RESUMO

AIM: Control for the population herd immunity against seasonal influenza viruses as well as for emergence of antibodies against influenza with pandemic potential in human blood sera. MATERIALS AND METHODS: HAI reaction against vaccine and epidemic influenza viruses as well as HPAI viruses A/rook/Chany/32/2015 (H5N1) (clade 2.3.2. lc.) andA/Anhui/01/2013 (H7N9). RESULTS: Among all the sera samples collected in the autumn of 2014 and 2015, none had reacted in HAI against A(H5N 1) and A(H7N9) antigens even at 1:10 dilution. Among samples collected in autumn 2014, 41% were positive to A/California/07/09(H1Nlpdm9) virus, 36% - A/Texas/50/2012 (H3N2), 40% - B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Vict.lin.) and 47% reacted in HAI against the B/Massachusetts/2/2012 (Yam.lin.) strain. 22% of all the samples had a titer of at least 40 against all the antigens and only 10% in HAI had a titer of 40 or more against all the vaccine strains. Among the samples collected in autumn 2015, the number of seropositive against A/California/07/09(HlNlpdmO9) varied from 31% in the Urals FD to 46% in the Southern FD. The amount of seropositive against A/Switzerland/9715293/13 (H3N2) strain was at the level of 4 - 13% in all the FDs except Urals, where this parameter was slightly above 30%. The amount of seropositive against vaccine influenza B viruses varied from 23 to 76%. Only 2% of sera had titers in HAI of 40 or above against all the vaccine strains, 29% of all the samples were seronegative. CONCLUSION: Population immunity in Russia against influenza A(H3N2) is at a very low level, thus socially significant consequences of influenza epidemics in many aspects will depend on the vaccination campaign of autumn 2016.

RESUMO

In the spring of 2015, avian influenza virus surveillance in Western Siberia resulted in isolation of several influenza H5N1 virus strains. The strains were isolated from several wild bird species. Investigation of biological features of those strains demonstrated their high pathogenicity for mammals. Phylogenetic analysis of the HA gene showed that the strains belong to clade 2.3.2.1c.

RESUMO

AIM: Determine the level of antibodies against socially significant types/serotypes of influenza virus in sera of individuals residing in various regions of Russia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 1525 samples of blood sera collected in August-December 2013 in 8 regions of Russian Federation were studied in hemagglutination inhibition reaction (HAI) with antigens obtained from A/California/07/09, (H1N1)pdm09, A/Victoria/361/2011(H3N2), B/Brisbane/60/2008 (Victoria line), B/Massachusetts/2/2012 (Yamagata line), A/Commongull/Chany/2006 (H5N1), A/Anhui/01/2013 (H7N9) influenza virus strains. RESULTS: None of the blood sera samples had significant HAI titers against A/H5 and A/H7 antigens. Of all the 1525 samples, 788 (52%) were positive with A(H1N1)pdm09 antigen; 734 (48%) reacted with A(H3N2) antigen; 1010 (66%) samples were positive with B/Victoria antigen and 602 (39%) samples were positive with B/Yamagata antigen. CONCLUSION: Healthcare institutions should pay attention to the correction of population immunity profile in regions for the reduction of social-economic losses from seasonal influenza epidemics.

RESUMO

A recombinant pSC13D6 plasmid DNA was constructed based on cDNA fragments of genes encoding variable domains of heavy and light chains of the MKA 13D6 monoclonal antibody against glycoprotein of the tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus. This plasmid provided expression in Escherichia coli cells of the sc13D6 single-chain antibody against the TBE virus. The produced antibodies could bind to the TBE virus, strain 205, and the TBE virus recombinant E protein. The affinity constant of purified sc13D6 was (3.0 +/- 0.2) x 10(7) M(-1) for the equilibrium state and (2.8 +/- 0.3) x 10(7) M(-1) in the case of antigen-antibody formation on the surface. The obtained single-chain antibody could inhibit the infection potency of the TBE virus on a monolayer of eukaryotic cells. The calculated IC50 value for sc13D6 was 16.7 microg/ml.

