To study the possibility of preventing lung inflammation and decreasing the progression of the infection by vaccination, we have developed a rat model of chronic P. aeruginosa lung infection. Rats were immunized with P. aeruginosa whole-cell sonicates, O-polysaccharide toxin A conjugate, an alginate-toxin A conjugate, or native alginate. Control animals received sterile saline or incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA). The macroscopic (mean score, 2.4 versus 2.7 to 3.2) (P <0.05) and microscopic (mean score, 2.0 versus 2.1 to 2.8) pathologic abnormalities were less severe in the control rats injected with sterile saline than in the immunized rats and the IFA group. The more severe lung abnormalities observed in immunized rats could be due to the result of immune complex-mediated lung tissue damage. The histopathologic results in the saline control rats were characterized by acute inflammation dominated by numerous polymorphonuclear leukocytes surrounding the alginate beads (microcolonies), as in CF patients. In contrast, the inflammatory response in the IFA group and in the immunized rats had changed from an acute-type inflammation to a chronic-type inflammation dominated by mononuclear leukocytes and scattered granulomas. Cross-reacting antibodies were induced by the two alginate vaccines, and most immunized animals developed a significant (P <0.001) antibody titer elevation (in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) of the immunoglobulin M (IgM), IgG, and IgA classes against the homologous antigens. The bacterial clearance was significantly (P <0.05) more efficient in most immunized rats than in the control rats given sterile saline. The present study shows that none of the vaccines could completely prevent chronic lung inflammation 4 weeks after challenge.
