Description

Fusion gene for animal castration, expression vector, gene vaccine and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of genetic engineering, in particular to a fusion gene for animal castration, an expression vector, a genetic vaccine and application thereof.
Background
Castration, which is a technique for removing the reproductive system of animals or losing sexual function, aims to eliminate sexual desire and reproductive capacity of animals, and enables the sexuality of the animals to become mild and durable, so that the animals are convenient to raise and manage; the meat quality of the meat animal is improved, and the yield is increased; and the mating behavior in the herd can be controlled, thereby being beneficial to the propagation and breeding of fine breeds. The most common castration technology for animals achieves the aim of castrating animals by castration and removal of testes of male animals, and the castration process comprises the steps of preparation before operation, sterilization, operation implementation, hemostasis sterilization and the like, is complex in operation, time-consuming and labor-consuming, and can easily cause high stress and surgical wound infection of the animals, further increase the morbidity of the animals and even lead to death of the animals. In addition, a long recovery period is required after the operation, and the normal growth of animals is greatly affected. Therefore, the simple and low-cost castration method is of great significance.
In recent years, hormone immunocastration has great potential for use. Hormone immune castration is mainly targeted by genital hormone members in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis (target gene or target protein), and antibody "neutralization" is responsible for immune castration. The technical key of immune castration lies in the selection of immune targets, wherein gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH) are commonly used for immune castration, for example, by actively immunizing animals with exogenous GnRH, inducing the bodies of the animals to generate a large amount of anti-GnRH specific antibodies, neutralizing the GnRH in vivo and further reducing the GnRH level, leading to reduced synthesis of LH and FSH, causing imbalance of the reproductive endocrine system, reducing synthesis and secretion of the reproductive hormone and destruction of testicular development and spermatogenesis, and finally achieving the aim of immune castration. Active immunization by GnRH can avoid a plurality of shortages of surgical castration technology, and is a safe and friendly method which is most hopeful to replace surgical castration. However, monomeric GnRH vaccines have not shown significant efficacy in reducing testicular quality, serum testosterone, and other reproductive parameters, both in single and multiple injections. Therefore, in order to achieve the aim of immune castration of the developed vaccine, it is necessary to increase the expression efficiency of the vaccine in the body or to find a new immune castration target.
The KISS1 gene is also called as a KISS gene, is a neuropeptide positioned upstream of GnRH, and plays a decisive role in reproduction control switch by controlling secretion of GnRH. Proved by researches, the gene vaccine fused with the KISS1 and the GnRH can obviously reduce the reproductive performance of animals, but has slower hormone level effect, the testosterone level can be reduced to nearly half of the initial concentration after 6 weeks of immunization, the estradiol level is reduced by about 40 percent, and a higher immunization dosage is needed, and multiple times of boosting is needed, so that the immunogenicity is to be enhanced, and the operation complexity and the use convenience of a castration technology are enhanced.
In conclusion, the development of the composite gene vaccine which has good immunogenicity, quick immune effect and can effectively improve castration effect has important application value.

As a result, see fig. 7, from which it was found that the number of sperm in mice injected with the double-and triple-expressed gene vaccines was significantly reduced, and the sperm density of the triple-expressed gene vaccine was the lowest.
6.4 testis tissue analysis
After 6 weeks of immunization, the cervical dislocation of the mice is killed, epididymis of the mice is adopted, and testis HE staining and slicing are carried out to observe the testis tissue morphology.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, it was found from the graph that the production of germ cells, particularly sperm cells, in testes of mice injected with the double-expression and triple-expression gene vaccine was significantly reduced as compared with the control group (C), that the triple-expression group was significantly less than the double-expression group, and that germ cells at each stage in the seminiferous tubules were irregularly arranged. The result shows that the three-expression gene vaccine can lead to the reduction of the seminiferous capacity of the male mice after immunization, and the effect is superior to that of the double expression group.
