Antibodies to the A27 protein of vaccinia virus neutralize and protect against infection but represent a minor component of Dryvax vaccine--induced immunityYong He
Division of Viral Products, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, US Food and Drug Administration, Bethesda, MD, USA
J Infect Dis 196:1026-32. 2007..These findings demonstrate that A27 antibodies do not represent the major fraction of neutralizing activity in VIG and suggest that immunity may be augmented by vaccines and immune globulins that include strong antibody responses to A27...
Characterization and use of mammalian-expressed vaccinia virus extracellular membrane proteins for quantification of the humoral immune response to smallpox vaccinesAlonzo D Garcia
Laboratory of DNA Viruses, Division of Viral Products, Center for Biologics and Evaluation and Research FDA, 1401 Rockville Pike, HFM 457, Rockville, MD 20892, USA
Clin Vaccine Immunol 14:1032-44. 2007..The resulting polyclonal antisera were used in Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence assays, indicating that rSFV particles are useful vectors for generating monospecific antisera...
Enhanced immunogenicity and protective effect conferred by vaccination with combinations of modified vaccinia virus Ankara and licensed smallpox vaccine Dryvax in a mouse modelClement A Meseda
Laboratory of DNA Viruses, Division of Viral Products, HFM-457 Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 1401 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Virology 339:164-75. 2005..In addition, both Dryvax and various MVA vaccination protocols elicited antibody responses to the extracellular enveloped form of the virus and afforded protection against a lethal intranasal challenge with vaccinia virus WR...
Recombinant A27 protein synergizes with modified vaccinia Ankara in conferring protection against a lethal vaccinia virus challengeYong He
Division of Viral Products, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, US Food and Drug Administration, 29 Lincoln Drive, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Vaccine 28:699-706. 2010..These findings show that rA27 can synergize with MVA to elicit robust protection that has a dose-sparing effect on MVA and can accelerate protection by eliminating the need for a booster dose...
Evaluation of a needle-free delivery platform for prime-boost immunization with DNA and modified vaccinia virus ankara vectors expressing herpes simplex virus 2 glycoprotein DClement A Meseda
Laboratory of DNA Viruses, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Bethesda, Maryland 20852, USA
Viral Immunol 19:250-9. 2006..Thus, needle-free delivery of plasmid DNA may provide additional flexibility and options for effective prime-boost vaccination...
Smallpox vaccines induce antibodies to the immunomodulatory, secreted vaccinia virus complement control proteinJoan E Adamo
Laboratory of DNA Viruses, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research CBER, US Food and Drug Administration FDA, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
J Gen Virol 90:2604-8. 2009..Mice vaccinated with purified VCP demonstrated a strong humoral response, but were not protected against a moderate lethal challenge of vaccinia virus, suggesting that the humoral response against VCP is not critical for protection...
Passive immunotherapies protect WRvFire and IHD-J-Luc vaccinia virus-infected mice from lethality by reducing viral loads in the upper respiratory tract and internal organsMarina Zaitseva
Division of Viral Products, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Building 29B, Room 4NN06, 8800 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
J Virol 85:9147-58. 2011....

Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, US Food and Drug Administration, 1401 Rockville Pike, HFM 470, Rockville, Maryland 20852, USA
J Med Virol 79:791-802. 2007..Potentially, the proposed method could be used as an identity test and could be extended for the entire viral genome and used to monitor consistency of vaccine production...
Identification and preliminary characterization of vaccinia virus (Dryvax) antigens recognized by vaccinia immune globulinAgnes Jones-Trower
Laboratory of DNA Viruses, Division of Viral Products, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, HFM-457, 1401 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD 20852-1448, USA
