摘要
Both rabies virus(RABV) and canine parvovirus(CPV) cause lethal diseases in dogs.In this study,both high egg passage Flury(HEP-Flury) strains of RABV and recombinant RABV carrying double RABV glycoprotein(G) gene were used to express the CPV virion protein 2(VP2)gene,and were designated rHEP-VP2 and,rHEP-dG-VP2 respectively.The two recombinant RABVs maintained optimal virus titration according to their viral growth kinetics assay compared with the parental strain HEP-Flury.Western blotting indicated that G protein and VP2 were expressed in vitro.The expression of VP2 in Crandell feline kidney cells post-infection by rHEPVP2 and rHEP-dG-VP2 was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence assay with antibody against VP2.Immunogenicity of recombinant rabies viruses was tested in Kunming mice.Both rHEP-VP2 and rHEP-dG-VP2 induced high levels of rabies antibody compared with HEP-Flury.Mice immunized with rHEP-VP2 and rHEP-dG-VP2 both had a high level of antibodies against VP2,which can protect against CPV infection.A challenge experiment indicated that more than80%mice immunized with recombinant RABVs survived after infection of challenge virus standard 24(CVS-24).Together,this study showed that recombinant RABVs expressing VP2 induced protective immune responses to RABV and CPV.Therefore,rHEP-VP2 and rHEP-dGVP2 might be potential combined vaccines for RABV and CPV.
