entry of rabies virus into the peripheral nerves of mice.young adult mice were inoculated in the hind limb with rabies virus or sindbis virus. rabies 1820b virus antigen was detected in leg sections by immuno-fluorescence at 1 h post-inoculation at sites comparable in form and distribution to cholinesterase-positive sites, which represent motor end-plates (meps). sites which were rabies virus antigen-positive by immunofluorescence were also cholinesterase- positive on double-stained slides. rabies cvs virus detected by autoradiography was similarly di ...19817031182
rabies virus titer from tissues of naturally infected skunks (mephitis mephitis).rabies virus was titrated from the hippocampus and salivary glands (mandibular, parotid, and sublingual) of 19 naturally infected skunks. selection of the skunks was based on a positive fluorescent antibody test (fat) on the hippocampus. one fat- and virus isolation-negative skunk served as a control. the fat was positive on 19 mandibular salivary glands, 16 parotid glands, and 17 sublingual glands. rabies virus was subsequently isolated in albino swiss mice from all (ie, 19) hippocampi and mand ...19817034605
presence of specific antigens in neuronal cells infected with fixed and street rabies virus strains.the presence of rabies specific antigens is investigated after infection with different rabies virus strains in neural cell lines and in the central nervous system of laboratory rodents. in fixed rabies infected cells, the rabies glycoprotein is found to be present 48 h after infection, whereas in hamsters this protein was found 5 days after an intracerebral inoculation. in contrast, rabies glycoprotein was not detectable in any of the street rabies-infected cell system by the fluorescent antibo ...19817036643
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay: a rapid reproducible test for the measurement of rabies antibody.an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was developed for detecting igg antibodies to the pitman moore strain of rabies virus in sera from subjects immunised wih hdcs vaccine. end-point titres of antibody were determined using a pocket calculator preprogrammed to analyse absorbence values of test sera and negative controls. the assay was highly reproducible, and very close agreement was achieved when the results were compared with those of the mouse neutralization test. rabies enzyme-linked ...19827038045
rhesus diploid rabies vaccine (adsorbed), a new rabies vaccine. results of initial clinical studies of preexposure vaccination.to meet the need for a safe, efficacious, and low-cost rabies vaccination program, the michigan department of public health developed a new rabies vaccine: rhesus diploid rabies vaccine, adsorbed (rdrv). initial clinical studies were conducted in 534 volunteers using preexposure protocols consisting of two injections of rdrv given 1, 2, or 4 weeks apart. this new rabies vaccine induced an excellent rabies virus antibody response two to three weeks after vaccination: antibody levels were superior ...19827038159
pathogenesis of rabies in dogs inoculated with an ethiopian rabies virus strain. immunofluorescence, histologic and ultrastructural studies of the central nervous system.dogs were inoculated with either an ethiopian of mexican rabies virus strain. the distribution of viral antigen and lesions were studied by immunofluorescence, histologic and electron microscopic techniques. in all dogs inoculated with the ethiopian rabies virus strain, tremendous whorls of filamentous fluorescing aggregates were observed throughout the brain; these were not observed in dogs inoculated with the mexican virus. lesions consisted on neuronal degeneration and neuronophagia, associat ...19827039557

is the acetylcholine receptor a rabies virus receptor?rabies virus was found on mouse diaphragms and on cultured chick myotubes in a distribution coinciding with that of the acetylcholine receptor. treatment of the myotubes with alpha-bungarotoxin and d-tubocurarine before the addition of the virus reduced the number of myotubes that became infected with rabies virus. these findings together suggest that acetylcholine receptors may serve as receptors for rabies virus. the binding of virus to acetylcholine receptors, which are present in high densit ...19827053569
dual role of the immune response in street rabiesvirus infection of mice.the cellular and humoral immune responses of mice to footpad injection of salivary gland suspensions of street rabiesvirus were investigated. suppression of these responses with cyclophosphamide both increased the overall mortality rate from (50 to 100%) and delayed onset of disease signs and death for 1 to 2 weeks. despite the absence of disease signs in these immunosuppressed animals, virus was present in the central nervous system, as shown by fluorescent-antibody staining of corneal epitheli ...19827054123
human diploid cell rabies vaccine. effectiveness of immunization with small intradermal or subcutaneous doses.to determine antibody responses to small doses of human diploid cell rabies vaccine (hdcv), we determined rabies antibody titers in 124 volunteers who had been vaccinated with one of five primary preexposure regimens. in a sixth group of 47 persons previously vaccinated with duck embryo rabies vaccine (dev), we evaluated the booster responses after a 0.1-ml dose of intradermal (id) hdcv. persons in all five groups undergoing primary immunization received three doses of vaccine, one each on days ...19827057603
