Description

Application of tamoxifen and method for constructing cleft palate animal model
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of genetic engineering, in particular to application of tamoxifen and a method for constructing a cleft palate animal model.
Background
Since the completion of the human genome project, life has entered scientific research into the post-gene era, and the core work of the post-genome era is to study the functions of genes. Currently, the most effective method for studying gene function is gene targeting (gene knock-out and knock-in) technology. The gene targeting technology is a new technology developed in the field of life science research in recent years, is developed on the basis of an embryonic stem cell technology and a homologous recombination technology, can directionally operate and change genes, and then obtains information of gene functions by observing and analyzing phenotypes of animals with the changed genes. The gene technology has another important application to making animal models of human diseases.
The research shows that many human diseases are caused by gene mutation, and the gene targeting technology can accurately control genes on animal chromosomes so as to produce animal models with the same phenotype as the human diseases, which has very important practical significance for researching the pathogenic mechanism of the human diseases, particularly for searching specific drugs for treating the human diseases. However, the traditional gene knockout can cause deletion mutation of the genome of all cells, often causes serious developmental defect or embryonic death, and is not beneficial to analysis of the gene function at the later development stage, and the current selective gene knockout successfully solves the problem, and can delete a certain gene at a specific time and a specific site, so that the function of the gene and the change of related gene expression can be better understood.
Cleft palate is a congenital craniofacial developmental deformity which is common in newborns, the incidence rate of the newborns is 1/700 in the world, the incidence rate of the newborns in China is 1.82 per thousand, and China is one of the countries with the largest number of cleft lip and palate patients in the world at present. The etiology and mechanism of cleft palate are complex and the pathogenesis and mechanism of cleft palate are unclear. TGFBR1, also known as ALK5(activin receptor like kinase 5), is widely expressed in most cells and specifically responds to TGF-beta signals. The human ALK5 protein consists of 426 amino acids and has a molecular mass of about 55 kD. TGF- β s is a group of polypeptide growth factors involved in embryonic development in many ways, and 3 subtypes have been identified from mammals: TGF-beta 1, TGF-beta 2 and TGF-beta 3, have 70 to 80 percent of homology. The TGF β subtype plays an important role as an endogenous factor in mammalian palatogenesis. The cleft palate model can be obtained by knocking out Tgfbr1 to study the mechanism of cleft palate occurrence. The reported mouse cleft palate model established by Dudas et al and with Tgfbr1 gene knocked out under K14 condition has a soft palate posterior cleft palate phenotype, but the Dudas model has wide range and may have the expression of strong gene function complementation effect to reduce deformity, wherein Tgfbr1 is knocked out in all epithelia.

The genotype adopted by the invention is Tgfbrf/fThe K14Cre + mouse is constructed by adopting an embryonic stem cell technology, firstly, a gene sequence which respectively contains a LoxP site at two ends of a Tgfbr1 third exon is constructed in vitro, and then the gene sequence constructed in vitro is transferred into an embryonic stem cell to replace the original gene sequence in a cell genome through homologous recombination. The embryonic stem cells thus treated were re-implanted into the uterus of pseudopregnant miceIn addition, the transgenic mouse is allowed to develop into a complete embryo and finally becomes a transgenic mouse. In this transgenic mouse, LoxP sites were introduced into introns of the corresponding genes, theoretically without affecting the functions of the corresponding genes, and thus the phenotype of the mouse was normal in general.
The genotype adopted by the invention is Tgfbr1f/fK14 Cre-mice are obtained by oocyte injection or embryonic stem cell technology, and in the mice, Cre recombinase is placed under the control of K14 promoter, so that the Cre recombinase can be expressed under a certain condition.
Preferably, the mouse adopted by the invention is subjected to key amino acid mutation in an estrogen ligand binding region, endogenous estrogen can not be bound with the estrogen ligand binding region, and only exogenous estrogen analogue tamoxifen can be bound with the endogenous estrogen ligand binding region, so that the knockout effect of the exogenous estrogen ligand binding region is exerted. The mutation is specifically that the 525 th amino acid of the mouse estrogen receptor is mutated from glycine to arginine.
Specifically, the method for constructing the transgenic mouse used in the present invention is constructed according to the method provided in the literature "Progressive tumor formation with microorganism and with conditional deletion of TGF-beta signaling in head and novel epitope is associated with activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway".

And Cre-Most of the palatine compartment of the fetal rat had fused, and a small cleft was seen in 1/3 of the posterior palatine compartment. HE staining visible Cre+The fetal rat has enlarged tongue body, occupies most oral cavity, and palatine process has rotated to the upper part of tongue body and grows to horizontal direction, but two lateral palatine processes do not contact, i.e. cleft palate occurs, Cre-The tongue of the fetal rat is changed into a flat shape,descending into oral cavity, lifting palatine process to the upper part of tongue body, growing horizontally and fusing, sealing oral cavity, and fusing palatine parts to form obvious incompletely degenerated mesolamella without cleft palate (fig. 2). In addition, experiments have shown that tamoxifen (concentration 100mg/mL, 50 or 75 μ L each per day, continuous administration to pregnant mice for 5 days) in Cre is administered+Fetal mice do not exhibit the cleft palate phenotype.
