Provided is a flavivirus cross neutralizing antibody which has an excellent ability to control infection with suppressed ADE. This is a flavivirus cross neutralizing antibody that specifically binds to domains of E protein of flavivirus and thereby has an ability to control infection with at least two viruses included in the flavivirus. The domains of E protein include a plurality of domains including domain III. The flavivirus includes, for example, Zika virus, dengue virus types 1-4, and Japanese encephalitis virus.

The invention relates to an influenza vaccine composition for spray-administration to nasal mucosa, which comprises an inactivated whole influenza virion and a gel base material comprising carboxy vinyl polymer, which is characterized by not comprising an adjuvant.
摘要:
The present invention provides a nucleic acid comprises a 5' untranslated region, an NS3 protein coding region, an NS4A protein coding region, an NS4B protein coding region, an NS5A protein coding region, an NS5B protein coding region, and a 3' untranslated region of a hepatitis C virus genome, wherein the nucleic acid has nucleotide substitutions causing one or more amino acid substitutions selected from the group consisting of M(1205)K, F(1548)L, C(1615)W, T(1652)N, A(2196)T, A(2218)S, H(2223)Q, Q(2281)R, K(2520)N, and G(2374)S, as defined using the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 6 in the Sequence Listing as a reference sequence, in the NS3 protein coding region, the NS5A protein coding region, or the NS5B protein coding region.
摘要:
An oligonucleotide primer capable of specifically hybridizing with an arbitrary base sequence designed from the base sequence of hemagglutinin of H5 or H7 avian influenza virus; a method of nucleic acid amplification using the primer; a method of diagnosing any infection with H5 or H7 avian influenza virus through detection of nucleic acid amplification; and a kit for influenza diagnosis.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for producing infectious hepatitis C virus (HCV) particles, comprising a step of introducing an expression vector into a cell that allows HCV proliferation, such expression vector comprising: DNA sequences encoding the 5' untranslated region, structural proteins, and, if necessary, non-structural proteins of HCV and DNA sequences encoding non-structural proteins and the 3' untranslated region derived from the HCV JFH1 strain, which are located downstream of a polymerase I promoter; and a DNA fragment containing an RNA polymerase I terminator, which is located further downstream thereof.
摘要:
A recombinant BCG vaccine being transformed with an expression vector that has a polynucleotide encoding a foreign antigenic protein, wherein the polynucleotide is a modified one in which a third position of each codon is substituted with G or C without a change of an amino acid. This recombinant BCG vaccine has an excellent expression rate of antigenic protein and, as a result, capable of inducing a sufficient immune response against target infectious disease, cancer, or the like at the same dose as that of the typical BCG vaccine.
摘要:
The present invention provides a vaccine containing a Sendai virus vector encoding a virus protein of an immunodeficiency virus. By intranasally administering a Sendai virus encoding a virus protein of an immunodeficiency virus to a macaque monkey, the present inventors have succeeded in efficiently inducing protective immunity against an immunodeficiency virus. As a result of intranasal inoculation of vaccine, expression of an antigen protein mediated by Sendai virus vector was detected in intranasal mucous membrane and local lymph nodes and antigen-specific cellular immune response was induced at a significant level. No pathological symptom by vaccination was observed. After vaccination, exposure of simian immunodeficiency virus was performed and the effect was examined. As a result, the amount of virus in plasma significantly decreased, compared with that of the control animal. The vaccine of the present invention is promising as an AIDS vaccine.
