Serodiagnosis of viral
infection
How to identify an unknown virus
infection?



Virus isolation and identification (sometime
danger and not easy)
PCR or RT-PCR
Antibody screening: “Blind” immunoscreening
of cDNA expression libraries
Discovry of Hepatitis C Virus
(HCV)
Serological expression cloning
(SEREX) approach to defining
tumor or virus antigens
Significance of antibody against
virus




Protective, such as anti-HBsAb
Infected, such as anti-HCV, anti-HIV
Why?
Home work: please search medline, find out the
original papers and describe how HCV and HIV
were identified to be associated with post
transfusion hepatitis and AIDS, respectively.

1932年Paul跟Bunnell發現infectious mononucleosis
(IM)患者的heterophil antibody效價顯著增高
1964年Epstein由Burkitt’s Lymphoma中發現病毒,便
取名為Epstein-Barr Virus(EBV)
Epidemiology





世界各地分布極廣,經常感染兒童,尤其是落後地區
兒童血清EBV抗體陽性反應高達80%
兒童感染EBV通常無臨床症狀,僅出現fever或輕微
上呼吸道症狀
青少年或成人感染則易出現infectious
mononucleosis (IM)為一種急性或亞急性.良性.具
傳染性之淋巴球增生疾病,好發於年輕人
主要傳播途徑-saliva
口腔上皮細胞有EBV receptor--CD21(又稱為CR2)
EBV病毒特性






屬於herpes virus
病毒大小150-200nm
Double strand DNA
有capsid也有envelope
病毒複製時最早出現抗原為EBNA、EMA,之
後出現兩種EA
最後出現VCA、LMA
EBV
Specific antibody responses in IM


Anti-VCA IgM用來診斷IM具有良好特異性
Anti-EBNA則可視為曾經感染EBV的指標
EBV-Associated Tumors



Burkitt’s lymphoma(BL) :散佈世界各地,但
以非洲瘧疾流行區域最多
好發於3-15歲兒童,6-7歲發生率最高
100%具有對EBV的抗體,其中以anti-VCA
比一般對照血清的平均值高8-10倍
鼻咽癌NPC




為一種惡性鱗狀上皮細胞腫瘤
anti-VCA IgA 比一般對照血清平均值高10
倍
anti-EA/D也會升高EA/R則否
anti-VCA和anti-EA/D兩者與腫瘤體積有關,
能作為預後的指標
Laboratory diagnosis
發病2-3週間肝臟酵素會上升;30%患者膽紅素
會上升3-8mg/dL
 血清檢查分兩大類:
1.specific antibody測定
2.heterophil antibody測定
 小於4歲兒童有70-80 %嗜異型抗體呈陰性反應,
故幼童檢查必須測定專一性抗體
 IM患者有85%會呈現嗜異型抗體positive,若為
negative則可能為CMV或其他如rubella、
toxoplasma、adenovirus所引起

Hematologic examination



IM患者有3%為coomb’s test positive
淋巴球總數比常人多(≧50%) ,主要為atypical
lymphocyte增加(≧10%)
EBV只感染B淋巴球 ,但是B、T淋巴球皆會因
EBV感染而變成atypical lymphocyte (T淋巴球是
因為病毒抗原或B淋巴球抗原而產生的免疫反
應)
Serologic test of EBV-specific antibodies




檢anti-VCA或anti-EA可採用間接免疫螢光分析
法,測定anti-EBNA則市採用抗補體間接免疫
螢光法
P3HR-1可用來測定anti-VCA IgG、IgA、IgM
Raji細胞株用於EBNA的測定
EA測定必須將病毒細胞株以sodium butyrate、
halogenated pyrimidines或腫瘤促進因子處理,
使EBV表現EA抗原

Hepatitis B Virus



Hepadnavirus
Known as serum hepatitis
Enveloped DNA virus, circular, partly doublestranded
Pathology
Transmission
 Acute or chronic ,symptomatic or asymptomatic
depend on the person’s immune response
 Replicate in the hepatocytes with minimal cytopathic
effect
 Cell-mediated immunity and inflammation are
responsible for causing the symptoms and resolution
of the HBV infection by eliminating the infected
hepaocytes

Clinical manifestation




Flu-like: fatigue, nausea, fever
Jaundice (icterus):Yellow eyes and skin
abdominal pain, loss of appetite, diarrhea
average incubation period : (45-160 days)
Laboratory diagnosis

A battery of serological tests are used for the
diagnosis of acute and chronic hepatitis B
infection.

HBsAg - used as a general marker of infection.

