After DNA sequencing, it was inserted into pGEX-2T between the sites of EcoR Ⅰ and Sma Ⅰ, then recombinant plasmid p2T-ICA69 was constructed and introduced into E.coli. The GST-ICA69 fusion protein was expressed by the induction of IPTG. The recombinant ICA69 proteins were used to detect the antibodies against hICA69 in 100 healthy subjects and type Ⅰ diabetic serum by the use of indirect ELISA. The sequence analysis showed that the amplified fragments contained 1449 bp, encoded 483 amino acids, and had been correctly inserted into pGEX-2T vector. The recombinant proteins expressed in the prokaryotic cells had immunogenicity and could be used to detect antibodies against ICA69 in type Ⅰ diabetic serum. Finally it can be concluded in this paper that the expression products obtained by the method of gene engineering are recombinant ICA69 antigen and may be used to improve the forecast rate and the diagnostic rate of type Ⅰ diabetes in combination with other tests.展开更多

A numberstudies using mouse models have addressed how PTPN22 predisposes to T1D. PTPN22 downmodulation, overexpression or expression of the variant gene in genetically manipulated mice has generated controversial results. These discrepancies probably derive from the fact that PTPN22 has differential effects on innate and adaptive immune responses. Moreover, the effects of PTPN22 are dependent on other genetic variables. Here we discuss these findings and try to explain the discrepancies. Exploring the mechanism by which PTPN22 contributes to islet-specific autoimmunity could help us understand its role in T1D pathogenesis and exploit it as a potential therapeutic target to prevent the disease.展开更多

We show that osteopontin (OPN) mRNA is increased in a dose-dependent manner in islets from RIP-PDE3B mice, as compared to wild-type islets. In addition, in silico analysis shows that PDE3B and OPN are interacting. Furthermore, OPN interacts with protein kinase CK2 ina distinct submodule of the protein-protein interaction network. We studied PDE3B and OPN proteins and, in some cases, also PDE1B and PDE4C, under conditions of relevance for insulin secretion. In the presence of forskolin, PDE inhibitors, insulin, or a protein kinase CK2 inhibitor, similar alterations in protein levels of PDE3B and OPN are shown. In summary, results from using a number of strategies demonstrate a connection between PDE3B and OPNas well as a role for protein kinase CK2 inpancreatic β-cells.展开更多
