目的:构建重组表达HBx的腺病毒,并通过感染细胞建立HBx高表达的细胞模型。方法:首先将HBx基因插入腺病毒穿梭质粒pAdTrack中,限制性酶切鉴定正确后将其用PmeⅠ酶切线性化,转到BJ5183感受态细菌进行同源重组,重组后的腺病毒载体pAd-HBx经PacⅠ酶切线性化后,转染到QBI-293A细胞中,根据EGFP的表达判断重组腺病毒的包装情况。RT-PCR鉴定重组腺病毒的HBx基因表达。根据GFP的表达检测病毒滴度和感染效率。将病毒感染人肝癌HepG2细胞,48h后收集裂解细胞,Westernblot检测HBx蛋白的表达。结果:重组腺病毒载体pAd-HBx经酶切鉴定确认构建成功。将pAd-HBx转染到QBI-293A细胞,荧光检测提示病毒获得成功包装,RT-PCR检测到细胞中HBx基因的表达。重组病毒感染人肝癌HepG2细胞,Westernblot检测到HBx蛋白表达。结论:成功构建了携带HBx基因的重组腺病毒,感染肝癌HepG2细胞后检测到了HBx蛋白的表达,提示建立了HBx高表达的细胞模型,为后续的HBx的功能研究奠定了基础。
Aim:To construct recombinant HBx-expressed adenovirus, and establish a cell culture model with high- level HBx expression by infection. Methods:HBx gene was cloned into the shuttle vector pAdTrack. After confirmed by re- striction digestion, the resultant plasmid was linearized by digestion with Pme I and was subsequently transformed into competent E. coli cells BJ5183 for homologous recombination. The recombination vector pAd-HBx was linearized with Pac I and transfected into QBI-293A cells. The packing of adenovirus was determined by the expression of EGFP. The expres- sion of HBx gene in recombinant adenovirus was identified by RT-PCR. Viral titer and infection efficiency of adenovirus were detected according to the expression of GFP. HepG2 ceils were infected by recombinant adenovirus. Forty-eight hours later, cells were collected and lysed to detect the expression of HBx protein by Western blot. Results:Restriction digestion showed that the recombinant adenovirus vector pAd-HBx was successfully constructed. After pAd-HBx transfected into QBI- 293A cells, fluorescence detection indicated that the adenovirus was successfully packed. The expression of HBx gene was detected by RT-PCR. After infection to the hepatoma HepG2 cells, the expression of HBx protein was detected by Western blot. Conclusion: The recombinant adenovirus expressing HBx gene has been successfully constructed. After infecting HepG2 cell,the HBx protein expression is detected, suggesting cell culture model with high-level expression of HBx is es- tablished.
