ABSTRACT
AIM:
To construct lentiviral vector carrying the angiopoietin-1(Ang-1) gene,and make it express Ang-1 in the rat mesenchymal stem cells(rMSCs).METHODS:
The cDNA encoding the CDS of Ang-1 gene was obtained from the placenta of the adult Fisher 344 rats with RT-PCR.After digestion with restrication endonuclease,the Ang-1 gene was recombined to construct the transfer plasmid PNL-Ang1-IRES2-EGFP.The three-plasmid system of lentiviral vector was consisted of PNL-Ang1-IRES2-EGFP,the packaging plasmid HELPER,and the envelope plasmid VSVG,which were co-transfected to 293T cells mediated by lipofectamin2000 to produce lentiviral particles.The rMSCs were infected by obtained lentiviral particles.The insertion of Ang-1 gene was detected by PCR,the mRNA expression of Ang-1 in rMSCs was detected with RT-PCR,the protein expression of Ang-1 was observed with immunocytochemistry and Western blotting methods.RESULTS:
The result of sequencing showed that the cloned Ang-1 gene was consistent with the sequence reported in GenBank.After digestion with restrication endonuclease,the 1 512 bp fragment of Ang-1 gene and the 10.5 kb vector fragment of PNL-IRES2-EGFP were observed with gel electrophoresis.The insertion of Ang-1 gene in viral genome was confirmed.The EGFP expression was observed with the fluorescent microscope.In infected rMSCs,the mRNA and protein expressions of Ang-1 were confirmed.CONCLUSION:
Lentiviral vector carrying Ang-1 gene has been successfully constructed.The infected rMSCs are able to express the Ang-1 mRNA and Ang-1 abundantly.This will facilitate the following exploratory development of Ang-1 gene-modified rMSCs.
