4.Screening and optimization of method for removing free polysaccharides from type 9V pneumococcal polysaccharide-protein conjugate
Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2024;37(5):593-597
Objective To screen an effective method for removing free polysaccharides in polysaccharide-protein conjugate of pneumococcus type 9V(Pn9V),and to optimize the process and verify its stability,so as to use it in the preparation of multivalent conjugate vaccine against pneumococcus.Methods Pn9V-CRM_(197) conjugate was prepared,of which the free polysaccharides were removed by molecular sieve(Sepharose 4FF),ion exchange chromatography(DEAE Sepharose FF),hydrophobic chromatography(GP-Butyl)and ammonium sulfate(AS)salting out. The optimal method was selected by comparing the percentage of free polysaccharides,the recovery rate of polysaccharides and the recovery rate of proteins,and the determined method was optimized for the process. Three batches of conjugates were prepared continuously to verify the stability of the process.Results Both hydrophobic chromatography and ion exchange chromatography reduced the free polysaccharides in Pn9V-CRM197 conjugate to less than 5%. The recovery rates of polysaccharide and protein by hydrophobic chromatography were 34. 7% and 50. 1%,respectively,which were higher than those by ion exchange chromatography(16. 2% and 25. 7%). Hydrophobic chromatography was determined with the optimized process including 1. 1 mol/L AS as the loading buffer,water for injection used for elution,and the conjugate loading of 1. 81 mg protein/mL filler. The free polysaccharide removal rate,polysaccharide recovery rate and protein recovery rate of the conjugates prepared continuously in three batches were good,and the consistency among batches was high. The conjugates had good stability when stored at 2-8 ℃ for 6 months,and the percentage of free polysaccharides increased significantly(F = 5. 83 e~(-32),P = 0. 003)and was more than25% when stored at(25 ± 2)℃ for 6 months,indicating that high temperature storage was not suitable for the conjugates.Conclusion A hydrophobic chromatography process was established to effectively remove free polysaccharides from Pn9V polysaccharide-protein conjugate,which has good stability and provides a reference for the removal of free polysaccharides in other pneumococcal polysaccharide-protein conjugates.
5.亚甲蓝光化学法病毒灭活血浆外泌体微小RNA差异表达谱分析
Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2024;37(07):817-823
Objective To explore the effect of methylene blue photochemistry(MB-P)viral inactivation treatment on the expression of microRNA(miRNA)in plasma exosomes,in order to provide a new reference for the quality control of MB-P virus inactivated plasma. Methods Whole blood samples of 11 healthy volunteers were collected from July 2021 to April2022. Fresh plasma from the same person was prepared into two parts,fresh frozen plasma(FFP)and MB-P virus inactivated plasma,respectively. The plasma exosomes were isolated by differential centrifugation,and identified by transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA). Then the expression profiles of miRNA were detected by microarray technique. Furthermore,four differentially expressed miRNA were verified by qRT-PCR,the target genes of differentially expressed miRNA were predicted by bioinformatics methods,and GO function enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the differentially expressed genes. Results The morphological characteristics and diameters of the extracted vesicles of the two groups were consistent with the characteristics of exosomes. Compared with the control group,there were 14 differentially expressed miRNA in plasma exosomes of MB-P group,of which the expression of six miRNA was up-regulated and eight miRNA was down-regulated. The results of qRT-PCR were generally consistent with the expression trend of microarray. The target genes of differentially expressed miRNA were mainly involved in DNA binding,ion binding,catalytic activity and other functions,and participated in a variety of biological processes such as nucleic acid metabolism,biosynthesis,and transcription regulation. In addition,significantly enriched functional pathways were closely related to viral infectious diseases,tumors,PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,MAPK signaling pathway and so on.Conclusion The expression of exosome miRNA in MB-P virus inactivated plasma was different from that in FFP. The plasma exosome miRNA may be used as a potential reference for the quality evaluation of MB-P virus inactivated plasma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis and progressing stroke.Methods103 patients with acute cerebral infarction within the first 24 hours from onset were tested with carotid color doppler ultrasonography during the first week from admission. Univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to examine the relationship between carotid intima media thickness (IMT), plaque structure, the degree of artery stenosis and the early deterioration of cerebral infarction.ResultsPrevalence of carotid plaque and thickness of IMT in patients with progressing stroke were higher than that in non progressing patients. In logistic regression, presence of carotid plaque was independent predictors of progressing stroke. Plaque size, extent of artery stenosis and IMT were not included in the regression model.ConclusionPlaque structure and its chemical feature may be the cause of progressing stroke.
