英文摘要Safe and effective vaccines are urgently needed to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the SARS-CoV-2 variants raise concerns about the effectiveness of vaccines. As a SARS-CoV-2 antigen target, ORF8 strongly inhibits the IFN-13 and NF-kappa B-responsive promoter, and can be potentially used for the development of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. However, it is necessary to improve the immunogenicity of ORF8 by adjuvants or delivery systems. CRM197 was a carrier protein with the ability to activate T helper cells for antigens. Eight-arm PEG could conjugate multiple antigen molecules in one entity with inherent adjuvant effect. In the present study, ORF8 was conjugated with CRM197 and 8-arm PEG, respectively. The cellular and humoral immune responses to the conjugates (ORF8-CRM and ORF8-PEG) were evaluated in the BALB/c mice. As compared with ORF8-CRM and ORF8 administrated with aluminum adjuvant (ORF8/AL), ORF8-PEG induced a higher ORF8-specific IgG titer (2.6 x 104), higher levels of cytokines (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IFN-13, and IL-5), stronger splenocyte proliferation. Thus, conjugation with 8-arm PEG was an effective method to improve the immune response to ORF8. Moreover, ORF8-PEG did not lead to apparent toxicity to the cardiac, liver and renal functions. ORF8-PEG was expected to act as an effective vaccine to provide the immune protection against SARS-CoV-2.
