Japanese Encephalitis Virus(JEV) can be detected conveniently by the use of biotinylated cDNA probe. To prepare biotinylated probe aminoallyl dUTP was first synthesized chemically to reverse transcribe the virial RNA. The allylamine-labeled cDNA was then converted to the biotin-cDNA by the reaction with an activated biotin ester, NHS-ACA-biotin. The JEV genomic RNA was hybridized to the biotinylated cDNA probe on nitrocellulose filter and visualized colorimetrically by streptavidin complexes with alkaline phosphatase polymer. Sensitivity of the detection system was determined by estimating the amount of the JEV genomic RNA through comparison with signals generated from the biotinylated and $^{32/P}$ -labeled probes. It was found that the biotin probe was as sensitive as $^{32/P}$ -cDNA probe which can detect 50pgs of the target RNA.

세계보건기구 (WHO)가 백신 생산에 권장하고 있는 표준세포 주인 Vero 세포에 약독화 일본뇌염바이러스인 SA14-14-2 ( (PDK)를 연속 계대배양을 통해 적응(adaptation)시켜, tIter가 $10^7$pfu/mL을 넘는 SA-14-14-2(Vero)을 분리하였다 바이러스 배양 최적온도는 $35^{\circ}C$이며, T -flask에서 배양된 바이러스의 최고 tIter는 감염 후 4일째에 $4\times10^7$ pfu/mL로 관찰되었다. 또한 무혈청배지에서도 바이러스 증식이 활발하여 2% 혈청이 보충된 정우와 거의 비슷한 바이라스 tIter를 보였다. 바이러스 대량 배양을 위해 roller bottle culture와 미 립 담체 플 이용한 spinner flask culture 가능성에 대하여 고찰하였다 바이러스 감염을 위한 미립담체에서의 Vera cell monolayer는 초기 세포 농도 $4\times10$ cells/mL로 접종하여 50 rpm에서 7일간 배양하여 얻을 수 있었다. 바이러스의 roller bottle 배양이 spinner flask 배양보다 바이러스 tIter변에서 2배 내지 3배 높 았고, $10^7$pfu/mL을 넘는 배양 기간도 하루 죄었다. 하지만 두 배양 방법 모두 T -flask 배양에서와 같이 무혈청 배지를 사용 하여도 바이라스 증식이 활발했고, 최고조의 tIter를 보이는 배 양기간은 감염 후 2일째로써 T -flask 배양에서 보다 2일 빨랐다. Roller bottle culture의 경우, 감염 후 3일부터 17일까지 2 일 간격으로 배양액을 무혈청 EMEM으로 100% 교체하면서 매 양을 지속한 결과 3일부터 9일까지 $10^7$pfu/mL을 념는 tIter가 유지되는 것이 확인되어 바이러스의 multi-harvest가 가능한 것 로 고찰되었다. 상기의 결과는 생산성 면에서 매우 유리한 결 과로 제품의 생산 단가플 낮추고 작업 노력을 절감하는 기대 효 과가 클 것으로 예측된다.

일본뇌염바이러스(Japanese encephalitis virus, JEV) Nakayama strain을 초기 multiplicity of infection 5.0으로 Vero세포에 감염하여 1년 이상 안정적으로 바이러스를 방출하는 지속감염(persistently-infected)세포주를 확립하였다. 지속감염 세포에서 지속적으로 방출되는 총 11 개의 Plaque 형태 변이바이러스(morphology mutants)클론을 확보하였다. 분리된 변이바이러스의 복제효율을 분석한 결과 생물학적 표현형과 복제효율은 유의하게 상관하였다. 변이바이러스 RNA 게놈 양 말단의 non-coding region 및 envelop 단백질의 ORF에서는 유의한 염기서열 변화가 관찰되지 않아 JEV 약독화에 새로운 인자가 추가로 관여할 가능성을 제시하였다. 변이바이러스에 감염된 신선한 Vero세포는 wild-type JEV의 일반적 감염성상과 다르게 대다수의 세포가 유의할 만한 세포병변현상을 나타내지 않았다. 감염된 Vero세포에서 wild-type JEV 및 large plaque을 형성하는 변이바이러스의 경우 mRNA와 함께 Bcl-2의 발현은 모두 유의하게 감소하였으며 p53은 뚜렷하게 증가하였다. 반면 small plaque을 형성하는 변이바이러스의 감염세포에서는 Bcl-2와 p53 모두 유의한 변화를 볼 수 없었다. 이상의 결과들과 함께, 감염된 Vero세포의 internucleosomal DNA fragmentation과DNA profile의 유형분석에 따르면 궁극적 인 세포병변효과의 변화는 변이바이러스의 복제효율과 더불어 p53에 비의존적인 apoptosis 수위의 전반적인 감소에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다.

Because of the cases of Japanese Encephalitis(J.E.) were reported every year in Korea. We, Dong-A Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., produced J.E. virus vaccine, with lower price, since 1970 in order to prevent ourselves from being infected by the disease. And inoculated the J.E. virus vaccine for the children with a great success. We are going to report several questions which brought about in producing the J.E. virus vaccine by alcohol precipitation, protamine sulfate treatment method. The results obtained were as folows ; 1) In process treated with 40% alcohol, we used to ethanol made in Germany, but it was too expensive to use it. As the result which we had studied about it, we were satisfied with J.E. virus vaccine which produced with alcohol made in Korea, and then, we treated with accurate specific gravity of 40% ethanol for the precipitation of the virus. And also, we knew that it was the best method to be treated it for 3hrs, $13^{\circ}C$. 2) When we treated with protamine sulfate (0.025mg/ml), we acquired the highest potent titer, and suited into purpose for the nitrogen concentration. 3) The filtration of the purified J.E. virus vaccine, in case of millipore filter paper of large pore size was not suitable for the sterility. Therefore the pore size less than 0.8.$\mu$ (AA filter paper) in millipore filter paper was very suitable. But it seemed to be important subhects that the smaller was the pore size, the lower was the potent titer.

