Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technology of applying recombinant DNA technology to produce genetically engineered protein medicine, in particular to a method for expressing human interleukin 7 (rhIL-7) in a eukaryotic host. Background technique
[0002] Human interleukin 7 (human interleukin 7, rhIL-7) is an important member of the cytokine interleukin protein family, which is important for regulating the development and survival of lymphocytes. It was first discovered in 1988, when A.E.Namen et al. isolated this cytokine when studying the development of mouse B cells, and it has the function of stimulating the proliferation of mouse pre-B cells. Subsequent scientific studies have found that the number of T cells and B cells in the mice injected with IL-7 is greatly increased, and the development of the lymphatic system is abnormal in mice knocked out of IL-7 and its receptors, so IL-7 plays a very important role in the development of lymphatic...
