Objective To establish immortalized embryonic fibroblast lines in heat shock transcription factor 1 ( HSF1 ) HSF1^ -/- and HSF1^+/+ mice and to provide experimental models to study the function of HSF 1. Methods A mammalian expression vector ( pSV3 neo ) containing the SV40 large T antigen was used to transfect the HSF1^-/- and HSF1^+/+ mouse embryonic fibroblast using LipofectamineTM 2000. Colonies were screened by G418 and expanded to immortalized cell lines. PCR was used to detect the integration of the large T antigen with genome in the mouse embryonic fibroblast. Expression of SV40 large T antigen gene in expanded cells was identified by RT-PCR. HSP70 expression was examined by Western blot in the embryonic fibroblast lines. Results The stable growth and serial propagation were observed in the HSF1^-/- and HSF1^+/+ cell lines for six months. The mRNA of SV40 T antigen gene expressed in the two cell lines. HSP70 expression could not be induced in the heat-treated HSF1^-/- mouse embryo fibroblasts. Conclusion The immortalized cells of HSF1^+/+ and HSF1^-/- mouse embryo fibroblasts are successfully established.
