title: [B-cell and cytotoxic lymphocyte immune response to virulent, attenuated and reassortant influenza viruses].
abstract: The quantitative estimation of the production of the virus specific IgA-, IgM-, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG3-antibody secreting B-cells (ASC) and extent of the immune response of the cytotoxic T-lymphocytes was carried out in mice after primary and secondary immunization with the parental cold adapted (ca) virulent epidemic wild-type (wt) master strain viruses and their reassortant variant (RV) with the incorporated in their genom different genes from ca master strain. The chick embryo derived ca master strain virus A/Len/134/47/57 (H2N2) reduced or eliminated the viral potency to induce the primary B-cellular response. Reassortant incorporation of wt derived HA and NA genes into the ca virus genome restored the virus immunogenic activity concerning the ASC production, but at the lower level than parental virulent virus. Reassortance of the viruses according to generally accepted genom formula 6/2 was associated with decrement of the functional activity of the cytotoxic T-lymphocytes memory and of the primary immune response especially. The data obtain demonstrate the necessity for the control of the immunogenicity of the reassortant viruses at the cloning stage.
