چکیده

introduction: hepatitis c virus (hcv) infection is a major public health problem which influences about 170 million people worldwide. different types of vaccines have been designed using hcv structural proteins to control the viral infection. the core nucleocapsid protein is one of the most conserved proteins and a desirable target for hcv vaccines, especially the protein-based vaccines. in current study, we generated the core protein recombinantly in prokaryotic (escherichia coli) and eukaryotic (leishmania tarentolae) expression systems and compared the humoral immune responses stimulated by each protein in a balb/c mice model. methods: the expression of hcv core protein was performed using the prokaryotic pet-28a/ bl21 expression system and also the eukaryotic lexsy expression system. the recombinant core proteins expressed in e. coli and leishmania were purified using reverse staining method and affinity chromatography under native conditions, respectively. the purified core proteins were detected by sds-page and western blotting using anti-his antibody and were assessed by nanodrop spectrophotometer. finally, the abilities of both recombinant core proteins to induce the effective humoral immune responses were evaluated using indirect elisa. results: our data indicated a clear band of ~ 21 kda for the purified hcv core proteins in both expression systems, confirmed by sds-page and western blotting. the mice immunization with both recombinant core proteins was able to produce high levels of antibody isotypes (igg1 and igg2a) in comparison with the controls (p < 0.05). in addition, the level of igg2a response was significantly higher in the group immunized with the core protein purified from leishmania compared to the protein generated from e. coli (p < 0.05). conclusion: the recombinant core protein generated by the leishmania expression system could induce a th1-biased immune response with respect to the increase of igg2a to igg1 ratio.

Enhanced Immune Responses of a Hepatitis C Virus core DNA Vaccine by co-Inoculating Interleukin-12 Expressing Vector in Mice

Background: Hepatitis C (HCV) is a worldwide problem without an effective vaccine with more than 170 million chronically infected people worldwide. DNA vaccines expressing antigenic portions of the virus with adjutants have recently been developed as a novel vaccination technology. Objectives: In the present study, a DNA vaccine expressing HCV core protein was developed with IL12 as a genetic a...

Expression and Purification of HCV Core and Core-E1E2 Proteins in Different Bacterial Strains

Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a main public health problem causing chronic liver infection and subsequently liver cirrhosis and lethal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Vaccination based on HCV capsid proteins has attracted a special interest for prevention of viral infections. The core protein is a basic and evolutionary most conserved protein, which regulates the cellular processes rel...

بر اساس نظریه افلاطون در باره شعر خلاقیت هنری مورد انتقاد قرار گرفته است. نظریه کلی در مورد شعر این بود که شعر از ظواهرتقلید میکند و نه حقیقت. چون سایه ای از حقیقت است. اما با پیدایش فلسفه نو افلاطونی، انتقاتات قبلی در مورد شعر و شاعری اصلاح شد. فلوطین در کتاب انئید، اساس خلق هنری را بر محور مُثل افلاطونی قرار داد. وی باور داشت که هنر مندان در خلق آثار هنری، تحت تاثیر مُثل افلاطونی بوده و عوالمی ...

enhancement of immune responses by co-delivery of ccl19/mip-3beta chemokine plasmid with hcv core dna/protein immunization

conclusions these results exhibited the immuno potentiator effects of mip-3beta plasmid when coadministrated with the hcv core dna vaccine. complimentary studies integrating mip-3beta as a genetic adjuvant in hcv-core-dna vaccination models are warranted. results mice covaccinated with mip-3beta elicited an enhanced th1 biased systemic immune response as evidenced by higher ifn-γ/il-4 and anti-...
