摘要: 斑马鱼的个体小、高产和体外受精等特点使其已经迅速成为研究脊椎动物器官发育和人类疾病的模式生物之一。我们建立了一个转基因斑马鱼动物模型来研究胰岛β-细胞的发育。首先,构建了斑马鱼胰岛素(Insulin,INS)启动子与绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)组成的表达载体,命名为INS:GFP。其次,将质粒在斑马鱼1-细胞期注射到细胞质内。最后我们成功获得了生殖系稳定遗传胰岛素转基因斑马鱼,在成鱼和幼鱼期均可以通过GFP标记β-细胞。通过方便的荧光筛选,我们观察到胰岛在受精后18h开始形成,1-5d后由初始的脊索中线两侧向右迁移。从我们构建的胰岛素转基因斑马鱼,可以直观判断胰岛的发育情况,为研究胰岛的发育、损伤和再生提供了一个简便和直观的新型工具。Abstract: W ith many advantageous features such as small size, high production and fertilization in vitro, zebrafish has become a kind of themodel creature for the investigation of vertebrate development and human diseases. Sowe set up a transgenic zebrafish model to investigate the β-cell development1 Firstly, we obtained an INS: GFP construction that contains the zebrafish insulin (INS) promoter and green fluorescent protein (GFP).Secondly, we injected the construction into the cytoplasm of one-cell-stage embryos. F inally, we gained germline INS transgenic zebrafish that d isplayed highly specific β-cell expression ofGFP in both larvae and adult1 By following GFP expression, pancreas formation was detected at the 18h post-fertilization in the earliest time points between the second bilateral som ites, a group of GFP-positive cells located from ventral to the notochord. From day 1 to 5 post-fertilization,the number of insu lin/GFP expressing cells migrated and formed a right organ. Thus, ourworks demonstrated that the transgenic line provided a conven ient and d irect expermi ental tool in analyzing endocrine pancreas development, injury and recovery.
