H5N1亚型禽流感病毒NS1基因的原核表达及其ELISA检测方法的建立

采用RT-PCR技术扩增了禽流感病毒（AIV）A／Goose／HLJ／p46／2003（H5N1）的NSl基因，将其克隆于融合蛋白表达载体pMAL-c2X上，转化DH5α大肠埃希氏菌感受态细胞，经BamHⅠ和HindⅢ双酶切鉴定及序列分析，表明筛选到了重组质粒pc2X-NS1。SDS-PAGE电泳结果显示，重组质粒转化TB1大肠埃希氏菌后，经0．3mmol／L的IPTG诱导，融合蛋白MBP-NS1得到大量表达，融合蛋白以可溶形式存在，分子质量约为67ku。Western-blotting检测结果表明，融合蛋白MBP-NS1能够与H5N1亚型AIV活病毒感染康复鸭血清发生特异性反应，而不能够与H5N1亚型AIV灭活疫苗免疫鸭血清发生反应。试验初步建立了以纯化的融合蛋白MBP-NS1为包被抗原的间接ELISA检测方法，为AIV灭活疫苗免疫家禽与AIV感染家禽的鉴别诊断奠定了基础。

Relationship between the intracellular calcium concentration changes and left ventricular hypertrophy and function in the spontaneously hypertensive rats

AIM:To elucidate the relationship between the intracellular calcium concentration changes and left ventricular hypertrophy and function in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).METHODS:Intracellular free calcium concentrations were measured by Fura 2 methodology and left ventricular function quantitated by cardiac catheterization in 20 SHR aged 10, 22, and 34 weeks and 20 age-matched Wistar-kyoto (WKY) rats.RESULTS:(1) The systolic blood pressure(SBP), intracellular calcium concentrations and left ventricular mass / body weight index (LVM/BW) were significantly higher in all three age groups of SHR than the corresponding groups of WKY; (2) Compared with age-matched WKY groups, the peak left ventricular pressure descending rate(-dp／dt_max) decreased while left ventricular relaxation time constant (τ)increased significantly in SHR aged 22 and 34 weeks. The peak left ventricular pressure ascending rate(dp／dt_max) and the left ventricular contractility index were significantly increased only in the 34 weeks SHR; (3) Intracellular calcium concentrations showed a positive correlation with LVM/BW,SBP,-dp／dt_max and τ(r=0.47-0.83,P<0.01)and a negative correlation with dp／dt_max and the left ventricular contractility index (r=-0.46,P<0.05 and r=-0.81, P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Intracellular calcium overload is one of the potential mechanisms in the induction of left ventricular hypertrophy as well as of systolic and diastolic dysfunction.

Sca-1+ cells from mouse fetal liver can differentiate into neurons in vitro

AIM: To study whether Sca-1⁺ cells from fetal liver can be induced to differentiate into neuronal cells in vitro. METHODS:Sca-1⁺cells from 14 5-days-old murine fetal liver were isolated with a magnetic cell sorting kit, and were cultured in Dulbecco s modif ied Eagle s medium(DMEM)/F12 supplemented with 10%fetal bovine serum(FBS), and passaged at a rat io of 1 3 when cells reached more than 80%confluence.The 5 passage cells were induced by 10^-3mol/Lβ-mercaptoethanol(β-ME)and 5×10^-7 mol/L all-trans-retinoic acid(RA)for 24 hours, and then incubated in serum-free medium for 5 hours to 5 days.The characteristics of treated cel s were assayed by immunocytochemistry staining analysis at 5 hours, or 5 days.RESULTS: Cells treated with β-ME and RA exhibited neuronal phenotype and expressed neuron-specific protein such as neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN), neuronfilament-M, and neuron-specific tubulin-1 (TuJ-1) but not tau, MAP-2, or the astrocyte-specific marker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP).CONCLUSION: Sca-1⁺ cells from fetal liver, of which most are regarded as hematopoietic stem cells, could differentiate into early immature neuronal cells in vitro. These findings suggest that Sca-1⁺ cells from fetal liver may be an alternative source in cell therapy and gene therapy of neural dysfunction.     

The transdifferentiation of Sca-1+ cells from murine fetal liver

AIM:To explore transdifferentiation potential of Sca-1⁺ cells from murine fetal liver. METHODS:2×10³ of Sca-1⁺ cells from male murine fetal liver were transfused into female mouse irradiated lethally with γ ray from ⁶⁰ Co source (10 Gy) via tail vein. Two months later, FISH and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the situation for transdifferentiating of the donor cells (male cells) in tissues of female recipient mouse. RESULTS:The renal tubular epitheliocyte-like and neurocyte-like cells with Y chromosome were found on the sections of renal and brain tissues from female recipient mice. These cells have phenotype characteristics of RCA⁺/CD₄₅^-F_4/80^- and NueN⁺/CD₄₅^-F_4/80^-, respectively. CONCLUSION:The evidence is provided for Sca-1⁺ cells from murine fetal liver to transdifferentiate into both renal and brain tissue cells.
