| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Norovirus is a major causative virus of infectious gastroenteritis, however, there is no fundamental treatment for norovirus infection, the development of a vaccine is desired. We were cloned the genes of antigen of the virus from norovirus GII.4 stocks of the recent outbreak in Japan. These genes were introduced into a non-proliferative type virus vector and produced norovirus vaccines. In 2014-2015 winter, norovirus GII.17 had been epidemic, antigenicity of GII.17 was different to GII.4. GII.17 vaccine was produced as well. These two vaccines, using a rapid test kit, it was confirmed that antigenicity is positive. The effect of vaccine each alone, or the combination of the vaccine of multivalent vaccine is now studying using the mouse. Rotavirus is also a major causative virus of infectious gastroenteritis, especially to children. We also produce Rota virus vaccine as well, and also plan to examine the effects of norovirus and rotavirus combination vaccine.
