To prepare a recombinant adeno-associated virus(rAAV9-ZsGreen1-EsASP)capable of expressing the aspartic protease protein of Eimeria stiedai(E.stiedai),and explore its in vitro ac-tivity.The EsASP gene was amplified by PCR,and recombinant adeno-associated viral vector pAAV-IRES-ZsGreen1 was combined with the EsASP gene using homologous recombination to construct the pAAV-ZsGreen1-EsASP expression plasmid;pAAV-ZsGreen1-EsASP expression plasmid,pHelper,and pAAV-RC9 plasmids were cotransfected into HEK-293T cells by liposomal transfection to package and produce recombinant adeno-associated virus rAAV9-ZsGreen1-EsASP capable of expressing EsASP protein.rAAV9-ZsGreen1-EsASP was purified using chloroform treatment-PEG/NaCl precipitation-chloroform extraction method,the purity of the virus was iden-tified by silver staining,the virus morphology was observed by TEM,and virus titer was detected by qRT-PCR;the purified recombinant virus was further infected into HEK-293T cells,and EsASP expression was detected by observing green fluorescent protein ZsGreen1 and Western blot method.The results indicated that double enzyme digestion and DNA sequencing confirmed that the EsASP gene had been successfully constructed into the pAAV-IRES-ZsGreen1 expression plas-mid.The expression of green fluorescent protein in HEK-293T cells suggested that co-transfection was successful.Western blot results of cell protein preparation showed that EsASP protein was successfully expressed;The purified recombinant viral capsid proteins show three distinct bands(VP1-3).The purified rAAV9-ZsGreen1-EsASP was uniform in size,around 20 nm,and had a titer higher than 1.0 × 1012 vg/mL;Green fluorescent protein expression was observed after infection of HEK-293T cells with the recombinant virus,and EsASP expression was detected by Western blot.The results suggest that rAAV9-ZsGreen1-EsASP with in vitro infectious activity was suc-cessfully obtained,providing a material basis for the development of a novel vaccine against Eimer-ia stiedai.

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) has a unique structure that makes monoclonal antibody (mAb) preparation challenging. This study aims to develop a method for preparing HbA1c mAbs and establish a fluorescent immunochromatographic assay (FICA) for rapid detection of HbA1c. Three glycosylated peptides were synthesized and used to prepare complete antigens, which were identified by dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Dot-ELISA) and ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. The complete antigens and natural HbA1c were used for cross-immunization of mice, and the optimal complete antigen was selected. The mouse with the highest serum titer was chosen for mAb preparation. The purity and specificity of the mAbs were verified, and a FICA method was developed. The optimal complete antigen, with a titer of 1:512 000, was successfully prepared and selected. Fusion with splenocytes resulted in four specific HbA1c antibodies (purity > 90%). The best antibody exhibited a binding constant (Ka) of 1.67×10¹⁰ L/mol with the antigen. Based on this antibody, a FICA method was successfully established, capable of producing results within 15 min. The method demonstrated a good linear range (3%-13% HbA1c, y=0.071 3x+0.005 6, R²=0.993 7), recovery rates of 98%-102%, precision < 10.00%, and no nonspecific reactions. Clinical testing of 210 samples showed positive agreement of 96.36%, negative agreement of 97.00%, and overall agreement of 96.68%. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis yielded an area under curve (AUC) of 0.980 9 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.961 0-1.000 0], with high consistency verified in multicenter studies. We successfully developed a key technique for preparing HbA1c monoclonal antibodies and established a FICA method for rapid detection of HbA1c. It will provide an efficient and convenient detection method for the early diagnosis and long-term management of diabetes and its complications.
