Delayed-type hypersensitivity and in vitro lymphocyte response in guinea pigs immunized with a live varicella vaccine.
The relation of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) assessed by the Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV) skin test and lymphocyte transformation (LTF) with VZV antigen was investigated in guinea pigs immunized with live varicella vaccine virus, or heat-inactivated vaccine virus. Guinea pigs immunized with live varicella vaccine virus showed positive DTH and LTF responses to viral antigen as well as a neutralizing (NT) antibody response, while those immunized with heat-inactivated vaccine virus showed only an NT antibody response of the same degree as that to live vaccine virus. These results show the reliability of the skin test in assessing cell-mediated immunity (CMI) to VZV and the advantage of the live varicella vaccine over the inactivated one in immunizing guinea pigs.
