| activity of human serum lipoproteins on the infectivity of rhabdoviruses. | the inhibiting activity of various human serum lipoprotein classes and their lipid components on the infectivity of rhabdoviruses has been studied. the research has been carried out according to different experimental procedures on both the vesicular stomatitis virus (indiana strain), and the fixed rabies virus (cvs strain). the results obtained have shown an inhibition of the infectivity of vsv and cvs, mainly linked to the very low and low density lipoprotein classes. it has also been demonstr ... | 1983 | 6306404 |
| ph-dependent hemolysis and cell fusion of rhabdoviruses. | human erythrocytes pretreated with fungal semialkali protease or trypsin became susceptible to hemagglutination by vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv) and rabies virus. both viruses exhibited extensive hemolytic and fusion activities against erythrocytes pretreated with these enzymes. the hemolysis and fusion were ph dependent and the activities were most apparent at ph 5.0 and decreased with increase in ph. however, vsv still exhibited slight hemolytic activity at neutral ph. hemolysis was also de ... | 1982 | 6300613 |
| inhibition of rous sarcoma virus-induced transformation by preinfection with rhabdoviruses. | in vivo preinfection of chicks with rabies virus (rv) or vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv) ts 1026 inhibits tumour formation after superinfection with rous sarcoma virus (rsv). the degree of inhibition depends on the titre of the infecting viruses and the interval between rhabdovirus and rsv infection. in vitro, cells preinfected with vsv ts 1026 under non-permissive conditions and superinfected with rsv, are not transformed as judged by cell morphology, serum requirement for growth or the capaci ... | 1983 | 6300284 |
| nucleotide sequence of a cdna clone encoding the entire glycoprotein from the new jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus. | the nucleotide sequence of the mrna encoding the glycoprotein from the new jersey serotype of vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv) was determined from a cdna clone containing the entire coding region. the sequence of 12 5'-terminal noncoding nucleotides present in the mrna but not in the cdna clone was determined from a primer extended to the 5' terminus of the mrna. the mrna is 1,573 nucleotides long (excluding polyadenylic acid) and encodes a protein of 517 amino acids. only six nucleotides occur ... | 1983 | 6298453 |
| rabies virus glycoprotein analogs: biosynthesis in escherichia coli. | the surface of rabies virus is composed of an approximately 60,000 dalton glycoprotein, in which most of the antigenic and immunogenic determinants of the virus reside. we have constructed plasmids for the direct expression in escherichia coli of the mature full length rabies glycoprotein gene and also for the expression of a glycoprotein gene which has been truncated to exclude the coding region for a hydrophobic, possibly transmembrane, domain of the protein. escherichia coli harboring the pla ... | 1983 | 6297004 |

| cellular response to rabies virus infection. | the effects of rabies virus on host cells were studied and compared to those obtained with another rhabdovirus, vesicular stomatitis virus [j. virol. 34, 777-781 (1980)]. we show here: (1) that rabies infection has no effect on cell morphology, while infection with vesicular stomatitis virus caused cell retraction. thus, only vesicular stomatitis virus induced a depolymerization of the microfilaments; and (2) that microtubules and microfilaments do not play a major role in rabies virus productio ... | 1982 | 6290135 |
| homology between the glycoproteins of vesicular stomatitis virus and rabies virus. | we compared the predicted amino acid sequences of the vesicular stomatitis virus and rabies virus glycoproteins by using a computer program which provides an optimal alignment and a statistical significance for the match. highly significant homology between these two proteins was detected, including identical positioning of one glycosylation site. a significant homology between the predicted amino acid sequences of vesicular stomatitis virus and influenza virus matrix proteins was also found. | 1982 | 6287013 |
| pseudorabies virus infection in raccoons: a review. | pseudorabies is a rarely reported disease of raccoons. laboratory and field evidence of prv infection suggests the raccoon is a "dead end" host with little opportunity for raccoon-to-raccoon spread of virus. all reported field cases have been associated closely with infected swine and swine have been considered the source of the raccoon infection. the clinical signs of prv in raccoons closely resembles those of canine distemper and rabies virus infections. infection with the latter viruses are c ... | 1982 | 6285008 |
| analysis of viral and defective-interfering nucleocapsids in acute and persistent infection by rhabdoviruses. | we have isolated and characterized the rna of intracellular virus nucleocapsids recovered from a number of cell cultures persistently infected with rabies virus or vesicular stomatitis virus (vsv). vsv persistent infections in bhk21, l cells and aedes albopictus (mosquito) cells generally showed the presence of large amounts of defective-interfering (di) nucleocapsid rna and much smaller amounts of standard (b) nucleocapsid rna. persistent infections of bhk21 cells by two rabies virus strains, c ... | 1982 | 6284869 |

