Delivery of dendritic cells targeting 3M2e-HA2 nanoparticles with a CpG adjuvant via lysosomal escape of Salmonella enhances protection against H9N2 avian influenza virus by Futing Jia, Wenfeng Wang, Yawen Tian, Ainul Zahra, Yingkai He, Chongbo Ge, Tongyu Zhang, Mingyue Wang, Jingshuo Gong, Gerui Zhang, Guilian Yang, Wentao Yang, Chunwei Shi, Jianzhong Wang, Haibin Huang, Xin Cao, Yang Zeng, Nan Wang, Zhannan Wang, Chunfeng Wang, Yanlong Jiang

“…All the constructed plasmids were then transformed into the sifA gene-deficient Salmonella vector χYL56 for oral immunization.The results showed that sifA-deficient Salmonella could efficiently increase antigen-specific mucosal sIgA antibody titers, especially in alveolar lavage samples, whereas the presence of the phage-54 nanobody could dramatically increase intracellular IFN-γ mRNA levels, indicating its ability to enhance the Th1-type immune response. Finally, the presence of the CpG adjuvant clearly increased T-cell proliferation and promoted DC activation, with elevated splenic TLR21 levels observed. …”
