Utilize the method for lentivirus-mediated RNAi

Technical field

The present invention relates to information biology and Molecular Virology technical field, be specifically related to a kind of antiviral method of RNAi research of the lentivirus-mediated based on doxycycline control.

Background technology

A lot of laboratories utilize the siRNA interference to carry out antiviral study in the world in recent years, and a lot of results are conflicting or interference effect is not obvious.Crucial problem is that the working model that they use mostly only limits to use the clone of transfection.Because transfection efficiency is extremely limited, be difficult to the siRNA antiviral effect entered in born of the same parents is really estimated.Afterwards, RNAi usually utilized virus vector to express siRNA, wherein commonly retroviral vector and adenovirus carrier.But retrovirus only infects division cells, the DNA fragmentation that holds foreign gene is no more than 8kb; During the adenovirus carrier cells infected, viral DNA is free in nucleus, can not be incorporated in host chromosome, can not realize stable long-term expression in vivo, and application easily causes immune response repeatedly, more and more be subject to people's attention so derive from the lentiviral vectors (Lentiviral vector) of human immunodeficiency virus-1(HIV-1).

Lentiviral vectors both can infect somatoblast, also can infect Unseparated Cell such as neurocyte, liver cell, hemopoietic stem cell and muscle cell etc., the exogenous genetic fragment shifted is large, host range is very wide, and reduced the chance of restructuring, most important characteristics are that it can be incorporated in host's genome, thus expression alien gene that can high-efficient and lasting, thereby become the carrier that the eukaryotic gene widely paid close attention to shifts.Modified lentiviral vectors later can be realized induction regulating controlling in eukaryotic cell, such as on lentiviral vectors, adding a multiple control switch, just can realize the controlled expression to foreign gene by tsiklomitsin or tetracycline analogue.

The structure of lentiviral vectors is very simple, and principle is exactly that the cis-acting elements in the HIV-1 genome (as packaging signal, long terminal repeat) is separated with the sequence of coding trans-acting albumen.Build at present slow virus two plasmid expression systems, three-plasmid system and four plasmid expression systems are arranged.The most frequently used is three-plasmid system (packaging plasmid, envelope protein plasmid and transferring plasmid): packaging plasmid is used for expressing HIV-1 and copies required whole trans-activators, but does not produce viral envelope protein and accessory protein vpu; The plasmid-encoded vesicular stomatitis virus G of envelope protein albumen (VSV-G); In transferring plasmid, contain the H1 promotor, can be in host cell the continuous expression foreign gene, express simultaneously the Factor1 by EF1(Elongation) green fluorescent protein (GFP) of promoters driven, transfection efficiency and infect the detection of the efficiency of infection of purpose cell while packing for virus.The sharpest edges of three-plasmid system are that the overlapping chance of sequence is reduced greatly, thereby have reduced the possibility that produces RCV in the carrier regrouping process.

8. interpretation of result:

(1) siRNA for the different conserved regions of HBV of lentivirus mediated has inhibition in various degree to HBV, referring to Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and table 2.Presentation of results is as follows:

Each sample is got the mean value of three experiments, HBeAg and HBsAg value in untreated fish group HepG2.2.15 cell conditioned medium are made as to 100, and visible LV-HBV-siRNA2 (1775-1795i) and LV-HBV-siRNA3 (1826-1845i) have significant restraining effect on the level of HBsAg and HBeAg.Wherein, during 72h, LV-HBV-siRNA3 (1826-1845i) reaches maximum to the inhibition of HBsAg after transduction, and inhibiting rate is 98.5%; Corresponding LV-HBV-siRNA2 (1775-1795i) reaches 90.9% to the inhibition of HBsAg.It is upper that the trend of this inhibition is embodied in HBeAg equally: during 96h, LV-HBV-siRNA3 (1826-1845i) reaches maximum to the inhibition of HBeAg after transduction, and inhibiting rate is 73.5%; LV-HBV-siRNA2 (1775-1795i) reaches 44.9%(such as Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 to the inhibiting rate of HBeAg).

After transduction during 96h, LV-HBV-siRNA3 has reduced more than 10 times the DNA copy number of HBV in supernatant, and LV-HBV-siRNA2 can reduce approximately 9 times by the DNA copy number of HBV in supernatant, the LV-HBV-siRNA1 of suppression efficiency minimum also can reduce by 4 times of left and right (table 2) by the DNA copy number of HBV.

