The salient features of this vaccine study are: (1) A prime-boost intranasal vaccination approach with recombinant VSVs expressing the WNV E glycoprotein produced robust CD8 + IFN␥ + T cell responses; (2) This vaccine approach produced strong neutralizing titers against the WNV; (3) Vaccinated mice were protected against lethal challenge and they were free of neuronal necrosis, while unvaccinated mice There was no statistically significant difference observed between these two groups. These results suggest that a prime-boost VSV-vectored intranasal vaccine approach induces strong humoral and cellular immune responses that protect mice against WNV-induced neuronal necrosis. ./cache/cord-276009-p98wjtjb.txt ./txt/cord-276009-p98wjtjb.txt
