摘要
单纯疱疹病毒(herpes simplex virus,HSV)2型是一种主要引起生殖器疱疹的病原体,它可以在宿主体内终身潜伏并增加人们感染HIV的几率。HSV-2有12个已命名的特异性包膜糖蛋白,它们在病毒的复制和致病中起着至关重要的作用,是细胞免疫和体液免疫的主要靶标,也是预防和治疗HSV-2感染的亚单位疫苗、DNA疫苗或多肽疫苗的候选蛋白。此文综述了HSV-2包膜糖蛋白的特性及以这些糖蛋白为基础的疫苗的研究进展。
Herpes simplex virus type 2 is a major pathogen causing genital herpes. It can create life- long incubation period in the host and increase the risk of HIV infection. Currently, at least 12 viral glycopro- teins are known. They play a vital role in the virus replication cycle and pathogenicity. They are also the targets of cell-mediated and humoral immunity and important candidates for subunit vaccines, DNA vaccines and peptide vaccines to prevent HSV-2 infection. In this review, the characteristics of HSV-2 envelope glycopro- teins and the glycoprotein-based vaccines are discussed.
