简介:目的:观察外源给予H2O2对C2C12细胞中UII/UT系统表达的影响。方法:培养小鼠肌原细胞系C2C12细胞株,应用胎盘蓝染色和测定细胞培养液中LDH的含量检测H2O2对细胞损伤的影响,应用放射免疫的方法检测细胞培养液和裂解液中UII的含量,应用RT-PCR法测定C2C12中UTmRNA的表达,应用WesternBlot检测不同浓度H2O2对肌原细胞系C2C12中UT蛋白表达的影响。结果:外源给予不同浓度的H2O2,C2C12细胞裂解液中UII的含量各组间无明显差异,但增加了细胞孵育液中UII的含量,10-4M和10-3M时分别增加了83.1%(p〈0.01)和94.5%(P〈0.01)。低浓度H2O2(0.5×10-6M,10-6M,10-5M,10-4M)刺激明显增加了UTmRNA的表达,而高浓度的H2O2(10-3M)刺激反而使UTmRNA的表达降低。高浓度的H2O2(10-6M,10-5M,10-4M,10-3M)刺激使UT蛋白表达分别增加了200.1%、255.6%、111.1%和100.1%(均p〈0.05)。结论:H2O2作为T2DM发病因素之一的活性氧族,可能是T2DM时骨骼肌组织中UII/UT系统表达增加的一个因素。

简介:目的:检测Y2HGold酵母株中表达的hPROKR2C端蛋白是否有毒性及自激活,为后期利用酵母双杂交技术研究hPROKR2C端相互作用蛋白奠定基础。方法:构建酵母双杂交载体pGBKT7-hPROKR2-Ct质粒,将其转入酵母感受态中验证其是否表达并计算转化率;通过观察SD/-Trp平板上酵母菌落生长状态进行hPROKR2C端蛋白的毒性检测;通过观察SD/-Trp、SDO/-Trp/X、SDO/-Trp/X/Aba平板上酵母菌落生长状态进行hPROKR2C端蛋白自活性检测。结果:构建了酵母双杂交载体pGBKT7-hPROKR2-Ct,将其转入酵母感受态中,转化率为8.5×104cfu/μg;毒性及自活性检测均显示hPROKR2C端蛋白对酵母菌株无毒性、不具有自活性。结论:可以利用酵母双杂交系统研究hPROKR2C端相互作用蛋白。
简介:目的:在pEGFP-C2真核表达载体中表达人NDRG2基因的截短部分并进行鉴定。方法:以含有人NDRG2基因的pGKBT7质粒为模板,通过PCR的方法扩增获得截短的人NDRG2基因,然后克隆入表达载体pEGFP-C2;以荧光显微镜观察和WesternBlotting方法对表达产物进行鉴定。结果:表达产物中在分子量67kD左右可见与目的蛋白分子量相符的条带,该条带可被Ndrg2单克隆抗体特异性识别。结论:构建了截短的人NDRG2基因真核表达载体,并在真核细胞中(HEK-293)获得成功表达。
简介:小道,肿瘤坏死因素相关的导致apoptosisligand,是一个新奇有势力通过房间表面死亡受体Trail-R1和Trail-R2的激活的房间死亡小径的内长的使活跃之物。它的角色象在导致激活的房间死亡(AICD)的FasL一样,在免疫系统被表明了。然而,小道的机制导致了apoptosis遗体不清楚。在这份报告,重组体小道蛋白质被表示并且净化。导致apoptosis活动和JurkatT房间上的重组体小道的规定机制是探索试管内。Trypan蓝排除试金证明重组体小道蛋白质活跃地以一种剂量依赖者方式杀死了JurkatT房间。在JurkatT房间的导致小道的apoptosis被Bcl-2显著地在Bcl-2基因transfected房间在表示上减少。有PMA(phorbol12十四酸盐13醋酸盐)的处理,PKC使活跃之物,在JurkatT房间的压制的导致小道的apoptosis。由PMA的apoptosis的抑制被预告的处理与二度废除,一个PKC禁止者。总起来说,Bcl-2在表示上和PMA激活PKC,这被建议活跃地下面调整在JurkatT的调停小道的apoptosis房间。
简介:目的:利用基因定点突变的方法将葡萄球菌肠毒素C2(SEC2)的31位定点突变,以获得抑瘤效果增强的肠毒素。方法:利用基因定点突变的方法,将SEC2中31位的His用Asn替代,转入大肠杆菌中诱导表达,采用CM弱阳离子层析柱纯化蛋白,并用SDS-PAGE和Western印迹对其进行鉴定,通过MTS法检测其体外抗肿瘤活性。结果:构建了突变体蛋白SEC2(H31N),并在大肠杆菌中实现了高效表达。体外实验表明,在相同浓度下,SEC2(H31N)对多种肿瘤细胞的抑制作用明显优于野生型SEC2,尤其在低浓度下此现象更为明显。对于5个受试细胞株,SEC2(H31N)的IC50均低于SEC2;SEC2(H31N)浓度分别为0.01~10、0.01和0.1ng/mL时,对肿瘤细胞SMMC-7721、HepG2、A549的生长抑制率与SEC2相比均显著提高。结论:同野生型SEC2相比,突变体蛋白SEC2(H31N)对肿瘤生长的抑制作用得到了提高。
