I. General Information |
1. NCBI Taxonomy ID: |
10407 |
2. Disease: |
Hepatitis B |
3. Introduction |
Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus that infects the liver of hominoidae (including humans) and causes hepatitis. It has caused epidemics in parts of Asia and Africa. About a third of the world's population, more than 2 billion people, have been infected with the hepatitis B virus. The acute illness causes liver inflammation, vomiting, jaundice and - rarely - death. Chronic hepatitis B may eventually cause liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. This disease is preventable by vaccination (Wiki: Hepatitis B). |
4. Microbial Pathogenesis |
HBV primarily interferes with the functions of the liver by replicating in hepatocytes. HBV virions bind to the host cell via the preS domain of the viral surface antigen, leading to subsequent internalization through endocytosis. HBV-preS specific receptors are primarily expressed on hepatocytes. During HBV infection, the host immune response causes both hepatocellular damage and viral clearance. The innate immune response does not play a significant role in these processes. The adaptive immune response, particularly virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), contributes to most of the liver injury associated with HBV infection. Liver damage is initiated and mediated by the CTLs. Antigen-nonspecific inflammatory cells can worsen CTL-induced immunopathology (Wiki: Hepatitis B). |
5. Host Ranges and Animal Models |
Hepatitis B virus infects the liver of apes including humans (Wiki: Hepatitis B). |
6. Host Protective Immunity |
During HBV infection, the host immune response causes both hepatocellular damage and viral clearance. Although the innate immune response does not play a significant role in these processes, the adaptive immune response, particularly virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), contributes to most of the liver injury associated with HBV infection. By killing infected cells and by producing antiviral cytokines capable of purging HBV from viable hepatocytes, CTLs eliminate the virus. Although liver damage is initiated and mediated by the CTLs, antigen-nonspecific inflammatory cells can worsen CTL-induced immunopathology, and platelets activated at the site of infection may facilitate the accumulation of CTLs in the liver (Wiki: Hepatitis B). |

Molecule Role Annotation :
The immunological protection of pVAX-PS, a DNA vaccine, was assessed in the tree shrews model. pVAX-PS was constructed by inserting the gene encoding the middle (pre-S2 plus S) envelope protein of HBV into a plasmid vector pVAX1. Results indicated that pVAX-PS immunization could induce remarkable humoral immune response and prevent the experimental tree shrews from infection of HBV (Zhou et al., 2003).

Immunisation with a plasmid encoding the DHBV large (L) envelope protein (HBVgp2 pre-S1/pre-S2/S) induced a strong, specific, highly neutralising and long-lasting anti-preS humoral response in uninfected ducks. Importantly, maternal antibodies elicited by such DNA immunisation were vertically transmitted and protected progeny against viral challenge (Thermet et al., 2003).

Ducks Response |
- Vaccine Immune Response Type:
VO_0000286
- Immune Response:
The S-DNA vaccine was able to elicit humoral immune responses against DHBV surface proteins in ducks. In addition, The S-DNA vaccine induced high titers of anti-DHBs antibodies, and anti-S antibodies induced by the S-DNA construct were highly effective in neutralizing virus infectivity. (Triyatni et al., 1998).
- Efficacy:
Vaccination of ducks with S DNA vaccines prevented the development of viremia following virus challenge. All ducks were challenged with a high-titer dose of DHBV virus. Preincubation of the virus with 5, 10, or, 20 μl of anti-S serum at 37°C for 1 hour prior to i.v. inoculation into 1-day-old ducklings completely prevented the development of viremia during a 4-week observation period in all of the ducks (Triyatni et al., 1998).

Mouse Response |
- Vaccine Immune Response Type:
VO_0000286
- Immune Response:
The serum concentration of secreted HBsAg after a one-time injection of DNA was sufficient to induce the production of anti-HBsAg 10 days after injection, and the antibody levels continued to increase for up to at least 60 days. Direct intramuscular injection of the plasmid vector encoding the HBsAg leads to secretion of the viral surface protein into the circulation, in the form of empty particles (Davis et al., 1993).
- Efficacy:
A level of 10 mlU/ml of anti-HBsAg antibody is recognized as being sufficient in humans to confer protection against natural Hepatitis B virus infection. This level of antibody response was achieved in 68% of mice vaccinated with the vaccine candidate at two weeks after vaccination. By 8 wks, all mice had >100 mIU anti-HBsAg in their sera, suggesting sufficient vaccine efficacy (Davis et al., 1993).

Chimpanzee Response |
- Vaccine Immune Response Type:
VO_0000286
- Immune Response:
Immunization of chimpanzees with HBsAg-expressing plasmid DNA induced specific anti-HBs antibodies. The higher dose of DNA (2 mg) induced significant titers (>100 mIU/ml) of anti-HBs after the initial injection of DNA. These titers never went below the 10 mIU/ml level considered adequate to confer protection (Davis et al., 1996).
- Efficacy:
The outcome of challenge with live HBV of the ayw strain was strongly correlated with the anti-HBs titers. Of the eight chimpanzees with a titer >10 mIU/ml, all were protected from infection except for one, which had the lowest anti-HBs titer at 12 mIU/ml. These findings agree closely with the critical protective level of 10 mIU/ml determined for humans by the Centers for Disease Control (Davis et al., 1996).

