To isolate specific nanobodies to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) non-structural protein 4 (Nsp4) and investigate their potential antiviral activities.
Three PRRSV Nsp4-specific nanobodies were isolated from a phage display library of the variable domains of camelid heavy chain-only antibodies. Nanobody genes were introduced into MARC-145 cells using lentivirus vectors to establish cell lines stably expressing nanobodies. These intracellularly expressed nanobodies were tested for interaction with PRRSV-encoded Nsp4 within PRRSV-infected MARC-145 cells. Nb41 and Nb43 intrabodies each potently inhibited PRRSV replication, protected MARC-145 cells from PRRSV-induced cytopathic effect and fully blocked PRRSV replication at an MOI of 0.001 or lower.
Intracellularly expressed Nb41 and Nb43 potently suppressed PRRSV replication in MARC-145 cells. Nanobodies hold great potential for development as novel antiviral treatments for PRRSV infection.
分离针对猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(PRRSV)非结构蛋白4(Nsp4)的特异性纳米抗体,并研究其潜在的抗病毒活性。
从骆驼科仅重链抗体可变区的噬菌体展示文库中分离出三种PRRSV Nsp4特异性纳米抗体。使用慢病毒载体将纳米抗体基因导入MARC-145细胞,以建立稳定表达纳米抗体的细胞系。检测这些细胞内表达的纳米抗体与PRRSV感染的MARC-145细胞中PRRSV编码的Nsp4的相互作用。Nb41和Nb43细胞内抗体均有效抑制PRRSV复制,保护MARC-145细胞免受PRRSV诱导的细胞病变效应,并在感染复数(MOI)为0.001或更低时完全阻断PRRSV复制。
细胞内表达的Nb41和Nb43有效抑制MARC-145细胞中的PRRSV复制。纳米抗体作为PRRSV感染的新型抗病毒治疗药物具有巨大的开发潜力。
