Abstract

Introduction. Rubella is currently an infection controlled by specific prophylaxis. Not only the right vaccine prophylaxis strategy and tactics, but also the use of effective and safe vaccine preparations is crucial for the elimination of this disease.

The aim of the investigation was to study the morphological and pathogenetic patterns of changes developing in the central nervous system (CNS) and internal organs of monkeys (Haplorhini) during intracerebral inoculation with 2 strains of rubella virus (Matonaviridae: Rubivirus: Rubella virus) (RV): highly attenuated Orlov-B, and low attenuated Orlov-14.

Material and methods. In the experiments, seronegative rhesus macaque monkeys (Macaca mulatta) weighing 3.3–5.1 kg (n = 7) were used. Neurovirulence of the strains was determined by a complex of clinical, pathomorphological, and virological methods.

Results and discussion. It was found that during attenuation, the Orlov-B strain lost the ability to replicate in CNS cells and induce moderate/expressed specific changes in them, as well as to overcome the blood-brain barrier and cause the damage of sensitive organs and tissues. This fact indicates a low level of residual neurovirulence of the vaccine strain.

Conclusion. The results obtained in this study regarding the clinical symptoms of CNS lesions and the nature of the pathological process in its tissues in experimental animals can be significant for the improvement of safety control of live rubella vaccines. These data indicate that the Orlov-B strain can be considered as a candidate strain for further study on the development of a rubella vaccine based on the domestic vaccine strain.
