Molecular immunophenotyping of lungs and spleens in naive and vaccinated chickens early after pulmonary avian influenza A (H9N2) virus infection

ABSTRACT: In a respiratory-infection-model with the avian influenza A H9N2 virus, lung and splenic immune reactions in chickens were studied using a 5K chicken immuno-microarray. Groups of chickens were either mock-immunized (referred to as non-immune), vaccinated with inactivated viral antigen only (immune) or with viral antigen in a water-in-oil (W/O) immunopotentiator (immune potentiated). Three weeks after vaccination all animals were given a respiratory infection. Samples were studied at days 1 and 5 post-infection.
