| Research Abstract |
We conducted epidemiological study to specify the endemic area of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), evaluated the pathogenicity of TBE virus Hokkaido strain and tested the efficacy of European TBE vaccine to Hokkaido TBE virus strain. We also performed phylogenetic study of TBE virus Hokkaido strainsto estimate the origin.
The results showed that TBE virus distribute in southern part of Hokkaido from the positive antibody results in dog and horse sera. Reservoir animals of TBE virus in Hokkaido were found to be Clethrionomys rufocanus and Apodemus speciosus from virus isolation results. TBE virus Hokkaido strains possessed common pathogenicity shared among TBE virus strains. TBE virus Hokkaido strain diverged from ancestor virus in Far East several hundred years ago. Another subtype of TBE virus, Siberian subtype was found to distribute in Siberian area of Russia. European type TBE virus vaccine was found to be efficacious to TBE virus Hokkaido, Far Eastern and Siberian strains. Monochlonal antibodies against TBE virus Hokkaido strain were produced and found to be useful for diagnosis.
