Biomarkers for canine Leptospira vaccine potency

ABSTRACT: Mandatory potency testing of Leptospira vaccine batches relies partially on in vivo procedures, requiring large numbers of laboratory animals. Cell-based assays could replace in vivo tests if biomarkers indicative of Leptospira vaccine potency are identified. We investigated innate immune responsiveness induced by inactivated L. interrogans serogroups Canicola and Icterohaemorrhagiae, and two bivalent, non-adjuvanted canine Leptospira vaccines containing the same serogroups. First, the transcriptome and proteome analysis of canine 030-D cells stimulated with Leptospira strains, and the corresponding vaccine revealed more than 900 DEGs and 23 DEPs in common to these three stimuli. Second, comparison of responses induced by this Leptospira vaccine and a vaccine from another manufacturer revealed a large overlap in DEGs and DEPs as well, suggesting potential to identify biomarkers of Leptospira vaccine activity. Because not many common DEPs were identified, we selected seven molecules from the identified DEGs, associated with pathways related to innate immunity, of which CXCL-10, IL-1β, SAA, and complement C3 showed increased secretion upon stimulation with both Leptospira vaccines. These molecules could be interesting targets for development of biomarker-based assays in the future. Additionally, this study contributes to the understanding of the mechanisms by which Leptospira vaccines induce innate immune responses in the dog.

Project description:While dendritic cells (DCs) are known to play a major role in the process of vaccination, the mechanisms by which vaccines induce protective immunity in humans remain elusive. Herein, we used gene microarrays to characterize the transcriptional programs induced over time in human monocyte-derived DCs (moDCs) in vitro in response to influenza H1N1 Brisbane, Salmonella enterica and Staphylococcus aureus. We built a data-driven modular analytical framework focused on 204 pathogen-induced gene clusters. The expression of these modules was analyzed in response to 16 well-defined ligands, targeting TLRs, cytoplasmic PAMP receptors and cytokine receptors. This multi-dimensional framework covers the major biological functions of APC, including the IFN response, inflammation, DC maturation, T cell activation, antigen processing, cell motility and histone regulation. This framework was used to characterize the response of monocytes and moDCs to 14 commercially available vaccines. These vaccines displayed quantitatively and qualitatively distinct modular signatures in monocytes and DCs, in particular Fluzone and Pneumovax, highlighting the functional and phenotypic differences between APC subsets. This modular framework allows the application of systems immunology approaches to study early transcriptional changes in human APC subsets in response to pathogens and vaccines, which might guide the development of improved vaccines. 64 samples of IL4 DC, and 64 samples of monocytes stimulated by media (controls, designated 1 and 2 to indicate biological replicates), Menomune (Neisseiria meningitis vaccine, MGL), Fluzone 09-10 (Influenza vaccine, FZ), Havrix (Hepatitis A vaccine, HEPA), Ixiaro (Japanese encephalitis vaccine, JPE), ActHib (Haemophilus influenza vaccine, HIB) and Pneumovax (Pneumococcus vaccine, PVX), Engerix-B (Hepatitis B vaccine, HEPB), Zostavax (Herpes Zoster vaccine, HER), and Gardasil (Human Papilloma virus vaccine, HPV), LPS, Ipol (Polio vaccine, POL), Rabies vaccine (RAB), toxoid-based vaccine (TDAP), Varivax (Varicella vaccine, VAR)

Project description:Anthocyanins and flavonols are natural compounds that accumulate preferentially in grapevine flowers and fruits. They are among the most abundant flavonoids and play a very important role in grape and wine quality. In particular, they confer and stabilize colour and contribute to other organoleptic characteristics of the final product. Their complex profile in terms of concentration and relative abundance varies among cultivars and makes wine typicity. The synthesis of these compounds is mainly regulated at transcriptional level. Flavonoids accumulate at specific stages and in specific tissues during flower and berry development, as a consequence of the timely expression of the genes necessary for their synthesis. Although the general flavonoid pathway has been genetically and biochemically elucidated and the main determinants of colour have been identified, the molecular reasons of the fine variation among grape cultivars are still not completely understood. To shed light on this issue, extreme genotypes of a segregating population derived from the cross Syrah x Pinot Noir were characterized at transcriptional level. The transcriptome analysis along three berry developmental stages of these genotypes has allowed the identification of a large set of transcripts differentially modulated between the two groups. A population derived from M-bM-^@M-^XSyrahM-bM-^@M-^Y x M-bM-^@M-^XPinot NoirM-bM-^@M-^Y consisting of 170 F1 individuals plus the parental lines was characterized for the content of flavonols and anthocyanins in the skins of mature berries (38E-L; 18M-BM-0Brix). Based on the biochemical data, 4 high- and 4 low-flavonol producers (HFPs and LFPs: F1 16, F1 56, F1 63, F1 223 and F1 64, F1 256, F1 260, PN), two of which having also either very high or very low anthocyanin content (HAPs and LAPs: F1 63, F1 223 and F1 256, F1 260), were selected for gene expression analysis. A representative sample for each individual (one biological replicate) was collected at three berry developmental stages (hard green berry (33E-L, PV), veraison (35E-L, 50% coloured berries, VER) and maturity (38E-L, 18M-BM-0Brix, MAT)) during the 2007 season.
