Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influence of different routes of administration on vaccine efficiency of peptide-pulsed dendritic cells(DC).Methods:Immunization of syngeneic C57BL/6 mice with bone marrow-derived murine DC pulsed with SIINFEKL, a MHC class Ⅰ-restricted peptide from chicken ovalbumin(OVA) sited at 257-264 amino acid residuals were performed via subcutaneous(s.c.), intramuscular(i.m.), intravenous(i.v.), and intraperitoneal(i.p.) administration, respectively. Seven days later the mice were sacrificed and the splenocytes were prepared to analyze antigen-specific CTL lysis for target cells and IFN-?-producting CD8+T lymphocytes using in vivo CTL assay and intracellular cytokine staining(ICS), respectively.Results:The results from in vivo CTL assay showed that the CTL lysis activities were 37.3%?7.3%, 10.8%?2.3%, 56.9%?3.6% and 61.0%?4.2% via s.c., i.m., i.v., and i.p. administration, respectively. Similarly, ICS showed that IFN-?-producting cells in total CD8+T lymphocytes were 0.43%?0.09%, 0.85%?0.12%, 0.76%?0.14% and 0.15%?0.04%, respectively.Conclusion:Different routes of administration has an obvious influence on vaccine efficiency of peptide-pulsed DC. The i.p. immunization with DC elicites the strongest CTL lysis activity, i.v. immunization is next, and s.c., in particular i.m. is the worst, suggesting that i.p. administration may be a safe and effective route for immunization with peptide-pulsed DC against cancers in a mice model.
