FI-RSV, but not RSV-MPLA virosomes, primed for increases in expression of Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and Th1 cytokine IL-1b, 6 hour-5 days after infection. By contrast, RSV-MPLA virosomes induced IFN-? transcripts to similar levels as induced by live virus. Animals vaccinated with FI-RSV, but not RSV-MPLA virosomes showed alveolitis, with prominent neutrophil influx and peribronchiolar and perivascular infiltrates. Conclusion: These results show that RSV-MPLA virosomes represent a safe and immunogenic vaccine candidate that warrants evaluation in a clinical setting.
