Cpn0308真核表达载体的构建及对小鼠免疫功能的影响Cpn0308真核表达载体的构建及对小鼠免疫功能的影响

摘要：本研究的目的是构建一个具有高效表达Cpn0308的真核表达载体并研究其对小鼠免疫功能的影响。采用PCR技术克隆Cpn0308基因，构建了真核表达载体pCMV-Cpn0308，并通过Westernblot和荧光显微镜等方法验证其高效表达和定位。进一步研究发现，Cpn0308的高效表达能够显著增强小鼠的体内和体外免疫反应，包括增强小鼠淋巴细胞的增殖和细胞因子的分泌，提高小鼠体内的抗体水平和细胞毒性T淋巴细胞的活性。此外，实验结果还发现，Cpn0308高效表达载体对小鼠的生长发育和器官功能没有显著影响。综上所述，Cpn0308真核表达载体的构建及其对小鼠免疫功能的增强，为Cpn0308的进一步解析和其作为疫苗候选目标的应用提供了实验依据。
