【摘要】 动脉粥样硬化是一种动脉血管壁慢性炎症性疾病,其确切机制还未完全阐明,很多因素可促进其发生发展。而趋化因子是炎症的关键调节因子。基质细胞衍生因子SDF-1α(stromal cell derived- factor 1 alpha)是一类具有趋化活性的细胞因子,研究证实它在造血干细胞迁移及归巢、恶性肿瘤尤其血液肿瘤的浸润转移以其HIV感染方面发挥着重要作用。近几年来SDF-1α在动脉硬化性疾病中的作用也开始引起重视。本研究应用RT-PCR法从大鼠血管平滑肌细胞(Vascular smooth muscle cells,Vsmcs;)中克隆出SDF-1α基因,并对其序列进行初步的生物信息学分析;然后构建EGFP-C1- SDF-1α重组质粒进行亚细胞定位分析;最后构建重组质粒pcDNA3.1-SDF-1α,研究其对单核细胞的趋化作用。目的:克隆大鼠SDF-1α基因,并对大鼠SDF-1α基因序列进行分析;分析SDF-1α蛋白亚细胞定位;探讨重组SDF-1α蛋白对单核细胞的趋化作用。方法:从大鼠Vsmcs中提取mRNA,用RT-PCR从中扩增出SDF-1α基因,将扩增片段克隆于pMD-T18载体中,转化DH5α菌;进行蓝白筛选后,运用PCR和酶切鉴定并DNA测序;利用生物信息学方法对SDF-1α基因的序列进行分析。构建EGFP-C1- SDF-1α表达载体,酶切鉴定,脂质体转染法将重组质粒瞬时转染Ecv304内皮细胞株,48h后用荧光显微镜检测绿色荧光蛋白表达;构建重组质粒pcDNA3.1-SDF-1α,脂质体转染法转染Ecv304内皮细胞株,经G418筛选阳性克隆,RT-PCR验证,建立SDF-1α转基因稳定表达细胞系,再用小室迁移实验来研究SDF-1α对THP-1单核细胞的趋化作用。结果: PCR扩增得到378bp的基因片段,经酶切初步证实为SDF-1α基因;阳性克隆经筛选鉴定连接有目的基因;目的基因测序结果与GeneBank上序列比较,结果完全一致,表明靶基因成功插入pMD–T;用脂质体转染法将重组质粒EGFP-C1- SDF-1α瞬时转染内皮细胞,发现绿色荧光蛋白主要在细胞质中表达;用脂质体转染法将重组质粒pcDNA3.1-SDF-1α转染法转染内皮细胞,经G418筛选阳性克隆,RT-PCR验证,表明建立了SDF-1α转基因稳定表达细胞系,小室迁移试验发现SDF-1α对THP-1单核细胞的具有明显趋化作用。结论:成功克隆了SDF-1α基因,SDF-1α蛋白主要在细胞质中表达,重组的SDF-1α对单核细胞具有趋化作用。
【Abstract】 Atherosclerosis is now viewed as an inflammatory disease of the vascular system, there are so many factors involve in enhancing its development, yet its mechanism remains unclear. Stromal cell–derived factor-1 (SDF-1) is a sort of chemotactic cytokines. Recent publications indicate that the SDF-1αplays a pivotal role during development and in many patho-physiological conditions including hematopoiesis,cancer metastasis,and HIV infection.Latest, SDF-1αis discoveried to be highly expressed in atherosclerosis plaque, so its role in atherosclerosis has been highlighted.In this study, using RT-PCR to amplify SDF-1αgene form rat VSMCs, and analyzing its sequence by bioinformatics. pEGFP-C1-SDF-1αfusion mammalian expression protein was constructed and to observe how did Express in the ECV-304 cells. The fusion mammalian expression protein pcDNA3.1-SDF-1αwere constructed and to to study the effect of SDF-1αon THP-1 cells chemotaxis.Objective To amplify and clone SDF-1αgene and to predict its function by bioinformatics analysis;To observate that pEGFP-SDF-1αwas expressed in the ECV-304;To explore the effect of SDF-1αon THP-1 cells chemotaxis.Methods mRNA was extracted from rat VSMCs, SDF-1αgene was amplified reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) ;The PCR fragment was inserted into pMD-T18 easy plasmid,and then was transformed into DH5α.After the selection of blue/white screening,the recombinant plasmid was identified by restriction enzyme digest,PCR and sequencing. Function of SDF-1αwas predicted by bioinformatics analysis with Internet and GeneBank databse. pEGFP-SDF-1αfusion mammalian expression protein was constructed and transfected into the ECV-304 cells. Observation under the fluorescent microscopy showed that pEGFP-SDF-1αwas expressed. The fusion mammalian expression protein pcDNA3.1/SDF-1αwere constructed and transfected into the ECV-304 cells, and established stable cell line,then explored the effect of SDF-1αon THP-1 cells chemotaxis with transwell permeable supports.Results The length of the DNA fragment RT-PCR amplified by mRNA was 378 base pairs,which was conformed by enzyme EcoRⅠcutting identification.The correctness of linking between SDF-1αand pMD-T18 easy was verified through selection of blue/white screening,and the sequence of DNA fragment were homology with corresponding published in GenBank,which indicated that the target gene has been inserted into pMD-T18 successfully. pEGFP-SDF-1αfusion protein was transfected into ECV-304 cells using Liposome and showed that pEGFP-SDF-1αwas expressed and existed in the plasma membrane and cytoplasm. pcDNA3.1/SDF-1αplasmid was transfected into ECV-304cells using Liposome ,the positive clones were screened by G418 and the expression of SDF-1αgene in the transfected ECV-304 cells were detected by RT- PCR ,and it showed that it has been established stable cell line. THP-1 chemotaxis was examined with transwell permeable supports and showed that SDF-1αisimplicated in THP-1 cells chemotaxis.Conclusion The SDF-1αgene was cloned successfully.The SDF-1αprotein was expressed mainly in the cytoplasm and effect on THP-1 cells chemotaxis
