The transfected cells were cultivated under selective growth medium including G418 and green fluorescent protein (GFP) positive cells were sorted by FACS. Simultaneously, growing transfectants were selected only by G418 in the medium. The GFP expression in stably transfected cells was detected by FACS. Under selective growth conditions with G418, the percentage of GFP positive cells was reduced rapidly and GFP induction was low. In contrast, the percentages of GFP positive cells were increased gradually after FACS. By 3 rounds of GFP selection, the stable high expression cell lines were established. Furthermore, using FACS analysis GFP and the target protein TIM-3 co-expression in the stable transfectants cultured in nonselective medium was detected. Theses results demonstrated that the stably transfected cell lines that express high titer of recombinant protein can be simply and fleetly obtained by using GFP and selective growth medium.展开更多

The recombinant plasmid inserted with CecropinB was transfected into the goat mammary epithelial cell by liposome Tfx^M-20. By screening with G418, the stable transfected goat mammary epithelial cell line was established and the transcription and expression of CecropinB were identified by RT-PCR and agarose diffusion experiment, respectively. Results showed that eukaryotic expression vector pECFP-B was constructed successfully. Stable transfected goat mammary epithelial cell line was established and the CecropinB protein was expressed successfully. It provides the solid foundation for further experimental studies on the function of CecropinB.展开更多

In this study we look at the expresion of RARs and RXRs in 6 HBC cell lines, we found only RARαmRNA level was strong correlated with ER-status. To further inestigate the major role of RARαin retinoidmediated inhibition of growth, we transfected RARαcDNA in two RA-resistant ER-negative HBC cell lines.Analyses of different clonal populations of RARα transfectants from each cell line revealed growth inhibition by retinoids. Our results demonstrates that RARα Plays a major role in mediating retinoids inhibition of growth in HBC cells and adequate levels are required for such actions.展开更多
