Abstract:
Objective To construct the lentiviral overexpression vectors of mouse neuromedin B(NMB) and neuromedin B receptor(NMBR) genes and express them in RAW264.7 cells, so as to lay a foundation for further study on the effects of mouse NMB and NMBR gene overexpression on the proliferation and apoptosis of RAW264.7 cells. Methods The coding sequences(CDSs) of mouse NMB and NMBR genes were amplified by RT-PCR and inserted into vector pCD513B-1 to construct recombinant plasmids pCD513B-1-NMB and pCD513B-1-NMBR. Mouse NMB and NMBR gene overexpression lentiviruses were obtained through packaging by HEK-293T cells, and the virus titers were detected by double dilution method. After infection with lentivirus for 48 h, RAW264.7 cells were detected for the expression of NMB and NMBR mRNA by qPCR using the uninfected cells as control. Results The recombinant plasmids were constructed correctly as identified by double enzyme digestion. The virus titers of mouse NMB and NMBR gene overexpression lentiviruses were 6 × 106and 8 ×106TU/mL, respectively. The mRNA expression levels of mouse NMB and NMBR genes in RAW264.7 cells transfected with two lentiviruses were significantly higher than those in the control group(t = 24. 158 and 14. 958, respectively, each P <0. 01). Conclusion Mouse NMB and NMBR gene overexpression vectors were successfully constructed, which can significantly increase the expression of NMB and NMBR genes in RAW264.7 cells.
