Abstract:
Objective To clone and express the HIV-1B gp120 genes isolated at different organizations from a patient died of AIDS dementia complex (ADC) in eukaryotic cells.Methods Using the genomic DNA isolated from peripheral lymphnodes,choroid plexus and occipital white matter from a patient died of ADC as the template,HIV-1B gp120 gene was amplified with PCR.After sequenced,HIVIB gp120 was inserted into pcDNA3.1 ( + ) and recombinant expressing vector gp120/pcDNA3.1 ( + ) was constructed succeffuly confirming with sequencing. Then expressing vector was transfected into eukaryotic cells U87 using liposome transfection and expression of HIV-1B gp120 gene was assayed with indirect immunofluorescence.Results HIV-I B gp120 genes isolated from peripheral lymphnodes,choroid plexus and occipital white matter of the ADC patient were successfully cloned and recombinant expressing vector gp120/pcDNA3.i ( + ) could express envelope glycoprotein HIV-1B gp120 in U87 cells.Conclusion All the HIV-1B gp120 gene isolated at the different organizations of the same ADC patient could express in U87 cells,which may supply a valuable basis for studying the neurotoxicity and neurotoxic mechanism of HIV-1 gp120 protein.