rabies in ethiopia.rabies is one of the most severe infectious diseases in ethiopia, with many cases of the disease diagnosed in various parts of the country. the dog is the species most responsible for human exposure, with over 98% of the human cases and vaccinations due to the bite of rabid or suspected rabid dogs. most of the treatments are due to stray dogs that bite, escape and are not available for observation. most of the people who die of rabies are under 40 years of age, and among adults, the majority of ...19827058785

scanning and freeze-fracture electron microscopy of rabies virus infection in murine neuroblastoma cells.a persistent infection of cvs strain of rabies virus was established in murine neuroblastoma cells, c-1300, by a serial passage of the cells infected with a low input multiplicity. little cytopathic effects were seen in the infected cultures and the cell growth was not interfered, although 90-100% of the cells were bearing intracytoplasmic inclusions and the infectious virus was constantly recovered from the supernatant. scanning electron microscopy disclosed preferential budding of the virus fr ...19827128058
avirulent mutants of the cvs strain of rabies virus.two avirulent mutants of the cvs strain of rabies virus have been isolated on the basis of their loss of sensitivity to antiglycoprotein neutralizing monoclonal antibodies. with the exception of virulence, both retain general characteristics of the cvs strain of the rabies virus. after inoculation, they induce a strong and rapid immune response in adult mice. in this respect, however, they are quite different from the parental cvs strain. surviving mice are protected against intramuscular challe ...19827128059
[role of interferon in rabies immunity].cell cultured rabies vaccines, usually induce a good production of interferon. a comparative study shows that vaccines from primary explantation cell cultures are better interferon inducers. taking into account the importance of this induction in rabies vaccination, a study showing the role of leucocyte interferon (alpha-type) is achieved. results show that leucocyte interferon (originating from the red cross, osaka, japan and institut pasteur production, paris) inhibits the formation of fluores ...19827128060
[haemagglutination inhibition test: improvements, limits and advantages of the method. comparison with neutralization test].in this study, we report some technical improvements which enable us to envisage wider use of the haemagglutination test and haemagglutination inhibition of the rabies virus. moderated trypsination of sensitive red blood cells and their counting are important parameters. an interesting application of the test was the haemagglutination competition enabling the amount of soluble glycoprotein (obtained during the fractionating of the virus components) to be evaluated. from antibody kinetics of vacc ...19827128064
small mammal studies in a sad baiting area.studies in the laboratory or in the field on the effect of sad virus on small rodents are reported. laboratory experiments by oral inoculation of sad strain in a wide variety of small mammals led to the conclusion that spontaneous sad transmission from rodent to rodent is a rare event. field experiments were conducted by live-trapping, sacrifice and analysis of 192 apodemus sylvaticus, 28 clethrionomys glareolus and 48 crocidura russula. they gave no indication that sad virus became established ...19827128065
safety tests with flury hep strain 675 in wild-living european mammals.for the evaluation of residual pathogenicity of flury hep strain 675, the vaccinal virus was orally administered to 207 animals belonging to 15 wild-living and 1 domestic species. rabies virus antigen could be demonstrated by fa method in 20 animals. reisolation of the virus was possible from 23 animals within the first two weeks after application, the titres being very low. during the observation period of 100 days no symptoms of rabies could be observed in the animals tested.19827128066
effectivity of oral vaccination of foxes against rabies with flury hep strain 675.a group of 14 adult foxes was orally vaccinated with 2 ml flury hep strain 675, titre 10(8.2 tcid50. each fox seroconverted neutralizing antibody titres ranging between 1:40 and 1:640. these foxes survived an intramuscular challenge with 8000 mouse ld50 pathogenic rabies virus, whereas six out of seven unprotected control foxes died within 28 days. this study was accompanied by virus isolation, fluorescence microscopic examination and neutralization tests.19827128067
[evaluation of an experimental rabies vaccine by the oral and intestinal route with inactivated vaccines, concentrated or non-concentrated].application of beta-propiolactone inactivated rabies vaccine prepared in bovine embryo kidney cells, concentrated or non concentrated, by intestinal or oral route resulted in antibody production in rats and cats. 80-100% of vaccinated rats were protected against challenge with street rabies virus. the same vaccines (lyophilized in gelatin capsules) stimulated antibody production in more than 50% (5/8) cats which received the vaccine by the oral route.19827128069
