Embodiment Construction

[0017] To study the function of RSV proteins in more detail, deletion mutants of BRSV lacking the NS1 gene or both NS1 and NS2 genes were generated and their expression was studied in different cell lines.

[0018] The first phenomenon was observed after infection of MDBK cells (very sensitive to wt BRSV infection, and the titer of wt BRSV was higher than all other cell lines tested), that is, the sensitivity of NS deletion mutants to host cytokines was reduced. improved. However, viruses lacking one or both NS genes grew poorly in MDBK cells, whereas in other cell lines such as Vero or BSR, the lack of NS genes only reduced infection titers by a factor of 10. Co-culture experiments confirmed that type I interferon, a decisive host cytokine, was produced by BRSV-infected MDBK cells. Apparently, in infected MDBK cultures, an antiviral state can be induced by stimulation of autocrine and paracrine cells. Although wt BRSV was able to counteract this response, none of the NS del...

Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of pneumonia virus NS1 protein and / or NS2 protein or nucleic acid encoding pneumonia virus NS1 protein and / or NS2 protein in the manufacture of pharmaceutical preparations for attenuating interferon (IFN)-mediated immune responses. The present invention also relates to recombinant pneumonia viruses, in particular respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) with enhanced, reduced resistance or lack of resistance to interferon (IFN)-mediated immune responses. The invention further relates to recombinant viruses with increased resistance to interferon (IFN)-mediated immune responses, and the use of said viruses in pharmaceutical formulations (eg, vaccines).

Description

Background of the invention [0001] Technical Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to the use of pneumovirus NS1 protein and / or NS2 protein or nucleic acid encoding pneumovirus NS1 protein and / or NS2 protein to produce a pharmaceutical preparation for weakening interferon (IFN)-mediated immune response. The invention further relates to recombinant pneumoviruses, in particular respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) with enhanced, attenuated or lacking resistance to host interferon (IFN) mediated immune responses to interferon (IFN) mediated immune responses Recombinant viruses with increased resistance, and the use of these viruses in pharmaceutical formulations (eg, vaccines). [0003] Description of prior art [0004] Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) is the most important causative agent of respiratory disease in calves, causing significant economic losses (40; 45). The immune response and pathol...
