摘要Current serum neutralization assays based on the inhibition of the eytopathic effect(Nt-CPE) need to manipulate live viruses,which are time-consuming,labor-intensive,and have the potential exposure to infectious agents,so a safe and objective assay via pseudovirus for the fast and efficient detection of enterovirus 71(EV71 ) neutralizing antibodies was developed.First,we generated EV71 pseudovirus containing firefly luciferase gene in place of the capsid gene P1 in EV71 genome.Vero cells infected with 200 CCID50(50％ cell culture infective dose) of EV71 pseudovirus for 24 h were found to have the best performance.Seval sera were measured by EV71 pseudoparticle neutralization assay(Nt-PPN) and the conventional serological method Nt-CPE.Neutralizing antibody titers measured by Nt-PPN and those obtained by Nt-CPE demonstrate a high correlation between the two methods.Overall,the PPN assay represents a valid alternative to conventional serological methods for the evaluation of EV71 neutralizing antibodies.This method can be used for detecting neutralizing antibodies of other picornaviruses,such as hepatitis A virus(HAV) and coxsackievirus 16(CVA16),and make it possible to determine whether there is cross-reactivity between EV71 and CVA16.
