BEAS-2B cells are stimulated through PPD, it is proved that the IGF1R gene has susceptibility correlation with TB, the correlation between the IGF1R gene and a tumor-related pathway and a PI3K-Akt signal pathway and related key functional genes are determined, a new thought is provided for research on TB morbidity and tuberculosis susceptibility, and a foundation is laid for the IGF1R gene serving as a new target in TB diagnosis and treatment.

The present invention discloses the application of bovine SP110 gene splicing editing in enhancing the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle, belonging to the technical field of bovine anti-tuberculosis breeding. The present invention starts from splicing-related cis-acting elements, and regulates the alternative splicing reaction of bovine SP110 by introducing cis-acting elements, thereby affecting the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle. The cis-acting element sequence is named the pre-SAND-exon sequence, which is located in exon 12 and the adjacent 5'-terminal intron 12 of the human or equine SP110 gene, and the sequences are shown in SEQ ID NO.1 and SEQ ID NO.2. The present invention first regulates the alternative splicing of the bovine SP110 gene by introducing the pre-SAND-exon sequence into the bovine SP110 gene, reduces the expression abundance of the spliceosome bSP110c with lower anti-tuberculosis ability, and regulates the higher abundances of the spliceosomes bSP110a and bSP110b with anti-tuberculosis infection ability. The provided bovine SP110 gene splicing editing can effectively improve the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle, can be used for the breeding of anti-tuberculosis cattle, effectively simplifies the breeding method, improves the breeding efficiency, and saves the breeding cost.

The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicine, in particular to application of salvianolic acid in preparation of an anti-tuberculosis drug.

From the aspect of action mechanism, the salvianolic acid A has various biological activities such as inflammation resistance, oxidation resistance and immunoregulation, and can inhibit the growth and reproduction of mycobacterium tuberculosis and enhance the immune defense capability of the body to tubercle bacillus through the multi-target synergistic effect, thereby achieving the purpose of treating tuberculosis.

The present invention relates to new norbornen analogues of formula (I), wherein the norbornen moiety is in R5 and to the use of norbornen analogues as a drug, in particular for the prevention and / or treatment of a mycobacterial infection or for the prevention and / or treatment of a disease caused by infection with a mycobacterium.

The invention belongs to the field of biological medicines, and provides an application of acetoacetic acid and derivatives thereof in preparation of medicines for treating or relieving hepatotoxicity caused by antituberculosis medicines. The hepatocytes formed by differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells are verified, and hydrazine is a metabolite with the strongest toxicity, so that the content of acetoacetic acid in the metabolite in the cells is reduced. Acetoacetic acid is one of main ketone metabolites in the ketone metabolism process, and cells can convert acetoacetic acid into acetoacetyl coenzyme A through succinyl coenzyme A: 3-oxo acid coenzyme A transferase. According to the invention, the OXCT1 gene in the human induced pluripotent stem cell is knocked out through CRISPR-cas9 and the human induced pluripotent stem cell is differentiated into the hepatocyte, so that the knockout of the OXCT1 gene increases the content of acetoacetic acid and reduces hepatic differentiation cell death caused by hydrazine.

The invention discloses application of a PAPSS2 gene as a target spot in prevention and treatment of tuberculosis, the PAPSS2 gene is knocked out or knocked down, so that survival of mycobacterium bovis, mycobacterium tuberculosis, BCG and mycobacterium smegmatis in host cells can be remarkably inhibited, and normal proliferation of the host cells is not affected. Meanwhile, the PAPSS2 is highly conserved in mammals, so that the PAPSS2 can be widely applied to prevention and treatment of tuberculosis caused by humans and animals, can also be used as a target for gene editing animal design, is applied to genetic therapy and disease-resistant breeding, and has rich application and economic values.
