عنوان انگلیسی The Effect of TAX-1 Gene of Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type -1 on the Expression of CCR5 in K562 Cell Line
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله Background: Tax-1 protein of Human T-cell Leukemia Virus type 1(HTLV-1) serves as a key transcriptional regulatory gene product and has a crucial role in transactivating genes of infected cells by employing their transcriptional factors. This modulation includes induction of genes which encode CC-chemokines and their receptors. In this study, a recombinant vector containing Tax-1 gene was made and tested for its ability to induce CCR5 (CC chemokine receptor 5) expression in K562 cell line. Methods: In order to perform this research, two blood samples of HTLV-1 positive were obtained from Urmia blood transfusion center. After DNA extraction, a complete sequence of Tax-1 gene was amplified by specific primers. Recombinant vectors carrying Tax-1 gene were synthesized and transformed into Escherichia coli (E. coli). After bacteria transformation, bacteria containing recombinant plasmid were selected and purified. Then, the recombinant shuttle vectors, pCDNA3.1-TAX, were transfected into the cell culture (K562 cell line). Expression of CCR5 was measured after 72 hr by Syber Green Real-Time PCR method compared to control cell culture. Normalization was done with GAPDH as a standard gene. Results: Cloning of Tax-1 gene in the vector, pCDNA3.1 was confirmed by colony PCR, restriction digestion, and sequencing methods. Expression of Tax-1 and CCR5 genes were confirmed by real time PCR and also, expression of CCR5 gene showed an 8-fold increase in comparison to mock-treated controls (p< 0.05). Conclusion: Our data suggested that recombinant Tax-1 may have the enhancing effect on CCR5 expression rate at mRNA levels in K562 cell line. Further studies are necessary to evaluate the effect of pCDNA3.1-TAX on cell surface CCR5 expression.
