湖北咸宁地区乙型肝炎病毒基因型的调查

乙型肝炎病毒(Hepatitis B virus,HBV)是引起急性和慢性肝炎的最主要的病原[1].目前根据HBsAg的共同抗原决定簇"α"和两对相互排斥的抗原决定簇将HBV分为ayw1,ayw2,ayw3,ayw4,ayr,adw2,adw2,adw4,adrq+和adrq- 9种不同的血清学亚型,1988年Okamoto[2]等根据HBV基因组核苷酸的差异又提出了HBV基因型的概念,并以全基因组核苷酸差异≥8%,定为基因型分型标准.

合成乙型肝炎表面抗原肽段的结构与抗原性

本文对合成的乙型肝炎表面抗原肽段的结构与抗原性进行了研究。通过对三种亚型共9个合成肽段的抗原性测定和结构分析,我们证实了在乙型肝炎表面抗原(HBsAg)氨基酸顺序的122-137区域存在着共同决定簇“a”,且半胱氨酸残基对抗原性有很大的影响。合成的16肽P_(122-137)的两个半胱氨酸残基用叔丁基保护时,其抗原性几乎检测不到,一旦去掉保护基并氧化成分子内S—S键后,抗原性明显增加。比较各种亚型肽段的抗原性测定结果,我们发现亚型决定簇d(或y)的位置可能在122—132之间。另外我们发现P_(adw)122—132的抗原性要比P_(adr)122-137的抗原性强,结构分析结果表明adw型中的Asn_(132)可能对此有较大的贡献。

关于两种群互相作用的Kolmogorov模型 x=xF_1(x,y), y=yF_2(x,y),文〔1〕根据生态意义对F_1、F_2给出较多限制条件下作过研究,由于现实中总结出的模型归结到F_1、F_2为x和y的多项式的形式不少〔2,3〕,本文讨论一类Kolmogorov系统x=x(a_0+a_1x-a_3x~2+a_2y+a_4xy),y=y(x-1) (1)极限环的存在性和唯一性,其中x和y分别表示两种群的密度,参数a_0>o,a_3>o,a_1、a_2、a_4不定号,它们各表示一定的生态意义,随不同的取值范围而反映两种群的不同作用〔1〕。     

2013～2014年度中国H3N2亚型流感病毒病原学特征分析

为分析2013~2014流感监测年度中国大陆地区H3N2亚型流感病毒的抗原性和基因变异情况,本文选择了本监测年度中国分离的H3N2亚型流感病毒,利用标准雪貂抗血清进行抗原性分析,利用Sanger测序法进行病毒基因测序,采用邻位相临法(Neighbor-Joining,N-J)方法进行种系进化分析,分析我国H3N2亚型流感病毒的变异情况,进一步比较其与疫苗株的匹配性。抗原分析显示,本监测年度H3N2亚型流感病毒大部分为疫苗株A/Victoria/361/2011细胞株的类似株(99.6%),但以A/Texas/50/2012鸡胚株为参考抗原,只有15.1%为类似株,仅有11.9%与中国流行株的鸡胚分离株A/Shanghai-Changning/1507/2012抗原性类似。HA基因特性分析显示我国毒株均位于同一大分支,NA基因没有发现与耐药性相关的氨基酸位点突变。总之,2013~2014流感监测年度我国H3N2亚型流感病毒在流行过程中未发生明显变异,但病毒在鸡胚中传代会导致关键氨基酸位点变异。应及时分析并发现我国病毒的抗原性和基因特性变异情况,推选出更适合我国的疫苗株。     

Antigenic structure of hepatitis B surface antigen: identification of the "d" subtype determinant by chemical modification and use of monoclonal antibodies

Hepatitis B surface antigens (HBsAg) of both the adw and ayw subtypes were reductively methylated with formaldehyde in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. The effect on antigenicity was determined by radioimmunoassay with monoclonal antibodies specific for seven different antigenic determinants. The reaction was shown to eliminate specifically the "d" antigenic activity of HBsAg/adw and to have no effect on HBsAg/ayw. Moreover, the reaction had only a slight affect on HBsAg/adw at one of the "a" antigenic determinants. The sites of modification were determined and the extent of modification of each site was compared to the loss of "d" antigenic activity. These studies demonstrated that the loss of "d" activity was due to the modification of lysine 122 in HBsAg/adw, and that although the amino terminus and lysine residues 141 and 160 of both HBsAg/adw and HBsAg/ayw are reactive, their modification does not alter any measurable antigenic activity.     

Allelic subtypic determinants of hepatitis B surface antigen (i and t) that are distinct from d/y or w/r.

