A recombinant lactococcus lactis live vector vaccine and a preparation method and application thereof
By expressing the UreA gene, the urease subunit of Helicobacter pylori, in Lactococcus lactis, the problem of oral vaccine delivery and immunization efficacy in the gastrointestinal tract was solved, achieving efficient mucosal immune response and immune protection.

AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, oral Helicobacter pylori vaccines have weak immune effects, are difficult to function effectively in the gastrointestinal tract, and suffer from problems such as gastric acid corrosion and protease degradation, making it difficult to maintain antigen activity in the long term and making it difficult to select delivery vectors.
Using Lactococcus lactis as a live vector, the UreA gene, the urease subunit of Helicobacter pylori, was linked to a plasmid expression vector and electroporated into Lactococcus lactis, which expressed and secreted the UreA protein, stimulating the intestinal mucosal immune system to produce an immune response.
It achieved a highly efficient mucosal immune response. The oral lactococcal vaccine produced an immune protection rate of over 60% in mice and effectively inhibited the colonization of Helicobacter pylori.
