Problems solved by technology

However, in the actual modeling process, it is difficult to control the intake and other problems due to the animal's aversion to alcohol, and it is also difficult to popularize and apply
[0007] The animal model of nutritional liver fibrosis mainly causes steatosis of stem cells through unbalanced diet or lack of special nutrients, and then forms liver fibrosis, but it takes a long time, and the preparation of feed is complicated and expensive
[0008] The establishment of combined injury liver fibrosis model is currently mainly a combination of the above methods, by adopting high-fat and low-protein diet, drinking alcohol, and subcutaneous injection of CCl 4 The way of inducing liver fibrosis can obtain a higher formation rate, but the mortality rate can still reach about 20%.
[0009] It can be seen that there are many defects in the current methods of constructing liver fibrosis disease models, which require a long modeling time, and the uncontrollable factors of modeling rate and mortality are strong

Embodiment 1

[0036]Embodiment 1, the construction of the liver fibrosis model of the present invention

[0037] Using mice as target animals, proceed as follows:

[0038] 1. Use the Cre-loxP knockout technology to knock out the 3rd-8th exon sequence of the mouse NF-YA gene at one time to obtain NF-YA Loxp / Loxp Conditional homozygous mice. Transgenic Alb-Cre mice and NF-YA Loxp / Loxp When the conditional homozygous mice were mated, half of the offspring carried both Alb-Cre and NF-YA conditional knockout genes. This animal then interacts with NF-YA Loxp / Loxp Conditional homozygous mice were mated to obtain liver parenchymal cell NF-YA gene conditional knockout homozygous mice (NF-YA Loxp / Loxp / Alb-Cre)( figure 1 A), that is, as the liver fibrosis model of the present invention.

[0039] The knockout strategy in the above examples is to knock out the NF-YA gene using Cre-loxP knockout technology. However, in other embodiments, there are many technical means to achieve gene knockout, su...

[0043] 1. Experimental method

[0044] (1) Mouse genomic DNA extraction: the tail tip of the liver NF-YA gene conditional knockout mouse obtained in Example 1 of the present invention was clipped to extract genomic DNA.

[0045] (2) PCR amplification: PCR reaction system includes 2 μL 2×Master Mix; 2 μL genomic DNA; 1 μL each of primer 1 (NF-YAF1 or F2 or Alb F) and primer 2 (NF-YA R or Alb R); 6 μL ddH2O . PCR reaction program: 94°C pre-denaturation for 2min, 94°C denaturation for 3min, 55°C annealing for 30s, 72°C extension for 30s, after 25-40 cycles, extend at 72°C for 20min, and finally store at 4°C.

[0051] 1. Experimental method

[0052] (1) Preparation of liver tissue protein samples. Isolation Example 2 Liver NF-YA Gene Conditional Knockout Homozygous Mice (NF-YAL Loxp / Loxp / Alb-Cre) liver tissue, while separating NF-YA wt / wt Wild-type genetic mice, NF-YA Loxp / Loxp Conditional homozygous mice, NF-YA Loxp / wt / Alb-Cre liver tissue was used as a control. Protein lysate RIPA was added to the liver tissue, which was ultrasonically broken and lysed on ice for 20 min, and then centrifuged at 4°C and 12000 g for 10 min. The supernatant was aspirated, and the protein concentration in the supernatant was determined by BCA method.

Abstract

The invention provides a construction method and application of a liver fibrosis disease model. According to the method, the NF-YA gene sequence in the genome in the liver parenchymal cells of the target animals is knocked out, so that the target animals show typical liver fibrosis disease characteristics. The target animals can be used as liver fibrosis disease models for research of liver fibrosis diseases, can help clarify the pathogenesis process and mechanism of the liver fibrosis diseases, and provide a new target for treatment or prevention of the diseases.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a construction method and application of a liver fibrosis disease model. Background technique [0002] Liver fibrosis is a major feature shared by most chronic liver diseases. Clinically, it is common in viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver, fatty liver, autoimmune diseases, and autometabolic syndrome. Its main feature is the increase of extracellular matrix (Extracellular Matrix), especially the excessive proliferation of collagen fibers. When fibrous tissue hyperplasia forms cross-linked chains and destroys the original hepatic lobular structure, it can further develop into cirrhosis. After the formation of cirrhosis, the process is irreversible, liver function is lost, and most patients eventually develop into primary liver cancer. Liver fibrosis is reversible as a repair mechanism before cirrhosis develops. Therefore, finding the stimulating factors of fibrosis and an...
