Expression of recombinant human ?-defensin 2 in dermal multipotent stem cells and its antiseptic activity / 第三军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective To examine the expression of human ?-defensin 2 (hBD_ 2 ) recombinant adenovirus expression vector in rat dermal multipotent stem cells (dMSCs) and to observe the antiseptic activity of recombinant hBD_ 2 . Methods The expression of hBD_ 2 in dMSCs was examined by RT-PR, fluorescent immunochemistry and Western blotting, and the concentration of recombinant hBD_ 2 in supernate was measured by ELISA. The antiseptic activity of recombinant hBD_ 2 was assessed by K-B disc agar diffusion test. Results hBD_ 2 could be effectively expressed in dMSCs, and the concentration of recombinant hBD_ 2 in supernate was about 743.6 ng/ml . Recombinant hBD_ 2 in supernate showed antiseptic activity. Conclusion Recombinant adenovirus expression vector of hBD_ 2 could be effectively expressed in dMSCs, and the recombinant hBD_ 2 in supernate showed obvious antiseptic effects toward some standard bacteria lines.
