Abstract:
Objective To screen the 12 mers-phage random peptide library using the serum from the new model rabbit and to identify the immuno-protection of the positive phages. The new model infected with Schistosoma japonicum was proved that has a high protection against the challenge infection. Methods After being absorbed by E.coli antibody, the serum of the new model rabbit was used to screen the peptide library. Through three rounds of biopaning and enriching, lots of positive phages were obtained and their antigenic ability was tested. Every mouse was immunized by subcutaneously injecting 1?10 14 pfu positive phages from the new model rabbit serum respectively at 0-2-4 th week. After 4 weeks of the last immunization, the challenge infection was performed. At the same time, several control groups including the group immunized with the phages from the rabbit serum of the normal model infected with Schistosoma japonicum, the group immunized with the original 12 mers-phage random peptide library and the control group of challenge infection were arranged. Results ①The positive clones of phage(1?10 14) from the new model rabbit serum were strongly recognized by the rabbit serum of the new model, weakly recognized by the rabbit serum of the normal model infected with Schistosoma japonicum,but not recognized by the serum of healthy rabbit. ②The reduction rate of adult worms and liver eggs induced by phages screened with the rabbit serum of the new model group and the nomal model group and that induced by the original peptide library were respectively 27 2% and 38 8 %, 17 8% and 35 0%, 4 5% and 6 0% Conclusion The new model group obtained a higher reduction rate of adult worms than the nomal model group (P
