摘要:

目的·探究超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)对精液来源的病毒增强因子(semen-derived enhancer of viral infection, SEVI)淀粉样纤维形成的抑制作用。方法·将440 μmol/L的前列腺酸性磷酸酶248-286(prostatic acid phosphatase 248-286,PAP248-286)多肽溶液或精液分别与不同活性水平的SOD混合孵育,于不同的时间点取样,用硫磺素T染色法、圆二色谱法、透射电子显微镜检测SOD对SEVI形成的影响;用病毒感染增强实验,检测SOD对SEVI促进人类免疫缺陷病毒1型(human immunodeficiency virus-1,HIV-1)感染能力的影响。灭活SOD并检测其对SEVI形成及病毒感染能力的影响。总SOD活性检测试剂盒检测5份健康志愿者精液中SOD的活性水平。结果·硫磺素T染色法结果显示,48 h时,46 U/mL和92 U/mL的SOD在体外可以抑制PAP248-286溶液形成SEVI淀粉样纤维;圆二色谱结果表明SOD可以抑制SEVI β-折叠结构的形成;透射电子显微镜结果也表明,SOD对SEVI的形成具有抑制作用。精液中的硫磺素T染色分析结果显示,SOD可抑制精液中的SEVI形成。病毒感染增强实验结果显示,SOD能够抑制SEVI促进HIV-1感染能力的作用。SOD灭活后上述作用均基本消失。5份健康男性精液中SOD活性分别为74.87、68.69、85.46、113.29、109.53 U/mL。结论·SOD在体外可以抑制SEVI淀粉样纤维的形成及其促进HIV-1感染的作用。

Abstract:

Objective·To explore the inhibitory effect of superoxide dismutase (SOD) on the formation of semen-derived enhancer of viral infection (SEVI) amyloid fibrils.

Methods·Prostatic acid phosphatase 248-286 (PAP248-286) at 440 μmol/L or seminal fluid was incubated with SOD at different activity levels, and at different time points, aliquots were taken from each sample for thioflavin T (ThT) staining, circular dichroism (CD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) to detect the effect of SOD on the formation of SEVI. The effect of SOD on the ability of SEVI to promote human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection was detected by virus infection enhancement experiment. The effects of inactivated SOD on the formation of SEVI and the ability of SEVI to promote virus infection were also detected. The SOD activity levels in the semen of five healthy volunteers were detected by using total SOD activity detection kit.

Results·The results of ThT staining showed that 46 U/mL and 92 U/mL SOD could inhibit the formation of SEVI fibrils in the PAP248-286 solution in vitro at 48-h time point. The results of CD showed that SOD could inhibit the formation of β-sheet structure of SEVI. The results of TEM also showed that SOD could inhibit the formation of SEVI. The ThT staining in the semen also demonstrated the inhibitory effect of SOD on the formation of SEVI. As shown in the virus infection enhancement experiment, SOD could inhibit the promoting effect of SEVI on HIV-1 infection. When SOD was inactivated, the effects above almost disappeared. The SOD activities in the semen of the five healthy males were 74.87, 68.69, 85.46, 113.29, and 109.53 U/mL, respectively.

Conclusion·SOD can inhibit the formation of SEVI fibrils in vitro and the promoting effect of SEVI on HIV-1 infection.
