In this study, we aim to investigate the effect of microgravity on the activity of ?1(I) collagen (COL1A1) gene promoter and the expression of osteoblast-related genes. COL1A1 promoter was digested by restriction enzymes resulting in three DNA fragments. The fragments were ligated with the enhanced green fluorescent protein report gene, and subcloned into expression vectors. ROS17/2.8 cells transfected by these vec-tors were screened by G418, and enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) positive colonies were isolated and cultured under clinostat condition. EGFP and Collagen type I expression level were detected by fluorescence intensity analysis and immunocytochemistry methods respectively. The results showed that the expression of EGFP and collagen type I was increased 24 h, 48 h after the cells were cultured under stimulated microgravity, illustrating that the activity of COL1A1 promoter might be increased. In conclusion, osteoblasts can compensatively increase the ex-pression of type I collagen by enhancing the activity of COL1A1 promoter under short-term simulated microgravity conditions.展开更多
【目的】探明COL1A1(Collagen type I alpha 1 chain,I型胶原蛋白α1链)和COL1A2(Collagen type I alpha 2 chain,I型胶原蛋白α2链)基因在梅花鹿不同组织中的表达谱,解析其对梅花鹿组织发育的影响,为影响梅花鹿重要经济性状的候选基因...【目的】探明COL1A1(Collagen type I alpha 1 chain,I型胶原蛋白α1链)和COL1A2(Collagen type I alpha 2 chain,I型胶原蛋白α2链)基因在梅花鹿不同组织中的表达谱,解析其对梅花鹿组织发育的影响,为影响梅花鹿重要经济性状的候选基因筛选提供依据。【方法】采用RT-qPCR方法检测COL1A1和COL1A2基因在雄性梅花鹿心脏、肝脏和脾脏等16个组织器官中的表达水平;结合NetPhos 3.1、Motif Search和ProtParam等系列软件预测分析COL1A1和COL1A2基因的生物信息及其在梅花鹿不同组织中的表达谱,并在此基础上构建COL1A1和COL1A2氨基酸序列的系统发育进化树。【结果】COL1A1和COL1A2基因CDS区分别编码1463和1364个氨基酸,理论PI分别为5.60和9.19,COL1A1和COL1A2均是一种具有信号肽和磷酸化位点的亲水性稳定蛋白质;二者蛋白二级及三级结构均以无规则卷曲构成;与其他动物相比,鹿COL1A1和COL1A2基因均与反刍动物山羊、绵羊和牛的同源性最高,其中,鹿COL1A1基因与山羊、牛、绵羊的同源性分别为99.5%、99.5%和99.2%,鹿COL1A2基因与牛、绵羊、山羊的同源性分别为99.1%、99.0%和98.9%,亲缘关系最近。RT-qPCR结果显示,COL1A1和COL1A2基因在梅花鹿不同组织中均有表达,其中COL1A1基因在心脏、背最长肌和腿肌中的表达较高,显著高于其他组织,COL1A2基因在心脏、肝脏、肾脏和瓣胃中的表达较高,均显著高于其他组织;此外,COL1A1在肌肉组织中的表达较高,COL1A2较低;二者在其余组织中的表达具有一高一低,相互协同的作用趋势。【结论】COL1A1和COL1A2可能通过相互协同共同维持组织结构及组织发育,相关结果为后续深入研究COL1A1和COL1A2影响梅花鹿生长发育奠定基础。展开更多

METHODS: All association studies on COL1A1 and high myopia reported up to June 10, 2014 in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Chinese Biomedical Database were retrieved. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were analyzed for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using fixed- and random - effects models according to between-study heterogeneity. Publication bias analyses were conducted by Eggers test. RESULTS: A total of four studies from reported papers were included in this analysis. The Meta-analyses for COL1A1 rs2075555, composed of 2304 high myopia patients and 2272 controls, failed to detect any significant association with high myopia. A total of 971 cases and 649 controls were tested for COL1A1 rs2269336. The association of COL1A1 rs2269336 with high myopia was observed in recessive model (CC vs CG+GG, P = 0.03) and in heterozygous model (CG vsGG, P = 0.04), but not in other models. CONCLUSION: This Meta-analysis shows that COL fill rs2269336 (CC vs CG +GG) affects individual susceptibility to high myopia, whereas there is no association detected between SNPs rs2075555 and high myopia. Given the limited sample size, further investigations including more ethnic groups are required to validate the association.展开更多
