Abstract:
Objective To investigate the possibility of adaptation seasonal influenza virus H1N1 and H3N2 vaccine strains in BALB/C mice.Methods BALB/c mice were infected with wild-type virus and lungs were dissected out at peak of virus multiplication to generate the first passage of mouse adapted virus (P1),which was subjected serial mouse lung-to-lung passages (from P1 to P10).Pathogenicity and genome sequences of wide-type and mouse-adapted virus were compared.Results For H3N2 vaccine strain,virus titer was under detection at any passages.In contrast,for H1N1 vaccine strain,virus replication ability and pathogenicity increased by lung-to-lung passage.Genome sequence analysis of H1Nlwt and H1N1MA indicated that mutation of HA-N142D contributed to the enhanced virulence.Conclusions H3N2 vaccine strain was difficult to replicate in mice while H1 N1 vaccine strain could effectively replicate in BALB/c mice and mutation of HA-N142D contributed to the enhanced virulence.
