Feline model of acute nipah virus infection and protection with a soluble glycoprotein-based subunit vaccine.
Nipah virus (NiV) and Hendra virus (HeV) are paramyxoviruses capable of causing considerable morbidity and mortality in a number of mammalian species, including humans. Case reports from outbreaks and previous challenge experiments have suggested that cats were highly susceptible to NiV infection, responding with a severe respiratory disease and systemic infection. Here we have assessed the cat...
متن کاملProtective Immunity in Mice Following Immunization with the Cochleate-Based Subunit Influenza Vaccines
High morbidity and mortality of influenza virus infection makes it an important disease world-wide. Mouse is a very well-studied animal model for this disease with similar manifestation to human disease. It would be desirable to induce mucosal as well as circulating immune responses to obtain protection from infection and to decrease the spread of the virus. Cell mediated immunity (proliferativ...
متن کاملA Hendra virus G glycoprotein subunit vaccine protects African green monkeys from Nipah virus challenge.
In the 1990s, Hendra virus and Nipah virus (NiV), two closely related and previously unrecognized paramyxoviruses that cause severe disease and death in humans and a variety of animals, were discovered in Australia and Malaysia, respectively. Outbreaks of disease have occurred nearly every year since NiV was first discovered, with case fatality ranging from 10 to 100%. In the African green monk...
متن کاملExpression of the Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 Glycoprotein D in Baculovirus Expression System and Evaluation of Its Immunogenicity in Guinea Pigs
Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is highly prevalent and major cause of genital herpes in humans. The life-long nature of infection and the increasing prevalence of genital herpes imply that vaccination is the best strategy for controlling the spread of infection and limiting HSV disease. HSV glycoprotein D (gD) is one of the most important viral immunogen which has an essential ...
متن کاملFeline immunodeficiency virus subunit vaccines that induce virus neutralising antibodies but no protection against challenge infection.
Three experimental vaccines against feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), all based on viral antigens presented via immune stimulating complexes (iscoms), were tested for their capacity to induce protection in cats from FIV infection. The respective vaccines consisted of FIV propagated in Crandell feline kidney (CrFK) cells (FIV-iscoms); FIV-iscoms spiked with recombinant vaccinia virus expresse...
