Methods： Human apoA-I cDNA with a His-tag in the upward stream of cDNA sequence were obtained with RT-PCR and PCR, and human apoA-IMilano cDNA was prepared by QuikChange Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit. After extracted rAAV vectors with a most economic and convenient method, the particle numbers of rAAV vectors were measured by Dot-blot, and the purity was assayed by SOS-Page. The expression efficiency of the apoA-I or apoA-IMilano in C2C12 infected by rAAV vectors were detected by ELISA method. Results： ApoA-I cDNA was gained by RT-PCR and a His-tag was added in the upward stream of apoA-I cDNA successfully. ApoA-I cDNA was mutanted to apoA-IMilano cDNA successfully by QuikChange Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit. The both titres of the rAAV vectors of apoA-I and apoA-IMilano were about 2×10^14/L, and the result of SOS-Page showed that the purity of the rAAV vectors was satisfied. The expression level of apoA-I was （0.39±0.04） μg/ml and the apoA-IMilano was （0.31±0.03） μ/ml in the DMEM culture medium at the first 24h after transfection. Conclusion： The success of the rAAV vectors construction, purification and the expression of apoA-I and apoA-IMilano in C2C12 cells mediated by these vectors, makes possible to inject rAAVA and rAAVAM vectors into mice muscle, and rises a new hope on finding a new way to prevent and treat atherosclerotic diseases and cardiovascular disease.展开更多

Chicken embryonic fibroblast （CEF） or chicken embryonic liver （CEL） cells were cotransfected with the AAAV vector and the AAAV helper vector, followed by infection with Marek＇s disease virus （MDV）, avian adenovirus, chicken embryo lethal orphan （CELO） virus or infectious bursal disease virus （IBDV）. Infectious rAAAV particles generated by the two strategies were harvested and titrated on CEF and CEL cells. A significantly higher viral titer was obtained with the helper activity provided by the pHelper vector than by MDV or CELO virus. Further experiments showed that rAAAV-mediated green fluorescent protein （gfp） expression was overtly enhanced by MDV or CELO virus super infection or treatment with sodium butyric acid, but not by IBDV super infection. These data demonstrated that MDV and CELO viruses could provide weak helper activity for propagation of rAAAV, and rAAAV- mediated transgene expression could be enhanced by super infection with the helper viruses.展开更多
