Objective To screen and identify the predominant T-and B-cell ( T-B) combined an-tigenic epitopes on the outer membrane protein Loa22 of pathogenic Leptospira interrogans ( L.interrogans) stains and to further analyze their immunogenicity.Methods PCR analysis was used to detect loa22 gene in L.interrogans strains belonging to eight different serogroups or serovars prevalent in China.The PCR prod-ucts were sequenced after T-A cloning.A prokaryotic expression system for loa22 gene of L.interrogans sero-group Icterohaemorrhagiae serovar Lai strain Lai was constructed.The expressed recombinant protein rLoa22 was extracted by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography.The rabbit anti-rLoa22 serum samples and IgG were pre-pared.The T-B combined antigenic epitopes on Loa22 protein were predicted by using professional bioinfor-matic softwares.Phage display in combination with Western blot assay and ELISA were performed to identify the immunogenicity of the recombinant phage PⅢ protein-displayed and artificially-synthesized T-B com-bined antigenic epitopes, respectively.MTS assay and ELISA were performed to detect the activation of T cells and the expression of IL-2, IL-4 and IFN-γinduced by T-B combined antigenic epitopes, respectively. Results All of the tested pathogenic Leptospira strains were positive for loa22 gene, sharing 85.5%-99.8%homologies in nucleotide sequences and 93.9%-99.5%homologies in amino acid sequences.The construc-ted prokaryotic expression system for loa22 gene efficiently expressed the rLoa22 protein.Among four T-B combined antigenic epitopes (Loa22-77, Loa22-90, Loa22-125 and Loa22-157), only Loa22-90 epitope presented a strong positive band in Western blot analysis.The proliferation of CD4+T cells and the expres-sion of IL-2 ( Th1 ) and IL-4 ( Th2 ) were significantly enhanced by the stimulation with Loa22-90 epitope peptide (P<0.05).Conclusion Loa22 protein is a sequence-conserved genus-specific outer membrane protein of L.interrogans.The Loa22-90 epitope is the predominant T-B combined antigenic epitope of Loa22 protein, which might be used as a candidate antigenic epitope in the development of multiple antigenic pep-tide ( MAP) vaccines against Leptospira infection.

Objective To establish an animal model of metabolic syndrome which is prone to atherosclerosis. Methods Eight rabbits were randomly selected from in total of 16 rabbits as control group who were fed with normal rabbit feed. And the rest were used as model group, who were fed with high fat diet. Animals were weigh every week, and triacylg-lycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and glucose (GLU) content were tested in the 8th, 10th , 13th, 16th and 18th week. Femoral arterial blood pressure and insu-lin (INS) content were assessed at the end of experimental period which is the 18th week;Also, aortic sclerosis rating, arterial stiffness index, abdominal fat coefficient, liver coefficient and cardiac coefficient were calculated and heart, aorta, liver and lower extremity artery pathology were examed. Results Compared with the control group, weight in the model group in-creased significantly;Serum levels of TC, HDL-C, blood pressure abdominal fat coefficient, liver coefficient were significant-ly increased in model group;the whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity and blood pressure fat coefficient, liver coefficient, aortic sclerosis rating, arterial stiffness index, and GLU all increased significantly in model group;while HDL-C/TCHO, in-sulin sensitivity index decreased significantly in model group(P < 0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion Food induced method can form metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis in rabbit model.
