The complementary DNAs of the Th1 (IL-2, IL-12p35, and IFN-gamma) and Th2 (IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13) cytokine genes of the bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) were cloned, sequenced, and analyzed. IL-2, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12p35, IL-13, and IFN-gamma were found to have 465, 402, 537, 669, 411, and 501 bp length open reading frames with 154, 133, 178, 222, 136, and 166 amino acid encodings, respectively. The homology ranged from 58.8% to 100% between the nucleotide sequences of the camel cytokine genes and the published sequences of other mammalian genes, including the llama, pig, cow, horse, human, and mouse. The cDNA had highest homology with orders Artiodactyla (pigs and cattle) and Perissodactyla (horses), especially to the recently cloned llama sequences.  相似文献

In order to characterize the T helper 1 (Th1) cytokines of llama, we have cloned several llama cytokine genes and compared them to those of other mammalian species. The cDNAs encoding for interleukin (IL)-2, interferon (IFN)gamma, IL-12p35 and IL-12p40 were amplified using specific primers designed from reported sequences of bovine cytokine genes. The cDNAs for llama IL-2, IFN-gamma, IL-12 p35 and IL-12p40 were found to be 465, 501, 669 or 993 bp in length, with open reading frames encoding 154, 166, 222 or 330 amino acids, respectively. Homology analyses of nucleotide and deduced amino sequences of llama IL-2, IFN-gamma, IL-12p35 and IL-12p40 and phylogenetic analysis based on their nucleotide sequences indicated the close relationship in these cytokine genes between llama and eutherian mammalian order Artiodactyla, which includes pig and cattle.  相似文献

The current research concerned in the cloning, sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of inflammatory cytokine (IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6 and TNF-alpha) genes from swamp buffalo and two bubaline breeds, CB (cross between swamp and riverine type buffalo) and the Bulgarian Murrah buffalo. Multiple sequence comparison showed a high homology between the bubaline breeds, which ranged from 99.3% to 100.0% similarity, whereas from 98.6% to 99.0% compared to cattle. The phylogenetic analysis had confirmed and justified the degree of relationship between these bubaline species and their distinctness to each other by the bootstrap value (%) generated. These findings were discussed with particular attention to the diversity of the inflammatory cytokine proteins within closely related species. The result of this study concluded that a small difference in the cytokine structures might be the reason behind or has a contributory factor on the previous reports about the existence of disease resistance. However, in-depth study is necessary to further qualify these findings.  相似文献

This paper describes the cloning and sequence analysis of the cDNAs encoding the T helper (Th) 2 cytokines of llama including interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-10 and IL-13. The cDNAs encoding for IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13 were amplified using specific primers designed from reported sequences of bovine cytokine genes. The cDNAs for llama IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13 were found to be 402, 537 and 411 bp in length, with open reading frames encoding 133, 178 or 136 amino acids, respectively. Homology analyses of nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of llama IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13 and phylogenetic analysis based on their nucleotide sequences indicated the close relationship in these cytokine genes between llama and eutherian mammalian order Artiodactyla (pig, cattle) and Perissodactyla (horse).  相似文献

This study describes the quantification of cytokine expression of vaccinated water buffaloes with FMD inactivated vaccine. Using real-time PCR quantification assay, expression of Th1 (IL-2, IL-12p40, IFNγ); Th2 (IL-4, IL-10) and inflammatory (IL-6, TNFα) cytokines were quantified weekly for the entire three-week duration of the experiment. It was noted that IFNγ, IL-10 and TNFα had peaked on week three post-vaccination while the remaining cytokines peaked on the second week and decreased by the third week. The counteraction between IFNγ and IL-4 was noted as well as the possible suppressive action of IL-10 to that of IL-2 and IL-12, which is a common phenomenon between Th1 and Th2 cytokines. Synergy between TNFa and IL-6 was also observed. These findings suggest that within the immune system of water buffalo there is a dynamic cell-mediated and humoral interaction in response to immunogen. This assessment of the cytokine expressions is vital for the study of water buffalo disease progression and concurring protective immune responses.  相似文献

The natural resistance associated macrophage protein 1 (Nramp1) has been reported to confer resistance or susceptibility to Mycobacterium bovis, Salmonella typhimurium, and Leishmania donovani in the mouse, Mus musculus. A Gly and Asp substitution at position 169 of the mouse Nramp protein is invariably associated with the resistant and susceptible phenotypes, respectively. The present study aimed to detect polymorphisms in the NRAMP1 gene from different cattle and buffalo breeds. Genomic DNAs from five breeds of cattle and four breeds of buffalo were used in the study. Sequencing showed two nucleotide substitutions found in intron 4, three in exon V, and ten in intron 5. An amino acid substitution was observed at nucleotide position 1202 in exon V of the Japanese black, Angus, Philippine and Bangladesh swamp-type buffaloes which coded for Thr, while the Korean cattle, Holstein, African N'dama, Indonesian swamp-type buffalo and the Bangladesh river-type buffalo had Ile. All the breeds of cattle and buffaloes tested in this study coded for Gly at the position in exon VI which corresponds to the same amino acid of the murine Nramp1-resistant phenotype at position 169. The phylogenetic relationship among the different breeds showed a cluster comprised mainly of cattle and another one mainly of buffaloes.  相似文献

