溶瘤I型单纯疱疹病毒的研究进展

溶瘤病毒(Oncolytic virus,OV)是可以靶向感染并杀伤肿瘤细胞的一类病毒,其中溶瘤I型单纯疱疹病毒(Oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1,OHSV-1)是目前研究最多的溶瘤病毒之一,可通过多种策略进行构建,已有多种OHSV-1进入临床试验,大量结果显示其具有较好的安全性和有效性。本文主要介绍OHSV-1的分子生物学特性与优势、主要的开发及靶向性策略、各类OHSV-1的研究进展以及目前存在的问题等。     

单纯疱疹病毒的复制组装机制

组装是病毒复制特有的必需环节,不同类型的病毒,其组装机制有着很大差异。如疱疹病毒等双链DNA(Double strand DNA,dsDNA)病毒,其组装过程需要以末端酶为代表的多种组装相关蛋白的共同参与和相互协作。本文即以I型单纯疱疹病毒(HSV-1)为例就疱疹病毒(甚至是dsDNA病毒)的复制组装作一简单的综述。     

单纯疱疹病毒

<正>单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)是引起急性疱疹性齿龈口炎、口唇疱疹、咽扁桃腺炎、皮炎、生殖器疱疹、角膜结膜炎、脑炎、脑脊膜炎和新生儿疱疹等疾病的病原体,分为1型(HSV—1)和2型(HSV—2)。由于近年来出现了与初感染年龄上升相伴的重度初感染者增加的倾向,并开发了可用于治疗的acyclovir等抗病毒制剂,所以对HSV感染症早期诊断的重要性提高了。 在HSV感染症中,像口唇疱疹,典型生殖器疱疹等具特征性症状时,仅由临床所见便可确诊。但在皮疹中,HSV感染症需与水痘、带状疱疹病毒感染症等鉴别诊断,对脑炎、脑脊膜炎等由外表不能观察的病变也要进行实验室诊断。 在对HSV感染症迅速而简便的实验室诊断法中,有利用单抗的直接萤光抗体法。但在检样少或检样中蛋白等杂质多时往往难以检测到病毒抗原。     

单纯疱疹病毒疫苗研究进展

人类单纯疱疹病毒(Herpes simplex virus,HSV)感染非常普遍,除原发感染外,还有潜伏感染和复发性感染。因此,HSV疫苗的研制目的也不同于其他的疫苗。现已研制出多种不同的HSV疫苗。本文将讨论这些疫苗的研究进展、特点和存在的问题。

单纯疱疹病毒潜伏感染和作为基因工程载体的应用

近年关于单纯疱疹病毒（ＨＳＶ）潜伏的分子机理研究取得重大突破。虽然ＨＳＶ能够形成潜伏感染的特性给防治造成棘手的难题,然而利用这一特性动为将ＨＳＶ改造成基因工程载体提供了可能,ＨＳＶ载体的开发将为基因治疗和神经科学等展现广阔的应用前景,这方面初步应用已有一良好开端,但在评价其未来活体内应用潜力时,还有一些重要问题必需阐明。     

单纯疱疹病毒UL41基因研究进展

ＵＬ４１基因是单纯冷饮疹病毒基因组长独特区中的４１号开放读码框架，其编码蛋白具有关闭宿主细胞合成代谢的功能，这个关闭功能是由两个时期作用的结果，即早期和晚期关闭。本着重介绍了每个时期作用的机理及影响因素，以期在探索肿瘤基因治疗方面获得某些有益的启示。     

单纯疱疹病毒的PCR直接基因分型

本文利用ＰＣＲ技术建立一种对ＨＳＶ直接基因分型的方法。在ＨＳＶ－Ⅰ、Ⅱ两型的ＤＮＡ多聚酶基因上设计了一条两型共同的上游引物（ＨＤＰ－Ｂ）和两条型特异的下游引物（ＨＤＰ－１、ＨＤＰ－２）。三条引物共同组成一个扩增反应体系,在ＨＳＶ－Ⅰ产生５４３ｂｐ条带,ＨＳＶ－Ⅱ产生３７２ｂｐ条带,据此在基因水平上对ＨＳＶ进行分型。５株不同来源的ＨＳＶ（２株Ⅰ型,３株Ⅱ型）分型结果与病毒分离及血清学方法完全一致。该     

Effect of Heparin on Hemagglutinin of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1

Heparin inhibited the hemagglutinin activity of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1. The minimal inhibitory concentration of heparin required to inhibit 8 hemagglutination (HA) U of HSV ranged from 0.005 to 0.01 U/ml. Mouse erythrocytes failed to combine with the HA inhibitory factor of heparin. On the other hand, mouse erythrocytes treated with heparinase had greatly reduced agglutinability by HSV. Virus-heparin complex formation was observed by sedimenting heparin with the virus particles.     

