Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is a highly contagious disease that results in enormous economic losses in the global poultry sector. Lactic acid bacteria are an appealing vehicle for the safe and effective delivery of heterologous protein antigens. Oral administration of the commensal bacterium Lactococcus lactis expressing recombinant fusion proteins has been used to elicit mucosal and systemic...
The vaccine efficacy of recombinant viruses can be influenced by many factors. Accordingly, the activity of promoters has been one of the major factors affecting the antigen expression and protection rate. In the present study, two recombinant Marek’s disease virus type 1 (MDV1) vaccines containing the VP2 gene of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) under control of different promoters were generated...
Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) causes immunosuppression in young chickens, leading to increased susceptibility to other diseases and a reduction in the immune response to other vaccines. Thus, IBDV results in great economic losses to the poultry industry. The most effective method of prevention is vaccination. However, medium-virulence vaccines can cause bursal pathological damage and immunosuppression...
To assess whether recipients and non-recipients of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine subsequently differ in terms of sexual risk taking behaviour.Cross-sectional survey. Sequential analyses constructed from self-reported age at vaccination, age at first intercourse and age at response.A random selection of women aged 18–46 years living in Denmark, Norway and Sweden in 2011–2012, eligible for...
Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) causes an oncogenic, immunosuppressive and runting syndrome in multiple avian hosts worldwide. In this study, an optimal vaccination strategy was developed to enhance the immune responses against REV infection. Chickens were vaccinated twice intramuscularly with plasmid pCAGgp90 encoding gp90 protein of REV, or with recombinant gp90 protein, or vaccinated with plasmid...
Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is an important cytokine with multiple functions in innate and acquired immunity. In this study, chicken IL-18 was evaluated for its adjuvant effects on the protective immunity of a DNA vaccine carrying the VP243 gene of IBDV. Groups of 14-day-old SPF chickens were given twice at 2-week intervals with 100μg of the plasmid DNA vaccine pCAGVP243, pCAGVP243-IL-18 and the blank...
Reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV) causes an oncogenic, immunosuppressive and runting syndrome in multiple avian hosts worldwide. In this study, the gp90 protein of REV was secretory expressed in Pichia pastoris with high production level and good antigenicity. To fully utilize the expression potential of the P. pastoris expression system, a panel of Pichia clones carrying increasing copies of the...
A new form of influenza A vaccine that can provide broadly cross-protective immunity is central in developing strategies to prepare for the next global flu pandemic. The ectodomain of the M2 protein (M2e) is an attractive target for developing such a kind of vaccine and several approaches have been proposed to overcome its poor immunogenicity nature. Here, we show change to the poor immunogenic characteristic...
Due to the problems associated with traditional methods for infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) vaccine development and the pressure of evolution and variation of very virulent strains, it is urgent to develop IBDV vaccine rapidly with novel approaches. Using reverse genetics, the aim of this study was to generate a tailored vaccine strain (rGtHLJVP2) with its VP2 gene similar to very virulent...
