Objective To investigate the difference of gene expression in the visceral adipose tissue of the lean type 2 diabetic rats. Methods The difference bands were generated by the representational difference analysis ( cDNA RDA) ; the final difference products was ligated into the pUC-18 vector, subcloned and sequenced, and the obtained expressed sequence tags ( ESTs) were given bioinformatics analysis, and then the expression level of known gene was verified by semi-quantitative RT-PCR preliminarily. Results Six novel ESTs and 1 known gene [ rat lipoprotein lipase ( LPL) gene) were obtained in visceral adipose tissue of rat. One of the ESTs was partially similar to mouse musculus ERA-like GTPase (Era) gene. LPL gene was up-regulated in the visceral adipose tissue of the lean type 2 diabetic rats and those fed with fat-enriched food. Conclusion Six novel ESTs and 1 known gene in high expression are obtained from visceral adipose tissue of rat. LPL gene among them is up-regulated and may be related to the high fat and high calorie diet, hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance and molecular pathogenesis of the lean type 2 diabetic rat.

Betacellulin (BTC) is one of "islets regeneration factors" which received more and more attention these years. BTCe is the C-terminal 50-residue region of mature BTC protein and can bind with erbB-1?erbB-4 receptor. It has the same mitogenic activity on cells as the whole section. BTC and BTCe can improve the level of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) during islets culture in vitro though they had no effect on the acute insulin secretion. BTCe also effectively ameliorated the hyperglycemia of STZ-induced diabetic rats by a single plasmid injection into muscle of rats. It is supposed that BTCe promote the proliferation of PDX-1 positive cells or repair some signal transduction pathway. Perhaps the latter is more important.

OBJECTIVESTo identify differences in gene expression in renal and visceral adipose tissue in type 2 diabetic rats using cDNA representational difference analysis (RDA) and to explore the molecular pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and its chronic vascular complications.
METHODSA rat model of type 2 diabetes was generated by administration of a high fat and calorie diet combined with a low dose of streptozocin (STZ) injected into the tail vein. The difference bands were generated by cDNA representational difference analysis (cDNA RDA). The final difference products were ligated into the pUC-18 vector and sequenced. A bioformatics analysis was performed on the obtained expressed sequence tags (ESTs), and then the expression levels of known and novel genes were verified by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR). At the same time, full-length cDNA of a novel gene was cloned in silico.
RESULTSThe type 2 diabetic rats in this experiment experienced hyperglycemia, lipidemia, lower insulin sensitivity and normal body weight. We obtained 9 novel ESTs and 2 novel genes from renal tissue of rats and 6 novel ESTs and 1 known gene, the rat lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene from their visceral adipose tissue. The 2 novel genes (RS91 and RS2) from the renal tissue were both very similar to serine (or cysteine) proteinase inhibitor, clade F and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 and subunit 5 (EIF-3 epsilon). The expression of both novel genes and the LPL gene were upregulated in renal and visceral adipose tissue of type 2 diabetic and fat-enriched rats. Full-length cDNA of the novel gene RS91 was cloned in silico.
CONCLUSIONS(1) The rat model of type 2 diabetes generated in this study was ideal because the disease in the animals closely mimicked type 2 diabetic patients. (2) cDNA RDA is a flexible, inexpensive, more accurate, sensitive and highly effective technique for identifying differences in gene expression. (3) Six novel ESTs and 1 known gene were obtained from rat visceral adipose tissue. The LPL gene was upregulated in adipose tissue of type 2 diabetic and fat-enriched rats, a result possibly related to the diabetic animals' high fat and calorie diet, lipidemia, insulin resistance (RI) and molecular pathogenesis. (4) Nine novel ESTs and 2 novel genes were obtained from the renal tissue of rat. We believe the 2 novel genes to be the serine proteinase inhibitors clade F and EIF-3 epsilon in rats. The upregulation of the 2 novel genes in renal tissue of type 2 diabetic rats and may have been related to their renal impairment.

OBJECTIVESTo obtain prokaryotic expressed IA-2 recombinant protein and to identify its immunological activity.
METHODSThe complimentary DNA (cDNA) coding for the intracytoplasmic part of IA-2 (IA-2ic) was amplified from human fetal brain RNA, and was subcloned into the PinPoint Xa-1 T vector to construct recombinant expression plasmid, and was then expressed in E. coli JM109 cells as a fusion protein with a biotinylated peptide sequence at the aminoterminus. The biotinylated fusion protein was then purified by affinity chromatography and was subsequently dialyzed. Finally, its immunogenicity was evaluated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
RESULTSThe purified IA-2ic fusion protein resolved on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) as a single Coomassie brilliant blue stained band with a molecular weight of 59 kDa and its immunogenicity was confirmed by ELISA.
CONCLUSIONSE. coli expressed IA-2ic fusion protein has immunological activity. It can be used for detection of IA-2 autoantibodies (IA-2A) and for further studies on type 1 diabetes in future.
