The adjuvant effect of interleukin-12 in a vaccine against Leishmania major

LC Afonso, TM Scharton, LQ Vieira, M Wysocka, G Trinchieri, and P Scott

Department of Pathobiology, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104.

Protection induced by vaccination depends on the capacity of the vaccine to elicit an appropriate immune response. In leishmaniasis, protection requires leishmanial-specific CD4+ T helper (TH) cells. Vaccination of BALB/c mice with leishmanial antigens and interleukin-12 (IL-12) promoted the development of leishmanial-specific CD4+ TH1 cells. These mice were resistant to subsequent infection with Leishmania major. Thus, IL-12 is an effective adjuvant for the initiation of protective cell-mediated immunity against leishmaniasis and may be an important component in other vaccines that need to induce cell-mediated immunity.