The variation of HBV mRNA level is that amount according to HBV Auele Specific Primer level measures out divided by reference gene β-actin in born of the same parents.Each sample is to get average.The ratio of untreated fish group is made as to 100, and ratio is greater than 100 and means that HBV mRNA level is higher than untreated fish group, and namely the mRNA level rises; On the contrary, if ratio is less than 100, mean that HBV mRNA level reduces, be worth less expression interference effect better.Result shows: with untreated fish group, compare, LV-HBV-siRNA3(1826-1845i) the mRNA level of HBV can be reduced to 98.1%; And LV-HBV-siRNA2(1775-1795i) make HBV mRNA level reduce by 82.8% (Fig. 3); This ELISA and real time PCR result same and front are consistent, and LV-HBV-siRNA3(1826-1845i is described) and LV-HBV-siRNA2(1775-1795i) transcription product of HBV is had to very strong restraining effect equally.

(2) slow virus carrier system that utilizes DOX to control not only can be controlled copying and expressing of HBV strongly, and this restraining effect is (Fig. 4 and the Fig. 5) that is subject to the strict control of DOX.

Fig. 4 does not have in the situation of DOX, even LV-HBV-siRNA3 and LV-tTR-KRAB infect simultaneously, the core albumen of the HBV normal expression that remains unchanged, but in case add DOX(5 μ g mL-1), the RNAi of lentivirus mediated demonstrates very strong interference effect immediately, and the expression amount of the core albumen of HBV descends immediately.And, iff being that LV-HBV-siRNA3 infects the HepG2.2.15 cell, no matter whether the existence of DOX is arranged, all show strong inhibition.And the expression level of internal reference GAPDH without any variation.

Fig. 5 does not have in the situation of DOX, LV-HBV-siRNA3 and LV-tTR-KRAB infect simultaneously, copying of HBV still normally carried out, but in case add DOX(5 μ g mL-1), the RNAi of lentivirus mediated demonstrates very strong interference effect immediately, copying of HBV is suppressed, the content of RC-DNA, DL-DNA and ssDNA all significantly reduces, and iff being LV-HBV-siRNA3 infection HepG2.2.15 cell, no matter whether the existence of DOX is arranged, all shown strong inhibition, this result with Western blotting is consistent.HBV completes its reproduction process in nucleocapsid in born of the same parents, the replicative intermediate of HBV comprises that in a single day the content of RC-DNA, DL-DNA and ssDNA be lowered, and its process copied just can't complete.

The present embodiment provides the packing schematic diagram of the lentiviral vectors that DOX as shown in Figure 6 induces, and its process is: the lentiviral vectors LV-siRNA of construction expression siRNA and express the lentiviral vectors LV-tTR-KRAB of tsiklomitsin arrestin in the 293T cell at first, its process is to utilize calcium phosphate transfection test kit (purchased from green skies company) to join respectively in the cell ware (purchased from U.S. Corning company) of the 60mm that has inoculated the 293T cell the day before yesterday according to the ratio of pLVTH-siRNA:pCMV-dr8.91:pMD2.G=15 μ g:10 μ g:5 μ g and pLV-tTR-KRAB:pCMV-dr8.91:pMD2.G=15 μ g:10 μ g:5 μ g, then collect respectively the cell conditioned medium of 48h after transfection, the centrifugal 5-10min of 2500rpm, by supernatant with 0.45 μ m membrane filtration, then use ultracentrifuge (Beckman company) at 24500rpm, 4 ℃ of ultracentrifugation 2hours, careful supernatant discarded, ice bath at least 2 hours, finally use the resuspended virus of Opti-MEM, secondly, these two virus vector are transduceed in target cell with same virus titer, in a single day lentiviral vectors enters target cell, its genome can be incorporated on host's genome, yet, after the lentiviral vectors of expression tsiklomitsin arrestin enters target cell, express tTR-KRAB albumen, this albumen is upper by the tetO that the DNA binding domains is attached to the lentiviral vectors of expressing siRNA, thereby closes the expression of genes involved, now, if add tetracycline analogue doxycycline (DOX), DOX can be attached on tTR-KRAB albumen at once, change its structural domain, thereby make it can not be in conjunction with tetO, and then the expression of opening the relevant interference gene, siRNA enters in tenuigenin after in nucleus, transcribing, then by the Dicer enzyme in tenuigenin, cut into the siRNA of 19-21nt, then the albumen polymerization shape RNA silencing complex (RISC) in siRNA and born of the same parents, the said target mrna of homology with it of finally degrading, reach its restraining effect.
