We have investigated the effects of IL-12 and cholera toxin (CT) on
the immune response to tetanus toxoid (TT) given by intranasal or oral
routes. CT inhibited IL-12-induced IFN-
secretion both in vivo and
in vitro. Intranasal administration of IL-12 to mice nasally immunized
with the combined vaccine of TT and CT resulted in increased
TT-specific IgG2a and IgG3 Abs, while IgG1 and IgE Ab responses were
markedly reduced. This shift of the CT-induced immune response toward
Th1 type was associated with TT-specific CD4+ T cells
secreting IFN-
and reduced levels of Th2-type cytokines (i.e., IL-4,
IL-5, IL-6, and IL-10). In contrast, intranasal IL-12 enhanced the
CT-induced serum IgG1 and IgE Ab responses in mice given the combined
vaccine orally. IFN-
secretion by TT-specific CD4+ T
cells was also enhanced; however, Th2-type cytokine responses were
predominant. Mucosal secretory IgA responses to oral or nasal vaccines
were not affected by intranasal IL-12. Thus, intranasal IL-12 delivery
influences Th cell subset development in mucosal inductive sites that
are dependent on the route of vaccine delivery.
