Embodiment 1
[0031] Relative quantitative analysis of CDO protein expression in various tissues and organs of 6-week-old female mice was carried out by Western Blot method. The expression level in organs is very low ( figure 1 Middle A panel); consistent with the existing relevant reports. Western Blot quantitative analysis of CDO protein in mammary gland tissue of female mice at different developmental stages found that the expression of CDO protein in mammary gland tissue of each developmental stage showed obvious regular changes. CDO is highly expressed in the mammary gland during puberty to adult development (3 weeks to 12 weeks of age, when the mammary ducts are rapidly extending and massively branched), and during pregnancy and lactation (when the mammary glands are heavily differentiated) The expression level of CDO in the mammary gland decreased significantly, and after the lactation period, the mammary gland regression period (at this time, the mammary acinus degenerated, and the...
Embodiment 2
[0033] In order to reveal the regulatory effect of CDO on mammary gland development, we used CRISPR / Cas9 technology to set two reversely shortened sgRNA targets in the coding region of the first exon of the CDO gene ( figure 2Middle A) Cooperate with Cas9n (D10A) nickase to avoid off-target occurrence. Utilize T7 transcription kit (mMessage Machine T7kit, Life Company) to synthesize Cas9n gene mRNA, utilize T7 efficient transcription kit (Hiscribe TM T7 High yield RNA synthesis Kit, NEB) synthesizes two sgRNAs. CDO gene frameshift mutant mice were obtained by microinjecting Cas9n mRNA (60 ng / μL) and two sgRNAs (20 ng / μL) into fertilized mice and embryo transfer ( figure 2 in panels B and C). Homozygous mutant (CDO gene knockout) individuals were obtained through amplification, and the loss of CDO protein expression in the mammary gland of CDO knockout mice was verified by Western Blot ( figure 2 Middle D panel).
Embodiment 3
[0035] After careful observation, it was found that the offspring of CDO gene knockout female mice were stunted and unable to survive, but their offspring survived normally and developed healthily after being fostered in lactating wild-type (CDO non-knockout) female mice. It shows that the female mice with CDO gene knockout are insufficient in lactation and the offspring are stunted and die. The mammary gland whole tissue staining was further carried out, and the experimental steps included: collecting the fourth pair of mammary glands of the mouse, laying them flat on a glass slide, and fixing them overnight in Carnot's fixative solution (alcohol: chloroform: glacial acetic acid = 6: 3: 1 volume ratio), and then Equilibrate in alcohol with a volume fraction of 70% for 5 minutes, place in acetic acid magenta staining solution for 2 hours, dehydrate with alcohol gradient (80%-90%-95%-100%) (10 minutes per level), xylene transparent 10 Minutes, neutral gum sealing. For staining...