- Immune Response:
PLGA–CTAB–DNA optimizes two key features during antigen presentation, controlled release and targeted delivery, which might be involved in the mechanisms of its augmented immunogenicity and enhanced immunoprotection (He et al., 2005)
- Challenge Protocol:
Challenge with transplanted HBsAg-expressing tumor cells (He et al., 2005).
- Efficacy:
Mice immunized with PLGA–CTAB–pVAX(S) (20 μg per mouse) or naked pVAX(S) (100 μg per mouse) after a challenge of transplanted HBsAg-expressing tumor cells showed weak protection efficacy, resulting in a final survival rate of 10% or 20% at week 15. However, mice immunized with PLGA–CTAB–pVAX(S) at the dose of 100 μg per mouse displayed a strong inhibition on tumor formation and a remarkable improvement in final survival rate (60%) (He et al., 2005).

h.
Mouse Response |
- Vaccine Immune Response Type:
VO_0000286
- Immune Response:
When mice are immunized with recombinant HBsAg, the main type of immune response generated is the antibody response. However, a Th1/CTL response was also elicited, which is important to facilitate eradication of HBV infection and can be utilized for therapeutic immunization of HBV chronic carriers (Khatri et al., 2008).
- Efficacy:
Nasal administration of nanoparticles resulted in serum anti-HBsAg titre that was less compared to that elicited by naked DNA and alum adsorbed HBsAg, but the mice were seroprotective within 2 weeks and the immunoglobulin level was above the clinically protective level (>10 mIU/ml) suggesting successful generation of systemic immunity. Levels of 1 and 10 mIU/ml are well-established standards for anti-HBs antibody levels in mice and humans, respectively and are considered sufficient to confer protection against the disease (Khatri et al., 2008).

g. Immunization Route |
Intramuscular injection (i.m.) |
h.
Mouse Response |
- Vaccine Immune Response Type:
VO_0000286
- Immune Response:
Coexpression of IL-2 and hepatitis B virus HBV^3 envelope protein within the same plasmid vector resulted in a dramatic increase in its ability to induce humoral and cellular immune responses to HBsAg. Also, the IL-2 adjuvant activity helps the HBV DNA vaccine elicit high anti-HBs titers in animals that usually fail to respond to rHBsAg vaccination (Chow et al., 1998)
- Efficacy:
Four of five mice immunized with pS + pcDNA3 and challenged with CT26/S showed an inhibition of tumor growth. The protective efficacy was dramatically increased when the IL-12 gene was coinjected with plasmid pS because tumor growth was significantly suppressed, and two of five mice remained tumor free up to 60 days following tumor challenge (Chow et al., 1998).

- Immune Response:
JVRS-100 combined with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) broke tolerance by stimulating significant B and T cell responses. The combination of HBsAg + JVRS-100 elicited a T cell response as indicated by increased levels of IFN-γ in splenocyte cell-culture supernatant (Morrey et al., 2011).

Ducks Response |
- Host Strain:
Pekin
- Vaccination Protocol:
Four-week-old ducks received intramuscular (i.m.) injections of 100–300 μg of plasmid DNA diluted in NaCl 0.9%. The birds were injected in three sites (anterior quadriceps of both legs and breast), and booster doses were given 3 weeks later at the same sites (Thermet et al., 2003).
- Challenge Protocol:
Progeny ducklings received a high titre DHBV challenge and the viremia was followed by quantitative dot blot hybridisation for each animal during 17 days (Thermet et al., 2003).
- Efficacy:
Immunisation with a plasmid encoding the DHBV large (L) envelope protein (HBVgp2 pre-S1/pre-S2/S) induced a strong, specific, highly neutralising and long-lasting anti-preS humoral response in uninfected ducks. Importantly, maternal antibodies elicited by such DNA immunisation were vertically transmitted and protected progeny against viral challenge (Thermet et al., 2003).

- Vaccination Protocol:
Sixty adult tree shrews purchased from the Kunming Animal Institute were randomly divided into four groups and immunized twice at 2-week intervals with the DNA vaccine by i.m. injection of 100 mg of pVAX-PS or pVAX1 in a volume of 100 ml in bilateral quadriceps (Zhou et al., 2003).
- Challenge Protocol:
Two weeks after the second DNA immunization, tree shrews in two groups (immunized with pVAX-PS and pVAX1, respectively) were challenged through the caudal vein with 0.8 ml of the patient’s serum positive for the HBV marker (Zhou et al., 2003).
- Efficacy:
The immunological protection of pVAX-PS, a DNA vaccine, was assessed in the tree shrews model. pVAX-PS was constructed by inserting the gene encoding the middle (pre-S2 plus S) envelope protein of HBV into a plasmid vector pVAX1. Results indicated that pVAX-PS immunization could induce remarkable humoral immune response and prevent the experimental tree shrews from infection of HBV (Zhou et al., 2003).

RECOMBIVAX HB is a sterile suspension for intramuscular injection. It is a non-infectious subunit viral vaccine derived from hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) produced in yeast cells. A portion of the hepatitis B virus gene, coding for HBsAg, is cloned into yeast, and the vaccine for hepatitis B is produced from cultures of this recombinant yeast strain according to methods developed in the Merck Research Laboratories. The antigen is harvested and purified from fermentation cultures of a recombinant strain of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing the gene for the adw subtype of HBsAg (Merck: Recombivax HB). |

Human Response |
- Immune Response:
In clinical trials, it has been found that combining the hepatitis A antigen with the hepatitis B surface antigen in TWINRIX resulted in comparable anti-HAV or anti-HBsAg titers, relative to vaccination with the individual monovalent vaccines or the concomitant administration of each vaccine in opposite arms (FDA: TWINRIX).
- Side Effects:
Side effects of immunization included: redness, itching and swelling of the injection site, headache and fatigue. Severe adverse effects were limited and resolved in a timely matter.
