چکیده

secreted cytokines of th1 (t-helper)/th2 cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. th1 cells secrete predominantly ifn-γ and il-2 which regulate cell-mediated immunity against intracellular pathogens and tumors. in this study, expression of ifn-γ was studied using semiquantitative rt-pcr. in brief, lymphocytes of a healthy donor were stimulated with pha (1μg/106 cell/ml) in cell culture at different incubation times (0, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours) to express ifn-γ. total rna was extracted and cdna synthesized. a sequence (273 bp) between two oligonucleotide primers (chosen from two different exons of the ifn-γ gene sequences) was amplified using a heat-stable dna polymerase. in semi-quantitative rt-pcr, we used a serial dilution (1/2, 1/4, …) for cdna in order to determine the titer of cdna which gives visible band in agarose gel (2%) electrophoresis. results show the highest level of ifn-γ expression was achieved after 4 hours activation with pha and it was stable at least for 22 hours. then it fell to baseline level.

Expression pattern analysis of TomPRO2 and LaPA1 genes in tomato under in vitro salt stress by Semi-quantitative RT-PCR

The expression pattern of TomPRO2 and LaPA1 genes in two tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cultivars named as Isfahani and Shirazi under in vitro salt stress were investigated. Four to six weeks old in vitro grown seedlings were transferred on MS medium containing 0, 80 and 160 mM NaCl and untreated plants were used as control. RNA was extracted from root and leaf and then cDNA was synthesized. ...

Inducible Expression of Human Gamma Interferon

Background:The premature termination of high producer clones, which will be killed due to cell proliferation and proteins production antagonism, is one of the basic drawback in recombinant proteins technology. Furtheremore, it is supposed some toxic proteins like interferon which we intended to clone and express, inhibit host cells’ proliferation. So, it is necessary to tightly control IFN-γ pr...

Housekeeping gene expression during fetal brain development in the rat-validation by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.

Mammalian gene expression is usually carried out at the level of mRNA where the amount of mRNA of interest is measured under different conditions such as growth and development. It is therefore important to use a "housekeeping gene", that does not change in relative abundance during the experimental conditions, as a standard or internal control. However, recent data suggest that expression of s...
