摘要

AIM: To develop hepatitis C virus (HCV) vaccine using HBcAg as the immuno-carrier to express HCV T epitope and to investigate its immunogenicity in mice. METHODS: We constructed the plasmid pTrc-core(NheI) using gene engineering technique, constructed the pcDNA3.1-core(NheI)-GFP plasmid with GFP as the reporter gene, and transfected them into Hela cells. The expression of GFP was observed under confocal microscopy and the feasibility of using HBcAg as an immuno-carrier vaccine was studied. pTrc-core gene with a synthetic T epitope antigen gene of HCV (35-44aa) was fused and expressed in the plasmid pTrc-core-HCV (T). For the fusion of the HBcAg-T protein, sucrose, density gradient centrifugation was used, and its molecular weight and purity were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Then balb/c mice were immunized by the plasmid with the HBcAg (expressed by pTrc-core) protein as control. The tumor regression potential was investigated in mice and evaluated at appropriate time. After three times of immunization, the peripheral blood and spleen of vaccinated mice were collected. HBcAb was detected by ELISA, and nonspecific T lymphocyte proliferation and response of splenocytes were respectively examined by MTT assay. T cell subset of blood and spleen were detected by FACS. RESULTS: GFP was successfully expressed. Tumor regression trial showed that no tumor formation was found in the group receiving immunization, while tumor xenograft progression was not changed in the control group. Strong nonspecific lymphocyte proliferation response was induced. FACS also showed that the ratio of CD8(+) T cells in the experimental group was higher than the controls, but the serum HBcAb in experimental group was similar to the control. CONCLUSION: HBcAg can be used as an immuno-carrier of vaccine, the fusion of HBcAg-T protein could induce stronger cellular immune responses and it might be a candidate for therapeutic vaccines specific for HCV.
