Sustained suppression of IL-18 by employing a vaccine ameliorates intestinal inflammation in TNBS-induced murine colitis

AIM: To develop IL-18 peptide-based virus-like particle vaccines that elicit autoantibodies against IL-18 and to evaluate the in vivo effects of the vaccines in murine colitis. METHODS: Recombinant IL-18 vaccines were constructed, and the effects of the vaccines were evaluated in trinitrobenzene sul...

description AIM: To develop IL-18 peptide-based virus-like particle vaccines that elicit autoantibodies against IL-18 and to evaluate the in vivo effects of the vaccines in murine colitis. METHODS: Recombinant IL-18 vaccines were constructed, and the effects of the vaccines were evaluated in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced acute and chronic colitis in mice. RESULTS: Two murine IL-18 peptide-based vaccines (A and D) were developed, which induced relative long-lasting specific antibodies against IL-18. Vaccine-immunized mouse antisera could partially block IL-18-induced IFN-γ production in vitro. Mice receiving vaccine D, not vaccine A, had a significant decrease in intestinal inflammation, collagen deposition and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in colon tissue. CONCLUSION: IL-18 vaccine may provide a potential therapeutic approach in the treatment of Crohn’s disease.
