An Attempt of a New Strategy in PRV Prevention: Co-Injection with Inactivatedand Inactivated Pseudorabies Virus Intravenously.

Abstract

Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is one of the causative agents of common infectious diseases in swine herds.is a probiotic belonging to the group of lactic acid bacteria and has excellent immunomodulatory effects. Vaccine immunization is an important approach to prevent animal diseases in the modern farming industry, and good immunization outcomes can substantially reduce the damage caused by pathogens to animals, improve the quality of animals' lives, and reduce economic losses. In the present study, we showed that inactivatedand inactivated PRV when co-injected intravenously significantly reduced the mortality of mice after inoculation with PRV. The inactivated+ inactivated PRV intravenous injection group induced more production of Th cells and Tc cells. Additionally, the inactivated+ inactivated PRV intravenous injection group showed higher concentrations of cytokines (IFN-γ and IL-10) and induced higher antibody production. Thus, the co-injection of inactivatedand inactivated PRV could remarkably prevent and control the lethality of PRV infection in mice, which is a critical finding for vaccination and clinical development.
