RESUMO
The aim of the study was to construct a recombinant adenovirus overexpression vector for Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Protein-1 (SREBP-1) of Xinong Saanen dairy goat, and to detect its effect on genes related to fatty acid metabolism in goat mammary epithelial cells, to establish foundation for further study of its roles in metabolism of fatty acid synthesis and lactation. First, we designed primers based on the SREBP-1 gene sequence in GenBank for PCR amplification and inserted the sequence into shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV. The recombinant plasmid pAdTrack-CMV-SREBP-1 linearized by Pme I was transformed into E. coli BJ5183 competence cell containing the backbone vector pAdEasy-1 to obtain recombinant vector pAd-SREBP-1 by homologous recombination. pAd-SREBP-1 was linearized by Pac I and transfected into HEK 293 cell. Then we infected goat mammary epithelial cells with recombinant adenovirus which was packaged in HEK 293 cell line. The results showed that the recombinant adenovirus vector containing SREBP-1 was successfully constructed, and the titer of virus was 10(9) U/mL. Compared with the control group, mRNA level of SREBP-1 increased by about 15 times after infected for 48 h and 30 times after infected for 72 h. Fatty acid synthase (FASN) and Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) was upregulated by almost 2 times. The expression level of Peroxisome proliferator activated receptorgamma (PPARgamma) increased by 1.5 times. Liver X receptoralpha (LXRalpha) and Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) upregulated by 1.2 times compared with that of control. But Stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase (SCD) had no obvious change. In conclusion, SREBP-1 can activate the expression of genes related to fatty acid synthesis in mammary epithelial cells of Xinong Saanen dairy goat, demonstrated a regulatory function on the fatty acid metabolism in goat mammary gland.

Based on the in vitro culturing system developed for epithelial cells in mammary gland of Xinong Saanen dairy goats using tissue explant culture, high density cultivation, and continuous passaging, the cultured epithelial cells were evaluated by growth curve fitting, karyotype analysis, immunofluorescence staining (keratin, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), vimentin, beta-casein), oil red staining and RT-PCR of beta-casein gene. The results showed that the growth of epithelial cells with the model number of chromosome of 60 demonstrated a typical 'S' shape curve, the positive gene expression of keratin, EMA, vimentin and beta-casein was detected, the cytoplasmic lipid droplets were observed following the oil red staining, the cultured cells expressed the mRNA of beta-casein. In conclusion, the current in vitro culturing system can obtain the normal mammary gland epithelial cells with the function of secretion.