HBsAb - used to document recovery and/or
immunity to HBV infection.

anti-HBc IgM - marker of acute infection.




anti-HBc IgG - past or chronic infection.
HBeAg - indicates active replication of virus and
therefore infectiveness.
Anti-HBe - virus no longer replicating. However, the
patient can still be positive for HBsAg which is made
by integrated HBV.
HBV-DNA - indicates active replication of virus,
more accurate than HBeAg especially in cases of
escape mutants. Used mainly for monitoring response
to therapy.

Course of HIV infection
1. 有明顯的 viremic stage , 且伴隨有類似感冒的症狀 , 約在感
染後數週內 , 此時可偵測到病毒顆粒和病毒RNA。
p24 Ag + , virus culture + , PCR +
2. 空窗期(window period) , 此時病毒Ag titer降低至幾乎消失 ,
只測得到p24 , 且anti-HIV Ab 也還未出現 。
3. Seroconversion , 此時anti-HIV Ab 出現 , 通常感染後2週~6
個月抗體會出現 , Ag下降至測不出 , 難virus culture。
(95%病人會在3~6個月內出現抗體;5%病人在6~18個月時才
出現抗體)
4. 臨床潛隱期(outwardly latent phase) , 這個時期平均約10年,
CD4+ T cell 數量大減 , 可偵測到virus RNA(100%) ,
anti-HIV Ab 高 , 血漿中HIV量低 , 淋巴器官中的HIV高。
Course of HIV infection
5. 伺機性感染和惡性腫瘤期
由於此時的CD4+ T cell數量已下降到極低 , 全身免疫系統已
經被嚴重破壞 , 會造成許多微生物的感染 ,
ex: Candida , CMV , HSV , Mycobacterium tuberculosis 等的感染 。
惡性腫瘤如: Lymphoma , Kaposi’s sarcoma 為最常見的。
此時周邊血液的HIV病毒量上升 , CD4+ T cell 中的proviral
DNA 上升 , anti-HIV Ab 下降。
這一時期可維持數月至數年 , 最後病人死亡。

應用
HBsAg
HBsAg表面抗原為感染B型肝炎病毒最早出現的血清病毒
標記;急性感染痊癒者,約6個月後產生保護性的表面抗
原抗體(HBsAb)。B型肝炎帶原者未產生HBsAb,其
HBsAg會持續存在。
HBsAb
HBsAb表面抗原抗體具保護力,表示病人對B型肝炎病毒
已具免疫力,可作為施打B型肝炎疫苗成效之評估。
HCV Ab
HCV抗體陽性表示已感染了C型肝炎病毒,此抗體不具保
護力。診斷治療需一併參考臨床表現, C型肝炎為主要之
輸血後肝炎,患者易演變為慢性肝炎及肝癌。
HIV Ab
僅為HIV 抗體篩檢,在感染HIV病毒 4-12週後出現,陽性
反應須再以western blot確認。注意採檢時機,空窗期無法
測得。
CMV
HSV 1&2
Measles
Rubella
目的
檢測CMV、 HSV 1&2 、 Measles、Rubella之IgG或IgM抗體
原理

酵素免疫法(ELISA)
方法
1. 將serum做稀釋(測IgM要與RF吸收劑作用15mins)
2. Well加入serum,37 ℃放置60mins
3. Wash 4次,加conjugate
4. Wash 4次,加呈色受質溶液
5. 室溫放置30mins,加入終止溶液
6. 1小時內判讀

應用
CMV
1. CMV感染後會終身存在體內,其IgG抗體也終身存在
。篩檢此抗體可減低血清檢驗陰性的受贈者在輸血或
移殖後,感染來自抗體陽性的捐贈者所轉移的病毒。
2. IgM抗體證明最近曾有CMV感染(初次感染或病毒再活
化),可持續12-16週,或依病情而延續表現長達八個月
以上,但並非所有CMV IgM陽性的病毒感染者都有臨
床上的症狀。
HSV 1&2
1. 不是診斷的重要依據,HSV IgG主要是偵測病人體內
HSV的免疫狀況。
2. 近期感染人類單純皰疹病毒(HSV)時,會出現此IgM抗
體,提供診斷治療可減低HSV感染導致腦炎的致死
率。
應用
Measles
1. 麻疹感染後其抗體會終身存在,IgG抗體主要是偵測
病人體內的免疫狀況,因抗體具有保護性,也可作為
施打疫苗成效之評估。
2. 一般出疹後IgM 1-2週才會出現,30-60天後消失。此
IgM抗體陽性表示最近曾感染麻疹病毒。
Rubella
1. 感染出疹後4天,其 IgM抗體會出現,4-6週後消失,
IgM抗體陽性表示最近感染德國麻疹病毒。
2. Rubella IgG主要是偵測病人體內德國麻疹的免疫狀況
,德國麻疹的IgG抗體具有保護性。
