Two recombinant rabies viruses overexpressing their glycoprotein (G) were compared in this study, with the overexpressed G inserted between P and M genes (named LBNSE-PM-G), and between the G and L genes (named LBNSE-GL-G), respectively. LBNSE-PM-G produced more G protein and induced stronger apoptosis than LBNSE-GL-G in infected cells, while the amount of virion-incorporated G in LBNSE-PM-G was less than in LBNSE-GL-G. Mice immunized with inactivated LBNSE-PM-G produced lower titers of virus-neutralizing antibody, and this recombinant conferred worse protection than LBNSE-GL-G. Our results suggest that over expressed G gene inserted between G and L, but not between P and M, enhanced the immunogenicity when used as an inactivated rabies vaccine.
在本研究中,对两种过表达其糖蛋白(G)的重组狂犬病病毒进行了比较,过表达的G分别插入到P基因和M基因之间(命名为LBNSE-PM-G)以及G基因和L基因之间(命名为LBNSE-GL-G)。在感染细胞中,LBNSE-PM-G比LBNSE-GL-G产生更多的G蛋白并诱导更强的细胞凋亡,而LBNSE-PM-G中病毒体结合的G量少于LBNSE-GL-G。用灭活的LBNSE-PM-G免疫的小鼠产生较低滴度的病毒中和抗体,并且这种重组体提供的保护比LBNSE-GL-G更差。我们的结果表明,插入到G基因和L基因之间而非P基因和M基因之间的过表达G基因,在用作灭活狂犬病疫苗时增强了免疫原性。
