“Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae adhesin-based vaccine”

This project will address the hypothesis that a multi-valent vaccine containing the nontypeable H. influenzae (NTHi) Hap, HMW1, HMW2, and Hia adhesins will stimulate both antibody and IL-17A responses and provide high-level protection against nasopharyngeal colonization by all strains of NTHi. The goals of the project are to elucidate whether addition of HMW1/HMW2 to Hap augments protective immunity in mice, whether addition of Hia to Hap augments protective immunity in mice, and whether sequential immunization with protein and mRNA stimulates an enhanced immune response against Hap, HMW1/HMW2, and Hia and produces increased protection in mice.
