FMD is one of the most economically damaging diseases that affect livestock animals. In this study FMD Virus type A87/IRN
was multiplied on BHK21 cells. The virus was titrated by TCID50 method, it was 10 7.5/ml. The FMD virus samples were inactivated by gamma ray from 60Co source at −20°C. Safety test was done by IBRS2 monolayer
cell culture method, also antigenicity of irradiated and un-irradiated virus samples were studied by Complement Fixation Test.
The Dose/Survival curve for irradiated FMD Virus was drawn, the optimum dose range for inactivation of FMDV type A87/IRN and
unaltered antigenicity was obtained 40–44 kGy. The inactivated virus samples by irradiation and ethyleneimine (EI) were formulated
respectively as vaccine with Al(OH)3 gel and other substances. The vaccines were inoculated to Guinea pigs and the results
of Serum Neutralization Test for the normal vaccine and radio-vaccine showed protective titer after 8 months. The potency
test of the inactivated vaccines was done, PD50 Value of the vaccines were calculated 7.06 and 5.6 for inactivated vaccine
by EI and gamma irradiation respectively. 相似文献

Foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) has been demonstrated to infect dendritic cells (DC) and reduced its ability to stimulate host immune responses. This study aimed to determine whether non-replicating FMDV could induce apoptosis of the host immune cells. In this study, we have demonstrated that bone morrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were induced to undergo apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner, which was determined by the annexin-V staining, DNA fragmentation, and TUNEL staining methods, after they were treated with the chemically inactivated FMDV in vitro. The initiation of apoptosis was apparently via an interaction of the integrin receptor on BMDCs and the RGD motif within the VP1 capsid protein of FMDV. The initiation activated a cascade of apoptotic pathway including reduced expression of Bcl-2, activation of caspases, and release of cytochrome c from mitochondria. Pretreatment with BMDCs with LPS prevented the inactivated FMDV induced apoptosis, suggesting immature BMDCs are susceptible to such apoptosis. Taken together, the data demonstrate that the inactivated FMDV induces the apoptosis in BMDCs via the integrin receptor and subsequently triggers the apoptosis signal, suggesting that such induction of apoptosis is likely to impair immune responses against FMDV infection. 相似文献

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes an acute vesicular disease of farm animals. The development of successful control strategies is limited by an incomplete understanding of the immune response to FMDV. Dendritic cells (DC) mediate the induction of immunity to pathogens, but their role in FMDV infection of cattle is uncharacterized. Bovine monocyte-derived DC (moDC) were exposed to integrin-binding and cell culture-adapted strains of FMDV in vitro. MoDC were not largely susceptible to infection by integrin-binding FMDV but were susceptible to culture-adapted virus. Binding specific antibodies to integrin-binding FMDV at neutralizing or subneutralizing IgG concentrations significantly enhanced infection via CD32 (FcγR). Monocytes also expressed CD32 but were nonsusceptible to FMDV immune complex (IC) infection, indicating a requirement for additional factors involved in cellular susceptibility. Infection of moDC by the FMDV IC was productive and associated with high levels of cell death. Infected moDC were unable to efficiently stimulate FMDV-specific CD4(+) memory T cells, but exposing moDC to IC containing inactivated FMDV resulted in significantly increased T cell stimulation. Thus, neutralized FMDV concurrently loses its ability to infect susceptible cells while gaining the capacity to infect immune cells. This represents a change in the tropism of FMDV that could occur after the onset of the antibody response. We propose that IC could dynamically influence the anti-FMDV immune response and that this may explain why the early immune response to FMDV has evolved toward T cell independence in vivo. Moreover, we propose that DC targeting could prove useful in the development of effective vaccines against FMDV. 相似文献

In the early eighties it was realized that the ultimate vaccine would be a synthetic peptide. Major efforts were put into the development of a synthetic vaccine for foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) for which even today no alternative exists besides the classical vaccine based on inactivated virus. Despite impressive progress, a peptide vaccine that could match the classical vaccine with respect to efficacy (i.e. full protection of all animals after a single vaccination) has not materialized.This has led to the belief that synthetic vaccines were not possible. However, in the early nineties we developed a synthetic peptide vaccine for canine parvovirus that did match the classical vaccine based on inactivated virus (i.e. protected all animals). Based on the difference of FMDV (an RNA virus) and canine parvovirus (a DNA virus), we suggested that in the case of FMDV, more than one antigenic site should be used, instead of the single one used previously. In our opinion multiple sites are necessary to prevent the development of escape mutants of FMDV. Unfortunately, the additional sites of FMDV are highly discontinuous. Until recently it was impossible to reconstruct these sites in the form of synthetic peptides. In the past few years, new methods have been developed that allow recombination of such sites into synthetic molecules. If successfully applied to FMDV, synthetic peptide vaccines and many others may become feasible in the near future. Moreover, the ability to mimic complex discontinuous sites by synthetic peptides will have a major impact on the rapidly developing area of therapeutic vaccines. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to investigate the decontamination of pig slurry containing exotic viruses of pigs, foot AND mouth disease virus (FMDV), Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) AND classical swine fever virus (CSFV). Laboratory-scale decontamination experiments showed that FMDV, ADV and CSFV were heat inactivated in slurry within 3 min at 67 degrees C, 3 min at 62 degrees C and 3 min at 60 degrees C and in Glasgow Eagles medium within 5 min at 67 degrees C, 4 min at 65 degrees C and 2 min at 65 degrees C, respectively. At pilot scale, FMDV was heat inactivated at 66 degrees C in water and 61 degrees C in slurry, ADV at 61 degrees C in water or slurry and CSFV at 62 degrees C in water and 50 degrees C in slurry. Treatment of pig slurry for the inactivation of exotic viruses may be achieved through the use of a thermal pilot plant operating in continuous mode. The work demonstrates the suitability of thermal treatment in ensuring the safety of pig slurry following a disease outbreak. 相似文献

DNA‐based vaccination is an attractive alternative for overcoming the disadvantages of inactivated virus vaccines; however, DNA vaccines alone often generate only weak immune responses. In this study, the efficacy of LMS as a chemical adjuvant on a DNA vaccine (pVIR‐P12A‐IL18‐3C) encoding the P1‐2A and 3C genes of the FMDV and swine IL‐18, which provides protection against FMDV challenge, was tested. All test pigs were administered booster vaccinations 28 days after the initial inoculation, and were challenged with 1000 ID 50 FMDV O/NY00 20 days after the booster vaccination. Positive and negative control groups were inoculated with inactivated virus vaccine and PBS respectively. The DNA vaccine plus LMS induced greater humoral and cell‐mediated responses than the DNA vaccine alone, as evidenced by higher concentrations of neutralizing and specific anti‐FMDV antibodies, and by higher concentrations of T‐lymphocyte proliferation and IFN‐γ production, respectively. FMDV challenge revealed that the DNA vaccine plus LMS provided higher protection than the DNA vaccine alone. This study demonstrates that LMS may be useful as an adjuvant for improving the protective efficiency of DNA vaccination against FMDV in pigs. 相似文献

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is caused by the FMD virus (FMDV) and results in severe economic losses in livestock farming. For rapid FMD diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, an effective antibody against FMDV is needed. Here, we developed a high-affinity antibody against FMDV by FACS-based high throughput screening of a random library. With the FITC-conjugated VP1 epitope of FMDV and high-speed FACS sorting, we screened the synthetic antibody (scFv) library in which antibody variants are displayed in the periplasm of Escherichia coli. After three rounds of sorting, we isolated one antibody fragment (#138-scFv) against the VP1 epitope of FMDV. Next, to improve its affinity, a mutation library of #138-scFV was constructed by error-prone PCR and screened by FACS. After three rounds of sorting, we isolated one antibody (AM-32 scFv), which has a higher binding affinity ( KD = 42.7 nM) than that of the original #138-scFv. We also confirmed that it specifically binds to whole inactivated FMDV. 相似文献

Infection by foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is triggered by the acidic pH in endosomes after virus uptake by receptor-mediated endocytosis. However, dissociation of the FMDV 146S particle in mildly acidic conditions renders inactivated foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines much less effective. Type Asia1 FMDV mutants with increased resistance to acid inactivation were selected to study the molecular basis of viral resistance to acid-induced disassembly and improve the acid stability of FMDV. Sequencing of capsid-coding regions revealed four amino acid replacements (VP1 N17D, VP2 H145Y, VP2 G192D, and VP3 K153E) in the viral population of the acid-selected 10th passage. We performed single or combined mutagenesis using a reverse genetic system, and our results provide direct experimental evidence that VP2 H145Y or VP1 N17D substitution confers an acid-resistant phenotype to type Asia1 FMDV. 相似文献

