Prefusion RSV F Immunization Elicits Th2-Mediated Lung Pathology in Mice When Formulated With a Th2 (but Not a Th1/Th2-Balanced) Adjuvant Despite Complete Viral Protection 2020-07-29 .txt text/plain 9392 452 46 These data suggest that in the absence of preimmunity, stabilized PreF antigens may still be associated with aberrant Th2 responses that induce lung pathology in response to RSV infection, and can be prevented by formulation with more Th1/Th2-balanced adjuvants that enhance CD4+ and CD8+ IFNγ+ T cell responses. The objective of this study was to determine the capacity of RSV pre-fusion (PreF) vaccines formulated with different adjuvants to generate neutralizing antibody, prevent virus replication, and protect from pulmonary pathology following RSV challenge. Despite lower neutralizing antibody titers in mice immunized with PreF/Advax-SM, as compared to PreF/Alum, both immunization groups had undetectable RSV in their lungs at 4 dpi ( Figure 1F ). Taken together, these data indicate that RSV PreF immunization formulated with Th1-skewing adjuvants, like Advax-SM, provide protection against RSV infection in naïve BALB/c mice as compared to alum by inhibiting viral replication without eliciting enhanced pulmonary pathology. ./cache/cord-295416-y3lvcjqd.txt ./txt/cord-295416-y3lvcjqd.txt
