摘 要:Aim:To express and purify lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2),and to establish a screening model for Lp-PLA2inhibitors using the expressed Lp-PLA2,Methods:We cloned the full-length cDNA of Lp-PLA2 from differentiatedTHP-I cells,and subcloned the cDNA into the baculovirus transfer *** addition,we introduced an N-terminal Kozak sequence for high-level translation initiation and a C-terminal sequence of 6 histidine residues forpurification,The fusion enzyme was expressed in Sf9 insect cells and purified byNi2+affinity *** Lp-PLA2activity was measured us-ing[3H]PAF as a substrate,and we examined the enzyme activity of recombinantLp-PLA2pretreated with the known Lp-PLA2inhibitor ***:Wesuccessfully cloned the full-length Lp-PLA2gene from differentiated THP-1 *** fusion enzyme was expressed in Sf9 insect cells at a high level and purifiedefficiently through a 2-step *** recombinant Lp-PLA2activity wasmeasured using[3H]PAF as a substrate,and proved to be enzymatically ***-PLA2inhibitor SB435495 produced a good inhibition curve for inhibition ofrecombinant Lp-PLA2with an IC50of 57±1μmol/***:We expressed andpurified Lp-PLA2at a high level in insect cell-baculovirus expression *** ratio was much greater than that obtained from human plasma and we estab-lished a screening model for Lp-PLA2inhibitors using the expressed Lp-PLA2.
