Résumé : Because of its high infectivity in humans and the lack of effective vaccines, Nipah virus is classified as a category C agent and handling has to be performed under biosafety level 4 conditions in non-endemic countries, which has hindered the development of vaccines. Based on a highly efficient pseudovirus production system using a modified HIV backbone vector, a pseudovirus-based mouse model has been developed for evaluating the efficacy of Nipah vaccines in biosafety level 2 facilities. For the first time, the correlates of protection have been identified in a mouse model. The limited levels of neutralizing antibodies against immunogens fusion protein (F), glycoprotein (G), and combination of F and G (FG) were found to be 148, 275, and 115, respectively, in passive immunization. Relatively lower limited levels of protection of 52, and 170 were observed for immunogens F, and G, respectively, in an active immunization model. Although the minimal levels for protection of neutralizing antibody in passive immunization were slightly higher than those in active immunization, neutralizing antibody played a key role in protection against Nipah virus infection. The immunogens F and G provided similar protection, and the combination of these immunogens did not provide better outcomes. Either immunogen F or G would provide sufficient protection for Nipah vaccine. The Nipah pseudovirus mouse model, which does not involve highly pathogenic virus, has the potential to greatly facilitate the standardization and implementation of an assay to propel the development of NiV vaccines.