RESUMO

One of the problem in the selection of the most effective antiviral preparations with a broad spectrum of antiviral protective activity, is the "continuity" of assays of different level of complexity so, that the most effective antiviral therapeutic, selected by in vitro assays would be the most effective in vivo. Comparative study of the efficacy of the influenza virus inhibitor in the assays of inhibition of virus binding with fetuin, inhibition of infectious focus forming units in MDCK cells, inhibition of virus yield in infected MDCK cells, and inhibition of influenza virus infectivity in mice infected by viral aerosol are presented. The value of 50% inhibiting concentration IC50 for the pare "influenza virus strain A/NIB/23/89-MA-inhibitor tetra-Aca6-6'SLN" corresponded to 6-10 microM and was invariant for three different tests--in vitro assay of inhibition of virus binding with fetuin, inhibition of yield in infected MDCK cell culture, and inhibition of virus infectivity in mice, but not for the assay of inhibition of infectious focus forming units in cell culture.

RESUMO

This research investigates a promising antiviral compound based on polyprenols from Siberian silver fir (Abies sibirica). The physico-chemical characteristics of a preparation developed in aerosol form and an estimation of its protective efficacy against aerosol challenge of laboratory animals are presented. It is shown that (1) by using a simple ultrasonic disperser one can obtain aerosol of three formulations studied with about 70% of its mass accumulated in the size range below 1.8 microm; (2) 40-100% of aerosol particles contain preparation for different formulations; (3) after delivering under specified schedules, the preparations as developed can protect up to 100% of mice against 5 LD(50) of influenza A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2) virus aerosol infection. Animals inhaled twice the preparation doses (which were 100 times lower than injection ones of the same efficacy) and did not exceed 10 microg/mouse. It was shown that the mode of action of this immunomodulating preparation was nonspecific stimulation of immune cells' various activities.

RESUMO

This study demonstrates the possibility of achieving a prophylactic effect by intramuscular injection of Abies sibirica polyprenols for the control of influenza virus infection in mice. One of the five polyprenol preparations tested, preparation N1, which had the lowest hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (8.6), produced a significant protective effect when injected in a dose of 2000 microg/mouse 2 days before aerosol infection of mice with influenza virus. A moderate protective effect was also observed using a second preparation, designated N2. One day after aerosol infection, animals pre-treated with 2000 microg doses of the polyprenol preparations or Hanks' solution showed no difference in the level of interferon accumulation in the lungs. Three days after injection of preparation N2 and N1, a significant decrease in spleen and thymus weights was, observed in the mice. One day after injection of these preparations, the number of lymphocytes in the bronchoalveolar tract of the mice exceeded almost twice that seen in mice treated with placebo. After 3 days, relative and absolute numbers of macrophages decreased, whereas those of lymphocytes increased significantly. Three days after the administration of preparations N1 and N2, macrophages became approximately twice as active in absorbing zymozan granules. Preparation N1 affected the system of superoxide radical anion production to a greater extent than preparation N2. The production of radical anions by the macrophages of the bronchoalveolar tract in the mice, 1 day after intramuscular injection of preparation N1, was significantly higher than that seen on day 3 and that induced by preparation N2 1 and 3 days after injection. These data indicate that emulsions of polyprenols that have relatively low hydrophilic-lipophilic balance, inhibit influenza virus infection in mice through a modulation of the host immune response.

RESUMO

A method was elaborated to construct combined artificial immunogens mimicking virus particles. The gist was exposing protein antigenic determinants of one virus on the particle surface and delivering plasmids with genes for antigenic proteins of another virus to specialized immune cells. Such immunogens were constructed and shown to induce biosynthesis of specific antibodies against HIV-1 and the tick-borne encephalitis virus. The level and duration of the humoral and cell responses were assayed.

