表达鸡新城疫病毒F、HN基因和传染性喉气管炎病毒gB基因的重组鸡痘病毒的构建及其特性研究

利用同源重组将新城疫病毒(NDV)的F和HN基因、传染性喉气管炎病毒(ILTV)的gB基因以及报告基因LacZ插入鸡痘病毒(FPV)的017株的复制非必需区,其中NDV的F、HN基因、ILTV的gB基因以及报告基因LacZ是在早晚期启动子LP2EP2的控制下,大肠杆菌报告基因LacZ在晚期启动子P11的控制下。经过10轮蓝斑纯化获得了包含了NDV的F和HN基因、ILTV的gB基因以及报告基因LacZ的重组鸡痘病毒,称为rFPV-F/HN/gB/LacZ。经PCR方法证明rFPV-F/HN/gB/LacZ基因组中含有NDV的F基因、HN基因和ILTVgB基因;间接免疫荧光试验和Western-blot试验表明NDV的F、HN蛋白和ILTVgB蛋白在rFPV-F/HN/gB/LacZ感染的CEF细胞中获得表达。与亲本毒相比,重组病毒在病毒的复制和致鸡胚成纤维细胞的病变方面无显著不同。这证明了在鸡痘病毒载体的一个复制非必需区可以同时插入多个禽类病原的多个外源基因,为制备多价基因工程疫苗奠定了基础。     

传染性喉气管炎病毒gB基因和新城疫病毒F基因在重组禽痘病毒中共表达

在重组禽痘病毒中表达多个禽类病原的主要免疫原基因是构建多价基因工程疫苗的前提,但相关研究很少。在表达传染性喉气管炎病毒(ILTV)gB基因重组禽痘病毒的转移载体的基础上,构建了含有ILTV gB基因和新城疫病毒(NDV)F基因的重组禽痘病毒转移载体pSY-gB-F,采用脂质体转染禽痘病毒感染的鸡胚成纤维(CEF)细胞后,通过蓝斑试验筛选出重组禽痘病毒(rFPv-gB-F),并进行了6轮蚀斑纯化。Western-blot试验和间接免疫荧光试验证明ILTV gB基因和NBVF基因在rFPV-gB-F感染的CEF细胞中获得表达。为传染性喉气管炎、新城疫与鸡痘活载体多价疫苗的研制奠定基础。     

鸡痘病毒复制非必需区的选择对重组鸡痘病毒免疫效力的影响

母源抗体的干扰是重组鸡痘病毒(FPV)活载体疫苗至今未能得到大规模推广应用的主要原因,而选择适当的FPV复制非必需区可能是解决这一问题的方法之一。根据已发表的美国致病株FPV的基因组设计两对引物,用PCR方法扩增FPV假定复制非必需区的两个侧翼区FPV1和FPV2 ,利用此假定复制非必需区构建FPV表达载体pP12LS及表达ZJ1株新城疫病毒(NDV)F基因的转移载体pP12LSF。pP12LSF与2 82E4株FPV共转染鸡胚成纤维细胞(CEF) ,经数轮蓝斑筛选得到纯化的重组病毒rFPV_FSC。重组FPV在CEF上连续传2 0代仍具有良好的遗传稳定性。对重组FPV进行免疫效力试验,在SPF鸡上,重组病毒rFPV_FSC和与之仅有复制非必需区差异的rFPV_FSB均能抵抗NDV强毒的攻击,提供10 0 %的保护。但在有母源抗体的商品鸡上,rFPV_FSC与rFPV_FSB的免疫效力却有显著差异,保护率分别为10 0 %和6 1 5 4 % ,rFPV_FSC的免疫效力与NDV常规油苗相当。试验结果表明,母源抗体对重组FPV的免疫效力有一定的影响,而选择合适的FPV复制非必需区是克服母源抗体并提高重组FPV免疫效力的有效策略之一

