丙型肝炎病毒(hepatitis C virus,HCV)是非甲非乙型肝炎的主要病原,目前还没有有效的预防和治疗手段。多表位DNA疫苗(multi-epitope DNA vaccine, minigenes/epigenes)是指通过筛选与组合优势抗原表位(包括T细胞、B细胞表位)基因,以能产生高效细胞、体液免疫应答进而清除HCV病毒为目的的新型核酸疫苗。其优势在于通过选择最具免疫保护潜力的表位以覆盖尽量多的病毒亚型和诱导全面的机体抗病毒免疫应答,并尽量减少无关、干扰和抑制序列可能产生的负面影响。本文介绍近年来国内外在丙型肝炎多表位DNA疫苗方面的研究进展,并展望了其发展方向。 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a global health problem and one of the main reasons for chronic liver diseases such as cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The HCV genome is translated into a polyprotein which is proteolytically processed into 10 viral proteins. The interactome of the HCV proteins with the host cell has been worked out; however, it remains unclear how viral proteins interact with each other. We aimed to generate the interaction network of these 10 HCV proteins using a flow-cytometry-based FRET assay established in our laboratory (Banning, C., Votteler, J., Hoffmann, D., Koppensteiner, H., Warmer, M., Reimer, R., Kirchhoff, F., Schubert, U., Hauber, J., and Schindler, M. (2010) A flow cytometry-based FRET assay to identify and analyse protein-protein interactions in living cells. PLoS One 5, e9344).HCV proteins were constructed as fusions with the chromophores CFP and YFP. All HCV fusions were expressed and localized to specific subcellular compartments, indicating that they were functional. FACS-FRET measurements identified a total of 20 interactions; 13 of these were previously described and have now been confirmed in living cells via our method. Among the seven novel protein binding pairs, HCV p7 plays a pivotal role. It binds to the HCV capsid protein Core and the two glycoproteins E1 and E2. These interplays were further demonstrated in the relevant context of Huh7.5 liver cells expressing infectious HCV.Our work demonstrates the feasibility of rapidly generating small interaction networks via FACS-FRET and defines the network of intra-HCV protein interactions. Furthermore, our data support an important role of p7 in HCV assembly.Hepatitis C virus (HCV)1 belongs to the family of Flaviviridae and is the only member of the genus Hepacivirus. The ∼9.5-kB positive-strand RNA genome is directly translated via an internal ribosomal entry site into a polyprotein. This is proteolytically processed by cellular and viral proteases into structural (Core, E1, E2) and nonstructural (p7, NS2, NS3, NS4A/B, and NS5A/B) proteins (1). In recent decades, light was shed on the importance and biological relevance of most HCV proteins, which ultimately led to the development of the first specific antiviral therapy involving inhibition of the NS3 serine protease (2). However, because HCV is highly variable and because of the rapid emergence of drug resistance, additional therapeutic approaches are urgently needed (2). An impressive body of data was derived from protein interaction or siRNA screens investigating the interplay of HCV proteins with cellular factors (3–5). Although these screens are essential in order for researchers to understand how HCV manipulates the host cell, their potential benefit for novel therapeutic approaches could be limited. HCV is a chronic viral infection, and targeting host factors might result in drugs with severe adverse effects. Thus, a promising strategy would be to specifically inhibit interactions among viral proteins. Surprisingly, until now, a comprehensive analysis of the putative interactions and the interplay of HCV proteins with each other in living human cells has been lacking.In the present work, we did an extensive and thorough analysis of intra-HCV protein interactions. We used our novel flow-cytometry-based FRET assay that allows rapid assessment of the interplay between proteins in thousands of living cells (6). Therefore, this experimental approach enables quantification and statistical evaluation of all results. From the total of 20 interactions established by FACS-FRET, we chose to further investigate three that were not yet described in the literature. The putative HCV viroporin p7 binds to the structural proteins, and this was verified via biochemical methods in cells expressing fully infectious HCV.The established network of intra-HCV protein interactions in living mammalian cells provides new insights into the biology of this important human pathogen. Furthermore, we identified several HCV protein interactions that could be targeted for antiviral therapy. 相似文献
