ABSTRACT
AIM:
To determine tissue distribution of rat ?-defensin rBD-1 gene expression.METHODS:
Total RNA was isolated from 10 kinds of rat tissues. RT-PCR were performed with primers (R 1 5′→3′ ACTCTGGACCCTGACTTCACCG; R 2 5′→3′ CCCTTGCTTGTCCTTTATGTCC). The RT-PCR products around 272 bp in size were cloned into pGEM-T easy vector and the recombinant clones were analyzed by digestion with restriction endonucleases and DNA sequencing.RESULTS:
Rat ?-defensin rBD-1 transcripts were found in the kidney and skin, whereas its mRNA was not detected in trachea, uterus, bladder, small intestine, spleen, skeletal muscle, bone marrow and parotid. Sequence analysis confirmed that the RT-PCR product is rBD-1 cDNA.CONCLUSION:
These data suggested that ?-defensin rBD-1 may participate not only in the kidney but also in the skin natural defense against infections.
