Description

Cytokine gene adjuvant for chicken coccidiosis live vaccine
Technical Field
The invention relates to an adjuvant for chicken coccidiosis live vaccines, in particular to an adjuvant matched with chicken coccidiosis live vaccines, and the adjuvant is a fusion gene recombinant plasmid constructed by fusion of chIL-2 and chIL-4 genes and has a synergistic effect on chicken coccidiosis live vaccines.
Background
Chicken coccidiosis is a very serious global parasitic disease caused by eimeria parasitism in chicken intestinal tracts. The chicken coccidiosis live vaccine is used for immunoprophylaxis and control of chicken coccidiosis, and has become the most promising safe, stable and efficient method for preventing and controlling the chicken coccidiosis.
However, the current live vaccine for chicken coccidiosis has slow immunoprotection, long immunoprotection idle period and easy infection and morbidity of chicken farm with severe coccidiosis pollution before immunity is generated. Meanwhile, adverse reactions of damaging intestinal mucosa can be generated during live vaccine immunization, so that the conversion rate of chicken feed is reduced, and the weight gain of the fast large broiler chickens is affected. This greatly limits its wide application in broilers, not to mention it is unfortunate.
The immune effect of the chicken coccidiosis live vaccine is positively correlated with the reduction of the chicken feed conversion rate, so that the immune effect of the chicken coccidiosis live vaccine can be improved while the chicken coccidiosis live vaccine inoculation dosage is reduced, and the chicken coccidiosis live vaccine is a key for solving the problem.
Cytokines (cytokines) are a class of proteins or small molecule polypeptides secreted by immune cells and other cells, with immunomodulatory and immunoadjuvant effects. Cytokines can activate and regulate immune cells in vivo, and play an adjuvant role by regulating or enhancing the immune effect of the vaccine through different action links. Cytokines have many advantages as immunoadjuvants: 1) The operation is simple, the preparation is easy, and the eukaryotic expression plasmid can be inserted for mass preparation; 2) The sustainability, the plasmid constructed by the cell factor can enable the factor to express for a long time in the animal body, thus achieving the effect of continuously enhancing the immune effect; 3) Rapidity, which can directly act on antigen presenting cells to rapidly perform immune reaction; 4) Is safe and nontoxic, and has no side effect to organism as immune effector in organism.
Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is one of the most widely used immunological adjuvants at present, and can promote the activation and proliferation of macrophages, natural killer cells, T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes. Under the action of IL-2, monocytes are converted into dendritic cells and combined with other cytokines, so that the movement of the dendritic cells and the aggregation of the dendritic cells in the lung and the skin are promoted, the antigen presenting capacity of the dendritic cells is enhanced, and the immune response is regulated. IL-2 also enhances CTL cell activity, promotes cell contact, induces cells to secrete cytokines, and also synergistically acts with other cytokines to induce proliferation of B lymphocytes to produce antibodies and differentiate memory cells. IL-2 as a new adjuvant can not only avoid adverse reactions of conventional adjuvants, but also remarkably improve the immune efficacy of viral, bacterial and parasitic vaccines, improve antibody levels, prolong the duration of antibodies, and reduce side effects of partial vaccines. Many domestic and foreign researches report that the IL-2 recombinant protein has an immune enhancement effect in chicken embryos and chicken bodies, can enhance the protective capability after vaccination and improve the resistance of organisms to coccidium. The recombinant chicken IL-2 protein can reduce coccidium infection pathological changes and oocyst yield and improve relative weight gain. IL-2 recombinant proteins act rapidly but not permanently, whereas IL-2 eukaryotic expression plasmids can maintain higher levels of immunity and a long-lasting immunization time.
Interleukin 4 (IL-4) was found by Howard in 1982 and successfully cloned in 1986. It is an immunocompetent regulator with multiple biological functions, and plays an important role in the immune process. IL-4 can promote B cell mediated IgE immune response, induce T cell proliferation to differentiate Th2 cells, enhance humoral immunity, inhibit secretion of macrophage IFN-gamma, stimulate proliferation of mast cells, activate macrophages and enhance antigen presenting ability of B cells. IL-4 has the effect of activating dendritic cells to present antigens.
IL-2 has been reported to have a broad effect of up-regulating immune response in immune networks, and can shorten the time for immune production and enhance immune function. IL-4 can enhance antigen presenting ability of macrophages, guide monocytes to differentiate toward DC, enhance antigen presenting ability, and shorten immune generation period.
The recombinant fusion protein is a new product with multifunctional fusion protein by combining cell factor and the coding gene of special functional protein by using genetic engineering and protein engineering technology. The fusion protein can play a synergistic effect by fusing the cytokine with the functional active domain of other molecules, so that the biological activity of the protein is greatly enhanced.
Recombinant fusion proteins can be classified into cytokine-antibody fusion proteins, cytokine-toxin fusion proteins, dual cytokine fusion proteins, cytokine and receptor fusion proteins, cytokine-other molecule fusion proteins, and the like, according to biological functions. The research of a plurality of domestic scholars discovers that the fusion protein co-expressed by two different cytokine genes can exert respective biological activities, has better immunoadjuvant effect, has very broad scientific significance and application prospect, opens up more new ways and brings new hopes for preventing and controlling animal diseases.
