Aim:
To express hantaan virus(HTNV) envelope glycoprotein G(2) recombinant adenovirus(Adeno-G(2)) in vero E6 cells and explore its property of inducing immune response.
Methods:
Vero E6 cells were infected with the HTNV Adeno-G(2) (100 MOI). The expression of Adeno-G(2) in the infected Vero E6 cells was detected by IFA. BALB/c mice were immunized with HTNV Adeno-G(2), then the immune response to Adeno-G(2) was tested by ELISA, microcell-culture neutralizing experiment and lymphocyte proliferation test (MTT colorimetry).
Results:
IFA detection showed the expression of Adeno-G(2) in the infected Vero E6 cells. The titer of specific antibody was 1:40; The low-titer neutralization antibody was also detected. But the lymphocyte proliferation reaction was not notable.
Conclusion:
The HTNV Adeno-G(2) can stimulate BALB/c mice to develop specific humoral immune response instead of specific cell-mediated immunity. This study provides the experimental basis for the development of gene engineering vaccine of HFRS.
