ABSTRACT

We developed a method for accurate quantification of the intact virus particles in inactivated avian influenza virus feedstocks. To address the problem of impurities interference in the detection of inactivated avian influenza virus feedstocks by direct high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), we firstly investigated polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation and ion exchange chromatography (IEC) for H5N8 antigen purification. Under the optimized conditions, the removal rate of impurity was 86.87% in IEC using DEAE FF, and the viral hemagglutination recovery was 100%. HPSEC was used to analyze the pretreated samples. The peak of 8.5-10.0 min, which was the characteristic adsorption of intact virus, was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and dynamic light scattering. It was almost free of impurities and the particle size was uniform with an average particle size of 127.7 nm. After adding antibody to the IEC pretreated samples for HPSEC detection, the characteristic peak disappeared, indicating that IEC pretreatment effectively removed the impurities. By coupling HPSEC with multi-angle laser scattering technique (MALLS), the amount of intact virus particles in the sample could be accurately quantified with a good linear relationship between the number of virus particles and the chromatographic peak area (R2=0.997). The established IEC pretreatment-HPSEC-MALLS assay was applied to accurate detection of the number of intact virus particles in viral feedstocks of different subtypes (H7N9), different batches and different concentrations, all with good applicability and reproducibility, Relative standard deviation < 5%, n=3.

ABSTRACT

Immunotherapy is becoming an effective and less invasive strategy that can be applied to the treatment of various malignancies. Lentiviral vectors (LVs) have shown great potential in immunotherapy as they can stably integrate relatively large foreign DNA, and effectively transduce dividing and non-dividing cells. Clinical application needs high quality LVs, and therefore strict quality control of the final products is necessary to ensure their purity, efficacy and safety. The quantitative detection of LVs is among the key parts of product development and quality control. In this paper, the existing methods for quantitative detection of LVs are summarized, including fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS), P24 enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (P24 ELISA), real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), tunable resistive pulse sensing(TRPS) and virus counter(VC).Their advantages and disadvantages are listed, and future development and challenges are discussed.

