Subunit vaccines require particulate adjuvants to induce the desired immune responses. Pre-clinical manufacturing methods of adjuvants are often batch dependent, which complicates scale-up for large-scale good manufacturing practice (GMP) production. The cationic liposomal adjuvant CAF09b, composed of dioctadecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDA), monomycoloyl glycerol analogue 1 (MMG) and polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)], is currently being clinically evaluated in therapeutic cancer vaccines. Microfluidics is a promising new method for large-scale manufacturing of particle-based medicals, which is scalable from laboratory to GMP production, and a protocol for production of CAF09b by this method was therefore validated. The influence of the manufacture parameters [Ethanol] (20–40% v/v), [Lipid] (DDA and MMG, 6–12 mg/mL) and dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO] (0–10% v/v) on the resulting particle size, colloidal stability and adsorption of poly(I:C) was evaluated in a design-of-experiments study. [Ethanol] and [DMSO] affected the resulting particle sizes, while [Lipid] and [DMSO] affected the colloidal stability. In all samples, poly(I:C) was encapsulated within the liposomes. At [Ethanol] 30% v/v, most formulations were stable at 21 days of manufacture with particle sizes <100 nm. An in vivo comparison in mice of the immunogenicity to the cervical cancer peptide antigen HPV-16 E7 adjuvanted with CAF09b prepared by lipid film rehydration or microfluidics showed no difference between the formulations, indicating adjuvant activity is intact. Thus, it is possible to prepare suitable formulations of CAF09b by microfluidics.

Infectious disease remains a substantial cause of death. To overcome this issue, mucosal vaccine systems are considered to be a promising strategy. Yet, none are approved for clinical use, except for live-attenuated mucosal vaccines, mainly owing to the lack of effective and safe systems to induce antigen-specific immune responses in the mucosal compartment. We have reported that intranasal vaccination of an antigenic protein, with cationic liposomes composed of 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane and 3β-[N-(N′,N′-dimethylaminoethane)-carbamoyl], induced antigen-specific mucosal and systemic antibody responses in mice. However, precise molecular mechanism(s) underlying the mucosal adjuvant effects of cationic liposomes remain to be uncovered. Here, we show that a host double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), released at the site of cationic liposome injection, plays an essential role for the mucosal adjuvanticity of the cationic liposome. Namely, we found that nasal administration of the cationic liposomes induced localized cell death, at the site of injection, resulting in extracellular leakage of host dsDNA. Additionally, in vivo DNase I treatment markedly impaired OVA-specific mucosal and systemic antibody production exerted by cationic liposomes. Our report reveals that host dsDNA, released from local dying cells, acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern that mediates the mucosal adjuvant activity of cationic liposomes.

ABSTRACT Safe and potent new adjuvants are needed for vaccines that are administered to mucosal surfaces. This study was performed to determine if interleukin-1α (IL-1α) combined with other proinflammatory cytokines provided mucosal adjuvant activity for induction of systemic and mucosal anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) peptide antibody when intranasally administered with an HIV peptide immunogen. Nasal immunization of BALB/c mice with 10 μg of an HIV env peptide immunogen with IL-1α, IL-12, and IL-18 on days 0, 7, 14, and 28 induced peak serum anti-HIV peptide immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) and IgA titers of 1:131,072 and 1:7,131, respectively (P = 0.05 versus no adjuvant). The use of cholera toxin (CT) as a mucosal adjuvant induced serum IgG1 and IgA titers of 1:32,768 and 1:776, respectively. The adjuvant combination of IL-1α, IL-12, and IL-18 induced anti-HIV peptide IgA titers of 1:1,176, 1:7,131, and 1:4,705 in saliva, fecal extracts and vaginal lavage, respectively. Titers induced by the use of CT as an adjuvant were 1:223, 1:1,176, and 1:675, respectively. These results indicate that the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1α, IL-12, and IL-18 can replace CT as a mucosal adjuvant for antibody induction and are important candidates for use as mucosal adjuvants with HIV and other vaccines.