[attenuated rabies virus, era strain, in cattle and dogs vaccinated with multiple doses].investigation on the vaccination of 18 cattle and 5 dogs against rabies is reported. each animal received multiple doses of era strain vaccine intramuscularly in the gluteal or masseter region. the saliva, the brain and salivary glands of the vaccinated animals were examined to detect the presence of era virus using immunofluorescent test and mouse inoculation. the virus was never found in the saliva and organs of treated animals. circulating antibodies against era rabies virus were detected in ...19827128070
antibody levels following era rabies vaccine in cattle.the humoral response in cattle treated with era strain rabies vaccine, was studied utilizing the following criteria: antibody titres determined by rffit, seroimmunological monitoring of experimentally vaccinated animals, a comparison of data obtained from cattle vaccinated and maintained under field conditions in the absence of anamnestic information. the average antibody responses in the field experiment are in agreement with the laboratory animal response, both showing highest levels at day 15 ...19827128071
the structural proteins of rabies virus.the five structural proteins of rabies virus, l, g, n, m1 and m2 have been re-evaluated in light of recent results. it has been found that the m1 protein is associated with the n protein which together with the l protein and the rna forms the nucleocapsid complex. only the g and m2 proteins could be visualized on the surface of infected cells. therefore, it is proposed that the m1 protein be renamed ns analogous to vesicular stomatitis virus and that the m2 protein, being the only membrane prote ...19827128073
purification, concentration and evaluation of rabies virus antigen.a number of concentration and purification procedures for rabies virus antigen have been developed during the last decades but only ultrafiltration and density gradient centrifugation have been found suitable for large scale production. the antibody binding test developed by arko, wiktor and sikes was modified and was found useful for evaluation of inactivated antigen-concentrates. this test was used as an 'in process' control. three examples of practical experience are reported and discussed.19827128074
[modalities of production and immunity conferred by an inactivated rabies vaccine originating from cell culture].further to guidelines advised by the world health organization, an inactivated rabies vaccine was prepared from virus propagated on cell culture. this vaccine is presented either in the freeze-dried form or in the liquid form together with an immunity adjuvant. the specific and nonspecific immunity of the vaccine is excellent. the potency, tested in laboratory animals and in species for which the vaccine is intended, satisfies recommendations published by the w.h.o. the immunity persistence, eva ...19827128075
potency of two rabies vaccines in cats as determined by antibody assay and virulent virus challenge.the persistence of immunity induced by a modified live virus rabies vaccine (sad strain) and an inactivated rabies vaccine combined with panleukopenia vaccine in cats was studied serologically and by virulent rabies virus challenge. the source of challenge virus was a suspension of a dog salivary gland. all 16 cats vaccinated with the inactivated vaccine developed high antibody titres and 15 were protected against the virus challenge. all 8 cats vaccinated with the mlv vaccine produced a serolog ...19827128076
[radio-tracking of rabid foxes].three wild foxes were trapped, inoculated with rabid fox salivary glands virus and radio-tracked straightaway for about three weeks until the death of the animal. comparison of movements between incubation and clinical period indicate principally no obvious alteration of the activity area; an important increase in movement, especially during the day-time and lastly some variable changes in the activity pattern according to the individual. a common characteristic was a long period of immobility, ...19827128084
[influence of rabies virus culture duration on viral glycoprotein integrity].regardless of the duration of the culture period, the amount of both glycoprotein g and sialic acid bound to the rabies virion as not modified. the major proteins of the viral suspension were the same proteins as those of the virion, except one glycoprotein (mw 70,000).19827128091
[possible role of ticks as a reservoir of rabies virus].in western europe the fox and other carnivora are parasitized by two specific ticks. the study of host-parasite relationships and knowledge of rabies epidemiology led us to investigate for a possible part played by ticks as reservoir of rabies virus. several hundreds of ticks (pholeoixodes hexagonus and pholeoixodes canisuga) were collected on wild foxes. ticks collected from naturally infected rabid foxes were set on healthy foxes in order to contaminate them. ticks collected from non-rabid fox ...19827128092
