Immunology; class I MHC-restricted T-cell epitope

ln Vitro |
Using a Salmonella vaccine-Listeria infection model of intracellular infection, we studied the capacity of an attenuated strain of Salmonella carrying T-cell epitopes of listeriolysin (LLO) of L. monocytogenes to elicit epitope-specific T-cell responses. Class II (LLO 215-226) or class I (LLO 91-99) MHC-restricted T-cell epitopes of LLO were inserted within a central, hypervariable domain of the flagellin protein of an attenuated delta aroA Salmonella dublin strain. T cells from Listeria-immunized mice were activated by lysates or heat-killed preparations of Salmonella construct expressing the LLO 215-226 epitope, indicating that LLO 215-226 is processed and presented to T cells when offered to antigen-presenting cells as part of a flagellin-epitope fusion protein. The chimeric flagellin genes were integrated into the chromosome of the flagellin-negative S. dublin strain to obtain stable expression of the epitopes. Immunization with the living, chromosomally integrated Salmonella construct carrying LLO 215-226 epitope as part of the flagellin protein generated T cells reactive with the corresponding LLO peptide, indicating that this chimera can stimulate a class-specific immune response in vitro. The effect of flanking residues on the processing and presentation of MHC class I LLO 91-99 epitope was studied using Salmonella vaccine strains that express chimeric flagellins containing one of three LLO 91-99 inserts: 91-99 (normal flagellin amino acids as flanking residues); KK91-99KK (Lys-Lys flanking residues); and AAA91-99AAA (Ala-Ala-Ala flanking residues)[1].

ln Vivo |
Spleen cells from mice immunized with the KK91–99KK flagellin chimeric Salmonella strain showed the greater CTL response indicating that Lys-Lys flanking residues are associated with enhanced immunogenicity, possibly by facilitating the proteolytic excision of the epitope in the endosomal compartment of antigen-presenting cells. A statistically significant decrease in the number of hepatic and/or splenic bacteria was achieved after Listeria challenge in mice immunized with Salmonella constructs expressing either MHC class II LLO 215–226 or class I LLO KK91–99KK flagellin chimera, showing that the immunogenicity of these constructs is associated with an epitope-specific increased resistance to infection[1].

DNA techiques[1]
Routine methods for recombinant DNA were as described by Maniatis et al. Plasmids were purified by the alkaline lysis method of Birnboim and Daly”. Bacterial strains were transformed by electroporation using the method developed by Dower et af.18. DNA sequencing was performed using the dideoxy chain- termination method of Sanger er ~1.‘~. For insertion of ofigonucleotides specifying T-cell epitopes in the cloned flagellin gene, the complementary oligonucleotides were annealed, kinased and blunt-end ligated to a phosphatase- treated EcoRV-digested DNA of pLS408’. Plasmid pLS408 has a 48 bp deletion (EcoRV fragment) in the central hy~rvariable region of the flagellin-coding sequence of the friC (HI-d) gene of S. muendren. The unique EcoRV site of pLS408 allows the blunt-end insertion of oligonucleotides. The ligated product was used to transform a flagellin-deficient E. co/i strain, CL447’, and transformants were selected on ampicillin plates. Recombinant plasmid carrying the chimeric flagellin gene, were sequenced using 18 bp primers located 78 bp upstream and 69 bp downstream from the insertion point. |
Cell Assay |
The bacterial strains used in this report are shown in Table 1. Strains were grown at 37°C on Luria-Bertani broth (Difco Laboratories) supplemented with appropriate antibiotics. Minimal medium was made according to MilIer15. For whole bacterial @sates, log-phase growth cultures were pelleted by ce~t~fugation and washed twice with sterile PBS. Bacterial suspensions were lysed by sonication using Sonifier 250 ultrasonic cell disruptor for 1 min in bursts of about 10 s each. Protein concentration was determined using the Bradford protein assay reagent, For heat-killed preparations, Iog-phase growth cultures were centrifuged and washed twice in sterile PBS. Cell density was adjusted to 1 x IO9 ml-’ by determining the absorbance. Bacterial suspensions were heated at 80°C for 1 h and their viability was checked by plating aliquots onto LB-agar[1].

Animal Protocol |
Mice and immuni~rion protocol [1]
Balb/cByJ and C3Heb/Hej female mice, 6-8 weeks old, were obtained from Jackson Laboratories. Mice were immunized i.p. with a single dose of 1 x lo6 colony-forming units (c.f.u.) of recombinant Salmonella strains. Eight weeks after the injection, spleens were harvested from the immunized mice. Spleens from three to four mice in each group were pooled and used for IL-2 and CTL assays. In vivo protection assays[1] Balb/cByJ mice were immunized i.p. with 1 x lo6 c.f.u. of recombinant Scrlvrzonellrrstrains. Eight weeks thereafter, immunized mice were challenged i.p. with 2 x lo4 c.f.u. of L. monocytogenes (ATCC43251). The LD50 of this strain of L. nronoeytogenes for Balb/cByJ mice is < 5 x lo6 c.f.u./animal. Livers and spleens were harvested 72 h after infection and were homogenized in sterile PBS containing 0.5% NP40. Homogenates were serially diluted and plated on BHI-agar. Plates were incubated at 37’C for 24 h and the total number of colony-forming units was determined for each organ. The Mann-Whitney r test was employed in the analysis of results |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
