To make the vaccines, the researchers stripped the vesicular stomatitis virus of a particular gene and replaced it either with a gene that encodes a protein on the Marburg virus or with a gene for a protein on the Ebola virus. Each was then transfected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) G protein and measurable virus was recovered from only the hybrid-containing chromosome 2. The study, presented at the 47th Annual Meeting of the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB), also showed that Cryopharm's technology can inactivate vesicular stomatitis virus, a model for lipid-enveloped viruses such as hepatitis C and, furthermore, confirmed previous findings demonstrating Cryopharm's ability to inactivate the human immunodeficiency virus Type 1 (HIV-1). |
