[ Methods] The 14-day-old SPF chickens were immunized with recombinant plasmids expressing VP2 protein and Akirin2 protein, and strength- ened immunization was conducted at the 14＇~ day after the first immunization. Finally, test chickens were challenged with IBDVBC6-85 virulent strain. [ Resultss ] Test results showed that Akirin2 gene could enhance the specific immune response induced by VP2 DNA vaccine, improve the proliferation of peripheral blood lym- phocytes and ＇affect the expressing of cytokines TNF-a, IFN-Y, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL 6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-17 and IL-18. Effects of recombinant plasmids co-ex- pressing Akirin2 protein and VP2 protein on cytokine expression showed some differences with the recombinant plasmids expressing Akirir/2 protein or VP2 protein along. [ Conclusions] Chicken Akirin2 gene could significantly enhance the humoral immune response and cellular immune response induced by VP2 DNA vaccine of IBDV.展开更多
Akirin基因是新近发现的在果蝇NF-κB依赖的Imd信号通路调控中不可或缺的转录因子。在除果蝇以外的昆虫中,Akirin基因是否参与Imd通路的调控,亦或对NF-κB依赖的Toll通路也有调控作用还未有报道。本研究旨在初步研究德国小蠊Blattella g...Akirin基因是新近发现的在果蝇NF-κB依赖的Imd信号通路调控中不可或缺的转录因子。在除果蝇以外的昆虫中,Akirin基因是否参与Imd通路的调控,亦或对NF-κB依赖的Toll通路也有调控作用还未有报道。本研究旨在初步研究德国小蠊Blattella germanica中Akirin基因的基本特征、在不同组织中的表达模式及注射法RNAi实验对Akirin基因沉默效果,以期为Akirin基因功能的研究奠定基础。通过与已报道的其它昆虫的Akirin基因进行同源比对,利用RACE（rapid amplification of c DNA ends）技术,成功从德国小蠊中克隆到1个Akirin基因,该基因全长864 bp,开放阅读框（ORF）大小为543 bp,编码180个氨基酸。蛋白序列比对及进化树结果显示,Akirin基因有非常保守的核定位信号序列,且与内华达古白蚁Zootermopsis nevadensis的亲缘关系最近,同源性为86%。荧光定量PCR的结果表明Akirin基因在德国小蠊检测的4个组织中均有表达,但表达水平有差异,在血淋巴的表达水平最高,其次为脂肪体。通过注射法RNAi实验成功抑制了Akirin基因的表达水平,并且RNAi的效果随时间的延长而更强,在注射72 h后,Akirin基因m RNA的表达水平下降了90%。上述研究为Akirin基因的功能及德国小蠊防治研究提供了科学依据。展开更多
