摘要:

目的 探讨豚鼠结膜炎衣原体(GPIC)噬菌体衣壳蛋白Vp1对GPIC及E型沙眼衣原体的抑制作用,为沙眼衣原体感染的治疗提供新的思路。 方法 用Vp1-pET30a(+)重组质粒菌表达Vp1蛋白,Western印迹法鉴定蛋白,透析袋纯化蛋白,BCA法测定蛋白浓度,将GPIC、E型沙眼衣原体分别与Vp1蛋白、Tris甘氨酸溶液、S蛋白及培养液室温孵育3 h,衣原体培养过程中分别 加入相同浓度的上述液体,72 h或48 h后,免疫荧光计数包涵体数。 结果 GPIC在Vp1蛋白组、Tris甘氨酸溶液组、S蛋白组及培养液组培养72 h,包涵体计数分别为5.0 ± 1.5、24 ± 1.2、25 ± 1.7及25 ± 1.5,各组包涵体数比较,差异有统计学意义(F = 476.632,P < 0.05)。Vp1蛋白组GPIC包涵体数显著低于Tris甘氨酸溶液组、S蛋白组及培养液组(P < 0.05),而后3组之间差异无统计学意义(P > 0.05)。与阴性对照组(培养液组)相比,Vp1蛋白对GPIC的抑制率为(80.2 ± 3.99)%。此外,Vp1蛋白对E型沙眼衣原体的抑制率为(77.2 ± 1.79)%,t检验示Vp1对GPIC的作用与对E型沙眼衣原体的作用差异无统计学意义(t = 2.057,P > 0.05)。 结论 Vp1蛋白可明显抑制GPIC的感染,同时对E型沙眼衣原体有相似的抑制作用。

Methods The Chlamydiaphage phiCPG1 capsid protein Vp1 was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 transfected with the recombinant plasmid Vp1-pET30a (+), identified by Western blot analysis and purified by using dialysis bags. Bicinchonininc acid (BCA) assay was performed to determine the concentration of Vp1 protein. GPIC and Ct serovar E strains were both classified into 4 groups to be firstly incubated with Vp1 protein (Vp1 group), Tris-glycine solution (Tris group), S protein (S group) or Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM, DMEM group) at room temperature for 3 hours, then were used to infect Hela cells followed by 72-hour (GPIC) or 48-hour (Ct serovar E) culture with the presence of Vp1 protein (Vp1 group), Tris-glycine solution (Tris group), S protein (S group) or DMEM (DMEM group). Subsequently, immunofluorescence staining was conducted to observe and count chlamydial inclusions. Results The number of GPIC inclusions was significantly different between the 4 groups after 72-hour culture (F = 476.632, P < 0.05), and lower in the Vp1 group (5.0 ± 1.5) than in the Tris group (24 ± 1.2, P < 0.05), S group (25 ± 1.7, P < 0.05) and DMEM group (25 ± 1.5, P < 0.05), but insignificantly different between the latter 3 groups (P > 0.05). Compared with the DMEM group, the Vp1 group showed a significant decrease of 80.2% ± 3.99% and 77.2% ± 1.79% in the number of GPIC and Ct serovar E inclusions respectively, with no significant difference in the inhibitory effect of Vp1 on GPIC versus Ct serovar E (t = 2.057, P > 0.05). Conclusion The phiCPG1 capsid protein Vp1 can obviously inhibit GPIC and Ct serovar E infections to a similar degree.
