As an effort to identify other vaccine candidates, this study was initiated to evaluate protective efficacy of adenylate kinase (AK), nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NdK), and heat shock protein 7 (Hsp7) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Method : M. tuberculosis genes encoding AK, NdK, and Hsp7 proteins were amplified by PCR and cloned into E. coli expression vector, pqe3. Recombinant AK, NdK, and Hsp7 was purified through Ni-NTA resin. To evaluate immune responses, we performed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for IgG isotype and IFN-γ after mice were immunized subcutaneously with recombinant proteins delivered in dimethyl dioctadecylammonium bromide (DDA). Immunized- and control groups were challenged by aerosol with M. tuberculosis. The spleens and lungs of mice were removed aseptically and cultured for CFU of M. tuberculosis. Result : Vaccination with recombinant proteins AK, NdK, and Hsp7 delivered in DDA elicited significant level of antibody and IFN-γ responses to corresponding antigens but no protective immunity comparable to that achieved with Mycobacterium bovis. Conclusion : Recombinant proteins AK, NdK, and Hsp7 do not effectively control growth of M. tuberculosis in mice when immunized with DDA as an adjuvant.

Lindbland 등은 C57BL/6J 마우스모델로결핵균 CFP와여러면역보강제를이용한백신실험에서 DDA를주사한마우스에서강한 IgGa 반응이나타나 Th 세포를자극한다고보고하였으나 8, 이전의보고에서는항원농도가높음에따라 IgG 의생성이두드러지게나타나 Th 세포를자극한다고보고하였다 9. Martin 은 C57BL/6 마우스모델을이용한백신실험에서 IgGa 생성능을조사하는점에대해서문제제기를하였는데 Igh-b allele 를포함한마우스 (C57BL /6, C57BL/, SJL등 ) 들은 IgGa의유전자가제거되어있고상품화된 anti-igga 혈청과반응을하지않는 IgGc isotype 을발현하기때문에 IgGa 생성능을측정하는것은불가능하다고보고하였다. 이러한내용을기초로, 본실험에서도 IgGb 항체생성능을측정하였으나오히려 IgGa 항체생성능에비해낮게나타내었다. IFN-γ 생성능의결과에서는재조합단백질들을면역주사한마우스에서각항원에대한 IFN-γ 생성이 48
Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases Vol. 58. No., Feb, 5 대조군과비교하여증가되었으나결핵균 CFP에대해서는 IFN-γ 생성이낮게나타나이들재조합단백질과 DDA 를이용한면역반응은세포성면역반응이아닌체액성면역반응으로일어나는것으로확인하였다. 면역효과를증가시키기위하여면역보강제 (adjuvant) 로세포성면역반응을유도하고낮은독성을지닌 DDA (dimethyl dioctadecylammonium bromide) 를선택하였다. 이면역보강제는결핵균의단백질백신연구에이용되고있으며 4,8,9,, 여러면역보강제와결핵균항원을이용한백신실험에서인체내에주로이용되는 Alum에비해결핵균에대한방어면역효능이높은것으로나타났다. 그러나본실험에서는결핵균에대한방어면역효능을나타내지못하였다. 이러한결과는백신후보물질로서의단일항원의면역원능과그에따른면역보강제의선택에따른것으로판단된다. 면역보강제의선정을목적으로한실험들에서는결핵균 CFP와 DDA를이용하여면역주사한마우스에서결핵균에대한방어면역효능을나타내었다 8,9. 그러나동일한면역보강제와단일항원을이용한백신실험에서는단백질의종류에따라상이한결과를나타내었는데, 항원 85B를이용한실험에서는결핵균에대한방어면역효능을나타낸반면, 항원 ESAT-6 를이용한실험에서는방어면역효능을나타내지못하였다. Brandt 등은항원 ESAT-6 의약한면역원능에대한보완책으로 DDA와 Th 면역반응을유도하는다른면역보강제를첨가함으로써방어면역효능을나타내었다 4. 결핵균 AK와 NdK는현재까지구조적특성및대사적기능에대한연구보고가있으며, 아직까지면역학적항원성에대한연구보고는없는실정이다. 최근에는재조합단백질 NdK와 ATP를대식세포에처리하였을때대식세포의사멸이유도된다는보고가있어병원성세균의감염경로등에중요한역할을할것으로예측되고있다 8. 결핵균 Hsp7은 proteomics 의발달에따라결핵균항원후보물질로서거론되어왔으며, Hsp7을과발현하는결핵균은 in vivo상에서생존율이감소하는것으로나타나면역반응에영향을미치는것으로보고되었다. 최근에는 Hsp7 등 Heat shock protein의항원 제시 (antigen-presentation) 기능이부각되면서감염된생체내에서분리한 Hsp-peptide 복합체를면역주사한뒤, 결핵균을감염시킨결과에서결핵균에대한방어면역효능을나타낸보고가있다 3. 본실험에서도재조합단백질 Hsp7을면역주사한마우스의폐에서결핵균에대한방어면역효능이 를면역주사한마우스와유사한결과를나타내었다. 이는 Hsp7의단일항원으로서의면역원능보다는다른기능에의한결과로판단된다. 현재재조합단백질백신연구는복합항원과복합면역보강제를이용한방법 4,, 새로운면역보강제의효능비교 4, 접종경로의다양화 5 및 cytokine 의첨가방법 6 등을이용한결핵균에대한방어면역효능을실시하고있다. 본실험에사용한재조합단백질들과 DDA를이용한면역효과는세포성면역반응이아닌체액성면역반응을유도함으로인해결핵균에대한방어면역효능을나타내지않았으므로, 단일항원으로서의면역원능이없거나혹은취약한것으로판단되었다. 따라서혼합단백질혹은다른 T세포면역보강제의사용에의한추시가필요하다. 요약배경 : 최근결핵에대한새로운백신개발은초회면역방법및추가면역방법을이용하는방향으로연구되고있다. 본실험은새로운백신후보물질로서의가능성을알아보기위하여결핵균 adenylate kinase (AK), nu cleoside diphosphate (NdK) 및 heat shock protein 7 (Hsp7) 의결핵균에대한방어면역효능을측정하였다. 방법 : 재조합단백질들을정제하기위하여중합효소연쇄반응으로증폭한결핵균유전자단편들을 E.coli expression vector, pqe3에클로닝한후, Ni-NTA resin을이용하여정제하였다. DDA와재조합단백질들을마우스에면역주사하고면역반응생성유무를확인하기위하여항체와 IFN-γ 생성능을측정하였다. 면역주사한마우스에결핵균을공기감염시킨후, 폐 49
SH Lee, et al.: Protective efficacy of recombinant proteins AK, NdK, and Hsp7 against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in mice 와비장을분리하여결핵균생균수실험을하였다. 결과 : 재조합단백질 AK, NdK 와 Hsp7을면역보강제인 DDA를이용하여면역주사한결과에서, 생리식염수혹은 DDA를면역주사한마우스에비교하여재조합단백질을면역주사한마우스에서는각항원에대해항체와 IFN-γ 생성능이높게나타났으나결핵균에대한효과적인방어면역효능은나타나지않았다. 결론 : 마우스를모델로한결핵균에대한방어면역효능실험에서, 면역보강제 DDA를이용한재조합단백질 AK, NdK 및 Hsp7 을면역주사한경우에는결핵균의성장을효과적으로조절하지못하였다. 혼합단백질혹은다른 T세포면역보강제의사용에의한추시가필요하다. 참고문헌.
