将人工合成的5个相连的XRE(Xeobiotic response element)和minimal CMV(Human cytomegalovirus)启动子,插入载体pEGFP-1,构建得到载体pXRE5-EGFP,以pXRE5-EGFP转染人胃癌细胞SGC-7901,经过筛选得到一株受2,3,7,8-四氯代二苯并二噁英(2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo—p-dioxin,TCDD)诱导表达绿色荧光蛋白的细胞系XRE5-SGC-7901,将XRE5-SGC-7901细胞株暴露于不同浓度TCDD(0、250、500pg·mL^-1)中,发现TCDD暴露组XRE5-SGC-7901细胞中绿色荧光蛋白的表达量显著升高,且与TCDD暴露浓度呈正相关,新构建的细胞株具有二噁英类化合物诱导表达绿色荧光蛋白的功能。
Five joined XRE fragments and minimal CMV (Human cytomegalovirus) promoter were inserted into pEGFP-1 to generate a new vector pXRE5-EGFP. When human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was stably transfected with this construct, the recombinant cell line XRE5-SGC-7901 expressed enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) following stimulation with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). After exposed to different concentrations of TCDD (0, 250, 500pg·mL^-1), the cell line expressed EGFP in dose-dependent manners. These results suggested that XRE5-SGC-7901 was a useful bioassay system for dioxin-like chemicals.
