Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of immunology, and particularly relates to a monoclonal antibody against infectious pancreatic necrosis virus and its application. Background Art
[0002] Infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) is an acute and highly contagious disease that mainly affects salmonids. It is caused by infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), and the mortality rate is generally 10%-90%. IPNV is divided into 7 genotypes (genome types I-VII). In China, the main prevalent genome types are I and V, and it is listed as a class III animal disease in China.
[0003] The VP2 protein of IPNV has multiple important biological significances. On the one hand, it can bind to viral RNA and participate in various viral biological activities. On the other hand, its high immunogenicity can enable the body to produce a large number of antibodies shortly after being infected with the virus. Therefore, the VP2 protein of IPNV can be used as an ideal target antigen for the early detection and diagnosis of large-scale outbreaks of salmonids. Summary of the Invention

[0088] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. The provided embodiments are only for clarifying the present invention, rather than limiting the scope of the present invention. The following provided embodiments can be used as a guide for those of ordinary skill in the art to make further improvements, and do not limit the present invention in any way.
[0089] The experimental methods in the following embodiments are all conventional methods unless otherwise specified, and are carried out according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature in this field or according to the product specifications. The materials, reagents, etc. used in the following embodiments can be obtained from commercial sources unless otherwise specified.
[0090] Example 1: Preparation and Application of Monoclonal Antibodies Against Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus
[0091] I. Experimental Methods
[0092] 1. Selection of Antigen Epitopes
[0093] Screen antigen epitopes for the VP2 protein of IPNV virus. Download the common IPNV VP2 protein sequences of type I and type V from the NCBI website, perform protein sequence alignment through the Snapgene software, and select the fragment sequences with high conservation. With the help of software such as DNAMAN, websites such as IEDB and Bepipred, screen out the peptide segments with high antigenicity. Download the constructed IPNV VP2 structure from the Uniprot and PDB websites, visualize the VP2 protein through the PyMOL software, and screen out the peptide segments located on the protein surface. After determining the peptide segments, hand them over to Genescript for synthesis. Since the short peptides are short, in order to enhance their immunogenicity, synthesize naked peptides and polypeptides conjugated with KLH respectively. Among them, the polypeptides conjugated with KLH are used to immunize mice, and the naked peptides are used as antigens for screening positive hybridomas and antibodies.
[0094] 2. Preparation, Purification and Identification of Monoclonal Antibodies
[0095] The peptide-KLH conjugate protein at 1 mg / ml was used as an antigen and mixed with Quick Antibody 3W adjuvant (purchased from Bioron Biotech Co., Ltd.) at a ratio of 1:1, and then injected into the hind leg muscles of 6-8-week-old BALB / c mice, with 100 μl injected into each mouse. Booster immunization was carried out 14 days later, and non-immunized mice were used as negative controls. Seven days after booster immunization, blood was collected from the tail tips of the mice, incubated overnight at 4 °C, centrifuged to collect the supernatant, and ELISA titer detection was performed. When the titer reached 1:6400, cell fusion was carried out. Through subcloning and screening of hybridoma cells, the 3 wells with the highest OD values were selected for the next subcloning each time. Finally, two cell lines, IPNV-vp2-178-2A7 and IPNV-vp2-380-1G12, which could stably secrete monoclonal antibodies, were obtained. 6-8-week-old BALB / c mice were intraperitoneally injected with Freund's incomplete adjuvant, and the expanded hybridoma cells were injected 7 days later. The ascites of the mice were harvested 7-10 days later. The antibody was purified using a Protein A antibody purification column, and after measuring the antibody concentration, it was stored at -80 °C; the antibody was labeled with HRP using an HRP conjugation kit from Abcam. The antibody secreted by IPNV-vp2-178-2A7 was named VP2-178, and the antibody secreted by IPNV-vp2-380-1G12 was named VP2-380.
[0096] Identification of the antibody by Western blotting: EPC cells (ATCC CRL-2872) were seeded in a six-well plate. After 12 h, suspensions of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV, GenBank: MT242597), spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV, GenBank: MT675953), and viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV, described in the article "Xu Liming, Liu Miao, et al.

