Virus-like particle coated with aluminum-containing metal organic framework mineralization layer and application of virus-like particle

The invention discloses a virus-like particle coated with an aluminum-containing metal organic framework mineralization layer and application of the virus-like particle. In order to improve the VLPs vaccine stability and immune effect, the invention synthesizes a novel aluminum-containing metal organic framework (ZAM). The ZAM can mineralize the VLPs at a high level under a mild condition to form the VLPs-ZAM nano vaccine. Taking a foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) virus-like particle (VLPs) vaccine as an example, a heat treatment test shows that ZAM mineralization significantly improves the heat stability of FMDVVLPs, and the effect is superior to that of Al (OH) 3 and ZIF-8. The FMDV VLPs-ZAM not only has the effect of promoting APCs to take in FMDVVLPs, but also can promote antigens to escape from lysosome to cytoplasm due to the pH responsiveness of the FMDV VLPs-ZAM. A mouse immune test shows that ZAM mineralization improves the specific immune response level and stability induced by FMDV VLPs. The invention provides a new technical means for improving the stability of the VLPs vaccine and the immune effect of the VLPs vaccine.
