Abstract
The present invention provides a method for preparing a coronavirus-targeting universal DC cell vaccine, and belongs to the technical field of virus vaccine preparation. The preparation method includes the following steps: ligating a fusion gene including a HLA gene and a coronavirus antigen gene onto an expression vector to obtain a recombinant vector; then transferring the recombinant vector into antigen-presenting cells to be transfected to obtain the coronavirus-targeting universal DC cell vaccine. The universal DC cell vaccine of the present invention has a targeting property against a coronavirus, can effectively stimulate a CTL, and has a killing effect on a target cell.
Claims5
A method for preparing a coronavirus-targeting universal DC cell vaccine, comprising the following steps:
