为了更好地了解大鲵在感染蛙病毒过程中的生理生化及抗病毒反应,通过十二烷基硫酸钠聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS.PAGE)辅以密度分析,对大鲵正常血清和感染血清、正常黏液和感染黏液的蛋白图谱分别进行测试比较。结果显示:在正常血清(CS)、包括自然感染血清(NS)和人工感染血清(AS)在内的感染血清中,蛋白带集中在60—80kD,其含量超过血清蛋白总量的42%;正常血清在14—57kD之间有16条蛋白带:57、53、50、43、40、38、36、31、27、26、25、22、16、15.5、15和14kD,其中正常与感染血清(包括NS和AS)比较,有10条共有蛋白带:57、43、40、31、27、26、25、15.5、15和14kD和4条差异蛋白带:53、33、22和16kD。正常黏液(CM)和感染黏液(NM或AM)共有11条蛋白带:116、100、75、57、53、45、27、18、17、16和15kD,但感染黏液多出7条蛋白带:90、52、43、32、26、20和13kD。还有些蛋白带含量出现变化,如45kD条带在CM中占总蛋白量的19.3%,而在AM中仅占总蛋白的3.8%。研究证实蛙病毒感染能导致大鲵黏液和血清蛋白图谱发生变化,也为深入探寻两栖类抗病毒相关的蛋白生物标记提供了有价值的信息。
The Chinese giant salam Andrias davidianus is endemic to China and is the largest remaining amphibian in the world, which has considerable economic and scientific significance. However, epidemic of ranavirus disease have been responsible for the wild population continued to decline a sharp drop in giant salamander production. For better understanding of the physiological and biochemical reactions, and antiviral responses of Chinese giant salamander, the protein profiles of serum and mucus from control and infected giant salamanders were analysized and compared by so- dium dodecyl sulfate polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and the densitometric analysis. The results show that protein bands from control serum (CS) and infected serum (including natural infected serum, NS and artificial in- fected serum, AS) were enriched at 60-80 kD, the contents were more than 42% of total protein. Besides, sixteen protein bands were present among 14 57 kD in CS: 57, 53, 50, 43, 40, 38, 36, 31, 27, 26, 25, 22,16,15.5,15 and14 kD. Four protein bands 53, 33, 22 and 16 kD were different between CS and NS, AS. Control mucus (CM) and infected mucus (including natural infection mucus, NM and artificial infected mucus, AM) have eleven common protein bands 116, 100, 75, 57, 53, 45, 27, 18, 17, 16 and 15 kD. But infected giant salamander mucus NM and AM have seven other protein bands 90, 52, 43, 32, 26, 20 and 13 kD. Furthermore, the protein contents of some bands have changed, for example, the 45 kD band in CM makes up 19.3% of total protein. However, it only makes up 3.8% in AM. This study has demonstrated that ranavirus infection can lead to protein components change in Chinese giant salamander's mucus and serum, which provided valuable information for explore antiviral associated protein biomarkers in amphibians.
