Two novel genes, SJCWL05 and SJCWL06, were harvested from screening of Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) cercaria cDNA library by using pig sera vaccinated (VPS) with S. japonicum immature egg ws-vaccine (S. japonicum iEw). Prokaryotic recombinant plasmids pGEX-4T-1/SJCWL05 and pGEX-4T-1/SJCWL06 were constructed to analyze their immunogenicity, which was confirmed by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Two eukaryotic recombinant plasmids, pcDNA3/SJCWL05 and pcDNA3/SJCWL06, were constructed, and their ability to protect mice against challenge of S. japonicum was evaluated. All mice vaccinated with pcDNA3/SJCWL05 or pcDNA3/SJCWL06 developed ELISA-specific anti-S. japonicum SIEA (S. japonicum soluble immature egg antigens) antibody. Immunoprotection experiments showed that worms and liver eggs reduced 34.64% and 39.14% in the pcDNA3/SJCWL05 group and those reduced 27.17% and 27.95% in the pcDNA3/SJCWL06 group, respectively. The reduction rates of intestine and uterine eggs in female worms of both groups reached 39.45% and 38.5% as well as 30.02% and 28.7%, respectively. Results of our study suggest that novel genes, SJCWL05 and SJCWL06, are potential vaccine candidates against schistosomiasis japonica.
