Construction and expression of lentiviral vector of p62 gene over expression / 安徽医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective @#To construct lentiviral vector of p62 gene over expression , and stably express p62 gene in human monocytic leukemia cells 1 (THP 1) , and to provide a way to study the role of p62 gene at the cellular lev el .@*Methods @#The p62 gene fragment was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) , and the amplified product was ligated to the linearized pcDNA3 1 Flag PCDH10 lentiviral vector. After identifying with PCR , the PCR product was cotransfected with the packaging plasmid into human embryonic kidney cells 293 (HEK 293T) . THP 1 cells were infected with recombinant lentivirus . Positive cell clones were screened by ampicillin . Western blot and real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT qPCR) were used to detect THP 1 cell lines with high p62 expression ( overexpression group) and THP 1 cell lines transfected with empty plasmid without p62 gene ( control group) . The expression levels of TNF α, IL 1βand Cxcl1 after K. p. infection were detected by RT qPCR .@*Results @#The p62 gene fragment was successfully obtained by PCR and ligated to pcDNA3 1 Flag PCDH10 vector. PCR confirmed that p62 pcDNA3 1 Flag PCDH10 recombinant plasmid was constructed successfully. Am picillin resistant cell lines were selected after lentiviral infection of THP 1 cells . The results of Western blot analysis showed that the THP 1 cells with drug sieve survival increased the expression of P62 protein compared with the con trol cells (P < 0.001) , and RT qPCR analysis showed that the relative mRNA expression of p62 increased (P < 0.001) . THP 1 cells with high expression of P62 were successfully constructed . The levels of TNF-α、IL-1βand C xcl1 from THP 1 cells with high expression of P62 significantly increased after infection with K. p. (P < 0.01) . @*Conclusion @#P62 pcDNA3 1 Flag PCDH10 vector and THP 1 cells with high expression of P62 can be successful ly constructed by three plasmid packaging system , which provides a basis for the study of p62 .
