Mouse antibody and T cell responses following RSPVac nasal vaccination. (A) Vaccination regimen. Female BALB/c mice (n = 6–9) were intranasally vaccinated with 2 doses of RSPVac, 14 days apart. Sera, BALF, and BALF cells were harvested at day 10 post-2nd dose for analysis. Control mice received the protein component without RNA (protein-only). Data was shown as box plots with respective colours indicating vaccine given, showing all values. Error bars represented the highest and lowest values of each box. ELISA was used to measure antibody responses for (B) anti-HA serum IgG, (C) anti-HA BALF IgG, (D) anti-HA BALF IgA, (E) anti-NP, and (F) serum anti-HA IgG subtypes for each of the RSPVac, respectively. (G) Mucosal T cell responses measured by IFNγ+ ELISpot using the immunogen (the protein used to generate RSPVac) stimulation of BALF cells. (H) To analyse lung T cells, female BALB/c mice (n = 6) were intranasally vaccinated with 2 doses of RSPVac, 14 days apart. Lungs were harvested at day 7 post-2nd dose. Single cell suspensions were prepared, and the NP peptide pool of H5N1, H1N1, and H7N9 was used to stimulate lung cells. Resident T cell responses were analysed by intracellular staining and FACS analysis. NP-reactive (I) CD4+ and (J) CD8+ T cells were shown, comparing protein-only and RSPVac-vaccinated. Statistical significance was determined by the Mann–Whitney test. p < 0.05 was considered significant. P-values were shown, and those that were considered insignificant were labelled not significant (ns). Figures A and H were created in BioRender.

Mouse antibody and T cell responses following RSPVac nasal vaccination. (A) Vaccination regimen. Female BALB/c mice (n = 6–9) were intranasally vaccinated with 2 doses of RSPVac, 14 days apart. Sera, BALF, and BALF cells were harvested at day 10 post-2nd dose for analysis. Control mice received the protein component without RNA (protein-only). Data was shown as box plots with respective colours indicating vaccine given, showing all values. Error bars represented the highest and lowest values of each box. ELISA was used to measure antibody responses for (B) anti-HA serum IgG, (C) anti-HA BALF IgG, (D) anti-HA BALF IgA, (E) anti-NP, and (F) serum anti-HA IgG subtypes for each of the RSPVac, respectively.

(H) To analyse lung T cells, female BALB/c mice (n = 6) were intranasally vaccinated with 2 doses of RSPVac, 14 days apart. Lungs were harvested at day 7 post-2nd dose. Single cell suspensions were prepared, and the NP peptide pool of H5N1, H1N1, and H7N9 was used to stimulate lung cells. Resident T cell responses were analysed by intracellular staining and FACS analysis. NP-reactive (I) CD4+ and (J) CD8+ T cells were shown, comparing protein-only and RSPVac-vaccinated. Statistical significance was determined by the Mann–Whitney test. p < 0.05 was considered significant.
