- the non-human animal deficient in adibonectin function of the present invention is specifically a non-human animal deficient in adiponectin gene function.
- adiponectin has already been cloned [Maeda, K et al, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 221, 286-296 (1996), Nakano, Y. et al, J. Biochem. ) 120, 802-812 (1996)], available by known means.
- SEQ ID NOs: 1 and 2 show the nucleotide sequence and amino acid sequence of mouse adiponectin.
- the expression “function of a gene is deficient” means that adiponectin, which is a gene product of the gene, is not normally produced, and that adiponectin itself expresses its function by not being produced or partially deficient. It involves the production of adiponectin-like proteins that cannot be achieved.
- these genes are cloned, the function of the gene is deleted in vitro, and the deficient gene is returned to the animal to replace the adiponectin gene on the chromosome.
- a method is used in which homologous recombination is caused between the cells, the adiponectin gene on the chromosome is broken, and the function of the gene in the animal itself or its progeny is lost.
- Examples of a method for deficient gene function include a method for artificially mutating a gene to destroy the gene. And inserting or replacing other genes.
- the non-human animal as referred to in the present invention only needs to be one in which the function of the adiponectin gene is deficient. Any injured animals are included.
- the animals used are not particularly limited, and include all animals except humans, and are preferably mammals such as guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, rats, magpies, and bush, and are easy to treat as disease models. Rodents with a relatively short biological cycle, particularly mice, are preferred.
- Examples of a method for introducing a gene into an animal and expressing the gene in an individual or progeny of the animal include known methods conventionally used in the preparation of transgenic animals. Injection into the pronucleus embryo of the fertilized egg, infection of the early stage embryo with the recombinant retrovirus, injection of homologous recombination embryonic stem cells (ES cells) into the blastocyst or 8-cell stage embryo
- ES cells homologous recombination embryonic stem cells
- a method of preparing a F1 heterozygous mutant animal, and furthermore, an F2 homozygous or hemizygous mutant animal is obtained by transplanting a host embryo obtained by the method, etc.
- the method of gene transfer using ES cells is suitable for disrupting (knock-out) the gene by homologous recombination, and separates the step of introducing the gene into ES cells and the step of producing chimeric animals. This is preferable because it has the advantage of being able to be performed.
- the method of gene transfer using ES cells may be performed according to a known method.
- Deletion of the mouse adiponectin gene function can be achieved by deleting at least a part of the promoter region and the Z or code region, or inserting another gene into any site.
- the site where the deletion or other gene is inserted may be an intron.
- a DNA (targeting vector) having a DM sequence constructed so as to disrupt the gene is prepared.
- the gene to be inserted it is preferable to use a gene that functions as a primary gene for detecting the adiponectin gene deficiency.
- a marker gene used for positive selection for example, neomycin
- neo Resistance gene strength
- tk thymidine kinase
- DT-A diphtheria toxin A fragment
- the neomycin resistance gene enables selection of the target gene by using the neomycin analog G418.
- Preferable gene targeting is a method using a substitution type vector in which a positive selection marker is substituted on the target gene as a targeting vector, and a method using a vector containing a selection marker upstream of the target gene.
- a method using an insertion vector that suppresses the expression of the gene by inserting a corresponding heterologous region can be used.
- insertion of these genes can be performed by a conventional DNA recombination technique in the mouth.
- homologous recombination is performed between the thus obtained targeting vector and the adiponectin gene in ES cells.
- Introduction of the DNA for homologous recombination into ES cells can be carried out, for example, by conventional electroporation.
- recombination occurs between the DNA of the adiponectin gene in the ES cell and the corresponding region of the DNA for homologous recombination, and the marker gene inserted in the DNA for homologous recombination is restored to the ES cell. Inserted into the adiponectin gene of the genome.
- ES cells lack the function of the adiponectin gene and at the same time contain a marker gene.
- ES cells lacking the function of the CBP gene can be selected based on the selection function of the marker gene.
- the ES cells are injected into a host embryo such as a mouse blastocyst, and the obtained embryo is transplanted into the uterine horn of a pseudopregnant mouse to obtain a chimeric mouse.
- a F1 heterozygous offspring is obtained.
- the germ cell of the chimeric mouse is derived from a homologous recombinant, that is, an ES cell in which the adiponectin gene is disrupted, a mouse deficient in the function of the adiponectin gene can be obtained.
- the obtained hetero-deficient animals are bred with each other, and homozygous Deficient animals can be obtained.
- adiponectin gene is deficient or whether the gene is hetero or homo deficient can be confirmed by pouring DNA from the tail after weaning and then performing Southern plot or PCR.
- the animal breeding method of the present invention does not require a special method, and can be bred by the same method as a normal animal.
- the thus-produced animal deficient in adiponectin function particularly an adiponectin hetero-deficient animal has the following properties.
- Adiponectin-deficient animals show remarkable insulin resistance as compared to the wild type, despite an increase in blood glucose due to glucose load. In addition, they have impaired glucose tolerance because their glucose level increases their blood glucose levels both on an empty stomach and after fasting.
- Adiponectin-deficient animals have no difference in blood free fatty acids and total cholesterol from the wild type, but have a high neutral fat content in the homodeficient type.
- Adiponectin-deficient animals have extremely high intimal hyperplasia due to cuff damage to the arteries, and exhibit clear arteriosclerotic symptoms.
- the adiponectin-deficient animal of the present invention is useful as a model animal for obesity and / or diabetes, particularly a model animal for obesity and Z or type 2 diabetes. It is also useful as a model animal for arteriosclerosis.
- a test drug is administered to an adiponectin deficient animal, Observe the properties or observe the change in the expression level of the gene specific to the adiponectin deficient animal.
- the change in the gene expression level is conveniently performed by analysis using a DNA chip or the like.
- the 129 / Sv mouse genomic library was screened using the adiponectin cDNA as a probe, and a plurality of clones containing the adiponectin gene were cloned.
- a targeting vector was constructed by substituting the neomycin resistance gene from immediately below the translation start point to the translation end point, and this targeting vector was transfected into ES cells. Screening was performed by Southern blotting, and homologous recombinants of 5 clones were confirmed. Chimeric mice were prepared by microinjection and Fl and F2 were prepared by crossing with BI / 6.
- mice lacking the adiponectin gene were created by homologous recombination as shown in FIG. Since the mouse adiponectin gene was deleted, a targeting vector was prepared in which exons 2 and 3 encoding adiponectin were replaced with a neo resistance gene. Five independent homologous recombination clones were identified by Southern blot ( Figure 2). Chimeric mice were prepared from ES cells having 129 / Sv in the background and crossed with BI / 6 to create hetero-deficient mice. The genotype was confirmed by Southern blot (Fig. 3).
- Blood free fatty acids, neutral fats, and total cholesterol were measured using NEFAC-test, TGL-type, and Tchol E-type (manufactured by Kocosha) after a 16-hour fast.
- a 2.0-tube polyethylene tube (PE-50) was placed in the femoral artery. Two weeks later, the blood vessel was pressure-fixed with formalin, and then removed together with a contralateral uncuffed control blood vessel. Serial annular sections were prepared with a thickness of 10 bands from the extracted blood vessels, and 10 of these sections were stained with HE, and the inner diameter of the blood vessel, the thickness of the intima, the thickness of the media, and the ratio of the intima to media were measured. .