Recombinant fowlpox virus for in vitro gene delivery to pancreatic islet tissue

The feasibility of using avipox virus as a vector for gene delivery to islet tissue (adult islets and fetal proislets) was examined using a recombinant fowlpox virus (FPV) engineered to express the reporter gene LacZ (FPV-LacZ). The efficiency of in vitro transduction was dose-dependent and influenced by the donor species and maturation status of the islet tissue. Reporter gene expression in FPV-LacZ-transduced islet grafts was transient (3-7 days) in immunoincompetent nude mice and was not prolonged by in vivo treatment with anti-IFN-gamma mAb. In contrast, FPV-LacZ-transduced NIT-1 cells (a mouse islet beta cell line) expressed the LacZ gene beyond 18 days in vitro. Silencing of transgene expression therefore appeared to occur in vivo and was T cell- and IFN-gamma-independent. Isografts of FPV-LacZ-transduced islets in immunocompetent mice underwent immunological destruction by 7 days, suggesting that either FPV proteins or the reporter protein beta-galactosidase induced an adaptive immune response. Co-delivery of the rat bioactive immunoregulatory cytokine gene TGF-beta to islets using FPV-TGF-beta led to enhanced expression of TGF-beta mRNA in isografts but no long-term protection. Nevertheless, compared to control islet isografts at 5 days, FPV-transduced islets remained embedded in the clotted blood used to facilitate implantation. This phenomenon was TGF-beta transgene-independent, correlated with lack of cellular infiltration, and suggested that the FPV vector transformed the blood clot into a temporary immunological barrier.

Quantitative measurement of paramyxovirus fusion: differences in requirements of glycoproteins between simian virus 5 and human parainfluenza virus 3 or Newcastle disease virus.

To compare the requirements for paramyxovirus-mediated cell fusion, the fusion (F) and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) glycoproteins of simian virus 5 (SV5), human parainfluenza virus 3 (HPIV-3), and Newcastle disease virus (NDV) were expressed individually or coexpressed in either homologous or heterologous combinations in CV-1 or HeLa-T4 cells, using the vaccinia virus-T7 polymerase transient expression system. The contribution of individual glycoproteins in virus-induced membrane fusion was examined by using a quantitative assay for lipid mixing based on the relief of self-quenching (dequenching) of fluorescence of the lipid probe octadecyl rhodamine (R18) and a quantitative assay for content mixing based on the cytoplasmic activation of a reporter gene, beta-galactosidase. In these assays, expression of the individual F glycoproteins did not induce significant levels of cell fusion and no cell fusion was observed in experiments when cells individually expressing homologous F or HN proteins were mixed. However, coexpression of homologous F and HN glycoproteins resulted in extensive cell fusion. The kinetics of fusion were found to be very similar for all three paramyxoviruses studied. With NDV and HPIV-3, no cell fusion was detected when F proteins were coexpressed with heterologous HN proteins or influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA). In contrast, SV5 F protein exhibited a considerable degree of fusion activity when coexpressed with either NDV or HPIV-3 HN or with influenza virus HA, although the kinetics of fusion were two- to threefold higher when the homologous SV5 F and HN proteins were coexpressed. Thus, these data indicate that among the paramyxoviruses tested, SV5 has different requirements for cell fusion.     

置换HN基因对新城疫病毒LaSota株致病力的影响

[目的]新城疫病毒的血凝素.神经氨酸酶(HN)和融合蛋白(F)在病毒装配、出芽、释放及侵入宿主细胞的过程中发挥关键作用,但HN对病毒致病力的影响程度尚不完全清楚.[方法]为探讨这一问题,本研究以中等毒力毒株Mukteswar的HN基因替换我国广泛应用的LaSota疫苗株HN基因,通过反向遗传操作技术拯救出嵌合病毒(rL-MuHN).[结果]rL-MuHN红细胞吸附能力较亲本株rLaSota无显著升高,具有相似的细胞融合活性;嵌合病毒ICPI由rLaSota株的0.36降为0,MDT≥90,IVPI=0与rLaSota株相同,保持典型低致病力缓发型特点不变.进一步以Mukteswar株F基因替换rL-MuHN的F基因,拯救出F和HN双基因替换嵌合病毒rL-MuFHN,尽管该病毒的细胞融合能力显著提高,但其MDT、ICPI和IVPI分别为98 h,0.59和0,显示F和HN双基因替换仍未能使嵌合新城疫病毒rL-MuFHN的致病力达到中等毒力毒株Mukteswar(MDT、ICPI及IVPI分别为46 h、1.32和0.64)的水平.[结论]试验结果表明,F及HN囊膜蛋白基因之外的病毒基因组骨架背景对病毒的致病性同样具有重要的决定性意义,不同HN蛋白对嵌合病毒的致病能力的影响不同,与供体毒株毒力无关;以流行野毒株HN替代rLaSota疫苗株构建抗原针对性更强的弱毒疫苗株存在技术可行性.

