Definitions
- the invention relates to methods for the diagnosis of infection with Treponema palladium.
- the invention relates to methods for the diagnosis of infection with Treponema palladium in donors of blood intended for transfusion.
- TTIs transfusion transmitted infections
- Treponema palladium A pathogen of particular concern in transfusion medicine is Treponema palladium. This organism is the causal agent of syphilis. Research has been performed to identify those antigens of Treponema palladium that may be responsible for eliciting an immunogenic response. The presence of antibody in the sera of donors is indicative of infection.
- Known assays for the serological diagnosis of syphilis include the rapid plasma reagin (RPR) card test (Becton Dickinson Microbiology Systems, Cockeysville, MD) and the solid phase erythrocyte adherence (SPEA) assay CAPTURE-STM (Immucor, Inc., Norcross, GA) (Stone et al (1997)).
- RPR rapid plasma reagin
- SPEA solid phase erythrocyte adherence
- the solid phase erythrocyte adherence assay provides additional benefits of ease of use, accommodation of high-volume testing, and the potential for automation, e.g. the GALILEO ECHOTM platform (Immucor, Inc., Norcross, GA).
- the invention provides a method for determining the likelihood of infection of a subject with Treponema palladium comprising the steps of:
- F is a peptide comprising the sequence:
- L is a lipid selected from the group consisting of diacyl- and dialkyl-glycerolipids, including glycerophospholipids;
- the degree of agglutination indicates the likelihood of infection of the subject.
- the method includes prior to determining the degree of agglutination of the cells of the mixture the intermediate step of:
- the subject is a human.
- the cells are RBCs.
- the plasma or serum of a subject is obtained from a donated sample of blood.
- the anti-subject globulin antibody is anti-human globulin (AHG) antibody.
- S is selected to provide a construct that is water soluble.
- the peptide-lipid construct is of the structure:
- Ri and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of: alkyl or alkenyl substituents of the fatty acids trans-3-hexadecenoic acid, cis-5-hexadecenoic acid, cis-7-hexadecenoic acid, cis-9-hexadecenoic acid, cis-6- octadecenoic acid, cis-9-octadecenoic acid, trans-9- octadecenoic acid, trans-11-octadecenoic acid, cis-11- octadecenoic acid, cis-11-eicosenoic acid or cis-13- docsenoic acid;
- n is the integer 3, 4 or 5;
- n is the integer 1, 2 or 3;
- M is a monovalent cation such as H + , Na + , K + or NH 4 + .
- n is the integer 2.
- the invention provides a method of testing donated blood for the presence of antibodies indicative of the donor being infected with Treponema palladium comprising the steps of:
- modified RBCs have been modified to incorporate a peptide-lipid construct of the structure F-S-L where:
- F is a peptide comprising the sequence:
- S is a spacer covalently linking F to L;
- L is a lipid selected from the group consisting of diacyl- and dialkyl-glycerolipids, including glycerophospholipids;
- the degree of adherence is indicative of the likelihood of the antibodies being present.
- the determining the degree of adherence of the antiglobulin coated indicator cells to the immobilized layer of modified RBCs is by centrifugation to pellet unbound antiglobulin coated indicator cells.

- FIG. 1 The structure of a peptide-lipid construct (F-S-L) of the invention comprising the peptide sequence:
- immunogenic peptide sequences are known to be immunogenic, i.e. capable of eliciting the production of antibody.
- immunogenic peptide sequences are not equally capable of interacting with elicited antibody and therefore providing the basis for a diagnostic assay.
- SYPH3 This selected peptide sequence (designated SYPH3) has been demonstrated to be superior to the following peptide sequences when used in the diagnostic method described in the specification accompanying international application no. PCT/NZ2008/000239 (publ. no. WO 2009/035347) :
- ArgValMetTyrAlaSerSerGly (SEQID N0:l) designated SYPHl and:
- ProGluLysAlaPheArgGluLeu SEQID NO:2
- the peptides were prepared in the form of peptide-lipid constructs (F-S-L) as described in the specification accompanying international application no. PCT/NZ2008/000266 (publ. no. WO 2009/048343). Each peptide was conjugated via the sulfhydryl residue of a Cys residue located at the carboxy terminus of the sequence (of. Figure 1).
- RBCs were modified by contacting a suspension of the cells (1 part pcv) with a dispersion of construct at a concentration of 100 ⁇ g/mL or 50 ⁇ g/mL (2 parts pcv) at 37 0 C for 1 hour. Modified cells (kodecytes) were washed three times in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and resuspended.
