[h=3]Abstract[/h] While T cell contribution to IAV immunity is appreciated, data comparing methods to evaluate IFN-γ production by IAV-specific T cells elicited following vaccination is limited. To understand the differential immunogenicity between live-attenuated influenza virus (LAIV) and whole-inactivated virus (WIV) vaccines in relation to induction of peripheral T cell responses, ELISpot and ELISA were used to assess IFN-γ production by peripheral lymphocytes following antigen restimulation. Following restimulation, peripheral blood lymphocytes from WIV-vaccinated pigs had a greater quantity of IFN-γ secreting cells (SC) and IFN-γ secreted compared to LAIV vaccinated and non-vaccinated (NV) pigs. Pig age at time of WIV vaccination significantly impacted peripheral IAV-specific IFN-γ recall response, as did the inclusion of adjuvant in the WIV vaccine. Collectively, these data indicate that peripheral IAV-specific IFN-γ recall responses are not predictive of LAIV vaccination status, thus, are unlikely to be a useful surrogate for evaluating LAIV immunogenicity and predicting cross-protection. However, these data suggest that the evaluation of peripheral IFN-γ recall responses may be useful for identifying factors, such as animal age or vaccine formulation, that may impact parenterally-delivered WIV vaccine immunogenicity. Overall, results did not differ based upon the assay used to evaluate IFN-γ recall responses. Therefore, either ELISpot or ELISA could serve as a measure for evaluating IAV-specific IFN-γ cell-mediated immune responses in swine.
