Abstract:

To screen new polysaccharide vaccine adjuvants of foot-and-mouth disease,the crude polysaccharide from Cistanche deserticola in Xinjiang(CDCP)and inactivated foot-and-mouth disease viral antigen(FMDV-Ag)were selected to prepare water adjuvant vaccines,ISA-206 oil adjuvant vaccine and adjuvant-free vaccine. ICR mice were immunized by muscle. Serum antibody level,lymphocyte proliferation response,and expressions of CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+ and CD4+CD44+,CD8+CD44+T cell subsets were measured to evaluate the immune enhancement effect after the vaccination,and the behaviors and weights of the mice were monitored for observing the safety of the vaccines. The results showed CDCP substantially enhanced the FMDV-specific antibody level(P<0.05)and significantly increased lymphocyte proliferative responses(P<0.05). T responses were also significantly enhanced(P<0.05),including proliferative responses of CD4+,CD8+,and CD44+ T cells. No abnormal behavior for mice after immunization was observed and the weights of mice also were not affected. CDCP as water adjuvant of FMDV-Ag has a fine immune-promoting effect by enhancing humoral and cellular immune response.
