Preparation method of RANKL-TNF sample region fusion protein
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of bone factor preparation, and particularly relates to a preparation method of RANKL-TNF sample region fusion protein.
Background
Bone tissue is composed of organic and inorganic substances, mainly connective tissue, and is a dynamic organ. In order to maintain structural integrity while maintaining organ mineral balance, bone tissue must be continually structurally remodeled and repaired; this process is the reconstruction of bone. Bone remodeling refers primarily to the metabolic processes of bone that regulate bone structure and function. The metabolic processes of bone mainly involve two types of cells, osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Osteoclasts are primarily involved in the digestion of bone, whereas osteoblasts play a role in bone matrix formation, mineralization of cells, and finally differentiation into osteoblasts and bone lining cells.
Osteoblasts and osteoclasts interact while maintaining bone tissue homeostasis under the regulation of various factors. Disruption of bone remodeling homeostasis leads to a variety of clinical bone diseases including osteoporosis, bone sclerosis, and the like. The process of bone remodeling is accomplished by the coordination of a population of functional cells, called the Basic Multicellular Unit (BMU). The basic multicellular unit is mainly composed of osteoclast, osteoblast, bone lining cell, osteocyte and endothelial cell, which ensure the normal proceeding of bone reconstruction through the interaction of various cytokines. RANKL is an important cytokine secreted by osteoblasts and endothelial cells, which plays an important role in bone remodeling.
Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 11 is also known as receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand, osteoprotegerin ligand, TNFSF11, RANKL, TRANCE, OPGL and CD254, is a one-way type II membrane protein, and belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family. RANKL and RANK are essential for the development and activation of osteoclasts and for almost all of the triggered bone loss tested. Inhibition of RANKL function by the natural decoy receptor osteoprotegerin (OPG, TNFRSF11B) prevents bone loss in postmenopausal osteoporosis and cancer metastasis. Importantly, RANKL appears to be the cause of arthritic bone and cartilage destruction. RANK-RANKL signaling not only activates a variety of downstream signaling pathways for osteoclast development, but also interacts with other signaling pathways to fine-tune bone homeostasis in normal physiology and disease.
The nuclear factor κ B receptor activator factor ligand (RANKL), its cognate receptor RANK and its natural decoy receptor osteoprotegerin have been identified as the ultimate effector molecule for osteoclastic bone resorption. RANK and RANKL are key regulators of bone remodeling and regulate T cell/dendritic cell communication and lymph node formation. In addition, RANKL and RANK are expressed in mammary epithelial cells and control the development of the lactating mammary gland during pregnancy. Therefore, it is of great significance to research how to effectively prepare RANKL.
