OBJECTIVES: Lassa fever virus (LAS) is transmitted to man by rodent carriers and is fatal in a third of untreated cases. Our goal is to provide immune protection from Lassa fever by mucosal vaccination.
STUDY DESIGN/METHODS: Mice were vaccinated intragastrically with control vectors or with vectors (vaccinia or Salmonella) expressing LAS nucleocapsid protein (NP). Mice were challenged intracranially with a lethal dose of the related arenavirus, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), as a measure of the vaccine's ability to elicit cross-protection.
RESULTS: Salmonella and vaccinia vectors expressing LAS NP each protected a third of the mice from lethal challenge with LCMV. All mice vaccinated with a vector expressing LCMV NP were protected as expected.
CONCLUSIONS: The LAS recombinant Salmonella vector is comparable to the LAS recombinant vaccinia vector in its ability to cross-protect mice from lethal challenge. Nucleocapsid protein is an inadequate immunogen on its own, but provides sufficient cross-protection to make it a useful component of a broadly reactive arenavirus vaccine.
