Аннотация

Широко распространенный среди населения планеты вирус Эпштейна-Барр (ВЭБ) является этиологическим агентом для ряда злокачественных новообразований человека. Один из кодируемых вирусом онкобелков, латентный мембранный белок 1 (LMP1), через активацию комплекса сигнальных путей участвует в процессах иммортализации и трансформации клеток. Целью настоящего исследования стало изучение инфицированности ВЭБ российской популяции и анализ полиморфизма LMP1 у больных с доброкачественными и злокачественными ВЭБ-ассоциированными заболеваниями и здоровых вирусоносителей. Исследования показали, что процент инфицированных лиц к 5-9 годам достигает практически максимальных значений. При этом с возрастом титры вирусспецифических антител снижаются при высоком проценте инфицированных лиц и вновь повышаются в группах лиц пожилого возраста. Анализ нуклеотидных последовательностей гена LMP1, транслированных в аминокислотные последовательности, неожиданно выявил не только у здоровых лиц, но и у больных всеми формами ВЭБ-ассоциированных заболеваний доминирование низкодивергентного варианта B95.8/A. Высокодивергентые варианты Ch1 и Med+, содержащие делецию 10 аминокислот (а.к.), и характеризующиеся повышенной трансформирующей активностью, чаще обнаруживали в образцах опухолевой ткани, чем в образцах крови/смывов полости рта тех же больных. Обнаружение высокотрансформирующего варианта Ch1 в образцах крови здоровых лиц свидетельствует о том, что этот аналог китайского варианта Сао может персистировать в любой популяции и не обязательно связан с возникновением ВЭБ-ассоциированных патологий.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in Russia: infection of the population and analysis of the LMP1 gene variants in patients with EBV-associated pathologies and healthy individuals

Abstract

The Epstein-Barr virus, widespread herpesvirus among the population of the planet, is also the etiologic agent for a number of malignancies. One of the oncoproteins encoded by the virus, the latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1), through activation of the complex signaling pathways is involved in the processes of cell immortalization and transformation. The goal of this work was to study the level of the EBV infection in Russian population and LMP1 polymorphism in patients with benign and malignant EBV-associated diseases and healthy virus carriers. Studies have shown that by the age of 5-9 years the percentage of the infected persons and the level of antibody titers reaches almost the maximum values. With the age, virus specific antibody titers are decreased (with a high percentage of infected persons) and increased again in groups of older persons. The analysis of the nucleotide sequences of the gene LMP1 translated in amino acid (aa) sequences unexpectedly revealed the dominance a low divergent variant LMP1 B95.8A not only in healthy individuals but also in patients with all forms of EBV-associated diseases. Highly divergent variants Ch1 and Med +, containing a deletion of 10 aa, and characterized by elevated transforming activity more often were detected in the tumor tissue samples than in the blood samples/mouth washes of the same patients. Detection of highly transforming variant LMP1 Ch1 in blood samples of healthy individuals indicates that this analog of Chinese variant Cao may persist in any population and is not necessarily associated with the occurrence of the EBV-associated disorders.
