Problems solved by technology

Lentivirus is the most commonly used carrier for stable gene transfection labeling, but there are no reports on lentiviral particles carrying multimodal imaging genes (quantitative imaging, morphological imaging, functional imaging) and their transfected labeled cells. There are many technical difficulties in the above purpose, including: 1) The length of multiple reporter genes is relatively large, and the general lentiviral vector is not easy to accommodate, and it is not easy to successfully transfect the target cells
In particular, the use of multiple promoters to drive the expression of each reporter gene separately will further increase the length of the foreign gene, making it more difficult to achieve effective packaging of lentiviral particles and successful transfection of target cells; 2) Linking multiple reporter genes to form a fusion For multimodal imaging genes, the use of a promoter to drive expression can save the length occupied by the promoter, but inappropriate fusion can lead to functional inactivation due to spatial interaction between individual gene products
In addition, the fused gene may also be difficult to obtain highly active lentivirus due to its large length

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a fusion imaging gene and its lentiviral expression plasmid, lentivirus and cells, its preparation method and application. The fusion imaging gene includes a bioluminescence imaging gene, a fluorescent protein gene and a calcium imaging gene, and the three genes are connected through a linking group. Insert the fusion gene into the transformed lentiviral expression plasmid to obtain lentiviral particles carrying the fusion imaging gene. Lentiviral particles can be used to infect different types of cells to obtain fusion imaging gene-labeled cells. Cells marked by the fusion imaging gene in the present invention can simultaneously perform cell number imaging detection, morphological imaging detection and calcium activity functional imaging detection, which is of great use in cell fate tracking.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a fusion imaging gene and its lentiviral expression plasmid, lentivirus, cell, its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Imaging tracing of cell fate has extensive and important applications in the field of biomedical research, such as evaluation of cell responses to specific stimuli, evaluation of cells after transplantation, and so on. Taking cell transplantation research as an example, cell fate tracing, including survival, distribution, differentiation, and functional integration, is an important indicator for evaluating its safety and effectiveness. In previous studies, due to the lack of multimodal imaging gene-marked cell lines, simultaneous tracking of cell survival / distribution, differentiation / morphology, and functional integration after transplantation could not be achieved in the same cell. In order to achieve the above-mentioned different tra...
