Establishment of a Tumor-bearing Mouse Model Stably Expressing EGFP Labeled Human MUC1 VNTRs

Two eukaryotic vectors expressing 9 tandem repeats of human MUCI（VNTR）, VR1012-VNTR, and pEGFP-VNTR, were constructed by cloning VNTR gene into VR1012 and pEGFP, respectively. VNTR stably expressing murine Lewis lung carcinoma（LLC） cell line（VNTR^＋ LLC） was established by Lipofectamine-mediated transfection of pEGFP-VNTR into LLC cells. The EGFP expression was observed under a fluorescent microscope and VNTR expression in VNTR^＋ LLC cells was confirmed by means of Western blotting. A syngenic graft tumor model was generated by subcutaneous injection of VNTR^＋ LLC cells into C57/BL6 mice and tumor size increased rapidly with time and in a cell qumber dependent manner. VNTR mRNA expression in the tumor formed was confirmed by RT-PCR. After the third immunization mice were challenged subcutaneously with 5×10^5 VNTR^＋ LLC cells, a significant reduction of subcutaneous tumor growth was observed in the groups immunized with VNTR plasmid DNA compared with that in the groups immunized with the vector DNA alone. Thus, the suppression of subcutaneous tumor was antigen-specific. This model is useful for the development of tumor vaccines targeting MUCI VNTRs.     

Construction and Expression of Human Survivin and Preparation of Its Polyclonal Antibody

Survivin, a novel member of inhibitor of apoptosis（IAP） protein family, is aberrantly expressed in cancer but undetectable in normal, differentiated adult tissues. The cancer-specific expression of survivin, coupled with its importance in inhibiting cell death and in regulating cell division makes it a useful diagnostic marker of cancer and a potential target for cancer treatment. Survivin cDNA amplified from the total RNA of 293 cells through RT-PCR was cloned into prokaryotic expression vector pRSET-B. The recombinant plasmid pRSET-B-Surv was expressed in E.coli BL21, and the relative molecule mass（Mr） of expressed fusion protein was approximately 21000. The recombinant protein was purified through Ni^2＋ affinity chromatography column and characterized by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The purified recombinant protein was then injected into rabbits, and antisurvivin polyclonal antibody with a high titer was obtained.

采用溶液聚合法合成了一系列N-异丙基丙烯酰胺(NIPAM)与甲基丙烯酸甲酯、丙烯酸乙酯、丙烯酸丁酯或甲基丙烯酸丁酯的无规共聚物,用浊度观测法和光散射法测定了不同共聚物水溶液的温敏相转变行为.结果表明:所得共聚物的低临界溶解温度(LCST)均低于均聚物PNIPAM的,酯类单体的结构和含量对共聚物的LCST有显著影响,其中酯基上的烷基对共聚物LCST的影响能力大于丙烯酸酯α位上的烷基,前者对增大共聚物的疏水性有更大贡献.通过NIPAM与特定丙烯酸酯单体进行无规共聚可以合成转变温度低于PNIPAM均聚物且具有预设LCST数值的水溶性温敏聚合物.
