Description

Luciferase reporter gene-based cytotoxicity rapid detection method, cell strain construction method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of pollutant cytotoxicity detection, and particularly relates to a luciferase reporter gene-based rapid cytotoxicity detection method, a cell strain construction method and application thereof.
Background
According to the incomplete statistics, the method has the advantages that,the number of chemicals registered in the world is 2.5 million, and about 13 to 14 ten thousand chemicals are sold, produced and used, about 4000 more chemicals are frequently used, and the number increases at a rate of 2 ten thousand every year. Chemicals such as chemical drugs and practical, food additives, agricultural chemicals, building decoration materials, cosmetics, etc. are frequently present in the production and life of people, and the effects of these chemicals on human health and living things are receiving close attention. When various chemical substances generated in daily life of people directly or indirectly enter a water body and exceed the water body load to cause water pollution, aquatic organisms are influenced or human health is indirectly influenced. However, conventional water quality indicators such as COD, BOD indicating water pollution5Total nitrogen and total phosphorus, etc. cannot indicate the toxic effect of the water body; traditional toxicity detection methods such as a luminescent bacteria test, an Ames test, a micronucleus test, a comet assay and the like and an in vivo toxicity test can detect the water toxicity, but the method is time-consuming and labor-consuming. The toxicity detection technology based on the luciferase reporter gene is favored by the advantages of simplicity, rapidness, high sensitivity, good repeatability and the like.
Many environmental pollutants cause serious toxic effects by inducing cell death. Traditional cell death methods include apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy. Iron death is a newly discovered form of iron-dependent, non-apoptotic programmed cell death in recent years. Iron metabolism disorders and lipid peroxidation are two major links of iron death, and the processes are accompanied by disorders of energy metabolism, inflammation, up-regulation of oxidative stress and functional impairment of important organelles in cells. Recent studies have shown that iron death is one of the common toxic effects of pollutants. Therefore, a reporter gene cell strain capable of indicating early iron death related cytotoxicity effect is constructed, and pollutants and early cytotoxicity of actual water can be detected more sensitively.

The stronger the toxicity of the water sample, the higher the luciferase activity and the stronger the bioluminescence. The results of the experiment are shown in FIG. 6.
As can be seen from FIG. 6, the significant difference (p <0.05) exists between the water sample toxicant-infected groups with different concentrations and the control group, the luciferase activity is enhanced by the water sample exposure, a certain dose effect relationship exists between the luciferase activity and the water sample concentration, and the luciferase activity is increased to 2.6 times by the water sample toxicant-infected with the relative concentration multiple of 75.