| comparative studies of rabies and sindbis virus replication in human neuroblastoma (sym-i) cells that can produce interferon. | k-104 cells, a cloned cell line derived from a human neuroblastoma (sym-i), were induced by rabies hep-flury virus to release large amounts of interferon, and the resulting antiviral activity significantly suppressed the rabies virus replication. the role of endogenous interferon was confirmed by treatment with anti-interferon antibody which increased the yield of progeny virus. the virus yield in the second undiluted passage through k-104 cells was much less than that in the first passage, beca ... | 1984 | 6208314 |
| basis of neurotropism of rabies virus: a new hypothesis. | there is evidence that rabies viruses travel along the peripheral nerves, in the axoplasm to reach the central nervous system (cns). it is hypothesised that rabies viruses are attracted electrically or magnetically by the nerve impulses to the cns. this explains why rabies viruses show specific affinity towards nerve tissue. the present hypothesis offers a new approach to the study of pathogenesis of the various neurotropic viruses. | 1984 | 6206381 |
| immunoelectron microscopic localization of rabies virus antigen in central nervous system and peripheral tissue using low-temperature embedding and protein a-gold. | a protein a-gold technique was used in conjunction with low temperature embedding to visualize ultrastructurally mature virions and sites of viral replication in the brains of rabies virus-infected mice after peripheral inoculation of virus. the association of viral profiles and gold particles with synaptic membranes, microtubules and rough endoplasmic reticulum suggested a mechanism of rabies virus transport within the central nervous system. early interactions of inflammatory cells with the vi ... | 1983 | 6203925 |

| [prevention of inter-human rabies transmission after corneal graft]. | transplantation, to a normal recipient, of a cornea taken from a donor who died of rabies encephalitis constitutes an extremely serious exposure. four cases, up to now are known of human to human transmission of rabies virus. in these four cases, the diagnosis of rabies in the donor has been made afterwards when to the recipient developed fatal rabies. we report here the first case of this type of exposure where the diagnosis of rabies in the donor could be made on the day following the transpla ... | 1981 | 6175385 |
| immunofluorescent staining of rabies virus antigen in formalin-fixed tissue after treatment with trypsin. | formalin-fixed central nervous system tissue from clinically rabid animals was treated with 0.25% trypsin and tested for the presence of rabies virus antigen by direct immunofluorescent (if) staining. the results were comparable with those obtained from direct if staining of acetone-fixed standard smears or fresh frozen-cut sections. experiments were conducted using coded brain specimens (classified as if-negative, weakly positive, or strongly positive) and showed a specificity of 100% for secti ... | 1981 | 6172212 |
| essential role of t cells in the postexposure prophylaxis of rabies in mice. | athymic nude mice injected intramuscularly with a street stain of rabies virus were not protected against rabies by postexposure administration of beta-propiolactone-inactivated rabies vaccine. in contrast, their normal littermates were completely protected from death by the same vaccination regimens. nude mice did not produce igg antibody as a result of the vaccine during the test period of 15 days, whereas normal littermates produced igg antibody from day 5 after vaccination. however, passive ... | 1981 | 6171709 |
| a mouse model of the pathogenesis and postexposure prophylaxis of rabies. | a mouse model for the study of postexposure prophylaxis of rabies was established. mice injected intramuscularly with a street strain of rabies virus were significantly protected from death by five daily 0.2-ml doses of inactivated rabies vaccine of chick embryo cell culture origin initiated immediately or 3 hr after infection. in these mice, a large amount of circulating interferon was induced as early as 1 hr after the first dose of vaccine and lasted until at least 12 hr but no such amount of ... | 1980 | 6163950 |
| mouse model for abortive rabies infection of the central nervous system. | when adult mice were injected by the footpad route with the attenuated rabies virus era/bhk, serum- and brain-associated antibody and interferon were produced, nonspecific cytotoxic cells and virus-specific cytolytic t cells in the spleen were activated, and a nonlethal infection of the central nervous system occurred. cyclophosphamide treatment of these animals 1 day after virus infection suppressed antibody formation and induction of cytolytic t cells and resulted in a lethal infection. virus ... | 1981 | 6163717 |