A monoclonal antibody (I-18) was raised against an enneapeptide representing amino acids 125 to 133 of the product of the S gene of hepatitis B virus DNA [S(125-133) segment] with a sequence of Thr-Ile-126-Pro-Ala-Gln-Gly-Thr-Ser-Met. Another monoclonal antibody (T-7) was raised against an S(125-133) segment in which Ile-126 was replaced by Thr-126. In a panel of 16 samples of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) with known S gene sequences, I-18 reacted with 5 with Ile-126. T-7 reacted with 10 HBsAg samples with Thr-126; it did not, however, react with the remaining one of subtype ayw with Thr-126 flanked by Met-125 and Thr-127. The two allelic subtypic determinants, specified by Ile-126 and Thr-126 and distinct from d/y or w/r, were named i and t after isoleucine and threonine, which regulate them. They were expressed in a mutually exclusive fashion in 216 (83%) of 260 HBsAg samples from asymptomatic carriers. They were not detected in 36 (14%) samples; the failure to detect an i or t determinant was particularly common in HBsAg samples of subtype ayw (26 [79%] of 33). A part of the S gene sequence was determined for eight HBsAg samples without a detectable i or t determinant. They had an Ile-126 or Thr-126 residue that was flanked by Thr-127, not the Pro-127 commonly possessed by HBsAg samples displaying an i or t determinant. Expression of the i/t allele, therefore, would require Pro-127. In eight (3%) of the samples, both i and t determinants were detected; the presence of i and t on the selfsame HBsAg particles was verified by sandwiching the particles between I-18 and T-7. A point mutation from thymine to cytosine at nucleotide 377 in the S gene, contributing different second letters to codon 126 (ATT for Ile and ACT for Thr), would have been responsible for the assembly of HBsAg particles with both i and t determinants by means of phenotypic mixing.     

Synthetic oligopeptides bearing a common or subtypic determinant of hepatitis B surface antigen.

Two determinants of hepatitis B surface Ag (HBsAg), identified by mAb raised against polypeptide components, were characterized immunochemically. One was expressed on HBsAg irrespective of the four major subtypes, i.e., adw, adr, ayw, and ayr, whereas the other was subtypic but not identical to any of d, y, w, and r determinants. The common determinant was generated by a synthetic pentadecapeptide with a sequence of Thr-Thr-Ser-Thr-Gly-Pro-Cys-Lys-Thr-Cys-Thr-Ile-Pro-Ala-Gln representing amino acids 115-129 of the S gene product, and detected invariably in 366 HBsAg samples in sera from asymptomatic carriers in Japan. The activity of the S gene product, as well as the peptide (115-129), to bind with the mAb was not affected by alkylation alone, but was completely lost after reductive alkylation. The antigenic activity was lost when the S gene product was severed between Lys122 and Thr123 by trypsin. A microconformation maintained by the -Cys121-Cys124 bond, therefore, would be required for the common determinant. The other mAb identified an epitope of HBsAg that was mimicked by a synthetic tetradecapeptide with a sequence of Thr-Cys-Thr-Ile-Pro-Ala-Gln-Gly-Thr-Ser-Met-Phe-Pro-Ser, representing amino acids 123-136 of the S gene product. Among 16 HBsAg samples with known S gene sequences, 5 with Ile126 possessed this subtypic determinant, but the remaining 11 with Thr126 did not. The 5 hepatitis B virus genomes encoding the subtypic determinant differed less than 5.6% from each other in the entire nucleotide sequence, but by 8.0% or more from any of the other 11 genomes without the capacity to encode it.     

Genetic variability of hepatitis B virus isolates among population of Shuryskarsky area of Yamal-Nenets autonomous region

The purpose of this work was to determine occurrence of serological markers of hepatites B and to describe subtypes of a superficial antigen and genotypes of hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolates among indigenous population of Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Region (YNAR), Russia. METHODS: We investigated 657 serum samples from inhabitants of Shuryskarsky area of YNAR. ELISA method was used to define the hepatitis B markers: HBsAg, anti-HBs (total) and anti-HBc (IgG and IgM). The HBsAg-positive samples were PCR-tested for the presence of HBV DNA. Genotyping of isolates was by sequencing of the Pre-Sl/Pre-82/S region of HBV genome and phylogenetic analysis. Definition of HBsAg subtypes was executed by two methods: ELISA with subtype-specific monoclonal antibodies and S-gene nucleotide sequence analysis. RESULTS: The following occurrence of hepatitis B markers was observed: HBsAg - 3.2%, anti-HBs (total) - 36.2%, anti-HBc IgG - 30.3%, anti-HBc IgM - 1.6%. Frequency of carrying even one of the markers in the observed population was 47.5%. HBV DNA was found in 17 HBsAg-positive samples. Pre-SI, Pre-S2 and S regions sequences were determined for all HBV DNA-positive samples. The phylogenetic analysis showed an accessory of all investigated HBV isolates to genotype D. HBsAg subtypes distribution appeared the following: ayw2 - 23.5%, ayw3 - 70.6%, adw2 - 5.9%. Results of definition of the subtype ELISA method and by the analysis of S gene nucleotide sequences have coincided in 10/11 (90.1%) cases. CONCLUSIONS: The indigenous population of Shuryskarsky area of YNAR belongs to groups with average HBV carrying. Absolute domination of genotype D (subtypes ayw2, ayw3 and adw2) was revealed. High percentage of concurrence of HBsAg subtypes detected by the ELISA method and method of the analysis of S gene primary structure (90%) was observed. Sequencing of HBV S-gene is preferable to define HBsAg subtypes.     

