ABSTRACT: Newcastle disease (ND) is a highly contagious avian disease, causing considerable economic losses to the poultry industry. To obtain a safe, inexpensive, and effective ND vaccine to meet the international trade requirements of differentiating infected from vaccinated animals (DIVA), here we report the production of Oryza sativa recombinant fusion (F) protein in stably transformed transgenic rice seeds via agroinfiltration. The F protein expression level was enhanced 3.6-fold with a genetic background in low glutelin. Inoculation of plant-produced F antigen into Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) chickens markedly elicited neutralizing antibody responses against homologous and heterologous ND virus strains. Two doses of 4.5 ?g fully protected chickens from a lethal ND challenge without any clinical symptoms. The mean weight gain of F protein-immunized chickens within 15 days after challenge was significantly higher than that of traditional whole virus vaccine-immunized chickens, thereby obtaining higher economic benefits. Moreover, the sera from the chickens vaccinated with the plant-produced F vaccine did not show reactivity in an immunochromatographic strip targeting the haemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein (HN) protein, and DIVA could be achieved within 10 minutes. Our results demonstrate that the plant-derived F vaccine along with immunochromatographic strips could be useful in the implementation of an NDV eradication program.

Project description:Antitumor conventional treatments including chemo/radiotherapy result in several side effects and non-specificity. Therapies including the use of oncolytic viruses, particularly the Newcastle disease virus (NDV), have emerged as an attractive alternative due to their capacity to kill cancer cells directly or through stimulation of the immune system. In the present study, a commercial vaccine composed of a recombinant attenuated NDV strain P05 (rNDV-P05) was assessed for antitumor and immunostimulatory activity. Firstly, hemagglutination activity was evaluated at different pH and temperature conditions. Then, cancer cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were co-cultured with or without rNDV-P05 and cytoplasmic nucleosomes were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as an apoptosis indicator. Antitumor cytokines produced by PBMC in response to the virus were analyzed by ELISA and reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Characterization of rNDV-P05 indicates that the virus is slightly sensible to acid and basic pH, and stable at temperatures no greater than 42°C. The majority of cell lines developed apoptosis in co-culture with rNDV-P05 in a dose-time dependent manner. The highest level of HeLa, HCC1954 and HepG2 cell apoptosis was at 48 h/50 hemagglutination units (HU), and HL-60 was 24 h/50 HU. A549 cell line and PBMC did not show sensitivity to apoptosis by the virus. PBMC from healthy donors stimulated with the rNDV-P05 increased significantly the levels of interferon (IFN)-α, IFN-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and soluble TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand in culture supernatants, as well as their mRNA expression. These results demonstrate that the pro-apoptotic effect of rNDV-P05 and its magnitude is specific to particular tumor cell lines and is not induced on PBMC; and the virus stimulates the expression of several key antitumor cytokines. This study promotes the use of rNDV-P05 in an alternate application of different viral strains during virotherapy with NDV.
