Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and particularly relates to a construction method and application of a spontaneous ankylosing spondylitis model.
Background
Ankylosing spondylitis (ankylosing spondylitis, AS) is a systemic disease that is dominated by chronic inflammation of the medial axis joint, mainly involving the sacroiliac joint and the spinal joint, and advanced stages can lead to joint deformity and "bamboo-like" changes in the spine, causing serious physical deformity and disability. The prevalence of AS in China is about 0.3%, and the number of patients is estimated to be more than 400 ten thousand. AS mostly developed in young and young (20-40 years), the average age of onset of chinese patients is 29.2 years, with men being higher than women (men: women=2.8:1). AS is a chronic progressive disease, and existing drugs cannot block the disease process. Once a patient develops a disease, the patient often loses work capacity gradually over a period of ten years. Early onset, high onset and high disability of AS bring great pain to patients and families, and become a heavy health burden of the society of China.
AS mainly involves the axises and joints, and human tissues are difficult to obtain. Therefore, AS experimental animal models are extremely important for our deep understanding of pathogenesis and development of new therapeutic strategies. In the past two decades, researchers have constructed a variety of AS-related animal models, including HLA-B27 transgenic rat/mouse models, inflammation-related models, ankylosing spondylitis models, and the like. These experimental animal models make an important contribution to our understanding of the pathological mechanisms of AS complex diseases, but there are still drawbacks and limitations. Taking the most widely used AS animal model HLA-B27/h beta 2m double transgenic rat AS an example, the model can generate the similar spondylitis and hindpaw arthritis AS human AS, but has the problems of long modeling period (the rat needs to be fed until 7-9 months of age), low modeling rate (the rat generates the spondylitis only by 30-50% at 9 months of age), light symptoms, clinical ankylosing spondylitis and the like. To date, no animal model has been able to fully mimic the clinical manifestations and pathological progression of human AS. Therefore, it is important to accelerate the construction of experimental animal models which spontaneously produce AS and are more pathologically close to clinical patients.

EXAMPLE 1 Carrier transfection and detection of muteins
1. Vector construction
7 BMP9 eukaryotic expression vectors, namely a BMP9 wild type plasmid, six mutant plasmids (p.R316S, S320C, V109L, S282 frame shift mutation, A353T and V423M) were constructed, transfected into eukaryotic cells HEK 293EBNA, the cells themselves and cell supernatants were harvested, and the expression of the mutant proteins was detected using BMP9 antibodies.
2. Results
The BMP9 protein is 429 amino acids in total, comprising 3 domains: n-terminal Signal peptide domain (amino acids 1-22), intermediate precursor domain (Pro-domain, amino acids 23-319) and C-terminal Mature BMP9 (amino acids 320-429). After the full-length protein Pre-Pro-BMP9 is translated in vivo, the protein is secreted out of the cell under guidance of a signal peptide. The originally linked Pro-domain and Mature-BMP9 are cleaved at the 316-319 amino acid (RXR) position by Fusion enzyme, then covalently bound to form dimers, and transported throughout the blood circulation as shown in FIG. 1A.
BMP9 protein 316-319 amino acids (RXXR) are highly conserved across all BMP family proteins, and are important for proper protein shear maturation and function. The BMP9 mutation p.r316s of interest in this patent is located at position 1 of the "RXXR" domain, converting "R (arginine)" to "S (serine)" as shown in fig. 1B.
To clarify the effect of BMP9 mutation p.r316s on protein, we constructed eukaryotic expression vectors with R316S and 5 additional different BMP9 mutations (S320C, V109L, S282 frame shift mutations, a353T and V423M) and transferred into 293 cells. Western blot detects the BMP9 protein expression in cell supernatants, and none of the 6 mutant plasmid supernatants detected the substance-BMP 9 protein as shown in the blue frame line of FIG. 2A, but R316S expressed a large amount of uncleaved mutant protein as shown in the red frame line of FIG. 2B, suggesting that the R316S mutation not only reduced substance-BMP 9, but also produced a large amount of exogenously uncleaved mutant protein.
Example 2 construction and detection of spontaneous ankylosing spondylitis model
1. Construction of vectors
1. Artificially synthesizing human mutant BMP9 full-length CDS; this mutant differs from wild-type BMP9 (GeneID: 2658) only by one nucleotide in the CDS sequence c.G948T.
2. Construction of a transgenic plasmid containing the full-length CDS of the humanized mutant BMP was designated pcDNA3.1-ALB-BMP9-MUT. The plasmid is constructed autonomously in a laboratory, and the ALB gene promoter sequence drives the humanized mutant BMP9 gene to be highly expressed in the liver.
3. The full length of the pcDNA3.1-ALB-BMP9-MUT plasmid was 8574bp, and the nucleic acid was confirmed to be correct by Sanger sequencing.
4. The amino acid sequence expressed by the humanized mutant BMP9 is shown as SEQ ID NO. 1, and the specific mutation is that the 316 th amino acid is changed from arginine to serine.

2. Superovulation: 10 SD mice of 3-4 weeks of age were injected with hormone for supervoling.
3. Fertilized egg injection: about 100 fertilized eggs were taken for injection.
4. Preparation of recipient mice: female rats with a age of 8 weeks were mated with male ligatured rats, and male rats with a thrombus were selected.
5. Embryo transfer: the fertilized eggs after injection are transplanted to the ampulla of the oviduct of the recipient mouse.
3. Genotyping
1. Tail number cutting: rats born for 7-10 days were numbered by cutting off the toes and tail tips.
2. Genomic DNA extraction: rat genomic DNA was extracted using the genome DNA extraction kit (EE 101-12) from the whole gold (Transgen) company.

