Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo detect the expression of recombinant plasmid PcDNA3.1-sTNFRI in vitro and evaluate the bioactivity of expressed sTNFRI.
METHODSCHO cells were transfected with recombinant plasmid PcDNA3.1-sTNFRI by liposome. sTNFRI in cell culture supernatant was detected by ELISA and sTNFRI blockage of TNF-alpha cytotoxicity in L929 cells evaluated by MTT assay.
RESULTSThe expression of sTNFRI in transfected cell culture supernatant was higher than control groups (P < 0.001). The expressed sTNFRI could significantly neutralize TNF-alpha cytotoxicity in L929 cells.
CONCLUSIONSThese results showed that the recombinant plasmid PcDNA3.1-sTNFRI can be expressed in mammalian cells and the recombinant sTNFRI has biological function.
