The purpose of this experiment is to compare the protective effect of CMU-1 solution with that of UW during cold preservation and normothermic reperfusion. METHODS: Wistar rats were divided into two groups according to different preservation solution: CMU-1 group and UW group. After 6, 12 and 24 h cold storage of rat liver in different preservation solutions, the isolated perfused rat liver model was applied to reperfuse the liver for 120 min normothermically (37 癈) with Krebs-Henseleit solution, meanwhile the pH value of the preservation solution was measured. The perfusate was sampled for the evaluation of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). At the end of the reperfusion, all of the bile product was collected, energy metabolic substrate and histological examination were performed. RESULTS: After preserving for 6 h, pH value of both groups did not change; after 12 h, both decreased but with no significant difference. After 24 h, pH value in UW solution group significantly decreased. The total adenine nucleotides level and AEC in liver tissue decreased with preservation time, but they were higher in CMU-1 group. And the amount of bile product after perfusion for 120 min in CMU-1 group was much more than that in UW group. However, there were no significant differences in ALT and LDH levels between two groups. Histology showed no difference. CONCLUSION: The preservation effect of CMU-1 solution is similar with that of UW solution. However, CMU-1 solution shows some advantages over UW solution in energy metabolism, preventing intracellular acidosis and bile product.展开更多

The mouse Ipr1 gene and human SR-A promoter were successfully cloned and then used to construct this macrophage-specific eukaryotic expression vector. Bovine fetal fibroblasts in stable primary culture (4th passage) were transfected with pSRA-EGFP-Ipr1 by electroporation. Fluorescence from GFP was observed after 24h. Transgenic cells were selected using G418 and the resultant monoclones were picked and expanded. The transgenic cells, at the 9 th passage, were evaluated by PCR and flow cytometry. The inserted Ipr1 was confirmed by PCR, indicating stable integration of the transgene into the genome and cells had normal karyotypes and very good appearance, which indicate no deleterious result of the transgenesis. In conclusion, the cells obtained could be used as donor cells for nuclear transfer for further research of transgenic cattle.展开更多
