Abstract

BALB/c mice were immunized with 50 µg, 100 µg, 200 µg of pcDNA-PRRSV-ORF5 DNA vaccine respectively by intramuscular injection, with PBS and pcDNA3.1(+) as controls. Fluorescence activated cell Sorter (FACS) was used to detect the number of CD+4 and CD+8 T-lymphocytes. T-lymphocyte proliferation test was used to detect proliferation of the T-lymphocyte cells in peripheral blood lymphocytes of mice vaccinated with pcDNA-PRRSV-ORF5 DNA vaccine. The results showed that the difference in ConA response to T-lymphocytes in blood was highly significant between all experimental groups and the control group (P<0.01). The number of CD4+ T-lymphocytes in experimental groups was significantly higher than that of the control group 7 d after vaccination. The number of CD8+ T-lymphocytes in the experimental groups was higher than that of the control group 28 d after vaccination. Mice immunized with a higher dose (200 µg) of DNA vaccine demonstrated higher cellular immune response than those immunized with a lower dose (100 µg, 50 µg) of DNA vaccine. The results demonstrated that pcDNA-PRRSV-ORF5 DNA vaccine could induce a good cellular immune response which may be dose-dependent.
