Abstract:
:An assay based on the inhibition of syncytium formation in C8166 cells was developed to measure low levels of neutralising antibody (NT-AB) to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and to detect cross-reactivity between virus strains. The relationship between virus challenge and antibody titre was represented by a tripartite curve which was essentially linear over moderate levels of virus input. Based on these findings, antibody titres were standardised against 100 TCID50 of challenge virus. However, lower virus inocula were found to detect minimum levels of antibody. Reproducibility of antibody titres between tests was high, with variation generally lying within one dilution step. The improved sensitivity of the technique allowed detection of NT-ABs in animals immunised with immune-stimulating complexes (ISCOMS) incorporating HIV antigens. Consistent levels of cross-reactivity between HIV strains was demonstrated, indicating the presence of distinct viral groups, from which dominant isolates may be chosen for use in vaccination studies.
