英文摘要
Yersinia pestis, the highly virulent agent of plague, is a biological weapon. Strategies to prevent plague have
been sought for centuries, however neither an FDA approved vaccine nor the molecular basis of plague
immunity are established. Immunization of animals or humans with live-attenuated (non-pigmented) Y.
pestis strains raises protective immunity, however associated side effects prohibit the use of whole cell
vaccines in humans. Previous efforts to develop subunit vaccines combined two protein antigens, F1 and
LcrV, to prevent bubonic and pneumonic plague. This GLRCE funded research program addresses the
need for plague vaccines and also seeks to understand the molecular basis of plague immunity. Our work
demonstrated that Y. pestis F1 pili are dispensable for the pathogenesis of bubonic or pneumonic plague.
During infection, breakthrough mutants emerge that henceforth escape plague immunity derived from either
F1 subunit vaccines or live-attenuated strains. Breakthrough mutants carry IS1541 insertions in cafIA
(which specifies the usher for pilus assembly), indicating that F1 pili are not a suitable vaccine component.
LcrV subunit vaccines were shown to protect mice and non-human primates against bubonic and pneumonic
plague. LcrV displays immune modulatory effects. A variant, V10, lacks these properties, but retains the
ability to raise protective immunity. LcrV is positioned at the tip of type III needles and antibodies against
LcrV protect immune cells from Yersinia type III injection of effector Yops, a virulence mechanism that blocks
bacterial phagocytosis and NF-KB activation by host immune cells. Plague bacteria preferentially inject
phagocytes and this target selection requires CD14 and TLR6 on the surface of immune cells. LcrVmediated
engagement of CD14/TLR2/TLR6 triggers signal transduction cascades, IL-10 release as well as
suppression of proinflammatory cytokines. Goals of this renewal application are to develop subunit vaccines
for plague protection and to appreciate plague immunity at a molecular level by determining the nature of
protective antibodies and Y. pestis escape variants. Other work will determine the contributions of TLR2,
TLR6 and CD14 towards Y. pestis selection of targets for type III injection and unravel the mechanisms
whereby the pathogen evades the development of immunity during plague infections.
