摘要:

试验旨在利用CRISPR/Cas9基因编辑技术构建稳定敲除苹果酸脱氢酶2(malate dehydrogenase 2,MDH2)基因的IPEC-J2单克隆细胞株,并研究敲除MDH2基因后抗呕吐毒素效应。针对MDH2基因序列设计sgRNA插入PX459载体中,构建PX459-sgRNA-MDH2重组质粒;将质粒通过电转导入IPEC-J2细胞中,并加入嘌呤霉素筛选阳性细胞;利用有限稀释法筛选单克隆细胞并进行基因型测序鉴定、荧光定量PCR和蛋白质印迹法验证,获得MDH2基因敲除的单克隆细胞株;最后通过CCK8试剂盒和细胞凋亡与坏死检测试剂盒检测细胞存活情况,测定MDH2敲除细胞株对呕吐毒素的抗性。测序结果显示MDH2基因敲除载体构建成功。利用荧光定量PCR及蛋白免疫印迹法验证了获得的细胞系为MDH2基因敲除的单克隆细胞株。CCK8细胞活力实验结果显示,与野生型细胞相比,敲除MDH2可使IPEC-J2细胞在不同浓度呕吐毒素(4、2、1和0.5 μg/mL)处理5 d时细胞活力分别极显著提高18.67%、19.59%、26.36%和27.01%。流式细胞仪实验结果显示,与野生型细胞相比,敲除MDH2使不同浓度呕吐毒素处理5 d的细胞死亡率分别极显著降低30.33%、15.81%、16.00%和14.70%。利用CRISPR/Cas9系统对IPEC-J2细胞中的MDH2基因进行敲除并筛选获得了MDH2-KO单克隆细胞株,并通过细胞活力和细胞死亡检测,证明该细胞株具有抗呕吐毒素毒性效应的效果,为揭示呕吐毒素诱导宿主细胞死亡的毒性机制提供借鉴,为防治呕吐毒素提供新策略。

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to establish the IPEC-J2 cell line with MDH2 gene knockout by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology and investigate whether MDH2 gene knockout confers resistance to deoxynivalenol. sgRNA sequences targeting MDH2 gene were designed and cloned into PX459 vector; the recombinant plasmid PX459-sgRNA-MDH2 was introduced into the IPEC-J2 cells by electroporation,and puromycin was added to screen KO cell colony generations. The MDH2 KO single cell colony generations were isolated by limited dilution method and validated by genotype sequencing, quantitative PCR and Western blotting to obtain MDH2-KO monoclonal cell colony generation. Finally, the cell viability was detected by CCK8 kit and apoptosis and necrosis assay kit to determine the resistance of MDH2 knockout cell colony generation to deoxynivalenol. The sequencing results showed that the MDH2 knockout vector was successfully constructed. The obtained cell colony generations were validated as MDH2 knockout monoclonal cell colony generations by RT-qPCR and immunoblotting. The CCK8 cell viability assay showed that knockout of MDH2 increased the viability of IPEC-J2 cells by 18.67%, 19.59%, 26.36%, and 27.01% at different concentrations of deoxynivalenol(4, 2, 1, and 0.5 μg/mL)for 5 d compared with wild-type cells. Flow cytometry assays showed that knockout of MDH2 reduced the mortality rate of IPEC-J2 cells by 30.33%, 15.81%, 16.00%, and 14.70% at different concentrations of deoxynivalenol respectively compared with wild-type cells for 5 d. We obtained the MDH2-KO monoclonal cell colony generation by editing the MDH2 gene in IPEC-J2 cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. The resistance of MDH2-KO cell colony generation to deoxynivalenol was demonstrated by cell viability and cell death assays, which provids insight into the toxic mechanism of deoxynivalenol-induced cell death and offers a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of deoxynivalenol.
