    Objective To construct a chitosan(CS)-mediated DNA vaccine expressing nmpC or pagC genes of Salmonella paratyphi A and investigate its immune response. Methods The sequences of nmpC and pagC genes were optimized according to the codon-preference of mammals,and cloned into eukaryotic expression vector provax to construct DNA vaccines provax-nmpC and provax-pagC respectively. CS nanoparticles loaded with DNA were prepared by complex coacervation method and analyzed for speciality. BHK cells were transfected in vitro with DNA vaccines provax-nmpC and provax-pagC and the corresponding CS nanoparticles respectively,and determined for expressions of NmpC or PagC by Western blot. Mice were immunized with the recombinant proteins by electric shock,and determined for serum antibody level and types by ELISA. Results Restriction analysis proved that DNA vaccines provax-nmpC and provax-pagC were constructed correctly. The vaccines were bound to CS nanoparticles effectively. The obtained vaccine-loaded nanoparticles were spherical in even size,of which the encapsulation rate was more than 90%. CS prevented DNA from digestion with DNaseⅠ. Both provax-nmpC and CS/provax-nmpC induced effective immune response in mice,while the response levels showed no significant difference(P > 0. 05). Likely,both provax-pagC and CS/provax-pagC induced effective immune response. However,the antibody level induced by provax-pagC was significantly higher than that by CS/provax-pagC(P < 0. 05). The IgG1 and IgG2 a levels induced by provax-nmpC and provax-pagC were higher than those by the corresponding CS-based vaccines(P < 0. 05). However,no significant difference was observed in IgG1 and IgG2 a levels.Conclusion Both DNA vaccines provax-nmpC and provax-pagC induced effective immune response in mice. CS nanoparticles failed to enhance the effect or alter the type of immune response to DNA vaccine while regulated the balance between Th1 and Th2 responses.

Twenty STR loci from human cells were subjected to DNA typing,and the obtained STR profiles were compared with those in ATCC and DSMZ data banks. Results The genome of sample cells showed normal structure under high power microscope,without deletion or mutation. Of the 100 cells counted,84 with 46 chromosomes were observed. However, no chromatid, chromosome fragmentation or chromosome structural aberration were observed.Fourteen hypodiploid and two hyperdiploid cells were found. STR profiles were unambiguous and no triplicate peak was observed. No 100% matched cell lines were found in ATCC and DSMZ data banks. Conclusion The established human diploid cell KMB17 strain for vaccine production was identified as correct,of which the structure and number of chromosomes were normal,and no contamination or cross-contamination was found.

    Objective To optimize the key parameters in refolding process of recombinant soluble human tumor necrosis factor a receptorⅠ(sTNFα RⅠ)by Design of Experiment(DoE). Methods Two key technological parameters in refolding process,free sulfhydryl concentration(C-SH) and protein concentration(C-Pro),were optimized by using the Central Composite Quadratic Model established by Central Composite Design in DoE software. Two response values,the yield of sTNFαRⅠof each gram of wet bacteria and refolding volume(V_(-10g))for preparation of 10 g of sTNFαRⅠ,were set. The experimental data of model were evaluated by using DoE software. Under the premise of the highest yield of sTNFα RⅠand the minimum V_(-10g),the optimal refolding parameter values were predicted by response surface of quadratic model.The optimization results were validated by two scaled-up experiments. Results The center points of response surface of quadratic model established by 14 groups of tests of two Blocks at 2 factors and 5 levels showed high reproducibility,and the test points were showed a normal distribution. In regression analysis of response values for quadratic response surface model fitting,the lack of fit P values using sTNFα RⅠand V_(-10g)as response values were more than 0. 05,indicating that the lack of fit was insignificant. The predicted values are closed to the actual values,indicating high goodness of fit.Adeq Precisior values were more than 4,indicating that the model was effective and could be used to navigate the design space of optimization of refolding process parameters. The results showed that the yield of sTNFα RⅠwas 16. 38 mg/g and the V_(-10g) was 36. 73 L when the C_(-Pro) was 0. 48 mg/m L and the C_(-SH) was 8. 69 mmol/L in refolding process and the highest desirability of model was 0. 643. However,in validation by two scale-up experiments,the yields of sTNFα R Ⅰwere 11. 34 and 9. 72 mg/g respectively,which were higher than that before optimization(5. 1 mg/g in average).Conclusion The Central Composite Model may be used for screening of the parameters in refolding process of sTNFα RⅠ,which provides reliable data support for the subsequent scale-up of process.

  • Advances in study of acute phase protein as a marker for diagnosis of animal stress

    YUAN Jian-bin;ZHENG Shu-sen;YANG Huan-min;GUO jing-ru;College of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine,Heilongjiang Bayi Agricultural University;

    Stimulation by various stressors may induce non-specific defense response,which is known as acute phase response. Acute phase protein is mainly synthesized by hepatocytes,which may alter the expression of inflammatory responses to tissue damage,infection and stress,and is closely related to the static changes of environment and the antistress ability in stress response of animals. Therefore,it is necessary to explore the changes of acute phase protein in livestock and poultry stress-related diseases. In this paper,the classification of several major acute phase proteins and the change and detection of acute phase protein expression in animal stress are reviewed.
