摘要: |
目的:筛选能高效干扰大鼠Toll样受体4(Toll-like receptor 4,TLR4)mRNA的最佳小分子干扰RNA(small interfering RNA,siRNA)序列。方法:克隆大鼠TLR4基因全长,将TLR4基因与含增强型绿色荧光蛋白(enhanced green fluorescent protein, EGFP)的质粒pEGFP-C1重组,构建pEGFP-rTLR4,化学合成法合成3对干扰大鼠TLR4的siRNA后,将3对siRNA、阴性对照siRNA和干扰EGFP的siRNA分别与pEGFP-rTLR4经Lipofectamine2000共转染HEK-293细胞株,通过倒置相差显微镜和流式细胞仪观察EGFP的荧光强度。结果:与阴性对照组相比,3对针对TLR4的siRNA及针对EGFP的siRNA均明显抑制EGFP的荧光表达(P<0.05)。其中尤以siRNA2(核苷酸序列为5′-GTC TCA GAT ATC TAG ATC T-3′,位于TLR4基因序列的1 352~1 370位)的抑制效果最强,干扰效率>75%。结论:成功筛选出体外可高效干扰大鼠TLR4 mRNA的siRNA片段。 |

Abstract: |
Objective:To screen for an optimized siRNA sequence targeting rat Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in vitro. Methods: The full length gene of rat TLR4 was cloned and inserted into pEGFP-C1 plasmid to construct pEGFP-rTLR4. Three pairs of siRNAs targeting rTLR4 were chemically synthesized and were co-transfected with pEGFP-rTLR4 into HEK-293 cells via Lipofectamine2000. Cells were also co-transfected with siRNA targeting EGFP and negative control siRNA. The expression of EGFP was observed under inverted fluorescene microscope and flow cytometry. Results: Compared with the negative control group, 3 pairs of siRNAs targeting TLR4 and one pair of siRNA targeting EGFP significantly suppressed the EGFP expression (P<0.05); the inhibitory effect of siRNA2(gene sequence:5′-GTC TCA GAT ATC TAG ATC T-3′,19 bp, 1 352-1 370)was the strongest one, with an interference efficiency over 75%.Conclusion: We have successfully obtained the siRNA sequence targeting TLR4 mRNA, which can efficiently suppress the expression of rat TLR4 mRNA in vitro. |
