摘要:

文题释义:
髓源性生长因子(myeloid-derived growth factor,MYDGF):是一种由骨髓单核细胞和巨噬细胞分泌的细胞因子,可以改善糖尿病小鼠的胰岛素抵抗和葡萄糖/脂质代谢。髓源性生长因子可以改善血管内皮功能障碍,并且在改善心肌梗死方面发挥重要作用。
髓源性生长因子和ApoE双基因敲除模型建立:购买骨髓特异性髓源性生长因子基因敲除小鼠和ApoE基因敲除小鼠,将两种小鼠进行杂交得到ApoE基因敲除小鼠骨髓特异性髓源性生长因子缺失小鼠,利用基因鉴定和蛋白水平验证敲除效果,初步观察敲除小鼠表型。

背景:目前关于髓源性生长因子(myeloid-derived growth factor,MYDGF)与动脉粥样硬化及代谢性疾病的研究较少,因此建立一种载脂蛋白E(apolipoprotein E,ApoE)敲除骨髓MYDGF缺失的小鼠模型对于研究MYDGF与动脉粥样硬化疾病的关系尤为重要。
目的:建立ApoE敲除骨髓MYDGF特异性缺失小鼠模型并进行鉴定。
方法:ApoE敲除小鼠和骨髓特异性MYDGF敲除小鼠,均购于上海南方模式生物科技股份有限公司。选取5只ApoE敲除小鼠与10只骨髓特异性MYDGF敲除小鼠进行交配,得到基因型为MYDGFflox/+ApoEflox/+ F1子代小鼠30只,MYDGFflox/+ApoEflox/+互相进行交配,一共得到基因型为MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox双敲除小鼠30只和ApoEflox/flox小鼠子代小鼠34只。采用PCR法进行MYDGFflox及ApoEflox基因型鉴定,记录MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox双敲除小鼠与ApoEflox/flox小鼠2月龄的体长及体质量,采用Western blotting和免疫荧光检测2组小鼠骨髓组织MYDGF蛋白相对表达量,油红O染色检测2组小鼠胸主动脉斑块面积。实验方案经中国人民解放军中部战区总医院动物实验伦理委员会批准。
结果与结论:①得到基因型为ApoEflox/flox小鼠共34只、MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox小鼠共30只,2组小鼠体长、体质量比较差异均无显著性意义(均P > 0.05);②MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox小鼠骨髓组织MYDGF蛋白相对表达量显著低于ApoEflox/flox小鼠(P < 0.05);③MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox小鼠胸主动脉的斑块面积百分比显著大于ApoEflox/flox小鼠(P < 0.05) ;④结果证实成功敲除了ApoE小鼠的MYDGF基因,说明成功构建ApoE敲除骨髓特异性MYDGF缺失小鼠模型,并经基因型及蛋白组织水平鉴定;MYDGF基因缺乏可以加重ApoE基因敲除小鼠的动脉粥样硬化。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: There are few studies on myeloid-derived growth factor (MYDGF) and atherosclerosis and metabolic diseases. Therefore, a mouse model of bone marrow specific MYDGF deficiency with apolipoprotein E (ApoE) knockout is particularly important for studying the relationship between MYDGF and atherosclerotic diseases.
OBJECTIVE: To establish and identify the mouse model of bone marrow specific MYDGF deficiency with ApoE knockout. 
METHODS: ApoEflox/flox mice and bone marrow specific MYDGFflox/fiox mice were purchased from the Shanghai Model Organisms Centre, Inc (Shanghai, China). Five ApoEflox/flox male mice were selected to mate with 10 MYDGFflox/fiox female mice, and 30 F1 progeny mice with genotype of MYDGFflox/+ApoEflox/+ were obtained and mated with each other. Finally 30 mice with genotypes of MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox and 34 ApoEflox/flox progenies were obtained. The MYDGFflox and ApoEflox genotypes were identified by PCR, and the body length and body mass of MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox mice and ApoEflox/flox mice at 2 months were recorded. The expression of MYDGF protein in the mouse bone marrow tissues was detected by western blot assay, and immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of MYDGF in the mouse bone marrow cells. The plaque area of the thoracic aorta in the mouse was detected by oil red O staining. The study was approved by the Animal Ethic Committee of PLA General Hospital of Central Theater Command.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There were 34 ApoEflox/flox mice and 30 MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox mice, with no significant difference in their body length and body mass (both P > 0.05). The relative expression level of MYDGF protein in the bone marrow of MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox mice was significantly lower than that of ApoEflox/flox mice (P < 0.05). The percentage of plaque area in the thoracic aorta of MYDGFflox/floxApoEflox/flox mice was significantly higher than that of ApoEflox/flox mice (P < 0.05). Therefore, MYDGF gene was successfully knocked out in ApoEflox/flox mice, and the homozygous mouse model of bone marrow knockout MYDGF gene in ApoE knockout mice was successfully constructed and identified by genotype and protein tissue levels. To conclude, MYDGF gene deficiency can aggravate atherosclerosis in ApoE knockout mice.
