Development of a rapid neutralization testing system for Rhinovirus C15 based on the enzyme-linked immunospot assay.

ABSTRACT: Human Rhinoviruses (RVs) are dominant pathogens causing a wide range of respiratory tract diseases, posing a huge threat to public health worldwide. Viruses belonging to the RV-C species are more likely to cause severe illnesses and are strongly associated with asthma onset or exacerbations than RV-A or RV-B. Rapid and sensitive detection of neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against RV-C can promote the development of vaccines and antiviral drugs and help in the diagnosis of viral infection. In this study, a rapid neutralization testing system for RV-C15, based on an enzyme-linked immunospot assay (Nt-ELISPOT) was developed. A monoclonal antibody (MAb), named 9F9, with high binding efficacy for RV-C15 conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP), was used to detect RV-C15-infected cells at a co