The rates of synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline (THβC) and methylene-β-phenylethylimine (MβΦEI) from 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) and tryptamine and β-phenylethylamine (βΦEA) respectively have been measured in cerebellum, corpus striatum, and the remainder of the brain from male and female rats at six specific ages after birth. With either substrate the specific activity of the reaction was higher in cerebellum than in corpus striatum until approximately 31 days after birth. The fluctuations in neonatal production of THβC and MβΦEI in cerebellum were nearly parallel except around six days, when THβC production peaked and MβΦEI production dropped considerably. The regional differences in the neonatal patterns of THβC and MβΦEI formation hint that the formaldehyde-forming enzyme (whether or not it is methylane-tetrahydrofolate reductase as we believe) might be related to structural and functional development in specific brain regions. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is the most economically important and highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals worldwide. Control of the disease has been mainly based on large-scale vaccinations with whole-virus inactivated vaccines. In recent years, a series of outbreaks of type O FMD occurred in China (including Chinese Taipei, Chinese Hong Kong) posed a tremendous threat to Chinese animal husbandry. Its causative agent, type O FMDV, has evolved into three topotypes (East-South Asia (ME-SA), Southeast Asia (SEA), Cathay (CHY)) in these regions, which represents an important obstacle to disease control. The available FMD vaccine in China shows generally good protection against ME-SA and SEA topotype viruses infection, but affords insufficient protection against some variants of the CHY topotype. Therefore, the choice of a new vaccine strain is of fundamental importance. RESULTS: The present study describes the generation of a full-length infectious cDNA clone of FMDV vaccine strain and a genetically modified virus with some amino acid substitutions in antigenic sites 1, 3, and 4, based on the established infectious clone. The recombinant viruses had similar growth properties to the wild O/HN/CHA/93 virus. All swine immunized with inactivated vaccine prepared from the O/HN/CHA/93 were fully protected from challenge with the viruses of ME-SA and SEA topotypes and partially protected against challenge with the virus of CHA topotype at 28 days post-immunization. In contrast, the swine inoculated with the genetically modified vaccine were completely protected from the infection of viruses of the three topotypes. CONCLUSIONS: Some amino acid substitutions in the FMDV vaccine strain genome did not have an effect on the ability of viral replication in vitro. The vaccine prepared from genetically modified FMDV by reverse genetics significantly improved the protective efficacy to the variant of the CHA topotype, compared with the wild O/HN/CHA/93 virus. Thus, the full-length cDNA clone of FMDV can be a useful tool to develop genetically engineered FMDV vaccine candidates to help control porcinophilic FMD epidemics in China. 相似文献

Mixed infection of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is devastating to swine populations. To develop an effective vaccine that can protect the pigs from the infection of PCV2 and FMDV, we used the neutralizing B cell epitope region (aa 135–160) of FMDV to replace the regions aa 123–151 and aa 169–194 of the PCV2b Cap protein to generate a recombinant protein designated as Capfb. The Capfb protein was expressed in Escherichia coli system and the purified Capfb protein assembled into virus-like particles (VLPs) through dialysis. The ability of the Capfb protein to induce effective immune response against FMDV and PCV2b was tested in mice and guinea pigs. The results showed that the Capfb-VLPs could elicit anti-PCV2b and anti-FMDV antibody response in mice and guinea pigs without inducing antibodies against decoy epitope. Moreover, the Capfb-VLPs could enhance the percentage and activation of B cells in lymph nodes when the mice were stimulated with inactivated FMDV or PCV2b. These data suggested that the Capfb-VLPs could be an efficacious candidate antigen for developing a novel PCV2b-FMDV bivalent vaccine. 相似文献

口蹄疫(foot-and-mouth disease,FMD)是由口蹄疫病毒(foot-and-mouth disease virus,FMDV)引起的一种急性、烈性、高度接触性传染病,严重危害畜牧养殖业健康发展。口蹄疫灭活疫苗是口蹄疫防控的主导产品,为控制口蹄疫流行起到了重要作用;但是也存在抗原不稳定、在生产制备过程中存在因病毒灭活不彻底而散毒的风险、生产成本较高等问题。与传统的微生物和动物生物反应器相比,通过转基因技术以植物作为生物反应器生产抗原蛋白,具有成本低廉、安全便捷、易于储运等一些优势,且无需蛋白提取纯化过程,可直接食用免疫;但也存在着表达量低、控制性差等问题。因此,通过植物生物反应器表达口蹄疫病毒抗原蛋白,可能是一种具有一定优势但仍需不断优化的疫苗生产手段。本文综述了在植物中表达活性蛋白的主要策略,以及通过植物生物反应器表达口蹄疫病毒抗原蛋白的研究进展,并讨论了目前面临的问题与挑战,以期为相关工作提供一定的借鉴和参考。 相似文献

