Abstract
Aim:
To detect whether CIITA-pI can drive reporter gene expression and its specific promoter activity in DCs.
Methods:
Luciferase reporter system was used to detect 112 bp CIITA-pI specific promoter activity in DCs.
Results:
CIITA-pI could drive expression of reporter gene in DCs but not in HEK 293 cells and its promoter activity increased with the maturation of DCs.
Conclusion:
Our work provides a basis for further study of targeting DC gene therapy using CIITA-pI as DC-specific promoter.
