Figure 3. Neurovirulence of VDPVs in Transgenic PVR-Tg Mice.

Figure 3

A given dose of virus was used to inoculate intracerebrally (IC) or intraperitoneally (IP) groups of PVR-Tg mice expressing the human poliovirus receptor (8–10 animals per virus). Animals were checked daily for 14 d following inoculation for paralysis and death. Percentages of affected mice following inoculation of viruses MAD 04 to MAD 07, MAD 29, and of a positive neurovirulent control virus S2/4568 are given. Strain S2/4568 was used only for IP inoculation. IP or IC inoculation of the vaccine strain Sabin 2 did not induce disease in animals.
