摘要
血凝素 (HA)是决定禽流感病毒的毒力强弱和免疫原性的主要蛋白质 .根据已发表的H9亚型AIV的HA基因序列 ,设计合成了 1对H9HA特异引物 ,以AIVA/Chicken/Henan/ 1 / 1 999/ (H9N2 )核酸为模板 ,通过RT PCR扩增出 1条 1 6kbcDNA片段 .将HA基因插入pVAX1中 ,构建了真核表达质粒pVAX H9.采用活体电击法免疫 3周龄SPF鸡 1 0只 ,剂量为 5 0 μg/只 ,3周后加强免疫一次 ,5周后以 1 0 0倍鸡胚感染剂量 (EID)的HA基因同源病毒对所有鸡进行攻毒 .其间每周检测抗体水平变化 ,6周后以棉拭子进行泄殖腔病毒分离 .结果为攻毒后免疫组鸡HI效价为 9log2~ 1 0log2 ,对照组为 2log2~ 4log2 ;免疫组病毒分离数为 0 / 1 0 ,对照组为 1 0 / 1 0 .
Avian influenza (AI) was caused by A avian influenza virus in chicken all over the world. One 1 6 kb DNA fragment was amplified by RT PCR from the RNA of AIV A/Chicken/Henan/1/1999(H9N2) and proved to be HA gene by sequencing. The HA gene expression plasmid pVAX H9 was constructed by inserting the fragment into the pVAX1 vector. 3 week old SPF chickens were inoculated with 50 μg DNA of plasmid pVAX H9 by electroporation, 5 weeks later, all chickens were challenged with 100×EID50 of AIV A/Chicken/Henan/1/1999(H9N2), 1 week post challenge all birds were sampled by cloacal swabbing to isolate virus. The virus isolation was negative in all vaccinated birds and positive in all control birds. The HI titers reached to 10lg2 in vaccinated group, in contrast to 2lg2~4lg2 in control group post challenge respectively. These results showed that the plasmid pVAX H9 designed as DNA vaccine would be able to elicit a firm protective immune response against AIV infection.
