Vehicles for Oral Immunization

Vaccine Design

Part of the book series: Pharmaceutical Biotechnology ((PBIO,volume 6))

Abstract

New approaches to vaccine development have become possible since a common mucosal defense system was recognized whereby an antigen interacting with localized lymphoid tissue could stimulate IgA precursor cells that may then migrate to other mucosal surfaces (Craig and Cebra, 1971). Several oral vaccines have been shown to induce IgA responses at mucosal sites distal from that of the immunization, suggesting the feasibility of developing oral vaccines for protection against pathogens that gain entry through other mucosal routes (Table I). Mucosal surfaces represent the largest like-tissue type in vertebrates, providing an important anatomical, mechanical, and chemical barrier to the diverse environmental antigens of microbial and food origin, including pathogenic microorganisms, that are encountered daily. It is not surprising then that it is the most common portal of entry of ubiquitous viral, bacterial, and parasitic infectious agents. Oral immunization, by stimulating the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), presents a promising approach for protecting many secretory surfaces against a variety of infectious diseases. Not only are more lymphocytes found in the gut than in any organ in the body, but IgA is produced in twice the quantity of IgG, and more IgA is poured into the bowel each day than the combined IgG synthesized and released into the blood.
