Objective To construct the bFGF/Math1 f usion gene expression vector and to investigate its expression in the cochlea of rat. Methods Using the recombinant DNA technique to construct the bFGF/Math1 gene expression vector and the restriction enzyme analysis to ide ntify the correct construction. The mRNA expression was detected by the RT-PCR m ethod after being transfected into the cochlea of rat using lipofectin reagent. Results The recombinant was correct and the bFGF/Math1 wa s expressed in the cochlea of rat.Conclusion The PRK5-bFGF-Math1 eukaryotic expression plas mid was successfully constructed and the bFGF/Math1 was expressed in the mammali an cochlea.
