Article Synopsis
  • Hyperuricemia (HUA) occurs when there's too much uric acid in the body, leading to conditions like gout and kidney damage.
  • Harpagoside (Harp), a compound from Scrophularia ningpoensis, has shown potential in reducing HUA and protecting kidneys from damage through various biochemical mechanisms.
  • Harp works by decreasing uric acid production, promoting its excretion, and reducing inflammation in the kidneys without causing safety issues like weight changes or organ damage.

Tools from bioinformatics websites such as NCBI, ExPaSy were used for the analysis. The malate dehydrogenase full-length gene from Taenia saginata asiatica was 1 212 bp in length, with a coding region of 30-1 028 bp and coding 332 amino acids. It was a complete and full-length gene compared with the homologues in GenBank.

Objective: To clone and express the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) gene of Taenia saginata asiatica and analyze the immunogenicity of the recombinant protein.

Methods: By screening the full length cDNA plasmid library, the coding region of LDH was amplified with PCR, and cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-30a (+), then expressed in E. coli BL21 with IPTG induction.
