Ovine trophoblastin (oTP) is a natural interferon of the class-II interferon-alpha subfamily. Recombinant ovine trophoblastin (r.oTP), produced by genetic engineering, was purified by anion-exchange HPLC. The product exhibited a high degree of homogeneity (greater than 98%), and similar immunological cross reaction and antiviral activity to natural oTP. Antiluteolytic activity of r.oTP was established by intrauterine injection in two groups of cyclic recipient ewes. Control group A included 10 ewes which received sterile BSA in saline twice daily for 8 days (from day 10-12 of oestrous cycle). Experimental group B included 17 ewes which received 80 micrograms (4 ewes), 170 micrograms (8 ewes) or 340 micrograms (5 ewes) r.oTP daily for 8 days. Maintenance of functional corpora lutea for 1 month or more was observed in 4 out of 5 ewes which received high doses of r.oTP. These results indicate that oTP alone extends luteal secretory activity.
绵羊滋养层蛋白(oTP)是II类干扰素α亚家族的一种天然干扰素。通过基因工程生产的重组绵羊滋养层蛋白(r.oTP),经阴离子交换高效液相色谱法纯化。该产品显示出高度的均一性(大于98%),并且与天然oTP具有相似的免疫交叉反应和抗病毒活性。通过对两组发情期受体母羊进行子宫内注射,确定了r.oTP的抗黄体溶解活性。对照组A包括10只母羊,每天两次在盐水中接受无菌牛血清白蛋白,共8天(发情周期的第10 - 12天)。实验组B包括17只母羊,每天分别接受80微克(4只母羊)、170微克(8只母羊)或340微克(5只母羊)的r.oTP,共8天。在接受高剂量r.oTP的5只母羊中,有4只观察到功能性黄体维持1个月或更长时间。这些结果表明,单独使用oTP可延长黄体分泌活性。
