Noninfectious rotavirus (strain RRV) induces an immune response in mice which protects against rotavirus challenge.

چکیده
We found that female adult mice parenterally inoculated with noninfectious rotavirus (simian strain RRV) developed virus-specific neutralizing antibodies in the serum; newborn mice from these dams were protected against RRV-induced gastroenteritis. In addition, mice parenterally inoculated with noninfectious RRV developed virus-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte precursors in the spleen. Replication of rotavirus in intestinal epithelial cells was apparently not required to induce rotavirus-neutralizing antibodies or rotavirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Parenteral immunization of infants and young children with noninfectious rotaviruses may induce an immune response which protects against rotavirus challenge.

Immunization with baculovirus-expressed VP4 protein passively protects against simian and murine rotavirus challenge.
A baculovirus-expressed VP4 protein derived from the simian rhesus rotavirus (RRV) was used to parenterally immunize murine dams. VP4-immunized dams developed high levels of neutralizing antibodies against RRV and low levels of cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies against human strains Wa, ST3, and S2 and animal strains SA-11, NCDV, and Eb. Newborn mice suckled on VP4-immunized dams were prot...
متن کاملPassive protection against rotavirus-induced diarrhea by monoclonal antibodies to surface proteins vp3 and vp7.
Monoclonal antibodies directed against two rotavirus surface proteins (vp3 and vp7) as well as a rotavirus inner capsid protein (vp6) were tested for their ability to protect suckling mice against virulent rotavirus challenge. Monoclonal antibodies to two distinct epitopes of vp7 of simian rotavirus strain RRV neutralized RRV in vitro and passively protected suckling mice against RRV challenge....
متن کاملImmunologic correlates of protection against rotavirus challenge after intramuscular immunization of mice.
The capacity of intramuscular (i.m.) inoculation of mice with homologous or heterologous host rotaviruses to induce protection from challenge was evaluated. i.m. inoculation with live, wild-type rotavirus (murine strain EDIM) induced complete protection from viral shedding after challenge for at least 6 weeks after inoculation; protection was correlated with production of virus-specific immunog...
متن کاملMice develop effective but delayed protective immune responses when immunized as neonates either intranasally with nonliving VP6/LT(R192G) or orally with live rhesus rotavirus vaccine candidates.
Rotavirus vaccines are delivered early in life, when the immune system is immature. To determine the effects of immaturity on responses to candidate vaccines, neonatal (7 days old) and adult mice were immunized with single doses of either Escherichia coli-expressed rotavirus VP6 protein and the adjuvant LT(R192G) or live rhesus rotavirus (RRV), and protection against fecal rotavirus shedding fo...
متن کاملRotavirus acceleration of type 1 diabetes in non-obese diabetic mice depends on type I interferon signalling
Rotavirus infection is associated with childhood progression to type 1 diabetes. Infection by monkey rotavirus RRV accelerates diabetes onset in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, which relates to regional lymph node infection and a T helper 1-specific immune response. When stimulated ex vivo with RRV, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) from naïve NOD mice secrete type I interferon, which induces ...
