Problems solved by technology

The co-transfection of a single gene cannot ensure that both genes are transfected into the same cell, so that the stimulating effect of TERT on DC and the effect of IL-18 on significantly enhancing antigen presentation cannot be simultaneously exerted

[0068] Example 2 Detection of Biological Function of Human Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase (hTERT) / Human Interleukin 18 (hIL18) Fusion Gene

[0069] 1. Detection of biological function of fusion gene stimulating KG-1 cells to secrete γ-interferon

[0070] Detection of γ-interferon content in cell culture supernatant: take out 0.1ml of culture supernatant of 3T3 cells transfected with fusion gene, from 1×10 6 Take 0.1ml of the KG-1 cells per ml to a 96-well plate, and use the original solution, 1:2 dilution, 1:5 dilution, 1:10 dilution, 1:20 dilution, normal 3T3 cell culture supernatant (negative control ), and standard IL-18 stimulation solution (positive control) and blank control (PBS). Three replicate wells were set up for each concentration. Quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent technology (ELISA method) was used, and the operation steps were carried out according to the instructions of the kit. Absorbance (A value) was measured at a wavelength of 490 nm on a microp...

Abstract

The invention discloses a cell factor fusing protein of human terminal-enzyme reverse transcriptase (hTERT) / human leucocyte 18(hIL18), which is characterized by the following: targeting tumour cell to kill; improving immune effect for dendritic cell; expanding tumour-proof scale; reducing medical cost obviously; providing the base of treating vaccine for tumour.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to biological technology, and relates to the construction and expression of a fusion gene carrier and its application in the preparation of tumor biotherapeutic drugs. Background technique [0002] Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a new type of cytokine cloned in 1995, also known as interferon-γ inducible factor. It can stimulate the secretion of gamma interferon and enhance ThI type immune response. The early studies on the induction of IL-18 mainly focused on the liver. Later, some researchers used in vitro cultured macrophages to obtain IL-18cDNA through appropriate induction. In this study, IL-18 gene was directly amplified by RT-PCR method from the RNA of peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy people, indicating that under physiological conditions, monocytes have the expression of IL-18 mRNA. Functionally, IL-18 is closer to IL-12, and is considered to be a potential anti-tumor and anti-infection cytokine. Recent studies h...
