[Construction of eukaryotic expression vector of murine SLC gene and characterization of its chemotactic function]

To construct the eukaryotic expression vector of murine SLC gene and study the chemotactic function of murine SLC in-vitro and in-vivo.

Murine SLC gene was cloned by RT-PCR from the thymus tissue of a C57BL/6 mouse. Eukaryotic expression vector of SLC gene-pcDNA3.1 mSLC was constructed and transfected into B16F10 cells by gene gun. Culture supernatant was collected 48 hours after the transfection and chemotactic function of expression product to lymphocytes was detected by a chemotaxis chamber. SLC expression was detected by RT-PCR. Lymphocytic infiltration was observed in SLC gene transfected murine abdominal skin.

The gene cloned from the C57BL/6 mouse thymus tissue was SLC gene Scya21b. Transfected cells expressed SLC mRNA, and culture supernatant of those cells had a potent chemotactic function to lymphocytes. Histological examination of transfected skin showed obvious lymphocytic infiltration.

The SLC gene was cloned from the mouse thymus tissue and could be expressed in B16F10 cells. The expression product in-vitro and in-vivo had a remarkable chemotactic function to lymphocytes.
