Abstract	Streptococcus suis serotype 2 is an extracellular encapsulated bacterium that causes severe septicemia and meningitis in swine and humans. Albeit crucial in the fight against encapsulated bacteria, the nature of the capsular polysaccharide (CPS)-specific antibody (Ab) response during S. suis type 2 infection is unknown. We compared for the first time the features of CPS-specific versus protein-specific Ab responses during experimental infections with live virulent S. suis type 2 in mice. The primary protein-specific Ab response was dominated by both type 1 and 2 IgG subclasses, whereas IgM titers were more modest. The secondary protein-specific Ab response showed all of the features of a memory response with faster kinetics and boosted the titers of all Ig isotypes. In contrast, the primary CPS-specific Ab response was either inexistent or had titers only slightly higher than those in noninfected animals and was essentially composed of IgM. A poor CPS-specific memory response was observed, with only a moderate boost in IgM titers and no IgG. Both protein- and CPS-specific Ab responses were Toll-like receptor 2 independent. By using S. suis type 2 strains of European or North American origin, the poor CPS-specific Ab response was demonstrated to be independent of the genotypic/phenotypic diversity of the strain within serotype 2. Finally, the CPS-specific Ab response was also impaired and lacked isotype switching in S. suis-infected pigs, the natural host of the bacterium. The better resistance of preinfected animals to reinfection with the same strain of S. suis type 2 might thus more likely be related to the development of a protein rather than CPS Ab response.
