Abstract

CBA mice were immunized parenterally with the NIBRG-14 vaccine strain of A/H5N1 influenza virus, and after 2 weeks they were infected with a high dose of the live IDCDC-RG2 strain of the A/H5N1 influenza virus. The course of the infection was severe and accompanied by high mortality. The injection of antihistamines (a mixtures of H1 and H2 histamine receptors blockers), at the time of infection, resulted in a 10% reduction in mortality (p<0.05). Data indicate that the severe course of influenza infection in vaccinated animals at least partially depends on the mast cells and histamine they release presumably upon activation by IgG antibodies and the virus.
