The invention discloses a cell strain MSCs for overexpression of an Nrf2 gene as well as a preparation method and application of the cell strain MSCs. The preparation method comprises the following steps: performing PCR amplification on a human-derived Nrf2 gene ORF; performing purification and double enzyme digestion on the PCR product obtained in the step (1), then connecting the PCR product with the framework plasmid pLV-CMV-XbaI-BamHI-GFP to construct an Nrf2 slow virus recombinant vector, and after conversion, selecting clone and determining positive clone; sequencing the positive clone, and after no mutation is determined, performing amplification massively; leading the recombinant vector and an auxiliary plasmid in a 293 FT cell to obtain a virus; using the virus to infect the 3-5 th generation hUC-MSCs cells so as to obtain the cell strain MSCs for overexpression of the Nrf2 gene. According to the invention, the overexpression of Nrf2 in MSCs is stably performed to increase the cell activity, and a higher anti-apoptosis feature is also realized under the anoxic and oxidative stress conditions; Nrf2-MSCs with the treatment level amount is obtained in vitro and can serve as an excellent tool cell for preclinical study of MSCs and can be used for preparing a medicine for enhancing preclinical study of MSCs transplanting.
