摘要
目的观察并比较不同长度的人牙本质基质蛋白1(Dmp1)基因上游启动子片段在人牙髓干细胞(HDPSC)、成骨细胞(OC)和子宫颈癌上皮细胞株Hela中的启动子活性,为进一步研究Dmp1基因在矿化组织中的特异性转录调控特点和作用机制奠定基础。方法以获得正确序列的2 195 bp Dmp1基因上游启动子重组T载体为模板,通过 PCR方法获得不同长度的Dmp1基因上游启动子片段,将其构建至报告基因载体pGL3-Basic中,瞬时转染至HDP- SC、OC和Hela细胞,荧光素酶检测这些细胞中启动子活性并进行分析。结果成功地获得了6段不同长度的Dmp1 启动子目的片段。酶切鉴定表明不同长度启动子报告基因载体构建成功,不同片段的Dmp1启动子在不同细胞中活性不同,在HDPSC和OC中活性较强,而在Hela细胞中活性最低。在-505--193 bp区和-935--505 bp区可能分别存在HDPSC和OC较为特异的转录调控作用区域点,该区可能包含Dmp1表达的基础调控元件。结论成功克隆了不同长度的Dmp1上游启动子的序列,不同启动子片段在牙髓干细胞和成骨细胞等矿化性细胞中活性较强,并初步确定了Dmp1启动子在矿化性细胞中的基本启动子区域,而在非矿化性细胞Hela细胞中活性较低。
Objective To observe and compare the luciferase activities of different length segments of human dentin matrix protein 1 promoter in human dental pulp stem cells(HDPSC), osteoblasts(OC)and Hela cells. Methods The differentlength desired DNA segments were obtained from 2 195 bp Dmp1 promoter cloned by PCR method. The amplified promoter segments with different length were cloned into luciferase report gene vector pGL3-Basic, the correct orientation of those inserts was verified by cutting with two different restrict enzymes. The luciferase activity was observed after different pGL3-PDmp1 vectors were transfected transiently into those three different-type cells. Resuits 6 Dmp1 promoter segments with different-length were obtained successfully, and luciferase report gene vectors with different promoter segments were successfully constructed after identified by restriction enzymes cutting. They had different luciferase activities when they were transfected transiently into HDPSC, and the region of -505--193 bp and -935--505 bp could be regarded as the specific promoters of Dmp1 promoter for HDPSC and OC respectively, which could include the basic regulatory elements. Conclusion The correct clone of the upstream of human Dmp1 promoter segments with different length had been obtained, and they had strong luciferase activities in HDPSC and OC, but very low in Hela cell. These results will make an important basis for studying mineralized tissue-specific transcriptional regulation mechanisms of Dmp1.
