Methods ：Transgenic mice were produced by microinjection to construct gene for human HT, delay acceleration factor （DAF） and/or CD59 into the male pronucleus of zygote. PCR and Southern blot were used to screen the positive trarisgenic mice. Flow cytometry （FCM） was used to detect the expression of HT, ct-Gal and DAF or CD59 on the PBMCs of transgenic mice. The survival time and function of the heart of transgenic mice were determined by a modified Langendorff cardiac perfusion apparatus： The change of proteinosis on IgM,IgG, C3c and C9 from different cardiac vascular iendothelial cells of transgenic mice were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results：HT, DAF or CD59 were highly expressed on the positive transgenic mice by FCM. The deposition of IgM,IgG,C3c or C9 in the cardiac vascular endothelial cells of the positive transgenic mice were de- creased. The survival time and function of the heart of the co-transgenic mice with AB serum perfusion were significantly longer and higher than that of the single HT positive transgenic mice（P 〈0.05）. Conclusion ：The mice co-expressing HT/DAF or HT/CD59 could resist the HAR,which was better than those expressing HT alone. It is feasible to use HT and CRPs co-transgenic methods to resist the HAR and DXR.展开更多

Methods Human α-galactosidase gene and α1,2-fucosyltransferase gene were transferred into cul-tured porcine vascular endothelial cells PEDSV.15 and human α-galactosidase transgenic mice were produced. The Galα1,3Gal on the cell surface and susceptibility of cells to human antibody-mediated lysis were analyzed. Results Human α-galactosidase gene alone reduced 78% of Galα1,3Gal on PEDSV.15 cell surface while human α-galactosidase combined with α1,2-fucosyltransferase genes removed Galα1,3Gal completely. Decrease of Galα1,3Gal could reduce susceptibility of cells to human antibody-mediated lysis, especially during co-expression of α-galactosidase gene and α1,2-fucosyltransferase gene. RT-PCR indicated positive human α-galactosidase gene expression in all organs of positive human α-galacto-sidase transgenic F1 mice including heart, liver, kidney, lung, and spleen, the amount of Galα1,3Gal antigens on which was reduced largely. 58% of spleen cells from F1 mice were destroyed by comp-lement-mediated lysis compared with 24% of those from normal mice. Conclusions Human α-galactosidase gene and α1,2-fucosyltransferase gene effectively reduce the expression of Galα1,3Gal antigens on endothelial cell surface and confers resistance to human serum-mediated cytolysis. The expression of human α-galactosidase in mice can also eliminate the Galα1,3Gal antigens in most tissues and decrease the susceptibility of spleen cells to human serum-mediated cytolysis.展开更多
