摘要
目的进一步认识丙型肝炎病毒(henatitis C virus, HCV)包膜糖蛋白高变区1(hynernarible re-gion 1,HVR1)序列的抗原表位。方法设计并台成HCV-BJ株(1b型)HVR1 390-411序列共22个氨基酸的线性表位多肽(LP)及多抗原肽(MAP),并比较与HCV感染者血清中抗HVR1的反应性。结果抗MAP的A450为0.461±0.590,抗LP为0.145±0.166,两者差异有非常显著性(P<0.0001),而且两者有较好的关联性(P< 0001);59份抗HCV阳性血清中,抗LP及抗MAP的阳性检出率分别为29%和58%;MAP可结合HCV 1b型以外其它基因型HCV感染者血清中相应的抗体。结论MAP与天然抗体结合的反应原性明显高于LP,且存在一定的交叉反应性;合成合HCV HVR1序列的MAP可能成为分析相应区段构型抗原表位和设计HCV分子疫苗一条可行的途径。
Objective To get more new information about the antigen epitopes of the hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) within the putative envelope glycoprotein of hepatitis C virus(HCV). Methods We designed and synthesized linear epitope peptides(LP) and multiple antigen peptide(MAP, symmetric & branches) derived from 22 amino acids (position 390-4llaa) of HCV-BJ(HCV fo genotype) HVRI. We compared the binding-reactivity of LP with MAP to native antiHVRI antibody in HCV-infected patients sera. In addition, the HCV genotype was tested to assess the prevalence of antiHVRI by cleaving PCR products with restriction enzyme. Results (l)There was a s;gnificant difference(p < 0.000 l) of mean A450 between anti-MAP (x±s =0.461±0.590) and anti-LP (x± s =0. 145 ± 0. 166), and the immunoreactivity of MAP and LP to the native antibody had a significant association (P < 0.001). (2)The rate of anti-LP and anti-MAP detection in 59 anti-HCV2.0 positive sera was 29% and 58% respectively. (3)The binding of MAP to antibody protein in sera from patients infected with other genotypes besides HCV fo genotype was observed. Conclusion The binding-reactivity of MAP to native antibody was obviously higher than that of LP, and there is a cross--reaction between them.lt was possible to analyse conformational antigen epitopes in the region and develop HCV molecular vaccine by synthesizing MAP corresponding to HCV HVRI sequences.
