The present disclosure provides methods of manufacturing cell-laden scaffolds comprising lipid-producing cells comprising confining lipid-producing precursor cells in a three-dimensional (3D) environment and culturing the lipid- producing precursor cells confined in the 3D environment in a food-grade differentiation medium to obtain the cell-laden scaffold comprising lipid-producing cells. In one embodiment, the 3D environment is formed by a mixture comprising lipid-producing precursor cells and a food-grade polymericsolution, wherein the food-grade polymeric solution comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of alginate, gelatin, pectin, agarose, carrageenan, gellan gum, konjac glucomannan, cellulose, etc. and combinations thereof, the lipid-producing precursor cells are selected from the group consisting of adipose-derived stem cells, preadipocytes mesenchymal stem cells, embryonic stem cells, induced- pluripotent stem cells and combinations thereof, the lipid-producing cells are selected from adipocytes, hepatocytes, sebocytes, mammary epithelia cells, keratinocytes and combinations thereof, and the food-grade differentiation medium comprises a fatty acid.

The application relates to the technical field of biology, and discloses a method for inducing a cell line of immortalized musk deer scent glands to synthesize dihydrotestosterone, wherein the cell line is obtained by transfecting a primary musk deer scent gland epithelial cell with a lentivirus carrying an SV40 Large T antigen and performing resistance screening; the cell line is in an epithelial cell form and stably expresses keratin 18, cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme, 17 alpha-hydroxylase and 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Through lentivirus-mediated SV40 Large T antigen transfection, the primary musk deer scent gland epithelial cell breaks through the limit of replicative senescence and obtains unlimited proliferation capacity, effectively overcomes the defects that the primary cell is prone to fibrosis and rapidly loses metabolic function during in-vitro culture, provides a standardized cell model with a clear genetic background and persistent metabolic activity for biological manufacturing of dihydrotestosterone, and relieves the dependence on endangered animal live resources.

The invention relates to the technical field of molecular biology, in particular to an MUC15 gene segment, expression vector construction of the MUC15 gene segment and an expression vector transfection method of the MUC15 gene segment, and the nucleotide sequence of the MUC15 gene segment influencing buffalo mammary epithelial cell triglyceride and fatty acid synthesis is shown as SEQ No.1. The MUC15 gene segment is obtained by amplifying a primer pair, and the primer pair is used for amplifying the buffalo mammary epithelial cell triglyceride and fatty acid synthesis. The primer pair is specifically as follows: F: 5 '-AGTCCGGACTCAGATCTCGAGATGTTGACTCAGCCAAAATTCTG-3', F: 5 '- And R: 5 '-AATTCGAAGCTTGAGCTCGAGCTTACACGAAGTGGAGG-3'. Compared with the prior art, the buffalo mammary epithelial cell MUC15 gene fragment influencing the synthesis of triglyceride and fatty acid in the buffalo mammary epithelial cell is obtained, and a pEGFP-C1-MUC15 eukaryotic expression vector is constructed and transfected to the buffalo mammary epithelial cell, so that the synthesis of triglyceride by the buffalo mammary epithelial cell is promoted, and the milk fat content in buffalo milk is increased.

The invention discloses an immortalized egg shell gland epithelial cell line and application thereof. The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to an immortalized egg shell gland epithelial cell line and application thereof. The construction method of the immortalized egg shell gland epithelial cell line comprises the following steps: 1) obtaining SV40 overexpression lentivirus; 2) transfecting the lentivirus obtained in the step 1) to chicken primary eggshell gland epithelial cells; amplifying the transfected cells for 3-4 generations, and screening puromycin to obtain successfully transfected eggshell gland epithelial cells; and (3) carrying out subculture on the successfully transfected eggshell gland epithelial cells obtained in the step (2) to obtain the stably subcultured immortalized eggshell gland epithelial cells. The immortalized egg shell gland epithelial cell provided by the invention can provide a reliable cell model for researching related functions of poultry egg shell glands, and has an important value for developing a novel feed additive capable of improving chicken genital tract health and egg shell quality.
