Local pathological reactions induced in pigs and cats by adjuvant ISA-70 containing inactivated Newcastle disease virus antigen.
Gross and microscopic changes at the injection site in pigs and cats were investigated for 8 weeks after an intramuscular injection of oil adjuvant ISA-70 emulsion, containing inactivated Newcastle disease virus antigen. In pigs, an egg-sized and discolored lesion with pinpoint to miliary-sized nodules was observed at 2 to 8 weeks post injection (PI). In cats, there was partial thickening of the subcutaneous tissue at 2 to 8 weeks PI. Histopathologic changes in pigs were fundamentally similar to those in cats, however, the local tissue reactions in pigs were severer and more protracted than those in cats. The lesions in pigs were characterized by formation of large-sized cysts and well-developed encapsulation of the cysts with epithelioid cells.
