[ Methods] The 14-day-old SPF chickens were immunized with recombinant plasmids expressing VP2 protein and Akirin2 protein, and strength- ened immunization was conducted at the 14'~ day after the first immunization. Finally, test chickens were challenged with IBDVBC6-85 virulent strain. [ Resultss ] Test results showed that Akirin2 gene could enhance the specific immune response induced by VP2 DNA vaccine, improve the proliferation of peripheral blood lym- phocytes and 'affect the expressing of cytokines TNF-a, IFN-Y, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL 6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-17 and IL-18. Effects of recombinant plasmids co-ex- pressing Akirin2 protein and VP2 protein on cytokine expression showed some differences with the recombinant plasmids expressing Akirir/2 protein or VP2 protein along. [ Conclusions] Chicken Akirin2 gene could significantly enhance the humoral immune response and cellular immune response induced by VP2 DNA vaccine of IBDV.展开更多
