Abstract

Objective: To investigate the transfection and expression of VEGF121 in mammalian cells. Methods: pcDNA3.1-VEGF121 plasmid were transfected into CHO cells by electroporation and clones were screened by G418. The transcription and expression of VEGF121 in CHO cells were tested by RT-PCR, ELISA and Western-blot. The biologic activities of VEGF121 secreted by CHO cells were investigated by Mile′s assay and endothelial cells MTT assay. Results: We Obtained anti-G418 CHO cells mono-clones. RT-PCR, ELISA and Western-blot proved that there was transcription and expression of VEGF121 in anti-G418 CHO cells. The expressed VEGF121 could increase the vessel permeability and promote the proliferance of endothelial cells. Conclusions: pcDNA3.1-VEGF121 plasmid can express active VEGF121 well in mammalian cells.
