In order to protect DNA vaccine against degradation in alimentary tract of fish, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles encapsulating vaccine were prepared using W/O/W emulsification combined with spray drying technique in our laboratory. The characteristics of PLGA nanoparticles were described as follows: (1) shape, spherical; (2) size, <500nm; (3) yield, ∼96.2%; loading percentage, ∼0.5%; encapsulation efficiency, ∼63.7%; supercoiled conformation percentage, ∼65%; (4) release dynamics, gradual release. In vitro transfection in SISK cells showed that PLGA nanoparticles could be utilized to transfect eukaryotes. After oral administration, FITC-labeled PLGA nanoparticles were detected in blood of fish, and RNA containing major capsid protein (MCP) gene information existed in various tissues of fish 10–90 days. In addition, the analysis of immune parameters in sera of treatment fish showed that: (1) infection rate of LCDV post-challenge, ∼16.7%; (2) prophenoloxidase, superoxide dismutase, respiratory burst, lysozyme and antibody levels, increased significantly (p<0.05); (3) activities of serum complement, changed a little (p>0.05). Pearson’s correlation displayed that correlation of immune factors mentioned above (not including serum complement) were all positive for fish vaccinated. The data in this study suggested that PLGA nanoparticles were promising carriers for plasmid DNA vaccine and might be used to vaccinate fish by oral approach.
