Abstract

      Human papillomavirus (HPV) is implicated in the majority of cervical cancer cases, which vaccination being a crucial method for preventing infection. The pseudovirion-based neutralization assay (PBNA) has been employed to determine the neutralizing antibody levels in HPV-vaccine immunized recipients. This article introduced the product of HPV-pseudovirion serotype 16 (HPV-16 pseudovirion), a technique transferred from the protocol established by the National Institutes for Food and Drug Control (NIFDC), China. Results following the transfection of p16sheLL and pcDNA3.1 eGFP plasmids into 293FT cell lines showed the production of pseudovirion containing the eGFP protein within 48 hours, with infectivity observed on the 293FT cell line. Fluoresced cells were counted using ELIPOT. The calculated pseudovirion titer, based on 300 eGPF-positive cells per 0.1 milliliter, was 4.37, with a dilution factor of 11,771 for PBNA. Additionally, the pseudovirion titer examined through TCID50 per 0.1 milliliter was 6.67, with a dilution factor of 11,585 for PBNA. Overall, the adopted method successfully produced HPV-16 pseudovirion, serving as a prototype for producing other HPV-pseudovirion serotypes and facilitating their transfer to relevant agencies to support the HPV vaccination campaign
