Abstract: There is still no effective clinical antiviral drug against human enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection, which causes hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children. Scavenger receptor class B member 2 (SCARB2) is an important receptor of EV71 as it plays a vital role in the early steps of viral infection. In this study, recombinant SCARB2 protein was expressed and purified in a prokaryotic expression system, and was identified by western blot with a monoclonal antibody and mass spectrometry analysis. Detection of the sera from mice immunized with the recombinant SCARB2 protein using ELISA and western blot showed good immunogenicity of the recombinant protein. Furthermore, in the neutralization test cytopathic effect was significantly decreased when EV71 was incubated with the immune sera before infection. In summary, the SCARB2 protein was expressed successfully, and the immune sera showed obvious antiviral effect against EV71. This study provides useful information about the interaction mechanism between SCARB2 and EV71, and is also helpful for further clinical treatment research of HFMD. |
