摘要:
The invention relates to a process for generating infectious Newcastle disease virus (NDV) entirely from cloned full-length cDNA and to the use of vaccines and diagnostic assays generated with and derived from the process. The process offers the possibility to modify the NDV genome by means of genetic modification and allows for the introduction of mutations, deletions and/or insertions. The process can be used to modify the virulence of NDV, thus generating new attenuated live vaccines with enhanced properties. The process can be used to modify the antigenic make-up of NDV, to allow the generation of live NDV marker vaccines that can be serologically distinguished from NDV field strains.

摘要:
The invention relates to methods of stimulating an immune response against an antigenic protein in a mammalian subject. More specifically, the invention relates to routes of administration of a hybrid Newcastle Disease Virus-vector (NDV-vector) for eliciting an immune response against an antigenic protein that is encoded by the hybrid NDV-vector.

摘要:
The invention provides vaccines for preventing and controlling animal diseases, comprising a pseudorabies virus containing glycoprotein gp50 and having a mutation in its gp50 gene. The vaccines are suitable for use against Aujeszky's disease (pseudorabies), or against other animal diseases when the mutation is an insertion comprising a heterologous gene encoding an antigen corresponding to said animal disease. The pseudorabies virus may additionally have at least one mutation in one of its other genes, such as the gp63 gene or the gI gene. The vaccines are unable to spread from vaccinated to non-vaccinated animals.
