“猪”联“壁”合

上学期期末，班上就涌现出了一大批“自甘堕落”的学生，野猪是其中最厉害的一个。在这节骨眼儿上老班心急如焚，并颁布了新的政策：“成立一个个互帮小组”。

Study on Cloning and Polymorphism of Porcine Adiponectin Promoter

[ Objective] The aim of this study was to provide a basis for study on adiponectin as a candidate gene for fat deposition. [ Method] The promoter sequence of adiponectin was obtained by porcine BAC library screening and primer-walking method. The polymorphisms of adiponectin promoter from 290 pigs, including 5 breeds of Lantang pig, Large spotted pig, Large white pig, Landrace and Duroc, were analyzed with PCR-RFLP. [ Result] At SNP site of adiponectin 5＇-flanking region -1 010 bp （G/A）, GG genotype frequency in Chinese indigenous pigs was significantly higher than that in exotic pigs. At SNP site of adiponectin 5＇-flanking region -394 bp （T/C）, the genotype distribution of Chi- nese indigenous pigs was abundant, while no CC genotype was detected in exotic pigs, and T allele frequency was higher in exotic pigs. [ Conclusion] SNP site mutation of - 1 010 bp （G/A） may lead to changes of the gene transcription level, while SNP site of -394 bp （T/C） properly has no relationship with gene transcription level and fat deposition.

Cloning and Sequence Analysis of Adiponectin Receptor 1 and Receptor 2 cDNA from Guangxi Bama Mini-pig

[ Objective] To clone and analyze the sequence of Adiponectin receptor 1 （ AdipoR1 ） and receptor 2 （AdipoR2） cDNA of Guangxi Bama mini-pig. [Method] The Adiponectin receptors cDNAs were amplified by RT-PCR using skeletal muscle total RNA as template and then ligated into pMD18-T vector after purification. The recombinant pMD18-T vector was transformed into the E. coil DH5α for identification and sequencing. And the results were compared with the cDNA sequence from other species. [Result] The fragments, 1 128 bp and 1 161 bp in size, were amplified by RT-PCR and respectively consistent with the coding sequence of AdipoR1 gene and AdipoR2 gene. The homology analysis showed that the sequences of AdipoR1 gene and AdipoR2 gene were respectively 99.8% and 99.7% homologous to the sequence of domestic pig reported in GenBank with one base and three base missense mutations correspondingly. [ Conclusion] The AdipoR1 gene and AdipoR2. gene were successfully amplified from Guangxi Bama mini-pig, laying the foundation for the further study of the biological function of AdipoR genes and the design of novel drugs with AdipoR as target.

An ELISA Based on a Truncated Soluble ORF2 Protein for the Detection of PCV2 Antibodies in Domestic Pigs

Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is an important swine disease that is closely associated with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2). The capsid protein (Cap protein) is a major structural protein that has at least three immunoreactive regions, and it can be a suitable candidate antigen for detecting the specific antibodies of a PCV2 infection. In the present study, an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (TcELISA) based on a truncated soluble Cap protein produced in Escherichia coli (E.coli) was established and validated for the diagnostic PCV2 antibodies in swine. The TcELISA was validated by comparison with an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIFA). The diagnostic sensitivity (DSN), specificity (DSP), and accuracy of the TcELISA were 88.6%, 90.7% and 89.4%, respectively. The agreement rate was 89.38% between results obtained with TcELISA and IIFA on 113 field sera. A cross-reactivity assay showed that the method was PCV2-specific by comparison with other sera of viral disease. Therefore ,the TcELISA will be helpful for the development of a reliable serology diagnostic test for large scale detection of PCV2 antibodies and for the evaluation of vaccine against PCV2 in swine.

Development of Multiple ELISAs for the Detection of Antibodies against Classical Swine Fever Virus in Pig Sera

The major immunogenic proteins （Ems, E2 and NS3） of classical swine fever virus （CSFV） （Shimen strain） were expressed in E. coli and purified by affinity chromatography. The recombinant antigens were applied to develop multiple enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays （ELISAs） for the detection of specific antibodies in pig sera. Optimum cut-off values were determined by receiver operating characteristic （ROC） analysis after testing 201 sera of vaccinated pigs and 64 negative sera of unvaccinated piglets. The multiple ELISAs were validated with 265 pig sera yielding high sensitivity and specificity in comparison with the virus neutralization results. The results demonstrated that multiple ELISAs can be a valuable tool for the detection of CSFV infection and serological surveys in CSFV-free countries or for the evaluation of the antibody responses in pigs induced by a live attenuated C-strain vaccination

Determination of chlorpromazine in porcine muscle using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A rapid and accurate high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry（HPLS-MS） method was established for quantification of chlorpromazine in pork. The porcine samples were pretreated with acetonitrile to precipitate proteins and followed by extraction with tert--butyl methyl ether（TBME）. The separation was performed on a 5 μm Agilent XDB--C18 column with gradient elution. The mobile phase A was 0.01 mol/L ammonium formate in water and mobile phase B was acetonitrile. The flow rate was at 0.8 mL/min. Quantification was performed on a triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer using the multiple selected reaction monitoring（MRM） mode. Transition of m/z ＋319.1 to 58.1 was used for the quantification of chlorpromazine. The method was validated at the concentration range of 0.4040 μg/kg to 8.080 μg/kg for chlorpromazine with correlation coefficient of 0.9999. The spiked recoveries were more than 80.0% and the limit of detection（LOD） was 0.052 μg/kg. The developed method, which offers advantages of convenience, rapid, specificity and higher sensitivity, can be used for determination of chlorpromazine hydrochloride in porcine muscles.
