Global Spread of the B5 Subgenotype EV-A71 and the Phylogeographical Analysis of Chinese Migration Events.

ABSTRACT: The subgenotype B5 of EV-A71 is a widely circulating subgenotype that frequently spreads across the globe. Several outbreaks have occurred in nations, such as Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Japan. Appearing first in Taiwan, China, the subgenotype has been frequently reported in mainland of China even though no outbreaks have been reported so far. The current study reconstructed the migration of the B5 subgenotype of EV-A71 in China via phylogeographical analysis. Furthermore, we investigated its population dynamics in order to draw more credible inferences. Following a dataset cleanup of B5 subgenotype of EV-A71, we detected earlier B5 subgenotypes of EV-A71 sequences that had been circulating in Malaysia and Singapore since the year 2000, which was before the 2003 outbreak that occurred in Sarawak. The Bayesian inference indicated that the most recent common ancestor of B5 subgenotype EV-A71 appeared in September, 1994 (1994.75). With respect to the overall prevalence, geographical reconstruction revealed that the B5 subgenotype EV-A71 originated singly from single-source cluster and subsequently developed several active lineages. Based on a large amount of data that was accumulated, we conclude that the appearance of the B5 subgenotype of EV-A71 in mainland of China was mainly due to multiple migrations from different origins.

Project description:BackgroundHuman enteroviruses A71 (EV-A71) and D68 (EV-D68) are the suspected causative agents of hand-foot-and-mouth disease, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, acute flaccid myelitis, and acute flaccid paralysis in children. Until now, no cure nor mucosal vaccine existed for EV-A71 and EV-D68. Novel mucosal bivalent vaccines are highly important for preventing EV-A71 and EV-D68 infections.MethodsIn this study, formalin-inactivated EV-A71 and EV-D68 were used as antigens, while PS-G, a polysaccharide from Ganoderma lucidum, was used as an adjuvant. Natural polysaccharides have the characteristics of intrinsic immunomodulation, biocompatibility, low toxicity, and safety. Mice were immunized intranasally with PBS, EV-A71, EV-D68, or EV-A71 + EV-D68, with or without PS-G as an adjuvant.ResultsThe EV-A71 + EV-D68 bivalent vaccine generated considerable EV-A71- and EV-D68-specific IgG and IgA titres in the sera, nasal washes, saliva, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and feces. These antibodies neutralized EV-D68 and EV-A71 infectivity. They also cross-neutralized infections by different EV-D68 and EV-A71 sub-genotypes. Furthermore, compared with the PBS group, EV-A71 + EV-D68 + PS-G-vaccinated mice exhibited an increased number of EV-D68- and EV-A71-specific IgA- and IgG-producing cells. In addition, T-cell proliferative responses, and IFN-γ and IL-17 secretion in the spleen were substantially induced when PS-G was used as an adjuvant with EV-A71 + EV-D68. Finally, in vivo challenge experiments demonstrated that the immune sera induced by EV-A71 + EV-D68 + PS-G conferred protection in neonate mice against lethal EV-A71 and EV-D68 challenges as indicated by the increased survival rate and decreased clinical score and viral RNA tissue expression. Taken together, all EV-A71/EV-D68 + PS-G-immunized mice developed potent specific humoral, mucosal, and cellular immune responses to EV-D68 and EV-A71 and were protected against them.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrated that PS-G can be used as a potential adjuvant for EV-A71 and EV-D68 bivalent mucosal vaccines. Our results provide useful information for the further preclinical and clinical development of a mucosal bivalent enterovirus vaccine against both EV-A71 and EV-D68 infections.
