experiment example 1

[0025] Experimental example 1 Anti-HIV infection activity experiment of fungal lectin AAL

[0026] Anti-HIV experiments include cytotoxicity experiments and anti-HIV replication experiments.

[0027] Cytotoxicity test (MTT assay): Culture C8166 cells (Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences) in 96-well plates (3×10 4 C8166 cells were treated with different concentrations (1.25nM, 6.25nM, 30nM, 150nM, 750nM) of fungal lectin AAL (SEQ ID No.2), each concentration repeated 3 wells, 37 ° C, 5% CO 2 After culturing for 4 days, the survival rate of the cells was detected by the MTT method. The concentration of drug that causes a 50% reduction in cells is the CC50.

[0028]HIV Replication Inhibition Assay: Parallel to the cytotoxicity assay, the HIV replication inhibition assay is detected by p24 antigen capture ELISA assay. C8166 cells inoculated with HIV-1 LAI (The virus comes from the Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences), MOI of the virus = 0.05...

experiment example 2

[0032] Experimental Example 2 Effect of fungal lectin AAL on virus replication

[0033] Infection of HIV-1 in C8166 cells LAI Fungal lectin AAL (SEQ ID No.2) was added at different times (0 hour, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 16 hours, 24 hours) after the virus, and the virus replication was detected according to the method in Experimental Example 1. The multiplicity of infection (MOI) of the inoculated virus was 0.05, the final drug concentration was 6.25nM, and the culture system was 300ul. Azidothymidine (AZT) was used as a positive control. See the experimental results figure 2 . The experimental results showed that the fungal lectin AAL had a similar inhibitory trend to the virus as AZT, but at the same concentration, the fungal lectin AAL had a better effect on inhibiting HIV replication than AZT.

experiment example 3

[0034] Experimental example 3 Inhibition of the fungal lectin AAL on the fusion of chronically infected cells and uninfected cells to form syncytia

[0035] In order to detect the inhibitory effect of fungal lectin AAL (SEQ ID No.2) on the formation of syncytia between chronically infected C8166 cells and uninfected C8166 cells, infected cells were mixed with different concentrations of AAL (SEQ ID No.2) (0.2nM, 1nM, 5nM, 25nM, 125nM, 625nM) for 1h, washed to remove excess AAL, and then added uninfected cells to the culture system, wherein the ratio of infected cells to uninfected cells was 1:8. After 36 hours of co-cultivation, the cells were observed and the syncytia were counted.

[0036] See the experimental results image 3 . From the experimental results, it can be seen that the fungal lectin AAL inhibits the formation of syncytia, and the EC50 is 1.73nM.

Abstract

The invention discloses application of agrocybe aegerita galactose agglutinin to the preparation of an anti-HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) infection medicament. As proved by a large quantity of experiments, a mycoagglutinin ALL (SEQIDNo.2) can effectively suppress the infection of HIV on C8166 cells, can specifically activate the activity of CD4<+>T lymphocytes without influencing CD8<+>T lymphocytes, has high activity on suppressing HIV infestation and stimulating the multiplication of CD4<+>T lymphocytes, can well meet the treatment indexes of reduction in the virus capacity and increase in CD4<+> cells during the treatment of HIV, and can be used for preventing and treating HIV. The invention further discloses an antibody specifically combined with the agrocybe aegerita galactose agglutinin and the application of a nucleotide for coding the agrocybe aegerita galactose agglutinin to the prevention or treatment of HIV infection.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a new pharmacological application of fungal lectin, in particular to the pharmacological application of galectin isolated from the fungus Agrocybe aegerita in the prevention or treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, belonging to The field of pharmacological application of poplar mushroom galectin. Background technique [0002] In the 25 years from the identification of HIV-1 to 2008, approximately 25 million people died of AIDS. According to the World Health Organization (World Health Organization) statistics in 2008, approximately 33.2 million people around the world are infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and it is estimated that 45 million new infections will appear between 2008 and 2010. On February 18, 2009, the Ministry of Health of China released a report on the AIDS epidemic. By the end of 2009, there were about 740,000 surviving HIV carriers and patients in China. In the first...
