Abstract:
Objective: To construct the recombinant adenovirus vector containing human ggpps gene and study its effect on activation of HSCs. Methods: ggpps gene was obtained by PCR amplification and subcloned into adenovirus shuttle plasmid of pAdTrack-CMV to form the shuttle vector of pAdTrack-CMV-GGPPS. After sequencing,it was linearized with PmeI and co-transfected into E. coli BJ5183 cells with adenovirus genomic plasmid of pAdEasy-1 to achieve homologous recombination. The DNA of identified recombinant plasmid was digested with PacI and then transfected into QBI-293A cells to package adenovirus carrying GGPPS. Generation of recombinant adenovirus was monitored by the expression of green fluorescent protein. The titer of viral stock was determined by TCID50 assay. The expression of GGPPS in human hepatocyte after Ad-GGPPS infection was detected by Western Blotting and Real-time PCR. Activation of HSCs and synthesis of ECM were checked by Real-time PCR after Ad-GGPPS infection in LX - 2. Results: The Ad-GGPPS was successfully constructed and the infective titer is 2. 5 × 109 PFU/mL. The expression of GGPPS in human hepatocyte infected by Ad-GGPPS was efficient. Over-expressed GGPPS in LX - 2 cell can promote the expression of α-SMA,a reliable marker of stellate cell activation,and Fibronectin,the composition of ECM is significantly increased too. Conclusion: GGPPS promotes the activation of HSCs.
