The present application relates to the technical field of biological
medicine, and particularly relates to a
fusion protein and application thereof in preparation of a product for treating or preventing
hepatitis B
virus. The present application takes preS1 as a core
antigen component and takes an improved IgM as a basic skeleton to obtain a preS1-IgM
monomer, and then connects the preS1-IgM
monomer through a J chain to obtain a
fusion protein. The
fusion protein is taken as an
active component to construct a
therapeutic vaccine, which can effectively stimulate an anti-preS1
antibody response and synergistically activate a Th1 / Th2 immune response. Experiments show that the vaccine alone can significantly reduce the serum
HBsAg, HBV
DNA and intrahepatic
virus antigen levels of a chronic HBV infection model, and realize seroconversion of part of the animals. When the vaccine is used in combination with
entecavir, a remarkable synergistic effect is exhibited. The vaccine significantly improves the
therapeutic effect without causing significant
liver damage, and provides an innovative
immunotherapy with both prevention and treatment functions for
chronic hepatitis B treatment.