RESUMO

The nonstructural 36K protein of vaccinia virus (VV) mapped in HindIII-P and HindIII-J fragments of VV strain L-IVP has been expressed in E. coli as a fusion protein. The products of 36K gene preserved the antigen homology with the native protein 36K and the capacity to bind specific immunoglobulins of rabbit antiVV serum. The protective properties of 36K gene products and their joint effect with the immunodominant protein 35K were investigated. The non-structural 36K gene products showed no protective activity, but increased the production of specific antibodies in mice immunized with a mixture of both protein preparations, this increase being compatible with that observed after immunization with the inactivated virus preparations.

RESUMO

Based on the dose-response dependence represented as a generating distribution function of infecting doses of a pathogen, a value for the epidemiological efficiency rate of preventive agents was derived. For an arbitrary distribution of infecting doses, EEC mean values is shown to always no greater than 1: ED50v/ED50w where ED50v and ED50w are 50% of the infective doses of the pathogen assessed for those treated with the agent and intact persons, respectively. This relation is also valid when differences in pathogenic resistance are determined not only due to the use of drugs, but for any other variables (age-, sex-specific and other factors). This was verified by experiments.

RESUMO

There are known 3 likely mechanisms of virus conveyance into the central nervous system (CNS). These include hematogenic penetration, spread along the peripheral nerves, and the olfactory pathway which begins from the infected olfactory neuroepithelial cells. The possibility of viral spread into CNS via the olfactory pathway was shown for the representatives of togaviruses, herpesviruses, coronaviruses, rhabdoviruses, and for some others. This study suggests that the olfactory pathway of viral conveyance into CNS may be blocked by specific mucosal antibodies in the nasal mucosa. The recombinant TK- variant of WR vaccinia strain with inserted genes coding structural and nonstructural proteins of TBE virus is accumulated in the branches of the respiratory tract only while the parenteral vaccinia strain is detected in the brain regions, spleen, respiratory tract, and in blood. The protective activity of recombinant strain and inactivated TBE vaccine after mice immunization by escarification or intranasally, or subcutaneously was comparatively studied. The findings indicate that intranasal immunization by recombinant strain is the most protective against intraperitoneal challenge by TBE virus. The mucosal and humoral immune response that was induced by intranasal immunization seems to provide the highest levels of protection, which was experimentally observed.

RESUMO

White mice weighing 14-16 g were intranasally infected with LD50 of influenza virus (A/Aichi/2/68 strain). High levels both of virus and interferon were detected in the lung. Sufficient virus accumulation in the nasal cavity occurred with low interferon induction. At the same time high blood interferon levels corresponded to sporadic low viremia. Intraperitoneal injection of the interferon inducer ridostin (a pharmacological formulation of dsRNA) to BALB/c mice (18-20 g) in a dose of 5 mg/kg induced intensive blood accumulation of interferon with its peak at 8 hours postadministration (2560 U/0.2 ml), but interferon was not detected in the respiratory tract and brain of these mice. Intranasal (15 mg/kg) and aerogenic (0.4-0.6 mg/kg) administration of ridostin induced interferon mainly in the upper respiratory tract and lung. The regularities found are in agreement with the data on interferon induction by other dsRNA preparations, which makes it necessary to design dosage forms of interferon inducers for respiratory application in influenza.

RESUMO

The experimental data on aerosol challenge of rabbits with Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus are presented. Lethal infection of rabbits was followed by a rise in body temperature (greater than 0.5 degrees C) within 1-2 days after challenge. Two waves of lethality in aerosol infection experiments were recorded. Three variants of the infection outcome were observed after VEE virus aerosol challenge of rabbits. The causes of death of the infected rabbits are discussed.

RESUMO

Effects of allantoic fluid fractions (isolated by sedimentation and gel chromatography) on inactivation of influenza virus and lipid peroxidation in viral envelopes and phospholipid liposomes indicate the presence of both components with prooxidant effects enhancing inactivation and of endogenous antioxidants stabilizing the viral activity. The hypothesized "lipid" mechanism of inactivation (suggesting activation of lipid peroxidation in viral envelopes followed by inactivation of viral nucleoprotein) permits a satisfactory interpretation of viral material inactivation.

