Expression of recombinant rat Neurotrophin-3 in Chinese hamster ovary cells

The CHO cell line stably producing recombinant rat NT-3 was established. The insertion of rNT-3 cDNA into transferred cell gonome was analyzed with Southern blot. The expressed protein was identified by Dot ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and Western blot. Western blot showed a clear specifie band of about 14 ku for NT-3. The mean level of rNT-3 in four NT-3eDNA/CHO cell lines was about 2 100 ng/10~6 cells/48 h determined by EIA. The conditioned-medium (CM) of NT-3cDNA/CHO cells could promote the fiber outgrowth of the dissociated dorsal root ganglion of 8-day-old chick embryos, which shows a dose-response relationship. A half-maximal concentration of the biological activity (EC50) of the recombinant protein was approximately 16.7 ng/mL. The MoAb 3W3 of NT-3 could neutralize the biological activity of the rNT-3.

Purification and characterization of biologically active recombinant human neurotrophin-3 produced by expression of a chimera gene in Chinese hamster ovary cells

In order to obtain high-level expression of recombinant human neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), we constructed several types of expression plasmids and examined several cell lines for expression of the human NT-3 gene. The highest level production of the recombinant protein was attained in Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with an expression plasmid that contains a chimera gene encoding the human nerve growth factor (NGF) prepro-region and human NT-3 mature-region under control of a murine leukemia virus-derived long terminal repeat (MuLV-LTR). This cell line can produce more than 1 mg recombinant human NT-3/1 conditioned medium. The recombinant protein was purified to apparent homogeneity with a cation exchange column, a gel filtration column and a reversed-phase HPLC column with a recovery of about 30%. The purified NT-3, at a concentration as low as 0.2 ng/ml, induced neurite out-growth in neurons prepared from 8-day-old chick embryonic dorsal root ganglia; however, it showed little neurotrophic effect on rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells, which are known to be NGF-responding cells. In addition, this protein promoted colony formation by human peripheral blood lymphocytes in soft agar culture.

Expression of equine interleukin-18 by baculovirus expression system and its biologic activity

The equine interleukin-18 (IL-18) cDNA that contains the coding sequence was cloned and a recombinant baculovirus, named AcEIL-18, was constructed. The recombinant protein of the equine IL-18 was expressed by AcEIL-18 and its expression was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blotting. Insect cells infected with AcEIL-18 secreted a precursor IL-18 with 24 kilo dalton (kDa) into the culture supernatant.

Purification of recombinant activin A using the second follistatin domain of follistatin-related gene (FLRG)

Activins are multifunctional growth factors belonging to the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. Isolation of activins from natural sources requires many steps and only produces limited quantities. Even though recombinant preparations have been used in recent studies, purification of recombinant activins still requires multiple steps. To purify recombinant activin A, we have developed a simple method using the second follistatin domain of an activin-binding protein follistatin-related gene (FLRG). An affinity column was prepared with a partial FLRG fusion protein. The partial FLRG protein contained the second follistatin domain and the C-terminus acidic domain, and was tagged with six histidine residues at its N-terminus. The fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified with nickel affinity column. Thereafter, the purified fusion protein was coupled to NHS-activated column. Recombinant activin A was produced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, which were stably transfected with rat inhibin/activin betaA-subunit cDNA. After 48-h suspension culture of the cells in a serum free medium, the culture media was recovered and passed through the FLRG-coupled column. After washing with phosphate-buffered saline, bound protein was eluted out with an acidic buffer. Any significant contaminations were not detected when the purified protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Apparent sizes of the protein were 14 and 28 kDa under the reduced and non-reduced conditions, respectively. Western blot analysis confirmed that the purified protein was activin A. The purified recombinant activin stimulated p3TP-lux reporter activity in CHO cells and follicle-stimulating hormone secretion from rat pituitary cells.
