Placebo-controlled field efficacy trials of new Japanese encephalitis (JE) vaccines may be impractical. Therefore, an animal model to evaluate efficacy of candidate JE vaccines is sought. Previous work has shown that exposure of monkeys to JE virus (JEV) via the intranasal route results in encephalitis. Here we report the further development of this model and the availability of titered virus stocks to assess the protective efficacy of JE vaccines. To determine the effective dose of our JE challenge virus, dilutions of a stock JEV (KE-93 isolate) were inoculated into four groups of three rhesus monkeys. A dose-dependent response was observed and the 50% effective dose (ED50) was determined to be 6.0 x 10(7) plaque forming units (pfu). Among animals that developed encephalitis, clinical signs occurred 9-14 days postinoculation. Infection with JEV was confirmed by detection of JEV in nervous tissues and IgM to JEV in the cerebrospinal fluid. Viremia with JEV was also detected intermittently throughout infection. Validation of the model was performed using a known effective JE vaccine and saline control. One ED90 of virus (2.0 x 10(9) pfu) was used as a challenge dose. Four of four animals that received saline control developed encephalitis while one of four monkeys administered the JE vaccine did so. This study demonstrates that the virus strain, route of inoculation, dose, and the outcome measure (encephalitis) are suitable for assessment of protective efficacy of candidate JE vaccines. 相似文献

The studies on the effect of the Recombinant Leukocyte A Interferon (r IFN-alpha A) on 4 local strains of JE virus in Thailand were performed in vitro in our laboratories in Bangkok during August - October 1984. The procedures consisted of the plaque reduction assay and the Rhesus monkey kidney cell line, LLC-MK2 cells. These 4 strains namely Vip, KE-093, KE-094 and KE-095 were isolated from the JE patients in Thailand during 1983-1984. The results revealed that all of the JE virus strains tested were sensitive to the r IFN-alpha A with its minimal effective doses ranging from 30 I.U./ml to 1,500 I.U./ml. The studies on the effects of r IFN-alpha A on JE virus replicating in the cell culture for 0 hour, 1 hour and 6 hours indicated that if the virus had more hours to replicate in the cell culture, higher concentration of the IFN was needed in order to combat the replication of the virus in the cell culture. r IFN-alpha A at higher concentrations showed more efficacy in combating the replication of the JE virus in vitro. 相似文献

The live-attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) SA14-14-2 vaccine, produced in primary hamster kidney cells, is safe and effective. Past attempts to adapt this virus to replicate in cells that are more favorable for vaccine production resulted in mutations that significantly reduced immunogenicity. In this study, 10 genetically distinct Vero cell-adapted JEV SA14-14-2 variants were isolated and a recombinant wild-type JEV clone, modified to contain the JEV SA14-14-2 polyprotein amino acid sequence, was recovered in Vero cells. A single capsid protein mutation (S66L) was important for Vero cell-adaptation. Mutations were also identified that modulated virus sensitivity to type I interferon-stimulation in Vero cells. A subset of JEV SA14-14-2 variants and the recombinant clone were evaluated in vivo and exhibited levels of attenuation that varied significantly in suckling mice, but were avirulent and highly immunogenic in weanling mice and are promising candidates for the development of a second-generation, recombinant vaccine. 相似文献

Four of the five veterinary E. coli strains, which were unable to transfer their antibiotic resistance by conjugation, were found to harbour plasmids. Evidence from transformation, agarose gel electrophoresis and curing experiments showed that in strains KE-3, KE-4 and KE-14 a nonconjugative R plasmid carried the gene for resistance to tetracycline. The plasmids in KE-9 were cryptic. 相似文献

A one-year study of Japanese encephalitis (JE) in a small focus of transmission was conducted in suburban Bangkok in 1985. Monthly data were collected on weather, vector density, sentinel pig and chick JE antibody seroconversions, and epidemiology as related to human JE cases. The primary vector species were found to be Culex gelidus and Culex tritaeniorhynchus; from which one isolate each was obtained in March and June, respectively. Pig JE antibody seroconversion peaked in April (the hottest month), with secondary peaks following in July and December. Chick seroconversions were found only in June and July. Human cases (7) in the primary focus occurred from May-July, and started 2 months following the finding of the first JEV isolate in mosquitoes and 1 month following mass JEV seroconversion in pigs. Overall, the attack rate in the focus (0.83/10(5] was greater than 4 times that of the rest of Bangkok (0.19/10(5]. Attack rates were highest in 0-9 and 10-19 year-old groups, respectively. Indications are that JEV is transmitted to humans in Bangkok at least 10 out of 12 months per year, but that cases are concentrated in the May to July period. 相似文献

We determined the full-length genome sequence of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) K94P05 isolated in Korea. Sequence analysis showed that the 10,963-nucleotide-long RNA genome of K94P05 was 13 or 14 nucleotides shorter than the genome of other JEV isolates because of a deletion in the 3' noncoding region of K94P05. Compared with sequences of other JEV isolates, the full-length nucleotide sequence showed 89.0-89.6% homology, and the deduced amino acid sequence showed between 96.4-97.3% homology. A region of approximately 60 nucleotides immediately downstream of the open reading frame stop codon of K94P05 showed high sequence variability as compared with other JEV isolates. K94P05 formed a distinct group within a phylogenetic tree established with the full-length genome sequences. Cross-neutralization studies showed that polyclonal antibodies to Korean isolates were 3 times better at neutralizing the Korean isolates than antibodies to Nakayama-NIH. These findings suggest that Korean JEV K94P05 is genetically and antigenically distinct from other Asian JEV isolates. 相似文献

