Objective To construct and express a chimeric gene with T-/B-cell epitopes of the major allergen group 1 from Dermatophagoides farina(Der f 1). Methods Two chimeric genes,Der f 1A and Der f 1B,were synthesized as B1-T1-B2-T2-B3-T3-B4-T4-B5-T5-B6 and B1-B2-B3-B4-B5-B6-T1-T2-T3-T4-T5 pattens. Two recombinant vectors,pET-28a(+)-Der f 1A and pET-28a(+)-Der f 1B,were constructed for prokaryotic expression. These chimeric genes were induced by 1 mmol/L IPTG (final concentration),digested with restriction enzymes and sequenced. The chimeric proteins were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Results After digestion by restriction enzymes and sequencing,the recombinant vectors were constructed successfully. The specific bands for chimeric proteins were visible by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting,suggesting that these proteins were purified successfully. Further analyses were performed for IgE-binding properties of Der f 1A and Der f 1B to sera from patients sensitized to house dust mite. Compared with the parental allergens Der f 1,Der f 1A and Der f 1B had reduced IgE-binding capacity(both P<0.05),whereas the difference between Der f 1A and Der f 1B was not statistically significant(P>0.05). Conclusion Two chimeric proteins are expressed successfully,which contain T-/B-cell epitopes of Der f 1 and provide a basis for specific immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the effect of immunotherapy of recombinant chimeric epitopes of major allergen group 1 from Dermatophagoides farina on asthma of mice. Methods Forty mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:a negative con?trol group,an asthma group,an immunotherapy group of Der f 1,and an immunotherapy group of Der f 1A. On the 1st,7th and 14th day,the mice in the asthma group,immunotherapy group of Der f 1,and immunotherapy group of Der f 1A were injected intraperitoneally with the extract of D. farina 3 times to sensitize;and on the 21st day,the atomized inhalation was carried out for 7 days. In the control group,phosphate buffer solution(PBS)was applied for sensitization and inhalation. In the immunother?apy groups,Der f 1 and Der f 1A were applied to carry out the specific immunotherapy respectively for 30 min before the inhala?tion. Then,the leukocytes in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were numbered and the pathological sections of lung tis?sues were observed;IL?5 and IFN?γin BALF and spleen cell culture supernatants(SCCS)as well as the specific IgE,IgG2a in the sera were detected. Results Compared with the asthma group,the lung inflammation of mice in the immunotherapy groups was lightened,and the total numbers of leukocytes in BALF were significantly reduced;IL?5 was significantly reduced and IFN?γwas significantly increased in BALF and SCCS of mice in the immunotherapy groups;and the specific IgE was significantly re?duced and IgG2a was significantly increased in the sera of mice in the immunotherapy groups(all P<0.01). Conclusion The recombinant chimeric epitopes of major allergen group 1 from D. farina could effectively relieve the symptom of asthma in mice, so as to provide the evidence for specific immunotherapy.
