An Overview of Live Attenuated Recombinant Pseudorabies Viruses for Use as Novel Vaccines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a double-stranded, DNA-based swine virus with a genome approximating 150 kb in size. PRV has many nonessential genes which can be replaced with genes encoding heterologous antigens but without deleterious effects on virus propagation. Recombinant PRVs expressing both native and foreign antigens are able to stimulate immune responses. In this paper, we review the current status of live attenuated recombinant PRVs and live PRV-based vector vaccines with potential for controlling viral infections in animals.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a contagious viral disease of livestock with significant economic effect. It is prevalent in various regions of Asia, Africa, and South America. The causative agent of this disease is called foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), which is a member of Aphthovirus genus. Vaccination is an effective technique to prevent the complications of FMD and to eradicate the di...
متن کاملImmune efficacy of OmpH and OmpA DNA vaccines against avian Pasteurella multocida
Avian Pasteurella multocida is an agent of fowl cholera. The protective effect achieved through orthodoxvaccines is not ideal. The research on novel vaccines against avian Pasteurella multocida is imperative. Inthis study, the genes encoding outer membrane protein H and A (OmpH and OmpA) were cloned into theeukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+) and the recombinant plasmids, namely DNA vaccin...
متن کاملReverse Genetics Approaches for the Development of Influenza Vaccines
Influenza viruses cause annual seasonal epidemics and occasional pandemics of human respiratory disease. Influenza virus infections represent a serious public health and economic problem, which are most effectively prevented through vaccination. However, influenza viruses undergo continual antigenic variation, which requires either the annual reformulation of seasonal influenza vaccines or the ...

متن کاملConstruction of a defective adenovirus vector expressing the pseudorabies virus glycoprotein gp50 and its use as a live vaccine.
The gene encoding the pseudorabies virus glycoprotein gp50 was cloned at the very left end of the genome of adenovirus type 5 to give a recombinant adenovirus (Ad-gp50) defective for the E1A gene. Ad-gp50 expressed high levels of gp50 in cells which either complemented (293 cells) or did not complement (Vero and HeLa cells) the E1A gene. Surprisingly, over an extended period, higher levels of g...
