肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)对机体具有一定的放射线保护作用,并能增强肿瘤的放疗效果。用可被放射线转录激活的Egr-1启动子与人TNF的融合基因,构建成放射线诱导性的人TNF双拷贝逆转录病毒载体pETDC,经包装细胞Psi-2和Crip的两次包装后,其病毒上清的病毒滴度达4×105CFU/ml。用此病毒上清感染小鼠成纤维细胞株NIH3T3和黑色素细胞株B16.F10,经G418抗性筛选后,得到的阳性克隆分泌TNF量分别为2.1ng/ml和1.1ng/ml,并经RT-PCR证实了人TNFmRNA的表达。经20Gy的放射线体外照射后,其TNF表达量分别升至13.8ng/ml和5.7ng/ml,即分别为照射前的5.6倍和4.2倍。此结果为其将来瘤体内注射该TNF基因表达载体并辅助局部放疗的体内实验打下了基础。
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) has a certain radiation protection effect on the body, and can enhance the radiotherapy effect of the tumor. A radiation-inducible human TNF double-copy retroviral vector pETDC was constructed using a fusion gene that can be activated by radiation transcription of the Egr-1 promoter and human TNF, and the packaging cells Psi-2 and Crip were packaged twice. The virus supernatant titer reached 4 x 105 CFU/ml. The virus supernatant was used to infect mouse fibroblast cell line NIH3T3 and melanin cell line B16. F10, screened by G418 resistance, the positive clones obtained secreted TNF amounts were 2.1 ng/ml and 1.1 ng/ml respectively, and the expression of human TNF mRNA was confirmed by RT-PCR. After irradiation with 20 Gy of X-rays, their TNF expression levels increased to 13.8 ng/ml and 5.7 ng/ml, respectively, ie 5.6-fold and 4.2-fold, respectively, before irradiation. This result lays the foundation for future in vivo tumor injections of the TNF gene expression vector and adjuvant in vivo radiotherapy.