- PBS phosphate buffered saline
- a suspension of 3% (pcv/v) kodecytes is prepared in PBS and 30 ⁇ l of the suspension mixed with 30 ⁇ l of sample plasma or serum. The mixtures are then incubated for 45 min at 37 0 C. Following incubation the kodecytes are centrifuged for 10 s in an ImmufugeTM (setting: "high") and observed for agglutination before being washed 3 times with PBS.
- Test Method 1 Both Test Method 1 and Test Method 2 were performed on a GALILEO ECHOTM automated blood bank instrument (Immucor Gamma) .
- SYPH3-10 kodecytes were created by suspending a packed cell volume (pcv) of group 0 red blood red cells in an equal volume of a solution containing the FSL-SYPH3 construct at a concentration of 10 ⁇ g/ml and incubating for 120 mins at 37 0 C, followed by washing.
- pcv packed cell volume
- CAPTURE-FSL-SYPH3TM plates were then prepared mutatis mutandis according to the methods described in Sinor et al (1989), Sinor et al (1990) and Sinor and Eatz (1991).
- a MICROTITRETM plate having a plurality of recessed wells is first treated with a sufficient quantity of Alcian yellow at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml so that all of the wells are covered by the Alcian yellow solution.
- the Alcian yellow solution is allowed to remain in contact with the MICROTITRETM plate for about 30 minutes and excess dye solution is removed.
- a monolayer of the SYPH3-10 kodecytes is formed on the stained plate by addition of 100 ⁇ L of a 0.2% (v/v) suspension of the SYPH3-10 kodecytes in saline or reagent RBC diluent per well.
- the SYPH3-10 kodecytes are allowed to settle by gravity for one hour at room temperature.
- the plate is then washed at least two times with isotonic saline to remove unbound SYPH3-10 kodecytes by an automatic washing apparatus or by manual methods.
- the MICROTITRETM plate is then placed in an inverted position into a foil packet or pouch having at least two, 2 g capacity molecular sieve dessicant packets therein.
- the pouch is sealed with heat and dried for seven days at 2°to 8 0 C.
- the CAPTURE-S plates and the CAPTURE-FSL-SYPH3 plates are each used according to the standard test method. Briefly, the foil package containing each plate is opened and one drop of a biological fluid such as serum or plasma or a control is added to each. Two drops of a 19 g/L solution of glycine with a preservative and a dye for colour is also added to each well.
- a biological fluid such as serum or plasma or a control
- Two drops of a 19 g/L solution of glycine with a preservative and a dye for colour is also added to each well.
- the solutions are allowed to incubate in the wells at 37 0 C for 15 minutes. After the incubation period, the wells of the MICROTITRETM plate are washed three times with saline, preferably by an automatic washing apparatus such as the Bio-Tek model EL- 402.
- the MICROTITRETM plate is centrifuged at 450 x G for one minute. The plate is then examined for adherence or lack of adherence of the indicator RBCs to the erythrocyte cell monolayer ( Figure 2) .
- a positive reaction is seen by adherence of the indicator red cells over the reaction surface.
- a negative reaction forms a discreet button of indicator red cells at the bottom of the wells showing no adherence ( Figure 2) .
- the biological fluid being tested has antibodies directed towards the erythrocyte cell monolayer, it binds to the erythrocyte monolayers.
- the anti—IgG coated indicator RBCs correspondingly bind to the antibody thus bound when they are added to the wells. This gives the positive reaction.
- the anti-IgG coated indicator RBCs will have no complimentary immunologically component to bind to and will collect at the bottom of the well as a discreet button.
- Test Method 1 CAPTURE-S
- Test Method 2 CAPTURE-FSL-SYPH3
- Test method 1 +ve assay 20 0
- Test Method 2 (CAPTURE-FSL-SYPH3) demonstrated improved sensitivity over Test Method 1 (CAPTURE-S) .
- Test Method 2 (CAPTURE-FSL-SYPH3) provides the additional advantage that the introduced antigen (F) of the FSL construct is expressed against the background antigens of the naturally occurring RBCs that are modified to provide the kodecytes.
- diacylglycerol 2-phosphate could be substituted for phosphatidate (diacylglycerol 3-phosphate) and that the absolute configuration of phosphatidate could be either R or S.
