A high titer antibody response against P22 protein immunocomplex is not correlated with protection in naturally tuberculosis-infected goats

Caprine livestock are significant reservoirs of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), contributing to tuberculosis (TB) transmission among animals and humans. The P22 protein immunocomplex (P22PI), derived from bovine tuberculin, shows immunostimulating capacity and is used for TB diagnosis...

The P22 protein immunocomplex (P22PI), derived from bovine tuberculin, shows immunostimulating capacity and is used for TB diagnosis. This study assessed the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of P22PI in two groups of goats: 24 naïve goats (12 immunised, 12 controls) from a TB-free herd, and 24 infected goats (12 immunised, 12 controls), referred to as pre-infected animals, from a M. bovis-infected herd. Both were exposed for 5 months to M. bovis-naturally infected goats. Reactors to single and comparative intradermal tuberculin (SIT and SCIT, respectively) tests and interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) significantly increased (p < 0.05) in both groups 5 months' post-exposure, with no significant differences between immunised and control animals. However, immunised animals exhibited a significantly higher (p < 0.05) antibody response against P22PI. Most naïve animals (83.3%) and all pre-infected animals developed TB-compatible lesions, with extensive necrosis in the lungs and associated lymph nodes, compared to 50% and 83.3% of control animals, respectively. These findings suggest that while P22PI stimulates an intense antibody response under the conditions of the present study, it does not confer protection against TB and may exacerbate disease severity.This research was made possible by funding from ICRAD, an ERA-NET co-funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (https://ec.europa.eu/programmes/horizon2020/en) under Grant Agreement No. 862605, and the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033) through the project “Improving the diagnosis of tuberculosis in domestic ruminants through the use of new antigens and test platforms” (reference PCI2023-143368).
