Abstract

Pasteurella multocida is one of the important animal pathogen causing widespread infections in various domestic animals. In swine, it causes severe respiratory diseases such as atrophic rhinitis and pneumonic pasteurellosis. To develop the efficient subunit vaccine against swine atrophic rhinitis, we investigated protective antibodies and humoral immunity of outer membrane protein H (OmpH) which is one of the major outer membrane proteins in P. multocida. Outer membrane fraction of P. multocida was immunologically detectable using antisera from both mice groups vaccinated by formalin-killed whole cells and by commercial vaccine. The expression vector for production of recombinant OmpH was constructed and the recombinant OmpH was expressed and purified from E. coli. Recombinant OmpH showed high antigenic and immunogenic properties in mice vaccination and ELISA with antisera.

Pasteurella multocida는 돼지에서 위축성 비염, 폐렴을 비롯한 다양한 호흡기 질환을 일으키는 병원균이다. 본 연구에서는 돼지 위축성 비염에 대한 효과적인 순수정제 백신을 개발하고자 하는 기초 연구로서 P. multocida의 외막 단백질 H에 의해 유도되는 방어적 항체와 면역을 확인하였다. P. multocida의 외막 단백질을 포함하는 분획은 호흡기 질병 혼합 백신에 대한 항혈청과 불활화된 사균 세포에 대한 항혈청 모두에서 면역학적으로 검출 가능하였다. 선행 연구에서 분리한 외막 단백질 H 유전자는 재조합 발현 백터 제작에 이용되어 대장균으로부터 재조합 외막단백질 H를 정제하였다. 실험 동물 면역과 항혈청의 교차반응, ELISA를 통한 항체 역가의 측정 및 공격접종을 통하여, 재조합 외막 단백질 H는 높은항원성을 가지며, 지속적인 체액성 면역을 유도하는 것을 확인하였다. 외막 단백질 H는 순수정제 항원으로서 P. multocida에 의한 호흡기 질환에 대한 효과적인 방어를 유도할 수 있는 단위 백신 후보 단백질로 여겨진다.
