摘要： 目的 构建丙型肝炎病毒（HCV）核心蛋白（Core）真核表达载体，并研究其对人宫颈癌 HeLa细胞自噬功能的影响。方法 以 HCV复制子质粒 pJFH1为模板，PCR法扩增 HCV Core 基因片段，经纯化回收后与 PLVX-IRESZsGreen1载体用同源重组法相连，构建 PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core重组质粒，并经测序验证其序列的正确性。转染宫颈癌 HeLa细胞，并设 PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core重组质粒转染组、PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1空载体转染对照组以及未转染质粒空白对照组，通过免疫印迹法验证 HCV Core蛋白在 HeLa细胞中的表达，并用免疫荧光（IF）和免疫印迹检测自噬生物标记物微管相关蛋白 1轻链 3（LC3）的表达水平。结果 获得 PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core重组质粒，测序结果表明构建的重组质粒序列完全正确，HCV Core重组蛋白可在 HeLa细胞中有效表达；免疫荧光和免疫印迹结果表明，HCV Core过表达细胞 LC3焦点和 LC3 Ⅱ蛋白表达水平明显增多，PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core重组质粒转染组的细胞 LC3 Ⅱ水平（1.069±0.049）高于 PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1空载体转染对照组（0.776±0.047），差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。结论 成功构建了 PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core 重组质粒，HCV Core 蛋白过表达可诱导 HeLa 细胞自噬。

Abstract: Objective To construct eukaryotic expression vector of hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein, and investigate the effect of HCV Core protein on the autophagy of human cervical cancer HeLa cells. Methods The fragment of core was obtained by PCR from HCV replicon plasmid pJFH1. After purification and recovery, the DNA fragment was connected with the PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1 vector using the homologous recombination method. DNA sequencing was used to verify the correctness of the sequence. PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-core was transfected into HeLa cells. Cells were divided into PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-core recombinant plasmid transfection group, PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1 empty carrier transfection control group and control group without transfection plasmid blank. Western blot assay and immunofluorescence(IF) were applied to detect the expression of HCV Core protein and the autophagy-related biomarker (microtubuleassociated protein 1 light chain3, LC3) in HeLa cells. Results PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-core recombinant plasmid wasobtained. The sequencing results showed that the sequence of recombinant plasmid was completely corrected, and the HCV Core protein can be effectively expressed in HeLa cells. The results of Western blot assay and immunofluorescence also showed that LC3 Ⅱ protein level and LC3 foci were increased significantly in cells with HCV Core protein. The level of LC3 II was significantly higher in PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1-Core recombinant plasmid transfection group (1.069±0.049) than that in PLVX-IRES-ZsGreen1 empty vector transfection control group (0.776 ± 0.047, P<0.05). Conclusion The eukaryotic expression vector of HCV Core is successfully constructed, and the HCV Core protein can induce autophagy in HeLa cells.
