Objective: To construct and identify multi-gene recombinant expression vector pcDNA3-HBsAg-p30-ROP2.
Method: Primers were designed according to the gene sequences of restriction enzyme cutting site of recombinant pcDNA3-p30-ROP2 and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The target fragment of HBsAg was amplified and cloned to expression vector pcDNA3-p30-ROP2 by restriction enzyme digestion and ligation. The recombinant expression vector pcDNA3-HBsAg-p30-ROP2 was identified by PCR detection, followed by enzyme restriction and sequencing.
Results: The target fragment of HBsAg was successfully amplified, and the multi-gene eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3-HBsAg-p30-ROP2 was established. PCR detection and restriction enzyme digestion showed that the length of the target fragment was consistent with the theoretical value. The recombinant expression vector contained the complete sequences of p30-ROP2 compound gene and HBsAg.
Conclusion: Multi-gene recombinant expression vector pcDNA3-HBsAg-p30-ROP2 was successfully established. The constructed expression vector could be used to develop multi-gene nucleic acid vaccines.

Aflatoxins (AFs), notorious mycotoxins that pose significant risks to human and animal health, make biodegradation extremely crucial as they offer a promising approach to managing and reducing their harmful impacts. In this study, we identified a manganese peroxidase from (Mnp) through protein similarity analysis, which has the capability to degrade four AFs (AFB, AFB, AFG, and AFG) simultaneously. The gene encoding this enzyme was subject to codon optimization, followed by cold shock induction expression using the pColdII vector, leading to the soluble expression of manganese peroxidase (Mnp) in .

ErbB3 is markedly overexpressed in breast cancer cells and is associated with resistance and metastasis. Additionally, ErbB3 expression levels are positively correlated with low densities of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, a marker of poor prognosis. Consequently, ErbB3 is a promising therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy.

Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease resulting from a mutation in the huntingtin (HTT) gene and characterized by progressive motor dysfunction, cognitive decline, and psychiatric disturbances. Currently, no disease-modifying treatments are available. Recent research has developed therapeutic agents that may have the potential to directly target the disease pathology, such as gene silencing or clearing the mutant protein.

Background: Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease (sAD) is the most prevalent progressive neurodegenerative disease worldwide, without a cure. We propose to investigate therapies that contribute to the current state of this problem using a model of sAD in rats based on a single intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of streptozotocin (STZ). In this sense, thymulin (originally known as serum thymic factor, FTS), a thymic peptide, emerges as a potential therapeutic agent due to its proven anti-inflammatory effects.

Background: Emerging evidence support the notion that loss of splicing repression by TDP-43, an RNA binding protein that was first implicated in ALS-FTD, underlies their pathogenesis. Previously, we showed that delivery of an AAV9 vector at early postnatal day expressing a fusion protein, termed CTR comprised of the N-terminal region of TDP-43 and an unrelated splicing repressor termed RAVER1 complemented the loss of TDP-43 in mice lacking TDP-43 in spinal motor neurons (ChAT-IRES-Cre;tardbp mice). To translate this potential therapeutic strategy to the clinic, it will be important to demonstrate benefit of such AAV delivery of CTR to motor neurons in adult mice.
