基于活体成像的表达人PSCA抗原的小鼠肿瘤模型的建立

目的:探讨并建立可供药物评价或生物学功能研究的表达人PSCA抗原的荧光素酶小鼠肿瘤模型。方法:克隆人PSCA基因及荧光素酶基因luc,构建真核表达质粒pcDNA-PSCA及pcDNA-luc,共转染RM-1细胞株;照度计检测转染细胞的荧光素酶活性,RT-PCR及流式细胞术检测PSCA的表达,筛选出共表达荧光素酶及人PSCA的RM-PSCA/luc细胞株;将RM-PSCA/luc细胞接种C57BL/6小鼠,观察所致肿瘤的生长情况及小鼠存活状况,并对小鼠进行活体成像检测Luc的表达;采用免疫组织化学染色方法检测人PSCA在小鼠肿瘤组织中的表达。结果:筛选到了稳定共表达Luc及人PSCA抗原的RM-PSCA/luc细胞,接种实验小鼠全部成瘤,肿瘤生长迅速,小鼠平均存活38天;转染荧光素酶基因的肿瘤细胞生物特性稳定,活体成像仪检测到转染荧光素酶细胞在小鼠体内活体成像,荧光素酶表达活性的强弱能够反映肿瘤大小;免疫组织化学染色方法检测到小鼠肿瘤组织PSCA的表达。结论:成功构建了可用于活体成像表达人PSCA抗原的小鼠肿瘤模型,为相关肿瘤药物及疫苗的研发奠定基础。

In vivo Bioluminescence Imaging of Luc Labeled Human PSCA-expressed Tumor in Mouse Model

Objectives:To establish a tumor model in mouse with expressing Luc and human PSCA for the development of new anti-tumor drugs or vaccines.Methods:The Luc and human PSCA genes were cloned and pcDNA-luc and pcDNA-PSCA plasmids were constructed.RM-1 cells were stably transfected with both pcDNA-luc and pcDNA-PSCA plasmids.The Luc-expressed cells were examined with luminometer and the PSCA-expressed cells were examined with RT-PCR and flow cytometry analysis.The male C57BL/6 mice were inoculated with RM-PSCA/Lu...