新城疫病毒HN和F基因遗传变异相关性的研究

选取国内1999~2005年发生的NDV毒株,经CEF蚀斑纯化和SPF鸡胚增殖,对其融合蛋白(F)和血凝素-神经氨酸酶(HN)基因分别进行克隆测序,结合在GenBank中发表的具有F和HN基因的NDV序列,利用DNAStar软件,对其不同毒株的F或HN基因片段和全长、F和HN基因全长分别进行遗传变异的研究,利用统计学软件SPSS8.0进行同源性相关分析。结果表明:不同NDV毒株F或HN基因片段与其全长之间,核甘酸r≥0.973,氨基酸:0.911≤r≤0.968,遗传变异高度相关,但F与HN基因全长之间核甘酸的遗传变异呈现弱相关(r=0.312)。国内NDV野毒株之间HN核甘酸高度同源(同源率97%以上),而与La Sota同源率仅为79.2%~80.7%,且显示出明显的地域性。     

The hemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein of Newcastle disease virus determines tropism and virulence

The hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) protein of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) plays a crucial role in the process of infection. However, the exact contribution of the HN gene to NDV pathogenesis is not known. In this study, the role of the HN gene in NDV virulence was examined. By use of reverse genetics procedures, the HN genes of a virulent recombinant NDV strain, rBeaudette C (rBC), and an avirulent recombinant NDV strain, rLaSota, were exchanged. The hemadsorption and neuraminidase activities of the chimeric viruses showed significant differences from those of their parental strains, but heterotypic F and HN pairs were equally effective in fusion promotion. The tissue tropism of the viruses was shown to be dependent on the origin of the HN protein. The chimeric virus with the HN protein derived from the virulent virus exhibited a tissue predilection similar to that of the virulent virus, and vice versa. The chimeric viruses with reciprocal HN proteins either gained or lost virulence, as determined by a standard intracerebral pathogenicity index test of chickens and by the mean death time in chicken embryos (a measure devised to classify these viruses), indicating that virulence is a function of the amino acid differences in the HN protein. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the virulence of NDV is multigenic and that the cleavability of F protein alone does not determine the virulence of a strain.     

中国禽源新城疫病毒(NDV)流行株F和HN基因的遗传演化和变异频率

【目的】新城疫(ND)是中国流行最严重的疫病之一,对家禽业可造成巨大的经济损失,疫苗防控是控制ND的重要措施。新城疫病毒(NDV)流行株的遗传演化一直是研究NDV的焦点。本文利用分子信息学手段,通过比较近20年间NDV流行株不同基因型F和HN基因的分子特征和遗传变异频率,解析免疫压力下NDV的演化规律。【方法】利用Lasergene 7.1和MEGA5.1软件,选取本实验室89株NDV分离株,结合从Gen Bank下载的364株NDV流行株以及15株NDV经典毒株的基因序列,对其进行系统发育、分子特征和替代频率分析。【结果】系统发育表明,NDV已经演化为15个基因型。一致性比较显示,NDV流行株相同基因型之间核苷酸(氨基酸)高度同源,而不同基因型之间差异较大且存在明显的氨基酸变异积累。NDV基因型的分布与时间、地域密切相关,VII d亚型为中国NDV优势流行株。为评估NDV变异的频率,以Go/GD/QY/1997株(中国较早发生的基因VII亚型)为参照,1997-2015年间NDV的F/HN基因的年平均核苷酸(氨基酸)替代率为2.31×10~(-3)(2.26×10~(-3))/3.37×10~(-3)(2.35×10~(-3))。其中,1997-2001年(未使用基因VII型疫苗)F/HN基因核苷酸年平均替代率为4.72×10~(-3)/8.28×10~(-3);2002-2015年(疫苗使用后)为1.6×10~(-3)/1.84×10~(-3),显示出基因VII型疫苗在控制NDV变异速度方面具有明显的效果。【结论】生物信息学分析证实:研制出与NDV流行毒株相匹配的新型疫苗是控制当前NDV变异的关键。

Fowlpox virus recombinants expressing the envelope glycoprotein of an avian reticuloendotheliosis retrovirus induce neutralizing antibodies and reduce viremia in chickens.

Eight stable fowlpox virus (FPV) recombinants which express the envelope glycoprotein of the spleen necrosis virus (SNV) strain of reticuloendotheliosis virus (REV), an avian retrovirus, were constructed. These recombinants differ in the genomic location of the inserted genes, in the orientation of the insert relative to flanking viral sequences, and in the promoter used to drive expression of the env gene. Of these variables, promoter strength seems to be the most crucial. The P7.5 promoter of vaccinia virus, which is commonly used in the construction of both vaccinia virus and FPV recombinants, resulted in lower levels of expression of the envelope antigen in infected chicken cells compared with a strong synthetic promoter, as determined by immunofluorescence and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Two peptides encoded by the env gene, the 21-kDa transmembrane peptide and a 62-kDa precursor, were detected by immunoprecipitation of labeled proteins from cells infected with recombinant FPVs, using monoclonal antibodies against REV. These peptides comigrated with those precipitated from REV-infected cells. One of the recombinants (f29R-SNenv) was used for vaccination of 1-day-old chickens. Vaccinated chicks developed neutralizing antibodies to SNV more rapidly than did unvaccinated controls following SNV challenge and were protected against both viremia and the SNV-induced runting syndrome.     

