This invention belongs to the field of zoonotic
disease prevention and control and
molecular immunology technology, specifically relating to the application of a
biological product that silences or knocks out the ID2
gene in regulating host resistance to
Brucella infection. This invention constructs an ID2
gene knockout macrophage model using
CRISPR / Cas9
gene editing technology and establishes a
Brucella infection
system. Experiments show that ID2
gene knockout significantly enhances the host's ability to clear
Brucella.
RNA-seq analysis shows that ID2 participates in regulating the host's transcriptional response network to Brucella, with its
differentially expressed genes significantly enriched in
lipid metabolism and
autophagy. Mechanistic results indicate that the ID2 gene participates in the regulation of Brucella-mediated lipophage. It can be seen that the ID2 gene affects the
intracellular replication level and lipophage process of Brucella. This invention provides new targets and theoretical basis for
drug development against Brucella infection,
immune regulation, and
disease-resistant breeding.