Freshwater Fisheries, 2015, 45(2): 49-55", which can be obtained from the applicant by the public and can only be used for repeating the experiments of this invention and not for other purposes) were seeded in a six-well plate. After 12 h, a suspension of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV, GenBank: KX234591) was added. The cells were cultured at 15 °C for 48 h, and then the cells were collected for Western blotting detection. Using the purified VP2 monoclonal antibody as the primary antibody and the HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgM antibody as the secondary antibody, after incubation at 37 °C for 1 h, development and analysis were carried out using ECL luminescent solution in an imager.
[0097] Indirect immunofluorescence identification of antibodies: Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV, GenBank: KX234591) was inoculated into CHSE-214 cells, and infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV, GenBank: MT242597), spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV, GenBank: MT675953), and viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV, described in the article "Xu Liming, Liu Miao, et al. Prokaryotic expression and application of antigenic epitope enrichment region of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus. Freshwater Fisheries, 2015, 45(2): 49-55", which can be obtained from the applicant by the public and can only be used for repeating the experiments of the present invention and shall not be used for other purposes) were inoculated into EPC cells. After culturing at 15 °C for 48 h, the cells were washed twice with sterile PBS. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature for 30 min, and the cells were perforated with 0.5% Triton-X 100 for 20 min. The cells were blocked with 5% skim milk powder at 37 °C for 1 h. Using the prepared VP2 monoclonal antibody as the primary antibody and Alexa Fluor 488-labeled goat anti-mouse IgM as the secondary antibody, after incubating at 37 °C for 1 h, the cells were washed three times with PBS, 1 μg / mL DAPI was added, and the reaction was carried out at 37 °C for 5 min. After washing three times with PBS, the results were observed using a fluorescence microscope.
[0098] 3. Establishment of antigen capture ELISA method
[0099] Test procedure:
[0100] (1) Coating capture antibody: Dilute the capture antibody with coating buffer (pH 9.6 carbonate buffer), add 100 μL to each well for coating.
[0101] (2) Blocking: After washing away the unbound capture antibody, add the blocking solution (100 μL / well), block at 37 °C to reduce non-specific binding.
[0102] (3) Sample addition and incubation: Add the diluted test sample (100 μL / well), incubate at 37 °C to allow the antigen to bind to the capture antibody.
[0103] (4) Washing: Wash 3-5 times with PBST (PBS containing 0.05% Tween-20), 5 minutes each time, to remove unbound substances.
[0104] (5) Adding detection antibody: Add the HRP-labeled detection antibody (100 μL / well), incubate at 37 °C to form a "capture antibody - antigen - enzyme-labeled antibody" complex.
[0105] (6) Color development and termination: After washing the plate, add the TMB reaction substrate, develop color in the dark, and then add the termination solution (2M H2SO4) to terminate the reaction.
[0106] (7) Detection and calculation: Read OD450 with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader.
[0107] By optimizing the reaction conditions, the optimal capture antibody and detection antibody were determined, and their optimal working concentrations were determined as follows: VP2-178 antibody and VP2-380 antibody were used as the capture antibody and detection antibody respectively. The capture antibody was serially diluted 4-fold (1000 - 256000) to screen out the optimal capture antibody and detection antibody. The concentrations of the screened capture antibody (1 μg / well, 0.5 μg / well, 0.1 μg / well, 0.05 μg / well, 0.01 μg / well) and detection antibody (stock concentration 1 mg / ml, dilution ratios 1:1000, 1:2000, 1:4000, 1:8000) were optimized. At the same time, the optimal coating time (overnight at 4 °C, overnight at 4 °C + 1 h at 37 °C, 1 h at 37 °C, 2 h at 37 °C), optimal blocking solution (3% skim milk powder, 5% skim milk powder, 3% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 5% FBS, 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA), 5% BSA), optimal blocking time (0.5 h, 1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h, 2.5 h), optimal antigen reaction time (0.5 h, 1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h, 2.5 h), optimal detection antibody incubation time (0.5 h, 1 h, 1.5 h, 2 h, 2.5 h), and optimal TMB chromogenic time (10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 30 min) in the ELISA detection were determined. The optimal working conditions were determined according to the OD450 values under different conditions, where the larger the OD450 value, the better the detection effect.
[0108] 4. Determination of the cut-off value for the antigen capture ELISA method
[0109] Fifteen IPNV-negative and 33 IPNV-positive samples previously determined by the RT-qPCR detection method (the optimal method screened in the article "Zhang Wen et al. Establishment and application of a real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR detection method for infectious pancreatic necrosis virus. China Animal Health Inspection, Vol. 40, No. 4, 2023", including the optimal primers, probes, and detection conditions) were selected for detection. Interactive dot plot analysis was performed using MedCalcv20.0.10 to determine the cut-off value of the antigen capture ELISA method.
[0110] 5. Evaluation of the antigen capture ELISA detection method

[0122] 1. Antigenic epitope
[0123] Through software such as DNAMAN, websites such as IEDB and Bepipred, the antigenicity and hydrophilicity of the IPNV-VP2 protein sequence were analyzed. It was found that the peptide segments at positions 178-191aa, 197-210aa, 17-30aa, 32-45aa, 399-412aa and 380-393aa of the IPNV-VP2 protein sequence all had strong hydrophilicity, and the peptide segments at positions 17-30aa, 165-220aa, 370-421aa had strong antigenicity, and the peptide segment length was greater than 14. It was comprehensively found that 178-191aa, 197-210aa, 17-30aa, 399-412aa, 380-393aa of the VP2 protein had strong antigenicity. As shown in Table 1, Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.

[0126] 2. Short peptides on the protein surface
[0127] The structure of VP2 protein was queried on the Uniprot website and visualized in the PyMOL software. Antigenic sites on the protein surface were screened out from it. Among them, positions 17 - 30, 139 - 152, and 399 - 412 of the IPNV - VP2 protein sequence were partially blocked, and positions 178 - 191, 197 - 210, and 380 - 393 were on the protein surface. As Figure 3 shown
[0128] To establish an ELISA detection method, two different antigenic epitopes need to be selected on each protein respectively and used as capture antibody and labeled antibody. Considering that the short peptides may affect each other if they are too close, two short peptides, VP2 - 178 and VP2 - 380, were selected as antigenic epitopes (see Table 2), Figure 4 indicating their relative positions

[0131] 3. Solubility analysis
[0132] The solubility of the peptide segments was evaluated through the official website of https: / / www.genscript.com, and it was found that all the above - mentioned sites had strong solubility. Since the short peptides were short, to enhance their immunogenicity, naked peptides and peptides conjugated with KLH were synthesized respectively. Among them, the peptides conjugated with KLH were used to immunize mice, and the naked peptides were used as antigens for screening positive hybridomas and antibodies. They were synthesized by a biological company and dissolved in appropriate solvents, as shown in Table 3