一种包装AAV2/5的重组单纯疱疹病毒的构建

为了得到一种可以包装AAV2/5和表达绿色荧光蛋白的重组单纯疱疹病毒,设计并构建了一个由AAV2rep基因和AAV5cap基因嵌合而成的rep2cap5基因,然后,利用一套携带HSV1基因组的粘粒系统(cos6、cos28、cos14、cos56、cos48),将rep2cap5基因插入cos6粘粒上HSV1基因组片段的UL2基因中,而将EGFP的表达单位插入cos56粘粒上HSV1基因组片段的UL44基因中,用这2个重组粘粒与其它3个粘粒(cos14、cos28、cos48)共转染BHK-21细胞获得了重组病毒HSV1-r2c5-EGFP并进行了空斑纯化。HSV1-r2c5-EGFP病毒能够在BHK-21细胞连续传代,并且可以观察到几乎所有的感染细胞都能产生绿色荧光。用PCR方法以及Southern杂交方法表明所获得的HSV1-r2c5-EGFP中携带有rep2cap5基因,用HSV1-r2c5-EGFP感染携带报告基因LacZ的AAV载体细胞株,获得了具有感染性的重组AAV2/5-LacZ。结果表明,所获得的重组单纯疱疹病毒HSV1-r2c5-EGFP可提供AAV2/5载体包装所需的全部辅助功能,是一种能简便、高效制备重组AAV2/5病毒的通用性辅助病毒。

原核表达并纯化单纯疱疹病毒特异性糖蛋白抗原,用于建立单纯疱疹病毒的临床检测方法。选择单纯疱疹病毒特异性糖蛋白型共同抗原gD以及型特异性抗原gGl(Ⅰ型)、gG2(Ⅱ型),合成PCR引物,分别扩增其DNA片段,插入原核表达载体pQE30,转化大肠杆菌M15,筛选高表达菌株,进行初步纯化鉴定。结果获得了表达菌株,对高表达的gD初步进行了包涵体的复性及纯化,为建立单纯疱疹病毒临床检测方法奠定了基础。     

In Vitro Selection of Variants of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Which Differ in Cytopathic Changes

To analyze the mechanisms for in vitro emergence of the syncytial variants of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), several cell lines were infected with a mixture of equal amounts of two HSV-1 variants, one syncytial and the other non-syncytial, and changes in their relative abundance were monitored during passage. With a combination of two variants of the Miyama strain of HSV-1, the syncytial variant became dominant during passage in Vero, RK-13 and FL cells. On the other hand, the ratios of the two variants remained around 1:1 during the passage in HEp-2, MGC and HEL cells. In another set of variants of the SKO strain of HSV-1, the outcomes were different from those of the Miyama strain in the FL, MGC and HEp-2 cells. The ratios of the two variants remained around 1:1 during passage in FL cells, while the non-syncytial variant became dominant during passage in MGC and HEp-2 cells. In addition, we examined the effects of a complement and interferon-β (IFN-β) on the outcome of the selection. As a result, the complement slowed the selection of a syncytial variant, whereas IFN-β facilitated it.     

脑啡肽-干扰素α-m融合蛋白外用治疗单纯疱疹病毒感染

为探讨脑啡肽-干扰素α-m融合蛋白(EI)外用治疗单纯疱疹病毒感染的作用,分别用HSV-1感染兔子角膜、HSV-2感染豚鼠阴道建立动物感染模型.兔子角膜感染24h后用融合蛋白滴眼液治疗,每天3次,每次0.5ml,共14天.豚鼠阴道感染48h后,用融合蛋白涂剂抹外阴病灶,每天3次,每次10mg,共14天.用IFNα-m和生理盐水/赋形剂作为对照.采用记录病损程度分级法进行临床症消减观察,并于治疗前后测定实验动物病灶病毒滴度、HSV抗体滴度及NK细胞活性.结果显示:与IFNα-m相比,EI治疗组实验动物病毒感染症状大幅减轻且病程缩短,动物病灶中病毒滴度下降,抗HSV抗体滴度升高,NK细胞活性增强.说明脑啡肽干扰素融合蛋白具有较强的消除炎症和局部抗病毒作用,可用于治疗HSV感染引起的疾病.     