A study was conducted to determine the presence of hemagglutination inhibition (HI) and neutralization antibodies against Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in wild pigs on an offshore island in Singapore. Blood samples were collected from 28 wild pigs on the island. All the sera tested with HI assay and plaque reduction neutralization tests were found to be positive for antibodies against JEV. Our results indicate that the wild pigs have been infected with JEV on the offshore island and there is JEV transmission. 相似文献

We analyzed the effects of the new antirheumatic drug KE-298 on monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 and regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) production in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis and in interleukin (IL)-1beta-stimulated rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synoviocytes. In rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis, the enhanced production of MCP-1 and RANTES and the development of arthritis were suppressed by oral treatment with 100 mg/kg per day of KE-298 for 18 days. Furthermore, KE-298 (10-100 microg/ml) suppressed MCP-1 and RANTES production by IL-1beta-stimulated RA synoviocytes through inhibition of NF-kappaB and AP-1 activation. These results suggest that the inhibitory effect of KE-298 on MCP-1 and RANTES production might partly explain its efficacy in rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis and in patients with RA. 相似文献

It is hypothesized that previous heterologous flaviviral exposure may modulate clinical illness among persons infected with West Nile virus (WNV). Little is known about the serological response in such persons. In summer 2003, a WNV outbreak occurred in Colorado, the location of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases (DVBID). DVBID employees, most previously vaccinated with yellow fever virus (YFV) or Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) vaccines, were studied to determine whether previous vaccination affected symptom development among those subsequently infected with WNV during the outbreak, as well as their serological response. Serum samples collected in December 2003 and previously banked samples were tested using the plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT) against WNV, Saint Louis encephalitis virus, dengue- 4 virus, JEV, and YFV. Specimens shown to have WNV antibody by PRNT were tested by IgM and IgG enzymelinked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). Ten (9%) of 113 serosurvey participants had WNV neutralizing antibody titers in December 2003. PRNT titers from previous specimens showed that one of the ten had seroconverted to WNV before 2003. Of the remaining nine participants, seven reported illness in the summer of 2003, two of which were unvaccinated and five previously vaccinated. In the December 2003 specimens, five persons previously unvaccinated or vaccinated only against YFV had a fourfold or greater neutralizing titer with WNV than with other flaviviruses, whereas no persons previously vaccinated against JEV or JEV and YFV showed a similar difference in neutralizing titers. Eight of nine persons infected in 2003 had negative or indeterminate WNV MAC-ELISA results in the December 2003 sample; the ninth person was vaccinated against YFV one month previously, and was also YFV positive by MAC-ELISA. We conclude that previous flaviviral vaccination does not markedly affect the development of WNV fever and that the IgM antibody response in patients without neuroinvasive WNV disease is transient. 相似文献

Protection against Japanese encephalitis virus in mice and hamsters by treatment with carboxymethylacridanone, a potent interferon inducer 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A low-molecular-weight chemical inducer of interferon, 10-carboxymethyl-9-acridanone (CMA), effectively prevented death caused by Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) injected peripherally into weanling mice and baby hamsters. Marked reductions in mortality were seen in mice when a single dose of CMA was administered intraperitoneally, subcutaneously, or intramuscularly to animals challenged intraperitoneally with JEV. The degree of protection was dependent on dose and time of administration of CMA in relation to virus challenge: all hamsters given CMA on the same day as JEV survived, with lesser although still significant protection when CMA was given one or two days after JEV. Viremia, an important characteristic of the pathogenesis of natural JEV infection, was reduced nearly 10,000-fold in hamsters treated with CMA. Thus, in the experimental animal models developed for these studies, CMA provided marked therapeutic and prophylactic effect against JEV. 相似文献

SARS-CoV-2, like other RNA viruses, has a propensity for genetic evolution owing to the low fidelity of its viral polymerase. Several recent reports have described a series of novel SARS-CoV-2 variants. Some of these have been identified as variants of concern (VOCs), including alpha (B.1.1.7, Clade GRY), beta (B.1.351, Clade GH), gamma (P.1, Clade GR), and delta (B.1.617.2, Clade G). VOCs are likely to have some effect on transmissibility, antibody evasion, and changes in therapeutic or vaccine effectiveness. However, the physiological and virological understanding of these variants remains poor. We demonstrated that these four VOCs exhibited differences in plaque size, thermal stability at physiological temperature, and replication rates. The mean plaque size of beta was the largest, followed by those of gamma, delta, and alpha. Thermal stability, evaluated by measuring infectivity and half-life after prolonged incubation at physiological temperature, was correlated with plaque size in all variants except alpha. However, despite its relatively high thermal stability, alpha’s small plaque size resulted in lower replication rates and fewer progeny viruses. Our findings may inform further virological studies of SARS-CoV-2 variant characteristics, VOCs, and variants of interest. These studies are important for the effective management of the COVID-19 pandemic. 相似文献
