The present proposal addresses four main objectives:
  1. Development of methodologies to improve the production and purification of a fast-growing HAV strain in cell cultures used in vaccine manufacturing. Antigenic characterization of naked and pseudo-enveloped-particles.
  2. Characterization of the immunogenic properties in mice of HAV pseudo-enveloped-particles compared with nakedparticles.
  3. Evaluation of the protective effect generated by a potential vaccine based on pseudo-enveloped particles, compared to naked-particles, in a mouse model of hepatitis A infection.
  4. Characterization of the immunogenic properties in pigs of HAV pseudo-enveloped-particles compared with nakedparticles.
