摘要
The paper was to study construction and expression of rGhrelin （pcDNA3 -Ghrelin） and its effect on growth performance and gastric acid secretion of rats. Ghrelin amplified from gastric mucosa of weaned piglets was cloned into the expression vector pcDNA3 to get recombinant plasmid pcDNA3 - Ghrelin. Twelve weaning rats were randomly divided into two groups, six rats each group. The rats in each treatment group were individually injected with 100pg of naked plasmid pcDNA3 -Ghrelin, and the rats in control group were injected with empty plasmid. The weights and feed consumption of rats were measured after injection for 7, 14 and 29 d, respectively. The rats were sacrificed at the end of the experiment, and their stomach was separated and weighed, the pH value of gastric juice was measured as well. The results showed that the average daily gain of rats at 7 and 29 d were significantly higher than that in control group, respectively （P〈0.05）, and feed consumption did not have significant chan- ges; the feed meat ratio of rats in the treatment groups was significantly lower than that in control group （ P 〈0.05） ; the gastric relative weight and gastric weight did not change significantly, while the pH value of gastric juice of rats in treatment groups was significantly lower than that in control group （P 〈 0.05）. This indicated that after transfected expression of muscle tissue, ghrelin played an important regulatory role in growth and gastric acid secretion of rats.
