NPTX2基因又稱為神經(jīng)元活性調(diào)節(jié)正五聚體蛋白(neuronal activity-regulated pentraxin, Narp)。目前針對(duì)該蛋白研究較多地集中在神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)疾病中,如癲癇發(fā)作和帕金森病[6-9],在胰腺疾病的研究尚少。為此,本文將NPTX2基因轉(zhuǎn)染人胰腺癌細(xì)胞株P(guān)ANC1,為后續(xù)的研究奠定基礎(chǔ)。
利用表達(dá)系統(tǒng)在哺乳動(dòng)物細(xì)胞內(nèi)表達(dá)目的基因是研究基因功能及其相互作用的重要手段。在各種表達(dá)系統(tǒng)中,最早被采用的是原核表達(dá)系統(tǒng),這也是目前掌握最為成熟的表達(dá)系統(tǒng)[10]。其優(yōu)點(diǎn)在于能夠在較短時(shí)間內(nèi)獲得基因表達(dá)產(chǎn)物,且所需成本相對(duì)低廉。但該系統(tǒng)存在許多難以克服的缺點(diǎn),如原核表達(dá)缺乏轉(zhuǎn)錄后修飾。為此,許多學(xué)者將原核基因調(diào)控系統(tǒng)引入真核基因調(diào)控領(lǐng)域,基因工程研究中常用的真核表達(dá)系統(tǒng)有酵母表達(dá)系統(tǒng)、昆蟲細(xì)胞表達(dá)系統(tǒng)和哺乳動(dòng)物細(xì)胞表達(dá)系統(tǒng)[11]。
本研究采用哺乳動(dòng)物表達(dá)系統(tǒng)pcDNA3.1(+)。
它不僅含有氨芐青霉素抗性可用于原核擴(kuò)增,還含有新霉素抗性可用G418篩選穩(wěn)定表達(dá)株。我們將人NPTX2全長(zhǎng)cDNA成功地插入pcDNA3.1(+)載體的CMV啟動(dòng)子下游,構(gòu)建NPTX2真核表達(dá)載體。經(jīng)酶切、PCR和測(cè)序鑒定正確無誤后,通過脂質(zhì)體介導(dǎo)將pcDNA3.1(+)-NPTX2重組質(zhì)粒轉(zhuǎn)染PANC1細(xì)胞,通過G418篩選建立了穩(wěn)定轉(zhuǎn)染細(xì)胞系。采用實(shí)時(shí)定量PCR和Western blotting分別從轉(zhuǎn)錄和翻譯水平檢測(cè)到NPTX2基因的表達(dá),表明重組的人NPTX2基因在PANC1細(xì)胞中能有效地被轉(zhuǎn)錄和翻譯,成功地建立了一個(gè)在基因組DNA中穩(wěn)定整合有pcDNA3.1(+)-NPTX2載體的PANC1細(xì)胞系。