单纯疱疹病毒糖蛋白D的表达及免疫学鉴定

单纯疱疹病毒(herpes simplex virus,HSV)是TORCH综合征的病原体之一.新生儿可通过宫内、产道和出生后等多种途径感染,大部分患儿呈现症状,如皮炎、角膜炎、口唇疱疹,也可发生涉及多个器官的播散性感染,严重者出现疱疹性脑膜炎,并常导致婴幼儿死亡.目前尚无全身用的特效药物和有效的防范措施.HSV包膜糖蛋白D(glycoprotein D,gD)是极为保守的免疫原性蛋白,在体内可诱导高滴度的中和抗体,因此gD基因成为近些年来诊断研究的靶基因.本文尝试将gD蛋白在酵母菌中表达,并分析其抗原性,为建立快速易行的重组抗原诊断试剂盒奠定基础.此外,利用该表达系统表达的HSV gD蛋白,可为HSV基因工程重组疫苗的研制提供依据,对优生优育、提高人口出生质量具有重要的理论及实际意义.     

Analysis of the Relationship between Cellular Thymidine Kinase Activity and Virulence of Thymidine Kinase-Negative Herpes Simplex Virus Types 1 and 2

The virulence of thymidine kinase-negative herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1; VRTK^? strain) and type 2 (HSV-2; UWTK^? strain) was studied in comparison with that of their parental strains (VR-3 and UW-268, respectively) in an encephalitis model of adult (4-week-old) and newborn (3-day-old) mice. Viral thymidine kinase (TK) activity was essential for the maximum expression of virulence of HSV-1, because the 50% lethal dose (LD₅₀) of VRTK^? was 60 times higher than that of VR-3 in the brains of newborn mice expressing high levels of cellular TK activity. However, the UWTK^? strain showed the same virulence as the parental strain in newborn mice, despite the lack virulence in adults, suggesting that replication of the UWTK^? strain was completely supported by cellular TK activity. This difference in the role of viral and cellular TKs for virus growth between HSV-1 and HSV-2 was confirmed with the one-step growth of virus strains in L-M and L-M(TK^?) cells.     

Growth and Cytopathogenicity of Herpes Simplex Virus in a Macrophage Cell Line,RAW264: A Good Indicator of Intraperitoneal Pathogenicity

Macrophages are known to play a critical role in host resistance to herpes simplex virus (HSV). In this study, we investigate the interaction between various HSV strains with different virulence and a murine macrophage cell line, RAW264. Highly attenuated strains replicated poorly in RAW264 cells and were cleared from the cultures. For the eleven viruses tested, there was good correlation between intraperitoneal pathogenicity for adult mice and replication in RAW264 cells. It was also shown that interferon α/β was involved in restricted replication of some strains.     

Reactivation of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 in Cells of Latently Infected Mouse Trigeminal Ganglia Cultured in Serum-Free Medium

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) was reactivated more rapidly in cells of latently infected mouse trigeminal ganglia which were cultured in serum-free medium (after 3.7 days of cultivation) than in those cultured in serum-containing Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (after 8.5 days of cultivation). The concentration of calcium ion (Ca²⁺) in the medium affected HSV-1 reactivation in ganglionic cultures, and 0.9 mM was the optimum concentration for the reactivation. Reactivation was delayed significantly in ganglia put into culture 4 months or more after infection compared with those cultured 1 month after infection.     

Immunohistochemical Studies on the Transneuronal Spread of Virulent Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 and Its US3 Protein Kinase-Deficient Mutant after Ocular Inoculation

The transneuronal spread of a virulent wild-type herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) and its US3 protein kinase-deficient (US3 PK^?) mutant was immunohistochemically studied in mice after inoculations into the cornea, anterior chamber, tongue, and masseter muscle. After corneal inoculation, the wild-type virus was demonstrated in various brain stem areas including the trigeminal tract and nucleus, the reticular formation, and cerebellar nucleus group. Viral antigen-positive neurons were strictly confined to the ipsilateral spinal trigeminal nucleus in mice corneally infected with the US3 PK^? mutant. No viral antigens were detected in the central nervous system (CNS) after inoculation with the mutant into the tongue and masseter muscle. However, when mice were immunosuppressed by treatment with cyclophosphamide, both the corneally infected mutant and wild-type virus could invade the CNS. The results suggest that the US3 PK^? mutant principally retains the capacity to spread in the CNS.