Mutational analysis of the proteolytic cleavage site of glycoprotein B (gB) of Marek''s disease virus

The Marek's disease virus (MDV) glycoprotein B (gB) precursor, gp100, is proteolytically cleaved into two disulfide-linked subunits, gp60 and gp49. In the gB homologs of most other herpesviruses, a tetrapeptide, Arg-Xaa-Arg-Arg, is immediately upstream from the predicted cleavage site. We have investigated the specificity of the proteolytic cleavage in gplOO by introducing mutations within its predicted cleavage site (Arg-Leu-Arg-Arg) and expressed these mutants in recombinant fowlpox virus (FPV). The results show that all three Arg residues at the predicted cleavage site play an important role in the specific proteolytic cleavage of gp100. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the cleavage of gplOO is not necessary for transport of gB to the cell surface.     

Triggering of the newcastle disease virus fusion protein by a chimeric attachment protein that binds to Nipah virus receptors

The fusion (F) proteins of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) and Nipah virus (NiV) are both triggered by binding to receptors, mediated in both viruses by a second protein, the attachment protein. However, the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) attachment protein of NDV recognizes sialic acid receptors, whereas the NiV G attachment protein recognizes ephrinB2/B3 as receptors. Chimeric proteins composed of domains from the two attachment proteins have been evaluated for fusion-promoting activity with each F protein. Chimeras having NiV G-derived globular domains and NDV HN-derived stalks, transmembranes, and cytoplasmic tails are efficiently expressed, bind ephrinB2, and trigger NDV F to promote fusion in Vero cells. Thus, the NDV F protein can be triggered by binding to the NiV receptor, indicating that an aspect of the triggering cascade induced by the binding of HN to sialic acid is conserved in the binding of NiV G to ephrinB2. However, the fusion cascade for triggering NiV F by the G protein and that of triggering NDV F by the chimeras can be distinguished by differential exposure of a receptor-induced conformational epitope. The enhanced exposure of this epitope marks the triggering of NiV F by NiV G but not the triggering of NDV F by the chimeras. Thus, the triggering cascade for NiV G-F fusion may be more complex than that of NDV HN and F. This is consistent with the finding that reciprocal chimeras having NDV HN-derived heads and NiV G-derived stalks, transmembranes, and tails do not trigger either F protein for fusion, despite efficient cell surface expression and receptor binding.     

Nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequence analysis of the fusion protein and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase protein genes among Newcastle disease virus isolates. Phylogenetic relationships among the Paramyxovirinae based on attachment glycoprotein sequences

Highly virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolates are List A pathogens for commercial poultry, and reports of their isolation among member nations must be made to the Office of International Epizootes (OIE). The virus is classified as a member of the order Mononegavirales in the family Paramyxoviridae of the subfamily Paramyxovirinae. Two interactive surface glycoproteins, the fusion (F) and hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) proteins, play essential roles in NDV attachment and fusion of cells during infection. Antibodies to the F or HN proteins are capable of virus neutralization; however, no full-length sequences are available for these genes from recently obtained virulent isolates. Therefore, nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences of the F and HN protein genes from 16 NDV isolates representing highly virulent viruses from worldwide sources were obtained for comparison to older virulent isolates and vaccine strains. The F protein amino acid sequence was relatively conserved among isolates maintaining potential glycosylation sites and C residues for disulfide bonds. A dibasic amino acid motif was present at the cleavage site among more virulent isolates, while the low virulence viruses did not have this sequence. However, a Eurasian collared dove virus had a K114Q substitution at the F cleavage site unique among NDV isolates. The HN protein among NDV isolates maintained predicted catalytic and active site residues necessary for neuraminidase activity and hemagglutination. Length of the HN for the Eurasian collared dove isolate and a previously reported heat resistant virulent isolate were longer relative to other more recent virulent isolates. Phylogenetically NDV isolates separated into four groups with more recent virulent isolates forming a diverse branch, while all the avian paramyxoviruses formed their own clade distinct from other members of the Paramyxoviridae.
