金黄色葡萄球菌ClfA蛋白Th表位鉴定及其免疫原性分析(英文)
Identification of Th cell epitopes on ClfA adhesin of Staphylococcus aureus and characterization of their role in immunity
【摘要】 【目的】ClfA蛋白是金黄色葡萄球菌粘附于宿主细胞的最主要粘附因子之一,筛选鉴定ClfA蛋白的Th表位,研制基于表位的联合疫苗将成为该菌疫苗新的发展方向。【方法】本研究采用生物信息学软件预测ClfA可能的H-2d限制性Th表位,并以CD4+T淋巴细胞增殖实验及流式细胞分析进行筛选和鉴定。【结果】获得BALB/c小鼠H-2d限制性Th1表位(C335)和Th2表位(C214,C286和C436)。【结论】筛选出优势性Th细胞表位,并对表位的免疫学特性进行实验免疫研究,为最终研制保护作用强、安全性高的新型疫苗奠定基础。
【Abstract】 [Objective] The ClfA adhesin of Staphylococcus aureus is an excellent vaccine candidate antigen.CD4+ T cells play central roles during immune responses,but their functional contributions to Staphylococcus aureus in fection have yet to be evaluated.[Methods] By using the SYFPEITHI prediction algorithm,we identified and characterized four Th epitopes within the ClfA adhesin.[Results] Peptide C335 was I-Ed restricted Th1 type epitopes;peptides C214,C286,and C436 were I-Ad restricted Th2 type epitope.[Conclusion] The identification of these epitopes is important to evaluate and optimize the vaccine-primed protection against Staphylococcus aureus infection.
