To construct a prokaryotic expression system for interleukin-37 (IL-37) and prepare its polyclonal antibody.
The gene encoding mature interleukin-37 (IL-37m) was amplified by PCR and subcloned into prokaryotic expression vector pET28a. Then the recombinant plasmid pET28a/IL-37m was transformed into E.coli Rosetta and expressed under IPTG induction. The recombinant IL-37m was purified through Ni²⁺;-NT agarose gel column and the purified recombinant IL-37m was used as immunogen to immunize the BALB/c mouse. The titer and specificity of the mouse anti-IL-37 antibody were analyzed by ELISA, Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining, respectively.
The recombinant IL-37 was successfully expressed and purified, and the mouse anit-IL-37 antibody was successfully prepared. ELISA showed that the titer of the antiserum was 1:128 000. Western blot analysis revealed that the antibody reacted with IL-37 specifically. Immunohistochemical staining detection manifested the antibody could recognize the native IL-37.
The mouse anti-IL-37 antibody with high titer and specificity was successfully prepared.
构建白细胞介素-37（IL-37）的原核表达系统并制备其多克隆抗体。
通过PCR扩增编码成熟白细胞介素-37（IL-37m）的基因，并将其亚克隆到原核表达载体pET28a中。然后将重组质粒pET28a/IL-37m转化到大肠杆菌Rosetta中，在IPTG诱导下表达。重组IL-37m通过Ni²⁺-NT琼脂糖凝胶柱纯化，纯化后的重组IL-37m用作免疫原免疫BALB/c小鼠。分别通过ELISA、Western印迹和免疫组织化学染色分析小鼠抗IL-37抗体的效价和特异性。
重组IL-37成功表达并纯化，成功制备了小鼠抗IL-37抗体。ELISA显示抗血清效价为1:128 000。Western印迹分析表明该抗体与IL-37特异性反应。免疫组织化学染色检测表明该抗体能够识别天然IL-37。
成功制备了效价高且特异性强的小鼠抗IL-37抗体。