应用酶联免疫吸附试验检测不同类型乙型肝炎中激活补体类HBsAg循环免疫复合物

本文以抗人C_(?)的羊IgG为包被抗体,以HRP-HBs抗体为指示抗体,建立了可检测激活补体类HBsAg循环免疫复合物(HBsAg/C3-CIC)的C_3捕捉法酶联免疫吸附试验。检测了236例六种类型临床诊断为乙型肝炎的病人血清标本,其阳性率分别为:无症状携带者(ASC)12.9％(4/31),急性肝炎(AH)36.7％(22/60),慢性迁延性肝炎(CPH)33.3％(7/21),慢性活动性肝炎(CAH)59.6％(34/57),重型肝炎(SH)77.8％(14/18),肝炎后肝硬化(PLC)67.3％(33/49),阳性率与肝损严重程度明显相关(P<0.01)。认为HBs-Ag/C3-CIC可能在乙型肝炎病毒引起的慢性活动性肝炎、重型肝炎和肝炎后肝硬化的发病过程中起重要作用,并可作为乙型肝炎的诊断、临床分型和预后判断的指标之一。     

Geographic distribution of HBsAg subtypes in Brazil

HBsAg positive serum samples (896) from five brazilian regions were analysed for HBsAg subtypes. The presence of five different subtypes (ayw2, ayw3, ayw4, adw2 and adw4) was detected. In Northern region subtypes adw4 (41.2%) and adw2 (37.2%) were predominant. In the North East only subtype adw2 was encountered. In Central West, South-East and South, subtypes ayw2, ayw3, adw2 and adw4 were present, with predominance of adw2 in Central West and South East (84.3% and 69.4% respectively) whereas in the South the predominant subtype was ayw3 (41.9%) followed by ayw2 (36.4%). Subtypes ayw1, ayr and adr were not found among the samples studied. These results show the difference in the incidence of HBsAg subtypes in the different regions of Brazil and their significance in relation to the colonization and migrations in this country.     

Demonstration and partial characterization of 22-nm HBsAg and Dane particles of subtype HBsAg/ady.

The present paper describes the demonstration of d, y, w, and r HBsAg determinants in one serum. It was shown that there are two populations of HBsAg particles: HBsAg/ad and HBsAg/ady. All complete Dane particles were of subtype HBsAg/ady. Further characterization of HBsAg/ady particles did not reveal morphologic differences when they were compared with HBsAg/ad and HBsAg/ay particles. An HBsAg/ady phenotype may be the result of a double infection with hepatitis B viruses or exchanges of DNA sequences that determine HBsAg/ay and HBsAg/ad to form a new genotype.     

Production of antibody to individual polypeptides derived from purified hepatitis B surface antigen.

Purified preparations of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) were solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea under reducing conditions and subsequently fractionated by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate-urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). Pools of the individual fractions eluted from the preparative PAGE were concentrated and purified further by analytical PAGE. Five purified polypeptides were isolated from HBsAg, types adw and ayw, with molecular weights of 19,000, 24,000, 27,000, 35,000, and 40,000. Each preparations was emulsified in Freund complete adjuvant and injected into guinea pigs. Antibody to each HBsAg type was measured by radioimmunoassay. The 19,000 molecular weight polypeptide derived from ayw particles and the 27,000 molecular weight subunit obtained from both types failed to elicit an antibody response. The other three polypeptides derived from the ayw particles elicited group-specific antibody responses. Similar group-specific reactivities were observed in the testing of anti-adw 35,000 and anti-adw 40,000 molecular weight polypeptide sera. However, guinea pigs immunized with the 19,000 and the 24,000 molecular weight polypeptides of the adw type produced antibody that reacted preferentially with adw particles. This indicates that either these subunits carry predominately d determinants or that, because of the low levels of material used for inoculation, no immune response or an undetectable one was elicited to the a or w components.
