Establishment of Fetal Large-tailed Han Sheep Fibroblasts Cell Line Transfected with Lipofectamine 2000 Vector Containing TLR4 Gene

Exploiting the method of liposome transfection to obtain modified Toll-like receptors 4(TLR4) gene fibroblast cells as competent donor, build reconstructed embryos, which finally produced transfected TLR4 gene and gender controllable Large-tailed Han sheep by somatic cell nuclear transfer technology.In this study, through primary culturing the fetus dermal fibroblasts from Large-tailed Han sheep, to identify the SRY gene gender.Using the method of liposome transfection transferred TLR4 gene into fibroblast cells, then detected whether TLR4 gene expression stably or not in morphology level and molecular level respectively, transplanting fibroblast cells which stably expressed TLR4 gene into oocytes without nucleus from Large-tailed Han sheep for building reconstructed embryos.To harvest 5 positive clones by fibroblast cells with stable expression level of TLR4.According to the identification of the SRY gene gender, the cell lines were female.The analysis of Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR, the fourth generation of transfected cells had the highest expression level of TLR4, which were higher than control group in 7.4816 times (P<0.01).The cleavage reconstructed embryos had stable expression level of EGFP.We succeeded in building reconstructed embryos with TLR4 gene and lay the foundation for producing the disease-resistant and gender controllable transgenic sheep in the future.