4. Analysis of results:
after completion of PCR, the PCR reaction was stopped with a 6×loading buffer, and electrophoresis was performed on a 1% agarose gel, and only rats carrying the BMP9 transgenic fragment could amplify 554bp positive band, while the same-litter negative rats had no band (FIG. 3). For the amplified PCR product, the presence of the mutation site, BMP9 c.948G > T, p.arg316Ser, was verified by Sanger sequencing (FIG. 4). Western Blot examined the expression of BMP9 in lung and liver tissues of WT and Tg-BMP9-MUT rats (FIG. 5), endogenous BMP9 protein was detected in both lung and liver tissues of both rats (blue arrow), but both lung and liver tissues of Tg-BMP9-MUT rats expressed a mutant BMP9 protein (red arrow), which was present only in mutant rats and had a molecular weight of 60KD, which was significantly greater than endogenous BMP9 protein (55 KD).
4. Breeding offspring:
1. and mating the F0 generation rat with the wild SD rat to obtain the F1 generation rat, and identifying the F1 generation Tg-BMP9-MUT rat by PCR.
2. Male mice heterozygous for each generation were male-female 1:2 proportion and wild female mice are matched in a cage to obtain the next generation of rats.
3. By 2022, 6 months, rats had been passaged to F5 generation, were genotype stable, had a proportion of 23-83% positive rats per generation and an average positive rate of 50%, conforming to mendelian's law of genetics (table 4).
TABLE 4 statistical results of breeding of Tg-BMP9-MUT rats
5. Spontaneous ankylosing spondylitis onset phenotyping of Tg-BMP9-MUT rats
1. Wild type rats (WT), BMP9 knockout rats (BMP 9-KO), wild type BMP9 transgenic rats (Tg-BMP 9), and Tg-BMP9-MUT male rats, which were not modified by any gene, had a substantially normal phenotype before 1 month of age, with no obvious abnormalities in spinal column, bone, etc.
2. Tg-BMP9-MUT male rats develop spontaneous skeletal abnormalities from 1.5 months of age. 100% of male Tg-BMP9-MUT rats developed skeletal abnormalities by 3 months of age (FIG. 6D), WT wild-type rats without any genetic modification (FIG. 6A), BMP9 knockout rats BMP9-KO (FIG. 6B), and wild BMP9 transgenic rats Tg-BMP9 (FIG. 6C) did not develop skeletal abnormalities. Therefore, WT wild-type rats without any genetic modification were used as control rats in subsequent experiments.
The following phenotypes were specifically observed in 3 month old WT wild-type rats without any genetic modification as a control group and 3 month old male Tg-BMP9-MUT male rats as an experimental group:
1) The control group rats had no abnormalities in the spine and hind legs (fig. 6A); the rats in the experimental group were scoliotic and the right hind paw everted (fig. 6D).
2) No sternal abnormality in rats in the control group (fig. 7A); the sternum of the rats in the experimental group were protruded, and the left front leg and the right rear leg were not bendable (fig. 7B).
3) Rat tail of control group was not abnormal (fig. 8A); the experimental group rats had strong tails and were unable to droop naturally (fig. 8B).
4) The hind legs of the rats in the control group are free of abnormalities and flexible in joints (fig. 9A); the hind legs of the rats in the experimental group were swollen, joint stiffness (fig. 9B).
3. The 3 month old WT wild type rats without any genetic modification are used as a control group, the 3 month old male Tg-BMP9-MUT male rats are used as an experimental group, and CT detection results are consistent with the abnormal phenotype observed in appearance.
The whole body bone CT 3D modeling shows that the bones of rats in the control group are normal, and the limbs are normal to bend after anesthesia (figure 10A); the rats in the experimental group had a spinal column bulge, a forelimb deformity, a posterior sacroiliac joint deformity, and neither the right forelimb nor the hindlimb were able to bend normally after anesthesia (fig. 10B).
CT 3D modeling at the top view shows that the spinal column of the rats in the control group is normal (FIG. 11A); the spinal column of the rats of the experimental group was obviously laterally bent (fig. 11B).
Local fine CT detection of the spinal column shows that the spinal column of the rat in the control group is normal (figure 12A); the experimental group rats had hyperosteogeny, bone fusion occurred, and typical "bamboo-like" lesions occurred (fig. 12B).
4. 3D imaging analysis was performed on the tibial trabeculae of the rats using 3 month old WT wild-type rats without any genetic modification as a control group and 3 month old male Tg-BMP9-MUT male rats as an experimental group, and the analysis results showed that the bone density of the experimental group Tg-BMP9-MUT rats was significantly reduced relative to the control group rats (FIG. 13).
The quantitative analysis results of bone density are shown in Table 5, the tibial bone density of the experimental group Tg-BMP9-MUT rat is only 52 percent (158+/-40 vs 304+/-8, P < 0.001) of the tibial bone density of the control group WT rat, the femoral bone density of the experimental group Tg-BMP9-MUT rat is only 28 percent (63+/-25 vs 229+/-12, P < 0.001) of the femoral bone density of the control group WT rat, and the number of the bone trabeculae of the experimental group Tg-BMP9-MUT rat is only 69 percent (P < 0.05) of the bone trabeculae of the control group WT rat, which indicates that the bone density and the bone trabeculae of the experimental group Tg-BMP9-MUT rat are obviously reduced.