| in vitro effect of isoprinosine on rabies virus. | the in vitro effect of isoprinosine, an antiviral compound, was evaluated on era and va319 rabies viral strains. isoprinosine diminished the number of immunofluorescent cells, viral titers, and structures involved in rabies virus replication. mechanism of antiviral action was probably mediated by modification of the polyribosome conformation and function. | 1980 | 6160794 |
| persistence and variation of mangosta street rabies virus antigens during adaptation into mice. | a mangosta street rabies virus strain antigen not shared by the challenge virus standard (cvs) was identified by counterimmunoelectrophoresis. this strain antigen persisted following nine mouse passages of the virus, during which the cvs strain antigen was not acquired. these observations suggest that the antigen composition of the two virus strains is different. antigenic differences during the course of adaptation of mangosta virus were also revealed by crossed serum neutralization tests. the ... | 1980 | 6159749 |

| rabies vaccine prepared in human cell cultures: progress and perspectives. | rabies vaccine prepared in human diploid cell strains is a replacement for the previously available vaccines that are prepared in animal tissues and are less immunogenic and more reactogenic. the human cel-grown vaccine made in the united states is a split-product vaccine, whereas the vaccines made in europe are whole-virion vaccines. both types of vaccine contain concentrated and inactivated "fixed" rabies virus. when used before exposure to rabies virus, the vaccine should be given intramuscul ... | 1980 | 6158081 |
| antigenic variants of rabies virus. | antigenic variants of cvs-11 strain of rabies virus were selected after treatment of virus populations with monoclonal antibodies directed against the glycoprotein antigen of the virus. these variants resisted neutralization by the hybridoma antibody used for their selection. two independently mutating antigenic sites could be distinguished when five variants were tested with nine hybridoma antibodies. the frequency of single epitope variants in a cloned rabies virus seed was approximately 1:10, ... | 1980 | 6156982 |
| use of hybridoma monoclonal antibodies in the detection of antigenic differences between rabies and rabies-related virus proteins. i. the nucleocapsid protein. | twenty-one hybridoma cultures, obtained through the fusion of mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes of balb/c mice immunized with either rabies virus or mokola virus, secreted monoclonal antibodies specific for the nucleocapsid of the inducer virus. they displayed different specificities for the nucleocapsids of rabies and rabies-related viruses and could be classified into eight groups which are likely to correspond to different antigenic determinants on the nucleocapsid. four strains of fixed r ... | 1980 | 6155436 |
| use of hybridoma monoclonal antibodies in the detection of antigenic differences between rabies and rabies-related virus proteins. ii. the glycoprotein. | twenty-five hybridoma cultures secreted monoclonal antibodies directed against the glycoprotein of rabies or rabies-related viruses. the antibodies had different specificities for the glycoproteins of eight rabies and rabies-related viruses. they could be classified into fourteen groups which probably correspond to different antigenic determinants on the glycoproteins. these hybridomas when used in either radioimmunoassay (ria) or in neutralization tests allow differentiation of laboratory strai ... | 1980 | 6155432 |
| enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for quantification of rabies antibodies in human sera. | a double antibody enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was elaborated for detection of rabies antibodies in human sera. the procedure consisted of coating polyvinylchloride plates with rabbit antirabies serum followed by attachment of partially purified fixed virus and human rabies antibodies. the rabies-specific antibodies in human antisera were quantified by means of antihuman peroxidase conjugate. titration of antisera from human volunteers immunized with the "fermi" vaccine revealed exc ... | 1984 | 6151357 |
| ammonium chloride and chloroquine inhibit rabies virus infection in neuroblastoma cells. brief report. | two lysosomotropic agents, ammonium chloride and chloroquine inhibit the infection of murine neuroblastoma cells by rabies virus. the experiments indicate that rabies virus infects the neuronal cells through an endosome ph dependent entry pathway. | 1984 | 6148053 |
| use of post-exposure intradermal rabies vaccination in a rural mission hospital. | the efficacy of single site, intradermal human diploid cell rabies vaccine (hdcv) was assessed in patients exposed to rabies, who were treated at a rural mission hospital in central thailand. intradermal hdcv, 0.1 ml on days 0, 3, 7 and 14, resulted in protective antibody levels by day 14, with measurable titres present at one year. 98% of 219 patients completed primary vaccination and 84% returned for a one-year booster. no case of rabies has been seen in those vaccinated. intradermal hdcv in s ... | 1984 | 6146863 |
