  • Vaccine. Alphavirus replicon particle vaccines developed for use in humans induce high levels of antibodies to influenza virus hemagglutinin in swine: Proof of concept.

    Alphavirus replicon particle vaccines developed for use in humans induce high levels of antibodies to influenza virus hemagglutinin in swine: Proof of concept.

    Erdman MM, Kamrud KI, Harris DL, Smith J. - Veterinary Diagnostic and Production Animal Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, Iowa State University, 11 Kildee, Ames, IA 50011, United States.


    A propagation-defective, single-cycle, alphavirus replicon particle (RP) system was used to produce two vaccines against human influenza virus A/Wyoming/03/2003 (H3N2). One vaccine was prepared from Venezeulan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) strain 3014 and the other from VEEV strain TC-83. Both vaccines induced high antibody titers to the influenza hemagglutinin (HA) protein and illustrated the potential of using alphavirus RP influenza vaccines in swine.