The G-H loop of VP1 (residues 132 to 159) of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a prominent feature on the virion surface and has an important role in vaccine efficacy, generation of antigenic variants, and cell binding. Using an infectious cDNA of FMDV, we have constructed serotype A viruses in which the G-H loop has been substituted with the homologous sequences from serotype O or C. These chimeric viruses replicated to high titer and displayed plaque morphologies similar to those of wild-type viruses, demonstrating that the functions provided by the loop can be readily exchanged between serotypes. Monoclonal antibody analyses showed that epitopes contained within the loop were transferred to the chimeras and that epitopes encoded by the type A backbone were maintained. Chemically inactivated vaccines prepared from chimeric viruses induced antibodies in guinea pigs that neutralized both type A and either type O or type C viruses. Swine inoculated with the A/C chimera vaccine also produced cross-reactive antibodies, were protected from challenge with the type A virus, and partially protected against challenge with type C. These studies emphasize the importance of epitopes outside of the G-H loop in protective immunity in swine, which is a natural host of FMDV. 相似文献

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals. It produces severe economic losses in the livestock industry. Currently available vaccines are based on inactivated FMD virus (FMDV). The use of empty capsids as a subunit vaccine has been reported to be a promising candidate because it avoids the use of virus in the vaccine production and conserves the conformational epitopes of the virus. In this report, we explored transient gene expression (TGE) in serum-free suspension-growing mammalian cells for the production of FMDV recombinant empty capsids as a subunit vaccine. The recombinant proteins produced, assembled into empty capsids and induced protective immune response against viral challenge in mice. Furthermore, they were recognized by anti-FMDV bovine sera. By using this technology, we were able to achieve expression levels that are compatible with the development of a vaccine. Thus, TGE of mammalian cells is an easy to perform, scalable and cost-effective technology for the production of a recombinant subunit vaccine against FMDV. 相似文献

Suppression of host protein synthesis in cells infected by poliovirus and certain other picornaviruses involves inactivation of the cap-binding protein complex. Inactivation of this complex has been correlated with the proteolytic cleavage of p220, a component of the cap-binding protein complex. Since picornaviral RNA is not capped, it continues to be translated as the cap-binding protein complex is inactivated. The cleavage of p220 can be induced to occur in vitro, catalyzed by extracts from infected cells or by reticulocyte lysates translating viral RNA. Expression of polioviral protease 2A is sufficient to induce p220 cleavage, and the presence in 2A of an 18-amino-acid sequence representing a putative cysteine protease active site correlates with the ability of different picornaviruses to induce p220 cleavage. Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) infection induces complete cleavage of p220, yet the FMDV genome codes for a 2A protein of only 16 amino acids, which does not include the putative cysteine protease active site. Using cDNA plasmids encoding various regions of the FMDV genome, we have determined that the leader protein is required to initiate p220 cleavage. This is the first report of a function for the leader protein, other than that of autocatalytic cleavage from the FMDV polyprotein. 相似文献

Background Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists reportedly have potent antiviral and antitumor activities and may be a new kind of adjuvant for enhancing immune efficacy. Resiquimod (R848) is an imidazoquinoline compound with potent antiviral activity and functions through the TLR7/TLR8 MyD88-dependent signaling pathway. Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)] is a synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA that induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by the activation of NF-κB through TLR3. This study investigated the potential of R848 and poly(I:C) as an adjuvant 146S foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) vaccine formulated with aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH) 3). Results Antibody titers to FMDV and CD8 + T cells were markedly enhanced in mice immunized to 146S FMDV?+?Al(OH) 3?+?R848?+?poly(I:C) compared with mice immunized to FMDV?+?ISA206. IFN-γ secretion substantially increased compared with IL-4 secretion by splenic T cells stimulated with FMDV antigens in vitro, suggesting that R848, poly(I:C), and with Al(OH) 3 together biased the immune response toward a Th1-type direction. Conclusions These results indicated that the R848 and poly(I:C) together with Al(OH) 3 enhanced humoral and cellular immune responses to immunization with 146S FMDV antigens. Thus, this new vaccine formulation can be used for FMDV prevention. 相似文献

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals that inflicts severe economic losses in the livestock industry. In 2009, FMDV serotype A caused outbreaks of FMD in cattle in China. Although an inactivated virus vaccine has proven effective to control FMD, its use may lead to new disease outbreaks due to a possible incomplete inactivation of the virus during the manufacturing process. Here, we expressed the P1-2A and the 3C coding regions of a serotype A FMDV field isolate in silkworm pupae (Bombyx mori) and evaluated the immunogenicity of the expression products. Four of five cattle vaccinated with these proteins developed high titers of FMDV-specific antibody and were completely protected against virulent homologous virus challenge with 10,000 50% bovine infectious doses (BID(50)). Furthermore, the 50% bovine protective dose (PD(50)) test was performed to assess the bovine potency of the empty capsid subunit vaccine and was shown to achieve 4.33 PD(50) per dose. These data provide evidence that silkworm pupae can be used to express immunogenic FMDV proteins. This strategy might be used to develop a new generation of empty capsid subunit vaccines against a variety of diseases. 相似文献
