Sonic extract (SE) from periodontopathic bacteria were studied for their effects on the immune response and adjuvanticity. The preparations of SE from A. actinomycetemcomitans, B. intermedius and B. gingivalis were found to have strong immunomodulating activity against the antigen itself and also sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) in in vivo experiments using C3H/HeN mice. All the SE enhanced the immune response to antigen and SRBC at low concentration. A strong immuno suppressive effect, however, was found at high concentrations of A. actinomycetemcomitans and B. intermedius but not of B. gingivalis. Moreover, these immunosuppressive effects were enhanced by the 3-day-prior injection to SRBC even at low concentrations, including that of B. gingivalis. The suppressive effect of SE from A. actinomycetemcomitans was dependent on the protein fraction in the SE tested, because suppressed anti-SRBC immune response was restored by pronase treatment or heating. Failure to recover immune response, found in a similar experiment using Bacteroides intermedius, indicated that its suppressive effect was due to a heat-stable and pronase-resistant substance. These findings, along with the data presented in this paper, support the hypothesis that patients who harbor these bacteria could suffer systemic immune suppression not only from the initial periodontopathic bacteria but also from secondary infecting bacteria. These suppressive effects may also enhance the pathogenicity of other opportunistic organisms in the gingival crevice.
