前列腺素受体HA标签小鼠的鉴定

前列腺素是一类有重要生理活性的不饱和脂肪酸衍生物,其通过结合特异性的受体发挥生理功能。前列腺素受体缺乏特异性的抗体,这极大制约着前列腺素信号直接的深入解析。本文旨在鉴定及验证"人造精子"和CRISPR-Cas9联合应用构建的氨基端(-NH2,-N)带HA标签的9种前列腺素受体小鼠。通过将向导RNA表达质粒和带标签的打靶载体质粒转入"人造精子细胞",筛选出含HA标签的"人造精子细胞"。进一步将标签细胞注射到小鼠卵母细胞中并移植入假孕母鼠体内,获得标签小鼠。提取前列腺素受体HA标签小鼠的基因组DNA,利用PCR技术检测小鼠的基因型。分离小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞,通过Western blot方法验证带HA标签的前列腺素受体的蛋白表达情况。结果显示,前列腺素受体HA标签小鼠能扩增出特异性的DNA条带,并且巨噬细胞蛋白中可检测出特定HA蛋白条带的表达,野生型小鼠则没有相应条带。综上可知,我们成功制备了9种前列腺素受体-N-HA标签小鼠,为进一步研究前列腺素信号在体内及体外的病理生理功能提供强有力的工具。

Over expression of bone morphogenetic protein-3b (BMP-3b) using an adenoviral vector promote the osteoblastic differentiation in C2C12 cells and augment the bone formation induced by bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) in rats

BMP-3b is a novel BMP-3-related protein and its biological functions are unknown. In order to investigate the biological actions of BMP-3b, we constructed a BMP-3b-expressing recombinant adenoviral vector (AxCAKBMP-3b). We show that over expression of BMP-3b stimulated the induction of differentiation and the osteoinduction activity of a human BMP-2-expressing recombinant adenoviral vector (AxCAOBMP-2). C2C12 cells were infected in vitro with AxCAKBMP-3b, AxCAOBMP-2 and a control vector containing no foreign genes (AxCAwt). Cells infected with AxCAOBMP-2 and AxCAKBMP-3b produced more alkaline phosphatase and secreted more osteocalcin into the culture medium than cells infected with AxCAOBMP-2 and AxCAwt. When AxCAOBMP-2, AxCAKBMP-3b, and AxCAwt were injected into the calf muscles of nude rats (F 344/N Jcl-rnu), the osteoinduction seen with AxCAOBMP-2 and AxCAKBMP-3b was greater than that seen with AxCAOBMP-2 and AxCAwt.

Expression, purification and osteogenic bioactivity of recombinant human BMP-4, -9, -10, -11 and -14

Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are cytokines from the TGF-β superfamily, with important roles during embryonic development and in the induction of bone and cartilage tissue differentiation in the adult body. In this contribution, we report the expression of recombinant human BMP-4, BMP-9, BMP-10, BMP-11 (or growth differentiation factor-11, GDF-11) and BMP-14 (GDF-5), using Escherichia coli pET-25b vector. BMPs were overexpressed, purified by affinity his-tag chromatography and shown to induce the expression of early markers of bone differentiation (e.g. smad-1, smad-5, runx2/cbfa1, dlx5, osterix, osteopontin, bone sialoprotein and alkaline phosphatase) in C2C12 cells and in human adipose stem cells. The described approach is a promising method for producing large amounts of different recombinant BMPs that show potential for novel biomedical applications.     

Analysis of cartilage maturation using micromass cultures of primary chondrocytes

A micromass culture (MM-C) system of primary immature chondrocytes for functional analysis of soluble factors involved in the maturation step of cartilage was previously developed. Ectopically expressed BMP-2 was shown to induce the expression of the Ihh and Noggin genes. Here it is demonstrated that, upon longer culture, secreted bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) further promotes the maturation step as judged by the induction of type X collagen and BMP-6 expression, which are known to be detectable in the later phase of cartilage maturation. Induction of all of these genes by secreted BMP-2 was not inhibited by ectopic expression of parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) induced by retrovirus vector infection, although the same virus vector showed strong inhibitory effects on the expression of type X collagen gene or alkaline phosphatase activity in mature chondrocytes. These results suggest that the maturation-promoting activity exhibited by BMP-2 is dominant over the suppressive effect of PTHrP in immature chondrocytes. When the BMP-6 gene was introduced into the same virus vector as that used for BMP-2, it induced the same sets of genes (Ihh, Noggin, type X collagen and endogenous BMP-6) as BMP-2 did. These results also suggest that BMP-6 would autonomously maintain and/or promote a later stage of chondrocytic maturation.     

Expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2 via adenoviral vector in C2C12 myoblasts induces differentiation into the osteoblast lineage.

To examine the effectiveness of a gene transfer of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 into C2C12 myoblasts, we constructed a human BMP-2-expressing replication-deficient adenoviral vector, AxCAOBMP-2. C2C12 cells were infected in vitro with either this viral vector or an Escherichia coli LacZ gene-expressing control adenovirus vector. An efficient gene transfer to the C2C12 cells was confirmed with the LacZ gene-expressing vector by X-gal staining. Abundant BMP-2 expression in C2C12 cells infected with this viral vector was confirmed by immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis. C2C12 cells transferred with the BMP-2 gene by this vector produced alkaline phosphatase in the cells and also produced and secreted osteocalcin in the culture medium, demonstrating that a gene transfer of BMP-2 into C2C12 cells in vitro could convert these cells from myoblast to osteoblast lineage.
