Background:Heterologous combinations in vaccine design are an effective approach to promote T cell activity and antiviral effects. The goal of this study was to compare the homologous and heterologous regimens targeting the Nef-Tat fusion antigen to develop a human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) therapeutic vaccine candidate.

Methods:At first, the DNA and protein constructs harboring HIV-1 Nef and the first exon of Tat as linked form (pcDNA-nef-tat and Nef-Tat protein) were prepared in large scale and high purity. The generation of the Nef-Tat protein was performed in the E. coli expression system using an IPTG inducer. Then, we evaluated and compared immune responses of homologous DNA prime/ DNA boost, homologous protein prime/ protein boost, and heterologous DNA prime/protein boost regimens in BALB/c mice. Finally, the ability of mice splenocytes to secret cytokines after exposure to single-cycle replicable (SCR) HIV-1 was compared between immunized and control groups in vitro.

Results:The nef-tat gene was successfully subcloned in eukaryotic pcDNA3.1 (-) and prokaryotic pET-24a (+) expression vectors. The recombinant Nef-Tat protein was generated in the E. coli Rosetta strain under optimized conditions as a clear band of ~ 35 kDa detected on SDS-PAGE. Moreover, transfection of pcDNA-nef-tat into HEK-293T cells was successfully performed using Lipofectamine 2000, as confirmed by western blotting. The immunization studies showed that heterologous DNA prime/protein boost regimen could significantly elicit the highest levels of Ig- G2a, IFN-γ, and Granzyme B in mice as compared to homologous DNA/DNA and protein/protein regimens. Moreover, the secretion of IFN-γ was higher in DNA/protein regimens than in DNA/DNA and protein/protein regimens after exposure of mice splenocytes to SCR HIV-1 in vitro.

Conclusion:The chimeric HIV-1 Nef-Tat antigen was highly immunogenic, especially when applied in a heterologous prime/ boost regimen. This regimen could direct immune response toward cellular immunity (Th1 and CTL activity) and increase IFN-γ secretion after virus exposure.
