To construct a eukaryotic expression plasmid containing human triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1) gene. The entire gene coding region of human TREM-1 was amplified from total RNA of human peripheral blood by means of RT-PCR. The fragment of TREM-1 was cloned to vector pUCm-T. After digestion by restriction endonuclease BamH I and Pst I, the fragment was subcloned into the eukaryotic expressing vector pEGFP-C3. This recombinant vector was transfected into 293 cells using liposome. The expression level of TREM-1 was determined by fluorescence microscope and Western blot assay. The recombinant TREM-1 vector was transfected into THP-1 cells. After stimulation with 100 ng/ml LPS for 24 h, the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were measured using RT-PCR. The expression vector was constructed, and the result of the DNA sequencing showed that the constructed plasmid containing the TREM-1 gene. Fluorescence microscope and Western blot analysis showed that TREM-1 protein was expressed in 293 cells successfully. After transfection into THP-1 cells, recombinant TREM-1 could upregulate the mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β. Eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFP-TREM-1 is successfully constructed and showed biological activity.

D005822 Genetic Vectors DNA molecules capable of autonomous replication within a host cell and into which other DNA sequences can be inserted and thus amplified. Many are derived from PLASMIDS; BACTERIOPHAGES; or VIRUSES. They are used for transporting foreign genes into recipient cells. Genetic vectors possess a functional replicator site and contain GENETIC MARKERS to facilitate their selective recognition.

D000073871 Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells-1 An approximately 230 amino acid membrane glycoprotein characterized by an IMMUNOGLOBULIN V-SET DOMAIN in its N-terminal half. It is expressed by MONOCYTES and NEUTROPHILS in response to INFLAMMATION related to bacterial and fungal infections. It triggers the release of pro-inflammatory CHEMOKINES; CYTOKINES, and expression of cell activation markers and is a critical regulator of SEPTIC SHOCK.
