摘要
Abstract BACKGROUND To improve the adjuvant activity of polysaccharides from Eucommia ulmoides leaves (PsEUL) in inducing an effective immune response against ovalbumin (OVA), PsEUL were conjugated to OVA using the N ‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)‐ N ′‐ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) method. The synthesized PsEUL‐OVA was encapsulated using phytantriol and F127 to produce PsEUL‐OVA cubosomes (Cubs), a novel delivery system. The physicochemical properties and immune modulation effects of this novel delivery system were explored. RESULTS In vitro , PsEUL‐OVA/Cubs carrying large amounts of OVA were rapidly phagocytized by macrophages and upregulated macrophage proliferation, thereby stimulating cytokine production (interleukin (IL)‐6 and IL‐4). In vivo , PsEUL‐OVA/Cubs increased the titer of OVA‐specific antibodies (immunoglobulin (Ig)G, IgG2b, IgG2a and IgG1) and cytokine levels (IL‐2, IL‐6, IL‐4 and interferon‐γ). In addition, the cubosomes promoted the differentiation of CD8 + and CD4 + T cells in the spleen and the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs). These results indicated that PsEUL‐OVA/Cubs stimulated both cellular and humoral immune responses by enhancing the phagocytic activity of DCs and macrophages and increasing the antigen presentation efficiency. CONCLUSION Collectively, the findings demonstrate that PsEUL‐antigen/Cubs can be a useful delivery vehicle with immune response‐promoting effects. Therefore, this study lays the foundation for the development of novel adjuvant–antigen delivery systems with potential applications in vaccine design. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.
