摘要:  
根据GenBank上鸡β-actin、TNF-α的基因序列设计引物,应用逆转录-聚合酶链式反应(RT-PCR)技术克隆获得了β-actin和TNF-α基因,采用β-actin为内参的半定量方法检测TNF-α mRNA在鸡柔嫩艾美球虫免疫前后不同时间的表达情况,以探讨TNF-α基因的表达动态与柔嫩艾美球虫免疫的关系。结果显示,TNF-α基因在两次免疫期间的表达量整体上呈现双峰模式,首免后第9d达到一个高峰,二免后第7d达到另一个高峰。结果表明,TNF-α在抗球虫感染中有一定的作用。

Abstract: According to chicken β-actin and TNF-α gene sequences in GenBank, primers were designed, and the gene sequences were amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) from the cecal tonsil of chicken experimentally immunized with Eimeria tenella. The expression le-vel of TNF-α mRNA at different time after immunization was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR with β-actin gene as internal reference to study the relationship between E.tenella immunization and the kinetic expression of TNF-α gene in chicken cecal tonsil. The results showed that the level of expression of TNF-α gene reached 1st peak on day 9 post-1st-immunization, and reached 2nd peak on day 7 post-booster-immunization. It was concluded that TNF-α had some effect against E.tenella infection.