[molecular and cellular aspects of the pathogenesis of rabies].the true causes of the beginning of the symptoms and the eventual mortality of rabies are not very well known. immunopathological factors certainly intervene, but they only complete a process of neuronal alteration. contrary to other viruses which lyse the infected cells, the rabies virus does not necessarily destroy the neurones which are the preferential target cells. on the contrary, rna synthesis is stimulated during cns infection by the rabies virus. synthesis is not stimulated by the multi ...19827128098
[progression of the rabies virus in the visual system of the rat].the cvs rabies virus, inoculated in the anterior chamber of the eye, is transported from the retina to the central nervous system only along the accessory optic tract and invades transsynaptically its terminal nuclei. on the other hand the retino-geniculo-cortical system is affected much later. thus the virus shows a special affinity for a well defined neuronal system and behaves as a precise tracer of its intracerebral connections.19827128099
rabies virus pathogenicity and challenge. influence of the method of preparation, the route of inoculation, and the species. comparison of the characteristics of the modified, fixed and wild strains.the challenge we carried out, which regularly brought about the death of the control animals, led us to study the different factors influencing the pathogenicity of the rabies virus. so, the method of preparation is important. the strain nyc, prepared from the salivary glands is extremely pathogenic for dogs; however, when it is prepared from mouse brains after nine passages have been made, it proves to be already partially modified. one then notices a death-rate which is less severe, even when ...19827128100

comparative study of rabies virus persistence in human and hamster cell lines.persistent infections by rabies virus in bhk-21/13s and hep-2 cells were studied comparatively. no evidence of interferon production, selection of virus-resistant cells, or integration of the viral genome could be found. persisting viruses replicated efficiently at 34, 36, and 40 degrees c. both persistently infected cultures released defective interfering virus particles. a cyclical pattern of infection, which was not characteristic of the persistently infected hep-2 system, was observed in per ...19817218421

recovery from clinical rabies of 2 dogs inoculated with a rabies virus strain from ethiopia.two dogs, inoculated with a strain of rabies virus from ethiopia, showed typical signs of rabies 8 days after inoculation. after 3 or 4 days with a deterioration in the physical condition, both animals began to recover, as shown by increased muscular movements, reaction to stimuli, awareness of surroundings, and attempts to rise. both animals recovered completely, although 1 then died of pseudomonas bacterial pneumonia. an increase in serum-neutralizing antibody and in csf or brain-neutralizing ...19807224288
determination of serum neutralization antibodies to rabies virus by a modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis test.a modified counterimmunoelectrophoresis (cie/sn) technique was developed as a diagnostic procedure for the detection of serum-neutralizing antibodies to rabies virus. cie/sn test results with sera from individuals undergoing postexposure rabies immunization compared favorably with those obtained by the standard mouse neutralization test procedure. fractionation of selected sera by sephadex g-200 column chromatography demonstrated that serological activity involved in both procedures was present ...19807229005

[pathomorphology of abortive rabies].white random-bred mice inoculated intraperitoneally with street rabies virus were found to have numerous babes-negri bodies in cerebral neurons very frequently up to 5 days of the disease. on the 7-11th days of the disease the inclusions were found in some neurons in 11 of 17 mice examined. among 24 mice with abortive rabies (recovering completely or surviving with residual symptoms such as pareses or paralysis) examined on the 20-240th days after the onset occasional babes-negri bodies were fou ...19817257316
[rna synthesis in cells chronically infected with rabies virus].rnas of predominantly subgenome size were synthesized in bhk-21 and hep-2 cells chronically infected with rabies virus in the presence of actinomycin d. an analysis of glyoxale-denaturated intracellular viral rnas in agarose gel showed the subgenome size of rna not to be due to its conformation alterations. hybridization of intracellular rnas with 125i-rna or k3h-kdna of rabies virus demonstrated marked reduction in both transcription and replication of viral genome in chronic infection as compa ...19817257325

experimental rabies in cats: immune response and persistence of immunity.experimental rabies was studied in cats under defined conditions. a correlation between the virus dosage and the incubation period was established and results were compared with those published previously by others. the susceptibility of cats to rabies virus appears to be paradoxical. the persistence of the immunity induced by an inactivated rabies vaccine prepared form cell culture-propagated virus used in combination with feline panleukopenia vaccine, with or without adjuvant, was studied thro ...19817261592
