Abstract
Aim. To determine the effects of the combined administration of recombinant expression vectors containing genes of murine interleukin-2 and interleukin-12 on humoral immune response, elicited by the experimental marker DNA-vaccine against classical swine fever. Methods. Expression of chimeric proteins in vitro and in vivo was determined by western-blot analysis. The antibodies specific to target antigens in blood serum have been detected by ELISA. Results. A series of recombinant plasmid vectors containing the genes of murine interleukin-2 and chimeric murine interleukin-12 have been developed. It has been shown that target chimeric proteins were expressed from the developed vectors both in vitro in HEK293 and in vivo in murine muscle tissue. The use of combined administration of murine interleukin-2 and interleukin-12 genes resulted in significant enhancement of titer of the anti-E2 and anti-β-galactosidase IgG, induced by vaccination with experimental marker DNA-vaccine against CSF, and model DNA-vaccine respectively. Conclusions. The data obtained show that the introduction of recombinant expressing vectors containing genes of murine interleukin-2 and interleukin-12 into vaccine preparations enhances humoral immune response elicited by the experimental marker DNA-vaccine against CSF and modelDNA-vaccine. Keywords: DNA-vaccine, humoral immune response, interleukin-2, interleukin-12, classical swine fever.
