摘要: Human adenovirus type 7 (HAdv-7) infection is the main cause of upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis and pneumonia in children. At present, there are no anti-adenovirus drugs or preventive vaccines in the market. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a safe and effective anti-adenovirus type 7 vaccine. In this study, we designed a virus-like particle vaccine expressing the epitopes of hexon and penton of adenovirus type 7 with hepatitis B core protein (HBc) as the vector to induce high-level humoral and cellular immune responses. To evaluate the effectiveness of the vaccine, we first detected the expression of molecular markers on the surface of antigen presenting cells and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in vitro. We then measured the levels of neutralizing antibodies and T cell activation in vivo. The results showed that the HAdv-7 virus-like particles (VLPs) recombinant subunit vaccine could activate the innate immune response, including the TLR4/NF-kappa B pathway which upregulated the expression of MHC II, CD80, CD86, CD40 and cytokines. The vaccine also triggered a strong neutralizing antibody and cellular immune response and activated T lymphocytes. Therefore, the HAdv-7 VLPs promoted humoral and cellular immune responses, thereby potentially enhancing protection against HAdv-7 infection.