RESUMO

The time course of virus accumulation was studied in guinea pigs aerogenously infected with Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus, strain Trinidad. At first the agent was isolated from the lungs. The course of infection was characterized by viremia and infection of some organs and tissues of the lymphoid, hemopoietic, and central nervous systems, specifically, of the tonsils, lymph nodes, spleen, liver, bone marrow, some sections of the olfactory tract, and brain.

RESUMO

Time course of accumulation of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus (strain Trinidad) in the organism of white rats after respiratory infection was studied. Electronmicroscopic examination of the organs was carried out over the course of the disease. The virus was for the first time detected in the lungs of animals after aerogenous infection and in the olfactory area of the nasal cavity of animals infected by applying the virus into the nasal mucosa. Disease development in aerosol-infected rats was characterized by viremia and infection of the hemopoietic and lymphomyeloid systems, particularly of the thymus and bifurcation lymph nodes, as well as of the olfactory system and brain. At the late stage of infection the concentration of the agent in all the examined organs was below the detection threshold, and neutralizing antibodies were detected in the blood serum.

RESUMO

Immunogenicity of recombinant vaccinia virus strain (VR26) expressing Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus structural protein genes was studied by oral immunization. Sera of animals immunized with VR26 contained antibodies specific to VEE virus, among which antibodies with virus-neutralizing activity were present. Evaluation of the protective efficiency of oral immunization with VR26 demonstrated a high level of animal protection from lethal doses of VEE virus. Rabbits immunized orally were highly resistant (protection index 142.9) to intranasal infection, which is of priority importance for antiVEE vaccine. Comparative analysis of the results of scarification and oral immunization with VR26 indicates that the type of immune response depends on the method of immunization. These results demonstrate good prospects of oral vaccination with recombinant VR26 strain for immunoprophylaxis of VEE.

RESUMO

Combined application of ridostine with catonic liposomes was shown to essentially enhance the interferon-inducing and antiviral activity of the former in experiments with cell cultures L-929, which is apparently related with an improved efficiency of intracellular delivery of dsRNA. A comparative study demonstrated that ridostine, when combined with liposomes, is needed by 10(3)-10(4) times less as when it is used alone. A pretreatment of the cellular monolayer by cationic liposomes contributes also to enhancing the activity of ridostine, which can be explained by an enhanced permeability of cells for dsRNA holding on-for as long as 30 minutes after the removal of liposomes from the liquid culture. A separate successive administration of, first, liposomes and, then, of ridostine in BALB/c mice (20 mg/kg) leads to a more intensified induction of interferon in the upper respiratory tract tissues as compared with the administration of ridostine alone.

RESUMO

A recombinant strain of vaccinia virus (VR26) containing a DNA-copy of the subgenomic 26S RNA of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus (VEE) inserted into the coding region of thymidine kinase (TK) gene was produced. This subgenomic RNA contained the genes for all structural proteins of the VEE virus, the strain Trinidad donkey (TRD). VR26 effectively expressed VEE virus glycoproteins on the membranes of the infected cells. Blood sera of VR26-immunized animals were found to contain VEE virus-specific antibodies. VR26-immunized mice and rabbits showed a high level of resistance to subcutaneous inoculation with the pathogenic TRD strain of VEE virus. VR26 also provided a high level of protection in animals against aerogenic infection. The absence of virus-neutralizing antibodies in most VR26-immunized animals resistant to inoculation with high doses of VEE suggests the dominant role of the cell component in the immune response. The immune response induced by the recombinant VR26 strain was stable as demonstrated by the resistance of the animals to a challenge with VEE virus 7 months after immunization. The experimental results suggest that this recombinant strain may be considered as a candidate for vaccine preparation.

RESUMO

The aerosol and oral routes of infection of Gypsy moth larvae with nuclear polyhedrosis virus are compared. The virus in aerosol retains its biological activity. The virus output/expenditure ratio is virtually the same in the studied routes of infection. Aerosol method of inoculation saves 30% components of media and is 6-8 times less labor consuming. This method permits complete automation of infection of larvae, thus essentially improving the efficacy of baculovirus production.
