Studies on the role of humoral and cell-mediated immunity in pigs after vaccination with Aujeszky's disease virus.
Humoral and cellular immunity in pigs vaccinated twice with Aujeszky's disease virus (ADV) was studied by seroneutralizing test and direct leucocyte migration inhibition technique. Significant migration inhibition of leucocytes (LMI) was found on the fifth day, whereas specific antibodies began to appear at that time only in very low titers. Anamnestic reaction due to the second injection of ADV did not bring about a significant increase of migration inhibition of leucocytes, instead the level of antibodies elevated markedly.
