背景信息

**Background of OV16 Recombinant Protein**

OV16 is a recombinant protein antigen derived from *Onchocerca volvulus*, the parasitic nematode responsible for onchocerciasis (river blindness), a neglected tropical disease transmitted by blackfly bites. The disease primarily affects populations in sub-Saharan Africa, Yemen, and parts of Latin America, causing severe dermatological and ocular manifestations, including irreversible blindness. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as skin snip microscopy to detect microfilariae, are invasive, labor-intensive, and lack sensitivity in low-infection settings.

The OV16 antigen, identified as a 16-kDa protein, was developed to address these diagnostic challenges. It is a key biomarker for detecting human IgG4 antibodies specific to *O. volvulus* infections. Recombinant production of OV16 via *Escherichia coli* expression systems ensures scalability and consistency, overcoming limitations of native parasite antigens, which are difficult to purify and standardize.

OV16-based serological assays, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), offer non-invasive, high-sensitivity/specificity tools for mapping infection prevalence, monitoring mass drug administration (MDA) programs, and verifying elimination efforts. Its utility is particularly significant in post-treatment surveillance, as it helps distinguish recent exposures from historical infections—a critical factor in evaluating intervention success.

Endorsed by the WHO, OV16 has been integrated into onchocerciasis control programs, aiding the shift from morbidity control to elimination goals. Ongoing research explores its potential in multiplex platforms for co-endemic diseases (e.g., lymphatic filariasis) and vaccine development. Despite challenges, such as cross-reactivity with related helminths in some regions, OV16 remains a cornerstone in the global fight against river blindness, exemplifying the role of targeted biotechnology in combating neglected tropical diseases.
