hemically inactivated, oil adjuvanted foot and mouth disease (FMD) vaccines

are a critical element in FMD control in developing countries. Although these

vaccines are effective in pigs and ruminants, protective immunity is not reached

quickly, is short-lived (~3 months) and is serotype and sometimes strain-specific.

More appropriate vaccine strains that induce broader protection, together with

identification of novel adjuvants that provide a greater duration of immunity

and simplified methods to measure vaccine quality would make a significant

contribution to FMD control and to livestock development in developing countries.

Oil adjuvant vaccines induce variable T cell responses, whilst novel adjuvants can

prime greater and more consistent T cell and humoral responses that may give

longer duration of protection. In our CIDLID funded grant, we had selected eight

new adjuvants as potent immune enhancers, including ligands for TLR receptors

that enhanced Th1 priming in various human or animal vaccines. The aim was

to supplement the oil component of the adjuvant with a novel immunostimulant

that impacts on TLR or related signaling pathways. These eight new adjuvanted

vaccines were tested in a pilot study in cattle at IIL, India. The four most efficacious

ones (MPLA, Poly I: C, Abisco 300 and R848) were retested for Serotype A in a

larger number of cattle at Pirbright, UK. The vaccinated cattle were challenged

on 21 days post-vaccination. The most efficacious adjuvant, poly I: C, tested

further in cattle for serotype O FMD vaccine for 7.5 months to assess its impact

on the duration of immunity. The enhanced humoral and cellular responses were

observed by incorporating poly I: C in FMD vaccine that increased the duration

of immunity in comparison to the conventional oil adjuvant vaccine. Therefore,

we conclude that there is a measurable T cell component to vaccine-induced

protection in addition to humoral antibody component and strengthening this

would improve efficacy and duration of immunity.
