Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the etiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, a respiratory disease leading to severe economic losses in the swine industry. The most widely used commercial vaccines are bacterins comprising inactivated whole cells of A. pleuropneumoniae but these have only been partially effective in preventing disease. Innovative immuno-prophylactic preparations of A. pleuropneumoniae based on ApxI, ApxII, ApxIII, ApxIV toxins and outer membrane proteins, among others (i.e. RnhB, GalU, GalT, HflX, ComL, LolB, LppC), have high protective efficacy in mice and pigs. Some vaccine preparations have efficacy against homologous and heterologous A. pleuropneumoniae serovars, which constitute an important advance to control porcine pleuropneumonia. In this arena, subunit vaccines based on toxins are one of the most advanced and promising developments. Many research groups have focussed on the development of live attenuated vaccines comprising strains with inactivated Apx toxins and/or other virulence factors, their protective efficacy being determined in mouse and/or swine models. Other innovative approaches such as bacteria, yeast and plants as production and oral delivery platforms have been explored in animal models and the definitive host with encouraging results. In addition, further research into A. pleuropneumoniae-based DNA and nano-vaccines, as well as bioencapsulation of antigens in plants, is envisaged. Here, the recent findings and future trends in innovative vaccine development against A. pleuropneumoniae are reviewed and placed in perspective.
