Immune Response to a Killed Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Vaccine in Inbred Chicken Lines with Different Major Histocompatibility Complex Haplotypes
1 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
The influence of MHC on antibody responses to killed infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) vaccine was investigated in several MHC inbred chicken lines. We found a notable MHC haplotype effect on the specific antibody response against IBDV as measured by ELISA. Some MHC haplotypes were high responders (B201, B4, and BR5), whereas other MHC haplotypes were low responders (B19, B12 and BW3). The humoral response...
