Problems solved by technology

Inactivated vaccines are commonly used in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, but because of the need for multiple vaccinations (usually four or more), high price, short duration of immune efficacy, and immune response types that are biased towards humoral immunity, WHO Relevant countries and regions have been advised to gradually replace inactivated vaccines with other types of vaccines
SA14-14-2, a live attenuated JEV vaccine independently developed by my country, can induce high-intensity neutralizing antibody responses, and can also produce high levels of IFN-γ through T cell responses to enhance antiviral responses, but SA14-14-2 In addition to the "original sin" of the attenuated live vaccine, which may occur "virulence reversion", there is still a phenomenon of gradual attenuation of specific antibodies

Embodiment 1

[0026] Example 1 Construction of DNA vaccine pVAX1-SA14ME eukaryotic expression plasmid for Japanese encephalitis

[0027] 1. At first carry out the preparation of the target gene of antigen coding: with the original JEV SA14-14-2 strain shown in SEQ ID No.2 prM / E The gene is optimized as a template, and the optimization is mainly aimed at the partial tropism of the human species and the reasonable reduction of GC content in the sequence. The original sequence is synonymous with the amino acid sequence translated into the optimized sequence, but the nucleotide sequences of the original sequence and the optimized sequence are quite different. After optimization, the optimized gene shown in SEQ ID No.3 was obtained prM / E , the gene is artificially synthesized, and the artificial synthesis method is a known technique. optimizing genes prM / E Before inserting SEQ ID No.4 shown wxya The signal sequence gets wxya Signal sequence optimization prM / E Gene. On the basis of the s...

[0030] Example 2 In vivo and in vitro expression of the Japanese encephalitis DNA vaccine pVAX1-SA14ME constructed by the present invention

[0031] In order to verify the immunogenicity of the plasmid pVAX1-SA14ME constructed in Example 1, it is necessary to verify the target gene in vitro and in vivo after ensuring that the sequencing is completely matched. To this end, we transfected the plasmid pVAX1-SA14ME or the pVAX1 empty vector of the present invention into BHK-21 cells. After 48 hours, mouse JEV antiserum was used as the primary antibody, and FITC-labeled goat anti-mouse antibody was used as the secondary antibody. Indirect immunofluorescence staining ( figure 1 AB); the plasmid pVAX1-SA14ME or pVAX1 empty plasmid was immunized into the leg muscles of mice, and one week later, the muscles at the immunized site were sliced, the mouse JEV antiserum was used as the primary antibody, and the HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse antibody was used as the secondary antibody. chemi...

[0033] Example 3 Immunogenicity evaluation and protective effect evaluation of Japanese encephalitis DNA vaccine pVAX1-SA14ME constructed in the present invention

[0034] 1. In order to ensure that pVAX1-SA14ME can be used for subsequent applications, its immunogenicity and protective effect need to be verified, because the immune protection induced by JEV is mainly based on humoral immunity. ) mice for IgG titer and neutralizing antibody titer (PRNT 50 ), and challenged the mice after immunization to preliminarily evaluate its protective effect. Specific steps are as follows:

[0035] The challenge test was carried out on the mice after immunization (intraperitoneal injection of 1×10 7 PFU Beijing-1 strain of JEV virus, destroying the blood-brain barrier). figure 2 A is the dynamic anti-JEV IgG titer; figure 2 B is the dynamic anti-JEV neutralizing antibody titer; figure 2 C is the dynamic change of body weight after challenge; figure 2 D is the survival rate; fi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a DNA vaccine for preventing epidemic encephalitis B. The DNA vaccine is constructed by fusing eukaryotic expression plasmids with an antigen encoding gene as shown in SEQ ID No.1. According to the technical scheme, the prM / E synonymous sequence obtained through optimization conforms to and is suitable for the high expression of the human body, and is beneficial for the synthesis and application of the DNA vaccine. Compared with the existing DNA vaccine, the JEV DNA vaccine constructed by adopting the technical scheme has the advantages that the antigen sequence carriedby the plasmids is concise, the protective loci are concentrated, no neurovirulence loci exist, thus the safety is high, after codon optimization, the high expression of the human cells can be betteradapted, in addition, the JEV signal sequence is introduced, and thus the expression efficiency and the correct folding and directional transporting of target protein are further improved. The immunization efficiency is higher, the immunization time is more lasting, the phenomenon of rise of the morbidity caused by immunity attenuation induced by the vaccine can be avoided as far as possible, andthe public health pressure of China is further alleviated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a DNA vaccine, in particular to a DNA vaccine for preventing Japanese encephalitis and its construction method. Background technique [0002] Epidemic Japanese encephalitis virus, also known as Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), is widespread in Asian and Western Pacific countries and regions, posing a serious threat to local public health. According to estimates by the World Health Organization, about 60% of the world's population lives in JEV-endemic areas, and there are about 67,900 cases of Japanese encephalitis (JE) each year, of which 75% are children under the age of 15. The fatality rate of the disease is as high as 20-30%, and about half of the survivors have severe neurological sequelae. [0003] Vaccine is considered to be one of the more effective ways to prevent JE. In recent years, although the prevalence of JE has declined with the research and widespread application of various JEV vaccines (mainly attenuated l...
