Indirect ELISA determination of mouse serum-specific IgG antibody titres
1) Coating: oligosaccharide 1-BSA conjugate (10. Mu.g/ml, 100. Mu.L/well) was coated overnight (12-16 hours) at 4℃and sealed with a sealing membrane to prevent evaporation (coating buffer: 50mmol/L bicarbonate buffer, pH 9.6), carefully placed in a wet box.
2) Washing the plate: the original coating liquid in the plate was discarded, washed 3 times with PBST wash solution, and then the plate was dried by pipetting.
3) Closing: incubating with 200 μl of skim milk blocking solution at 37deg.C for 2h; the ELISA plate should be used immediately after being patted dry, so that complete drying is avoided.
4) Washing the plate: the blocking solution was discarded, washed 3 times with PBST wash solution, and the mixture was patted dry.
5) An anti-binding: after the test strip is dried, firstly adding a diluent, diluting 50 mu L/well, diluting the tested serum in an ELISA plate, using the ELISA plate transversely, adding 50 mu L of the diluted tested serum into the column 1, mixing column 1 with a row gun, adding 50 μl into column 2, mixing, adding 50 μl into column 3, mixing, diluting to column 10, discarding 50 μl liquid, and incubating at 37deg.C for 2 hr.
6) Washing the plate: the sample was discarded, washed 5 times with PBST wash and patted dry.
7) And (2) secondary antibody: 100 μl of oxidase (HRP) -conjugated IgG goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (diluted 1:10000, and enzyme-labeled antibody was added in the last plate wash) and incubated for 2h at room temperature.
8) Washing the plate: the solution in the plate was discarded, and the plate was washed 7 times with PBST and dried by patting.
9) Color development: 100. Mu.L of TMB color development solution was added under a dark condition, and incubated at room temperature for 30min (note dark operation).
10 Terminating: the reaction was quenched with 50. Mu.L of 2mol/L H2SO 4.
11 Reading a plate: absorbance values at 450nm were read to evaluate antibody activity. The reaction was stopped for 30min, absorbance at 450nm was read, and 620nm wavelength was set up as background absorbance subtraction.
12 Calculation of antibody titer: note that PBS control wells should not be hemolyzed, typically 2 times the average of negative wells is set as a threshold, wells above which are judged positive, and the highest dilution of positive wells is the antibody titer of the serum sample.
Experimental results:
antibody titer is an important index for evaluating humoral immunity, and the antibody titer of serum of immunized mice was measured by indirect ELISA, and the results are shown in FIG. 4. Serum antibody titers showed an increasing trend as a whole after mice were immunized. However, the levels of antibody titers in mice were low within 14 days after primary immunization. On day 28 after priming, the experimental group was significantly higher than the PBS group, indicating that each group of antigens elicited an effective humoral immune response in mice. After three complete immunizations, the mice had significantly increased antibody titers in vivo on day 35. Oligosaccharide 1, unconjugated protein, was also able to induce specific antibodies in mice compared to PBS. But oligosaccharide 1 and CRM 197 After conjugation, the immune response in mice induced by it was stronger, yielding higher antibody titers. Indicating that oligosaccharide 1 is purified by CRM 197 Protein coupleIn combination, helps to enhance its ability to induce an immune response in vivo.
Determination of the concentration of mouse serum Total IgG antibodies
The method for determining the concentration of the total IgG antibodies in the serum of the mice is determined according to the manual method of the total IgG antibody kit of the blood of the mice. Through PBS group, oligosaccharide 1 group and oligosaccharide 1-CRM 197 The total IgG concentration in the samples was determined using a kit standard mouse IgG standard concentration curve from the serum of mice 0-7 weeks after immunization of each conjugate.
Experimental results:
the total IgG antibody concentration was an important index for evaluating the ability of the vaccine to elicit an immune response, and the total IgG antibody concentration in serum of immunized mice was measured by a commercial kit, and the results are shown in fig. 3. Serum total IgG antibody concentration showed a trend of continuously increasing as a whole after mice were immunized. Laboratory mice serum total IgG antibody concentrations were all significantly elevated compared to PBS group. Oligosaccharide 1-CRM 197 The conjugate group was more able to induce higher levels of IgG antibody concentration in mice than the oligosaccharide 1 group, indicating oligosaccharide 1 and CRM 197 After protein coupling, its immunogenicity in mice was significantly enhanced.

In addition, PBS, oligosaccharide 1-CRM is added into each hole 197 The conjugate (the concentration of which is adjusted to 10 mug/mL by using a complete culture medium and acid according to the mass of polysaccharide) is blown and evenly mixed, so that air bubbles are avoided. The negative control group only contains cells, and no stimulus is added; the blank control group is only added with culture medium; each sample was provided with 3 duplicate wells, the total volume of each well being 200 μl. 96-well cell culture plates were placed at 37℃with 5% CO 2 Is cultured for 72 hours in the incubator of (2). mu.L of CCK-8 solution was added to each well and gently blown with a gunMixing was continued for 4h in an incubator, and then absorbance at 450nm was measured. The proliferation intensity of splenic lymphocytes was expressed as absorbance at 450 nm.

The compound S-1 is subjected to TBS protecting group removal under the action of TBAF, and then the C5 benzoyl group is removed under the action of sodium methoxide, so that the compound S-2 is obtained in two steps of 85% yield. Compound S-2 was allyl over C-4OH selectivity to give receptor 2 in 87% yield.
Wherein, the chemical formulas of S-1 and S-2 are as follows:
donor 1 and C5-OH acceptor 2 under the catalysis of TBPAGlycosylation was performed to give 2, 5-linked Kdo disaccharide compound 3 in 80% yield. In one aspect, disaccharide compound 3 is at Et 3 After removal of 8'-O-TBS and 5',7'-O-DTBS protecting groups by N-3HF, 7',8'-OH was protected with isopropylidene acetal to give 5' -OH disaccharide receptor 4 in 73% yield in two steps. On the other hand, after 4-O-All was removed by the action of activated iridium complex, mercury oxide and mercury chloride, disaccharide compound 3 gave 4-OH disaccharide acceptor 5 (yield 75%) and disaccharide by-product 6 (yield 13%)
Wherein, the chemical formulas of the donor 1, the acceptor 2, the compound 3 and the acceptor 5 are respectively shown as follows:
glycosylation of 4-OH disaccharide acceptor 5 with donor 12 gave Kdo branched trisaccharide 13 in 70% yield. Kdo branched trisaccharide 13 removes 8' -O-TBS and 5',7' -O-DTBS protecting group to give compound 14 (yield 87%). Compound 14 gave the target branched trisaccharide 15 in 58% yield over three steps by removing the isopropylidene group under acidic conditions, removing all the ester protecting groups by saponification, and converting the azide group to amino group while removing the benzyl protecting group by catalytic hydrogenation reduction.
Wherein the chemical formulas of the donor 12 and the compound 14 are as follows:
the embodiments of the present application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiments, which are merely illustrative and not restrictive, and many forms may be made by those having ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit of the present application and the scope of the claims, which are to be protected by the present application.
