Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a cytokine that can reach detectable systemic levels and is a major inducer of the acute phase response. As such, clinical assays to identify this cytokine in mammalian sera are of diagnostic value. A 558 base-pair (bp) fragment of killer whale IL-6 was cloned and expressed as a 21 kDa protein in Escherichia coli. Biological activity of the recombinant killer whale IL-6 (rkwIL-6) was demonstrated using the IL-6-dependent B9 mouse hybridoma cell line; acute phase sera from a killer whale and supernatants from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated killer whale peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) also supported the proliferation of the B9 hybridoma. Rat anti-mouse IL-6 receptor antibody effectively blocked biological activity of all three sources of IL-6. Polyclonal antisera, specific for the recombinant protein, were obtained by successive immunization of a rabbit with rkwIL-6. The polyclonal antibody was capable of neutralizing the biological activity of both recombinant and native kwIL-6. A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed using the polyclonal rabbit anti-rkwIL-6 and the recombinant protein; sensitivity of the assay was in the range of 1 ng/ml. The ELISA was subsequently used to identify the presence of native IL-6 in acute phase sera of two species of delphinidae, a killer whale and a bottlenose dolphin. The application of quantitative cytokine assays as diagnostic tools for monitoring cetacean health are becoming feasible as many animals are now being trained for fluke presentation, making blood collection a routine procedure.  相似文献

In order to obtain high purity of interleukin 4 (IL-4) protein,the specific primers were designed and synthesized according to the mink IL-4 gene sequence in GenBank. The IL-4 gene was amplified by RT-PCR using total RNA of the lymphocyte isolated from the peripheral blood that induced by phytohemagglutinin (PHA). The length of IL-4 gene sequence was 399 bp which encoded 132 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the amino acid sequences homology between mink and ferret was 99.2%,90.0% with Ailuropoda melanoleuca and Canis familiaris. Prokaryotic expression vector pProEX-HTb-IL-4 was constructed and induced by IPTG. The recombinant protein of 15 ku was isolated by SDS-PAGE and detected by Western blotting. Highly purified recombinant protein of mink IL-4 was obtained by His-Trap HP affinity columns method. This research laid the foundation for the further studies on the biological function of mink IL-4 gene.  相似文献

Expression of porcine interleukin-2 in Escherichia coli   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
A mature form of porcine interleukin-2 (IL-2) protein without signal peptides was expressed as glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins in Escherichia coli using pGEX vector. Since most of GST-IL-2 fusion protein was detected in an insoluble fraction on SDS-PAGE analysis, the insoluble fusion protein was solubilized by refolding procedure using urea. The recombinant IL-2 (rIL-2) was purified by a batch method using Glutathione Sepharose 4B and factor Xa digestion and used for preparation of antisera in mice. The antisera reacted with rIL-2 expressed in baculovirus system on immunoblot analysis. In addition, the purified rIL-2 showed a high biological activity on CTLL-2 proliferative response.  相似文献

Interleukin-2 is a vital cytokine secreted by activated T lymphocytes, and plays important role in the regulation of cellular and humoral immunity of animals. In our experiment, IL2 cDNA of the Tibet Pig was first cloned by RT-PCR from ConA-stimulated lymphocytes in the blood and subcloned into pMD-18 T vector, which then was identified with endonuclease restriction. The sequencing result showed that Tibet pig IL-2 (TPIL-2) cDNA was 503 bp long (ORF was 465 bp) (Genbank accession number: AY 294018). The recombinant prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression plasmids of the cDNA were then constructed to analyse the ability to stimulate the proliferation of porcine lymphocytes in vitro. The recombinant porcine IL-2 expressed in the prokaryotic cells was found to be of 43 kDa molecular mass, which was consistent with a 17.4 kDa protein deduced from the IL-2 cDNA sequence (glutathione S-transferase molecular mass is 26 kDa); the recombinant protein in eukaryotic cells was confirmed by use of specific rabbit anti-porcine IL-2 serum in an ELISA. The bioactivity of TPIL-2 was detected through MTT colorimetry by stimulating the proliferation of pig ConA-stimulated blasts in vitro. The results indicate that the TPIL-2 significantly promoted the proliferation of ConA-stimulated blasts of pig. This confirms that IL-2 cDNA of the Tibet pig was successfully cloned and expressed in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, which lays the foundation for the the preparation of specific recombinant IL-2 protein and development of novel immune adjuvants to raise the immunity of pigs against various infectious pathogens and increase the immunoprotective efficacy of vaccines.  相似文献

