The search for a 'third'-generation smallpox vaccine has resulted in the development and characterization of several vaccine candidates. A significant barrier to acceptance is the absence of challenge models showing induction of correlates of protective immunity against variola virus. In this light, virus neutralization provides one of few experimental methods to show specific 'in vitro' activity of vaccines against variola virus. Here, we provide characterization of the ability of a modified vaccinia virus Ankara vaccine to induce variola virus-neutralizing antibodies, and we provide comparison with the neutralization elicited by standard Dryvax vaccination.
对“第三代”天花疫苗的探索已促成了几种候选疫苗的研发及特性研究。疫苗被接受的一个重大障碍是缺乏能显示诱导针对天花病毒保护性免疫相关指标的攻毒模型。鉴于此,病毒中和试验是为数不多的能证明疫苗针对天花病毒具有特异性“体外”活性的实验方法之一。在此,我们阐述了一种改良安卡拉痘苗病毒疫苗诱导天花病毒中和抗体的能力,并与标准Dryvax疫苗接种所引发的中和反应进行了比较。