In order to get the interleukin-7 (IL-7) gene sequence of Tibetan sheep, and research the characteristics of this sequence and structure and function of encoding protein, IL-7 gene was amplified from Tibetan sheep by RT-PCR. The nucleotide sequence,amino acid sequence, homology and phylogenetic tree were analyzed by the DNAStar software. The secondary and tertiary structures, hydrophilicity, signal peptide and post-translational modification site of the encoding protein were predicted by DNAStar software and online servers. The results showed that the length of IL-7 gene was 531 bp (contained termination codon), and encoded 176 amino acids. Compared with IL-7 gene of Ovis aries, Capra hircus, Pantholops hodgsonii, Bubalus bubalis, Bos indicus, Bison bison bison, Bos taurus and Bos mutus, IL-7 gene of Tibetan sheep showed a great similarity from 97.2% to 99.8%, the amino acid sequence homology varied from 94.9% to 99.4%, and the relationship was the closest between Tibetan sheep and Ovis aries. Result from protein structure prediction indicated that the IL-7 protein was mainly composed of α-helix, it was a hydrophilic and secretory protein. Furthermore, it had six kinds of post translational modification sites, including one N-myristoylation site, one amidation site, one cAMP-and cGMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site, three N-glycosylation sites, four protein kinase C phosphorylation sites and six casein kinase Ⅱ phosphorylation sites. These results might provide references for further study and clinical application of IL-7 gene in Tibetan sheep.  相似文献

The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is an important dairy animal on the Indian subcontinent and in Southeast Asian countries. The diversity and differentiation among 12 populations or breeds of buffalo were studied. Data were generated and analyzed from 527 animals belonging to 10 recognized breeds and 2 additional populations of Indian buffalo by using 22 microsatellite loci. Relationships among buffalo breeds and populations were estimated based on genetic distances. The Bayesian analysis grouped 12 populations into 8 distinctive clusters. Geographically close breeds clustered together, except for the Jaffarabadi and Murrah, which were not in geographic contiguity. The Mantel test revealed nonsignificant correlations between genetic and geographic distances. This supports the hypothesis that buffaloes have been domesticated at different places for specific purposes. The phylogenetic relationship based on microsatellite loci supported the breed classification based on body size. The Toda breed, which is considered to be endangered, had genotypes similar to those of the surrounding buffalo populations.  相似文献

Pro-inflammatory cytokines (particularly IL-12) are important for initiating protective T helper 1 (Th1)-type immune responses and hence vital for combating intracellular infections and tumours. In situ hybridization (ISH) provides a powerful diagnostic tool allowing the identification and localization of cells producing these mediators in fixed tissues. The objective of this work was to produce a bovine IL-12p40 probe that allows detection of IL-12p40 mRNA in fixed tissues from different ruminant species. The RNA probe sequence is 447 bp in length and from a region with high cross-species-sequence homology (>97.3% homology) to the ovine, cervine, caprine and bubaline IL-12p40 genes. ISH was carried out on paraformaldehyde fixed tissues collected from cattle, sheep and goats. The probe was efficient in identifying IL-12p40 expressing cells in fixed tissues from all these species. In conclusion, the IL-12p40 probe was efficient in identifying and localizing cells that express IL-12p40, and provides a good immuno-diagnostic technique to characterize immune responses in fixed tissues.  相似文献

Cytokines produced by T helper (Th) cells are important in orchestrating the immune response during health and disease. Recent reports indicated that cytokine mRNA expression in foals is often quantitatively lower than that of adult horses suggesting that foal T cells are not fully mature. Here, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from foals and adult horses were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and analyzed for intracellular interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-10 production, representing the Th1, Th2 and regulatory TR1 cell phenotypes respectively, by flow cytometry. In agreement with previous reports, all three cytokines were quantitatively reduced in foals compared to adults. However, the balance between Th1 and Th2 cytokines (IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio) showed a clear Th1-biased response in foals by 6 and 12 weeks of life, while similar IFN-γ/IL-10 ratios were found in foals and adult horses. By day 5 after birth, intracellular IFN-γ production by foal CD4+ and CD8+ T cells resembled that in adults. Overall, IL-4 production was low in foals. IL-4+ cells peaked at day 5 of age when IL-4 was mainly produced by IgE+ cells. Relative percentages of IL-4+ Th2 cells were significantly lower in foals at all time points. The data suggested that equine neonates and young foals have an impaired Th2 response, that the immune response of foals is Th1 biased, that IFN-γ production by Th and cytotoxic T cells is qualitatively similar to adult horses, and regulatory IL-10 production by T cells is developmentally mature in foals during the first three months of life.  相似文献

In order to further understand molecular characteristics and immune mechanisms of chicken major histocompatibility complex class Ⅰ(MHCⅠ) β2m gene,the 15 sequence of chicken MHC β2m gene from three local breeds was cloned by RT-PCR. We compared these sequences with seven MHCⅠβ2m genes of human,mouse and other animals in the GenBank database. The results showed that the amino acid homology among chicken MHCⅠβ2m ranged from 98.0% to 100%,the most sequences were identical. Chicken MHCⅠβ2m shared a 60.6% amino acid homology with duck,the highest degree of homology indicated a close genetic relationship,and the grasscarp had the lowest homology,33.3%. It could be further confirmed by phylogenetic analysis. Moreover,alignment of 10 β2m sequences of mature protein,two cysteines were located in sites 24 and 79,and there was the "YXCXVXH" Ig-motif character between the sites 77 and 83 of chicken β2m. The results showed that MHCⅠβ2m of chicken and other species had the same basic unit of immune function,and they had the unique structural features.  相似文献
