pubmed:abstractText
Neospora caninum infection is the major cause of bovine abortion. To develop a vaccine against N. caninum infection, recombinant vaccinia viruses carrying NcSRS2 and NcSAG1 genes (vv/Nc-p43 and vv/Nc-p36, respectively) were constructed and were tested in a mouse model. Vaccination of dams with vv/Nc-p43 appeared to confer effective protection against vertical transmission to offspring, though that with vv/Nc-p36 only provided partial protection. Moreover, the vv/Nc-p43 vaccination provoked cellular immune responses and antibody production against N. caninum. In conclusion, it is expected that vv/Nc-p43 can be used as an effective live vaccine to prevent vertical transmission of N. caninum in natural hosts.
