Embodiment 1

[0029] Embodiment 1: the preparation method of recombinant protein argF nanoparticle

[0030] The specific operation steps are as follows:

[0031] (1) Amplify the MB1684 gene of M.bovis, construct the recombinant expression plasmid pProEx-MB1684, transform the recombinant plasmid into BL21 competent cells to obtain recombinant bacteria, induce the recombinant bacteria to express argF with IPTG, and use affinity chromatography to express The argF was purified, dialyzed to desalt, and freeze-dried to obtain the recombinant protein argF;

[0032] (2) Dissolving the lyophilized recombinant protein argF powder in PBS solution as the inner water phase;

[0033] (3) Take an appropriate amount of PLGA, dissolve it in a certain volume of ethyl acetate, and use it as the oil phase for subsequent use;

[0034] (4) Prepare 1% PVA aqueous solution as the external water phase, and 0.5% PVA aqueous solution as the diffusion phase;

[0035] (5) Slowly add the inner aqueous phase into the ...

Embodiment 2

[0039] Example 2: Nanoparticle Characterization and Morphological Observation

[0040] The samples prepared with the ratio of internal water phase and oil phase at 1:9 were characterized, and the particle size and potential were measured using a Malvern Zetasizer nanometer particle size potentiometer. The average particle size of the prepared argF nanoparticles is about 186.6nm, and the potential is -28.8mV. After being measured by an ultraviolet spectrophotometer, the encapsulation efficiency of the nanoparticles was calculated to be 76%. Scanning electron microscope results showed that argF nanoparticles were uniform in size and spherical with a smooth surface ( figure 1 ).

Embodiment 3

[0041] Example 3: Evaluation of Recombinant argF Protein Nanoparticles Enhanced BCG Immune Effect

[0042] The experimental animals were randomly divided into 5 groups, 9 mice in each group, divided into PBS group (no immunization, only challenge), BCG control group (BCG+PBS), BCG+argF group, BCG+PBS-NP group (BCG+blank nanoparticles), BCG+argF-NP group (BCG+argF nanoparticles). Use BCG for the first immunization (approximately 1×10 6 4 weeks later, the recombinant argF protein nanoparticles were boosted for the first time by nasal drops (the dose of argF protein nanoparticles was 75 μg / head), with an interval of 2 weeks, a total of 3 times. Four weeks after the third immunization, 3 mice were randomly selected from each group to detect relevant immune indicators. The rest of the mice were challenged with M.bovis (NTSE-2 strain) by nasal drops (about 1000 CFU / mouse), and samples were taken for follow-up detection after 4 weeks.

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of recombinant argF protein nanoparticles, recombinant argF protein nanoparticles prepared via the preparation method, and application of the recombinantargF protein nanoparticles in the preparation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis vaccines. The preparation method herein comprises dissolving lyophilized recombinant protein argF powder in a PBS (phosphatebuffered solution) to form an internal water phase; weighing suitable PLGA (poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)), and dissolving in ethyl acetate having a certain volume to obtain an oil phase for use; preparing 1% PVA (polyvinyl acetate) solution as an external water phase, and 0.5% PVA solution as a diffuse phase; dropwise adding the internal water phase slowly into the oil phase, performing ultrasonic treatment under an ice bath to form a primary emulsion; dropwise adding the primary emulsion into an external water phase solution having a certain volume, and performing ultrasonic treatment underan ice bath to form a secondary emulsion; dropwise adding the secondary emulsion into the diffuse phase, placing on a magnetic stirrer, and diffusing an organic solvent fully into the diffuse phase so as to solidify polymer emulsion droplets; adding aseptic distilled water into the polymer emulsion droplets, and washing to obtain recombinant argF protein nanoparticle emulsion. Compared with traditional BCG (Bacillus Calmette Guerin) immune controls, argF nanoparticle vaccines acquired through the recombinant argF protein nanoparticles prepared via the preparation method can evidently increasethe mucosal immune IgA level, reduce tissue bacterium-loading quantity, and promote BCG immunization effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of novel vaccine applications, and in particular relates to the application of argF nano particles in the preparation of tuberculosis prevention vaccines. Background technique [0002] Tuberculosis (Tuberculosis, TB) is a chronic wasting zoonotic disease caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex (MTBC) bacteria. Bovine tuberculosis (Bovine Tuberculosis, BTB) is mainly caused by mycobacterium bovis (M.bovis), but it can also cause human tuberculosis, so BTB will also threaten human health. Currently there is no effective vaccine to prevent tuberculosis caused by BTB, and there is an urgent need to develop new and effective vaccines for prevention or as a booster vaccine against BCG to control this disease that poses a global health threat. [0003] argF plays an indispensable role in the survival of M.bovis. argF is one of the key factors for the survival of M.bovis. argF also has a regulatory function that cannot ...
