, clarifying the relationship between immunogenicity and the quantity of expressed antigen.

A number of novel vaccination strategies are based the assumption that long-term, high-level antigen expression may be required for eliciting potent and durable immune responses. However, little is known about host factors that might restrict long-term vaccine antigen expression in vivo. We have demonstrated that vaccine antigen-elicited T lymphocytes limit vaccine antigen expression. This damping of vaccine antigen expression occurs coincident with the emergence of cellular immune responses, is associated with the presence of strong cellular immune responses, and is dependent on the Fas receptor.

Finally, we have demonstrated that the innate immune system limits early antigen expression from plasmid DNA immunogens. Pretreatment of mice with plasmid GM-CSF decreases in vivo antigen expression from those vaccine constructs. This suppression is associated with the recruitment of innate immune cells to the site of inoculation and local increases in levels of certain cytokines, including IFNbeta. Coadministration of a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes IFNbeta activity with plasmid DNA immunogens relieves the cytokine-mediated suppression of plasmid DNA expression.

In summary, adjuvants that augment antigen expression by plasmid DNA vaccine constructs can enhance their immunogenicity, while adaptive and innate immune responses can reduce vaccine antigen expression. A transient and selective inhibition of these immune responses may represent a novel approach for enhancing the potency of vaccines.
