Genetic basis for immunological aberrations in poliovirus Sabin serotype 3 strains imported in the netherlands.

چکیده
During the characterization of poliovirus type 3 strains imported in The Netherlands, Sabin serotype 3 strains that reacted with both specific antisera against Sabin-like (vaccine) and non-Sabin-like (wild-type) strains by the intratypic strain differentiation assay have been found. The present study was done to determine the pathogenic potential of these virus strains for humans. Characterization of these so-called double-reactive strains with neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the major antigenic sites of serotype 3 Sabin virus led to the identification of two groups with different antigenic properties. Six of the seven strains were resistant to neutralization with MAbs against sites 2B and 3B and one strain was neutralized by all the MAbs in a manner similar to that for the Sabin serotype 3 virus. Partial sequencing of the coding regions confirmed the antigenic changes for all six antigenically distinct strains. By inoculation of these viruses into transgenic mice which express the human poliovirus receptor, one strain was identified as highly neurovirulent, three were identified as intermediate, and three were identified as attenuated. Sera from vaccinated persons efficiently neutralized the mutants. Our data suggest that some double-reactive strains are a potential risk to the unvaccinated community but not to the vaccinated population.

Genetic determinants of cell type-specific poliovirus propagation in HEK 293 cells.
The ability of poliovirus to propagate in neuronal cells can be reduced by introducing appropriate nucleotide substitutions into the viral genome. Specific mutations scattered throughout the poliovirus genome yielded the live attenuated vaccine strains of poliovirus. Neuron-specific propagation deficits of the Sabin strains are partially encrypted within a confined region of the internal riboso...

The last case of infection with wild-type poliovirus indigenous to China was reported in 1994. In 2011, a poliomyelitis outbreak caused by imported wide-type poliovirus occurred in Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region. Here, we report the results of enterovirus (EV) isolation from Xinjiang students that returned to school in Shandong after summer vacation during this outbreak. Stool specimens from...
متن کاملIsolation of sabin-like polioviruses from wastewater in a country using inactivated polio vaccine.
From 2001 to 2004, Switzerland switched from routine vaccination with oral polio vaccine (OPV) to inactivated polio vaccine (IPV), using both vaccines in the intervening period. Since IPV is less effective at inducing mucosal immunity than OPV, this change might allow imported poliovirus to circulate undetected more easily in an increasingly IPV-immunized population. Environmental monitoring is...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The poliovirus serotype identification and intratypic differentiation by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) assay is suitable for serotype mixtures but not for intratypic mixtures of wild and vaccine poliovirus strains. This study was undertaken to develop wild poliovirus 1 and 3 (WPV1 and WPV3) specific rRT-PCR assays for use. METHODS ...