We recently cloned the genes encoding chicken IL-15 and IL-15 receptor (R) alpha proteins. In this study, 12 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against recombinant chicken IL-15Ralpha were produced and characterized. By enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), all mAbs showed binding specificity for IL-15Ralpha, but not IL-2 or interferon-gamma, and identified a 25.0kDa protein by immunoblot analysis. Flow cytometric analysis revealed negligible expression of IL-15Ralpha on non-activated lymphocytes from the spleen, thymus or bursa, low but detectable expression on macrophages and high expression on concanavalin A-activated spleen lymphoblasts. Established chicken T cell (RP13) and macrophage (HD11) cell lines expressed substantially higher levels of IL-15Ralpha compared with a B cell line (RP9). Two mAbs inhibited IL-15 dependent proliferation of T cells suggesting that the tertiary structure of the protein domain of native IL-15Ralpha that binds to IL-15 is preserved in the recombinant receptor molecule. These mAbs will be useful reagents for further in vitro and in vivo studies of the biological functions of chicken IL-15 and its receptor.  相似文献

The cytokine, interleukin (IL)-5 stimulates eosinophil differentiation, activation and survival and can prime these cells, increasing the response to other mediators. In view of its many effects on eosinophils, IL-5 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of allergic disease in man. Here we report the cloning of equine IL-5 and expression of the recombinant protein by transfection of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The cloned cDNA sequence consisted of 405 nucleotides and encoded a protein of 135 amino acids. There is >85% identity with feline, bovine, ovine, canine, and human IL-5 sequences at the nucleotide and protein level. Supernatants containing equine IL-5 were also examined for biological activity. CHO supernatant containing equine recombinant (eqr) IL-5, like the human ortholog (hrIL-5), induced concentration dependent equine eosinophil adherence to autologous serum-coated plastic (9.7+/-1.5% with a 1:100 dilution of eqrIL-5 and 9.1+/-1.6% adherence with 1 nM hrIL-5; n = 4). The eqr protein also caused concentration dependent superoxide production (11.9+/-2.4 nmol (reduced cytochrome (cyt) C)/10(6) cells at a 1:50 dilution, n = 4). In contrast, hrIL-5 only caused significant superoxide production when diluted in conditioned CHO medium, an effect that was inhibited by the anti-human mAb, TRFK5 (4.4+/-0.3 versus 0.3+/-0.4 nmol/10(6) cells for 0.5 nM hrIL-5 in the presence of the isotype matched IgG1 control (10 microM) and TRFK5 (10 microM), respectively). TRFK5 also significantly inhibited hrIL-5 induced adherence at concentrations of 0.3 microg/ml and above but had no significant inhibitory effect on either superoxide or adherence caused by eqrIL-5. These results demonstrate that equine IL-5 expressed by CHO cells stimulates equine eosinophils, suggesting that this cytokine could play a role in eosinophil recruitment and activation in equine allergic disease. The anti-human and murine moAb TRFK5 does not appear to recognise the equine protein.  相似文献

The chicken IL-15 gene was recently cloned and shown to encode a polypeptide with T cell growth factor activity similar to IL-2. To further characterize the chemical and biological properties of chicken IL-15, we generated a panel of monoclonal antibodies against bacterially expressed protein and characterized their binding specificities. All antibodies were reactive by ELISA with recombinant IL-15, but not IL-2, and identified a 15kDa recombinant chicken IL-15 by Western blot analysis. Two antibodies inhibited IL-15-induced proliferation of splenic lymphoblast cells. These monoclonal antibodies will be useful for further structural and immunological studies of chicken IL-15.  相似文献
