[Experimental study of the ability of different strains of vaccinia virus to induce autoantibody formation].

The intensity of autoantibody production to red blood cell lysate in guinea pigs inoculated with smallpox vaccine prepared from different strains was studied at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after vaccine inoculation. The dynamics of autoantibody production in the same animals as well as the influence of altered responsiveness of the animals pre-treated with dyphtheria toxin on the intensity of autoantibody production were determined. The autoantibody-inducing activity correlated with reactogenicity of the strains and was most marked in the white cloned variant of the Tashkent strain, slightly lower in the L-IVP strain being intermediate in this criterion and insignificant in poorly reactogenic EM-63 and B-51 strains. In the animals with altered responsiveness the autoimmune responses were increased. The results of this study were tested statistically.

[Several characteristics of new strains of diploid green marmoset fibroblasts].

Two strains of diploid fibroblasts were derived from green monkey fetal lungs and their main properties were studied. These strains were shown not to differ principally from the well studied human diploid fibroblasts. The derived cultures are free from contaminating viruses. The titers of attenuated poliomyelitis virus strains achieved in green monkey diploid cells are comparable to those in primary cultures of green monkey kidneys. The possiblity of using green monkey diploid fibroblasts in virological practice is discussed.
