Effects of recombinant gene lentivirus containing LIM mineralization protein-1 on proliferation effect and expression of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in rats / 中国骨伤

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore method of recombinant gene lentivirus containing LIM mineralization protein-1 (LMP-1) in transfecting bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC), and to observe the effect of gene LMP-1 on proliferation effect and expression of BMSC.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Six clean SD rats aged 4 weeks were selected, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were extracted under sterile conditions and cultured to the third generation, then divided into three groupscontrol group (the third generation of BMSC), lentiviral vector transfection group (PGC-FU-GFP and Polybrene were injected into the third generation of BMSC) and recombinant gene transfection group (PGC-FU-LMP-1-GFP and Polybrene transfection were injected into the third generation of BMSC). After 48 hours' transfection, fluorescent expression were detected under immuno-fluorescence microscopy; lentiviral transfection efficiency were detected by flow cytometry; effect of lentiviral transfection on BMSC were evaluated by MTT; gene expression of transfected cells were determined by Western Blot.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>1) The third generation of BMSC was cultured successfully,and transfected with MOI100. After 48 hours, green fluorescent expression were detected and transfection efficiency was 67% under immuno-fluorescence microscopy; 2) Compared to control group, there were no statistical differences between control group and other two groups; 3) Western blot teast showed that 72KDa specific band was observed in recombinant gene transfection group and its size was similar to LMP-1 fusion protein (50 kDa+28 kDa=78 kDa).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is no effect of recombinant gene lentivirus containing LIM on BMSC, and can effectively influence the expression of LMP-1.</p>