Japanese encephalitis is the leading cause of viral encephalitis in Asia, where it accounts for up to 50,000 cases. Approximately 20% of affected patients die, and 30-50% of survivors have significant neurological sequelae. Inactivated mouse-brain derived Japanese encephalitis vaccines has been effectively implemented to control the disease effectively in Korea and several other Asian countries. However, the vaccine is expensive and difficult to produce, requires multiple doses, and has been associated with hypersensitivity reactions and rare adverse neurologicale events. The live-attenuated SA14-14-2 vaccine derived from primary hamster kidney (PHK) cells was developed in China and has been used there since 1988. Outside China, it has been licensed and used in Korea and several other Asian countries. This vaccine is effective and inexpensive. However, the lack of precedence for using a PHK cell substrate in a live-attenuated vaccine is a special issue of concern. The WHO working group has recommended additional safety studies in selected high-risk groups, as well as ongoing post-marketing studies to ensure long-term safety. Recently, a new inactivated vaccine and live-attenuated chimeric vaccine have been developed from vero cells. With this background, this article summarized the current status of Japanese encephalitis vaccination worldwide and in Korea.

The following facts have been identified as a result of epidemiological trend and characteristic of Japanese Encephalitis in Korea for the last 20 years. First: The Epidemiological period which was ten-year and three-year in the past has been disappeared following the start of immunization program at 1970. Second: The Incidence rate was much higher in the south and West areas than northeast area of Korea. City and Province with the highest incidence rate was Chungcheong Nam Province and Cholla Buk Province. Third: Regardless of scope of prevalence, the main season that 90 percent of total incidence occurrs in one month from mid-August through mid-September. Fourth: The number of case by age was that 80 percent of total patients is children aged $3{\sim}15$. Recently there is an increase in the number of patients who are elderly people. Fifth: The study on the ecological conditions of mosquito including wintering and effectiveness of immunization for Japanese Encephalitis and duration on antibody should be done. Sixth: There has been no case of Japanese Encephalitis for the last three years since 1984 mainly due to disinfecting to eradicate mosquitos, immunization for vulnerable group of people aged $3{\sim}15$, individual precaution not to be bitten by mosquito, improvement of environment sanitation. While there has been no case of Japanese Encephalitis during last three years, there is possibility that Japanese Encephalitis becomes prevalent again anytime since its virus has been isolated continuously from the natural reservoirs.

Japanese encephalitis has been prevalent for long time in the Far East and many patients have been reported in both South East and Mid-West Asia recently. Recently, vaccine was used in prevention of this viral disease of man which was derived from formalin inactivated virus inoculated into mouse brain, but live attenuated active vaccine for human is not developed yet. Author inoculated Japanese encephalitis virus into several cell culture strains for development of live attenuated encephalitis virus strain and the results were as follows: 1. Japanese encephalitis virus was inactivated rapidly in cell free medium at $36^{\circ}C$ and totally inactivated by 72 hours. 2. In growth curve of Japanese encephalitis virus in HeLa cell cultures, maximal multiplication of the virus was occured at 4th day and virus multiplication was continued for at least 12 days. 3. After succeeding passage of the virus in HeLa cell cultures and human esophagus epithelial cell cultures, infectivity of virus for mice was disappeared from 2nd passage in HeLa cell cultures and 3rd passage in esophagus epithelial cell cultures. 4. In inoculation to monkey kidney epithelial cells and chick embryo cell cultures, infectivity of the virus for mice was continued after 10th passages.

Since the report in 1946 on the first isolation of Japanese encephalitis virus in Korea, the disease is known to occur every year and has occasionally spread in epidemic proportion among human populations. Because of its public health importance, it was deemed highly desirable to gain specific information as to natural history of the disease in Korea if we are to accomplish our ultimate objective of controling the disease in Korea. There still remain, however, unknown factors as to the ecology of Japanese encephalitis virus in Korea. This paper presents the results of serologic study on Korean cattle, hog and horse by means of hemagglutination inhibition (H.I.) test. The serum specimens were collected from Korean cattle, hog and horse their estimated ages being 3 to 9 years, 6 to 24 months and 2 to 14 years respectively, by jugular puncture; in Seoul and Kyung-Ki are a from the first part of May to November last, 1968. The strain used was designated by M 5/596. The methods of H.I. test employed in this study were essentially simillar to those employed by Clark and Fred. The results obtained summarized as follows; 1. Of samples of cattle sera tested, 183 (98%) was found to be positive, H.I. antibodies showing the highest proportion, on September. The lowest proportion showed 81 (68%) of 117 samples, on June. 2. One hundred and ninety-five and 114 swine serum samples tested were all of positive in both on September and October respectively. The lowest proportion showed 92 (29%) of 314 on June too. 3. Ninety (99%) of 91 equine serum samples tested contained demonstrable H.I. antibodies the highest proportion, on August. The lowest proportion was 19 (27%) of 70 samples on June. 4. Implications of these findings in the ecology of Japanese encephalitis Seoul and Kyung-Ki area were discussed.
