Severe human disease caused by the emerging H7N9 influenza virus in China warrants a rapid response. Here, we present a recombinant Newcastle disease virus expressing a North American lineage H7 influenza virus hemagglutinin. Sera from immunized mice were cross-reactive to a broad range of H7 subtype viruses and inhibited hemagglutination by the novel H7 hemagglutinin. Immunized mice were protected against a heterologous H7 subtype challenge, and genetic analysis suggested that cross-protective antibodies recognize conserved antigenic sites.
中国出现的新型 H7N9 流感病毒引发了严重的人类疾病,需要迅速做出反应。在此,我们介绍了一种表达北美的 H7 流感病毒血凝素的重组新城疫病毒。免疫小鼠的血清与多种 H7 亚型病毒发生交叉反应,并抑制新型 H7 血凝素的血凝作用。免疫小鼠可抵抗异源 H7 亚型的攻击,遗传分析表明,交叉保护抗体识别保守的抗原表位。
