Abstract

Ebola virus (EBOV) causes hemorrhagic fever in humans and nonhuman primates with up to 90% mortality rate. In this study, Ebola virus like particles (EVLPs) and the aglycosyl subfragment of glycoprotein (GP(1) subfragment D) were used to generate monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against different epitopes of the viral antigens. Such MAbs could be useful in diagnostics and potential therapeutics of viral infection and its hemorrhagic symptoms. Hybridoma cell fusion technology was used for production of MAbs. The MAbs were characterized using ELISA and Western blot analysis. Furthermore, five recombinant sub-domains of GP(1) subfragment D were produced, which were used as antigen in Western blot analysis for epitope mapping. Seventeen MAbs of different epitope specificities against EBOV antigens [virion protein (VP40), secreted glycoprotein (sGP), and GP(1) subfragment D] were developed. Based on epitope mapping studies, the anti-GP MAbs were categorized into six groups. The binding of the three anti-sGP MAbs with different epitope specificities were mostly between aa 157 and 221. The two anti-VP40 MAbs with the same or overlapping epitopes are potentially good candidates for developing antigen detection assays for early diagnosis of EBOV infection. The anti-GP MAbs with different epitope specificities as an oligoclonal cocktail could be tested for therapy.

摘要

埃博拉病毒(EBOV)可导致人类和非人类灵长类动物出现出血热,死亡率高达90%。在本研究中,埃博拉病毒样颗粒(EVLPs)和糖蛋白的无糖基化亚片段(GP(1)亚片段D)被用于产生针对病毒抗原不同表位的单克隆抗体(MAbs)。此类单克隆抗体可用于病毒感染及其出血症状的诊断和潜在治疗。采用杂交瘤细胞融合技术生产单克隆抗体。使用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)和蛋白质印迹分析对单克隆抗体进行表征。此外,制备了GP(1)亚片段D的五个重组亚结构域,将其用作蛋白质印迹分析中的抗原进行表位定位。针对埃博拉病毒抗原[病毒体蛋白(VP40)、分泌型糖蛋白(sGP)和GP(1)亚片段D]开发了17种具有不同表位特异性的单克隆抗体。基于表位定位研究,抗GP单克隆抗体被分为六组。三种具有不同表位特异性的抗sGP单克隆抗体的结合大多在第157至221个氨基酸之间。两种具有相同或重叠表位的抗VP40单克隆抗体可能是开发用于埃博拉病毒感染早期诊断的抗原检测试验的良好候选物。具有不同表位特异性的抗GP单克隆抗体作为寡克隆混合物可进行治疗测试。
