Bacterial lipoproteins are potent stimulators of innate immune responses and can mediate humoral and cytotoxic T cell responses without additional adjuvants. OprI derived from Pseudomonas aeruginosa was tested in vitro and in vivo for its adjuvant potential in the context of a classical swine fever (CSF) subunit vaccine. OprI activated porcine monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDC), upregulating CD80/86 and MHC class II expression, as well as pro-inflammatory cytokines. OprI enhanced CSFV-antigen-specific lymphocyte proliferation and IFN-γ release. An E2/NS3-based subunit vaccine adjuvanted with OprI stimulated specific immune responses and partial protection against CSFV infection. Although, a water–oil–water adjuvanted vaccine was more potent at protecting animals, this study demonstrates that OprI has immunostimulatory properties for porcine DC, and has potential as vaccine immunostimulant. Further studies are necessary to optimize antigen formulation enabling to translate the in vitro efficacy into a potent vaccine in vivo.
