Embodiment Construction

[0021] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The concentrations of candidate epitope peptides or irrelevant control peptides, IL-2, anti-CD28, anti-HLA-DR and anti-CD3 antibody (anti-CD3) mentioned in the examples all refer to their final concentrations in the mixture.

[0022] 1. Pan-restricted CD4 + Analysis of T cell epitope hotspots and synthesis of candidate epitope peptides

[0023] Obtain existing CD4 from the epitope database (http: / / www.immunepitope.org / ) +T cell epitopes, according to relevant literature reports and online software MHCPred (http: / / research.i2r.a-star.edu.sg / multipre / ) and SYFPEITHI (http: / / www.syfpeithi.de / ) to predict HBcAg Treg epitopes. Since HBeAg and HBcAg have a common sequence of 70%, HBeAg in serum can be regarded as the secreted type of HBcAg. Therefore, the present invention uses three peptides in the common sequence of HBeAg and HBcAg as candi...

Abstract

The invention discloses an HLA-DR9 restrictive regulatory T cell epitope of Hepatitis B virus core antigen and e antigen, which is composed of the following amino acid sequence: SRDLVVNYVNTNMGLKIRQLLWFHI. The invention also discloses an application of a regulatory T cell epitope in preparing hepatitis B therapeutic vaccine containing the Hepatitis B virus core antigen and e antigen, namely when the hepatitis B therapeutic vaccine containing the Hepatitis B virus core antigen and / or e antigen is prepared, the regulatory T cell epitope with immunosuppressive action in the Hepatitis B virus coreantigen and / or e antigen is eliminated. The invention provides a new strategy and a method for development of the high-efficient hepatitis B therapeutic vaccine, is expected to break hepatitis B immune tolerance, rebuilds cellular immune function and effectively inhibits and eliminates the hepatitis B virus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a regulatory T cell (Treg) epitope, in particular to the HLA-DR9 restricted Treg epitope of hepatitis B virus core antigen (HBcAg) and hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg), and also relates to the application of the Treg epitope . Background technique [0002] Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is widespread worldwide and poses a serious threat to human health. Anti-HBV specific immune response plays a decisive role in eliminating HBV from the body. Multiple studies report detection of active virus-specific CD4 in recoverers of acute HBV infection + and CD8 + T cell responses, whereas only weak virus-specific T cell responses were observed in patients with chronic HBV infection (CHB). CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Treg has been shown to suppress other CD4 + T cells and CD8 + The activation and proliferation of T cells play an important role in maintaining normal peripheral immune tolerance. Current studies have shown tha...