ABSTRACT

We developed a pre-treatment method to remove interfering substances during quantification of 146S antigens in foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines by high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). Three methods, including ultracentrifugation, PEG precipitation and nuclease digestion, were optimized and compared for removal efficiency of the interfering impurities in FMD vaccines. Under optimized conditions, the 146S contents in two batches of FMD vaccines were determined to be 7.1 and 7.6 μg/mL by ultracentrifugation, 9.7 and 10.4 μg/mL by PEG precipitation, and 10.5 and 10.4 μg/mL by nuclease digestion. The optimal condition for nuclease digestion using Benzonase determined by response surface method was as follows: appending Benzonase into 200 μL of antigen phase to a final concentration of 421 U/mL and incubating at 25.1 °C for 1.29 h. This method has advantages including efficient removal of the interfering impurities, fast processing speed, and mild operating conditions. Then 12 bathes of FMD vaccines with different serotypes produced by 4 manufacturers were tested to verify the established treatment method. Results showed the method was applicable to various FMD vaccines with good reproducibility (RSD<5.3%, n=3). The developed method removed interference from impurities during quantification of 146S, and therefore would broaden the application of HPSEC in vaccine quality control and ensure the accuracy and reliability.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study is to quantify the 146S antigen in foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) inactivated vaccine by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). The analysis was performed on a TSKgel G4000SWXL column (7.8 mm×30 cm), with a pH 7.2 buffer salt system as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 0.6 mL/min, the injection volume was 100 μL and the detection wavelength was 259 nm. The calibration curve was established by using purified inactivated FMDV (serotype O) 146S antigen; 3 batches of vaccine formulated by inactivated antigen solution were tested to verify the accuracy, reproducibility, specificity and tolerability of the method. At last 16 batches of vaccine were determined by the SEC method. Results showed a good linearity between peak area and concentration of 146S antigen in the range between 0.56 and 67.42 μg/mL (R2=0.996, n=10), and the average recovery rate of 146S antigen in the 3 batches of vaccine formulated in lab were 93.6% (RSD=2.7%, n=3), 102.3% (RSD=2.6%, n=3), and 95.5% (RSD=5.1%, n=3). The method was proved accurate and reliable with good reproducibility (RSD=0.5%, n=6), and applied to determine 16 batches of the commercial FMDV vaccine. According to the above results, the SEC method is high effective for 146S antigen quantify in the inactivated FMDV vaccine and would provide strong support for the vaccine quality control.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of T lymphocytes and activated subsets in patients with HIV/AIDS and early latent syphilis. MethodsT lymphocytes and activated subsets ( HLADR+ CD3 +/CD3 + , HLA-DR+ CD4 +/CD4 + and HLA-DR+ CD8 +/CD8 + ) as well as rapid plasma reagin (RPR) and treponema pallidum particle agglutination (TPPA) test were detected by flow cytometry in 78 patients with HIV/AIDS, 66 patients with HIV/AIDS and early latent syphilis, and 30 healthy subjects. SPSS 13.0 was used for statistical analysis, and t (for normal distribution) or Mann-Whitney U (for skew distribution) tests were performed to compare between the groups. ResultsThe absolute counts of CD4+ T cells in patients with HIV/AIDS and early latent syphilis were significantly higher than those in HIV/AIDS patients ( t = 2. 041 and 2. 223, P < 0.05 ), but no difference in the counts of CD3 + T cells and CD8 + T cells was observed (tcD3 =0. 362 and 0.692, tcD8 =0.043 and 0.617, P>0.05). HLA-DR+ CD4 +/CD4 +level in AIDS plus syphilis group was much higher than that in HIV plus syphilis group ( t = 2. 647, P < 0. 05 ), but no difference was observed in HLA-DR+ CD3 +/CD3 + and HLA-DR+ CDs +/CDs + ( t = 1. 112 and 0. 093, P > 0.05). ConclusionsImmune function in patients with HIV/AIDS and early latent syphilis may be enhanced temporarily.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation of T-lymphocyte expressing HLA-DR with serum HBV DNA and HBeAg contents in chronic hepatitis B. Methods Totally 134 chronic hepatitis B patients and 36 healthy blood donors were enrolled in the study. The T-lymphocytes (CD3 + HLA-DR + ,CD4 + HLA-DR+ and CD8 + HLA-DR+ T) expressing HLA-DR were detected by flow cytometry, the serum HBV viral loads were detected by the real-time quantitative PCR and HBeAg was detected by chemiluminescence method. According to serum HBV DNA viral loads patients were defined as HBV DNA negative (≤ 103 copies/mL), low (> 103 - 105 copies/mL), medium (> 105 - 107 copies/mL) and high groups (> 107 - 109 copies/mL) ; according to serum HBeAg levels, patients were defined as HBeAg negative (≤1 PEIU/mL), low (> 1 - 100 PEIU/mL), medium (> 100-1 000 PEIU/mL) and high groups (> 1 000-10 000 PEIU/mL). T test and one-way ANOVA were performed. Results With HBV DNA loads, HBeAg levels increased, the percentage of CD3 + HLA-DR + , CD4 + HLA-DR + and CD8 + HLA-DR +decreased, especially CD8 + HLA-DR +. Compared with HBV DNA negative group, the percentages of CD3 +HLA-DR + , CD4 + HLA-DR + and CD8 + HLA-DR + were significantly reduced in high group (t = 3. 686,4. 592 and 3. 216, P < 0. 0l); the percentages of CD4 + HLA-DR + and CD8 + HLA-DR + were also reduced in medium group (t = 3. 761 and 2.862, P < 0.01); while in low group, only the percentage of CD8 + HLA-DR + was reduced (t = 2.215, P < 0.05). Compared with HBeAg negative group, the percentages of CD3 +HLA-DR+, CD4 + HLA-DR+ and CD8 + HLA-DR+ were significantly reduced in medium and high groups (thigher =3. 144, 2.222 and 4.035; tmiddle =3.311, 2.362 and 3.374, P <0.05), while in the low group,only the percentage of CD8+HLA-DR+ was reduced (t=2.029, P<0. 05). Conclusion The combined measurement of HBV DNA, HBeAg and T-lymphocytes expressing HLA-DR in chronic hepatitis B patients may not only help to evaluate the immune status of patients, but also can predict the disease progression and clinical outcomes.
