摘要
人蛋白C(human Protein C,hPC)是一种维生素K依赖的丝氨酸蛋白酶原,
属血浆糖蛋白,相对分子量是62KDa。蛋白C系统是一种重要的抗凝机制之一,
该系统由蛋白C(PC)、凝血调节蛋白(TM)、蛋白S(PS)、蛋白C抑制物及新近
发现的内皮细胞蛋白C受体(EPCR)组成。活化蛋白C的主要功能是抗凝、抗炎和
促纤溶。近年来,活化蛋白C在感染性疾病,特别是在严重脓毒症、内毒素血症
和弥散性血管内凝血等严重感染性疾病中的治疗备受关注。
随着人血浆PC及重组人蛋白C(recombinant human Protein C,rhPC)在疾病
治疗应用范围的扩展,建立简便、快速、灵敏和特异的人PC检测方法显得尤为
重要。目前,国外的蛋白C制品(血浆浓缩剂及重组制剂)和诊断试剂价格较昂
贵,不适合临床的推广应用。国内蛋白C的研究处于起步阶段,因此对蛋白C制
品及诊断试剂的研究将有广阔的市场前景。
本研究包括:
1 物理化学方法纯化人血浆蛋白C:将3000ml新鲜冷冻血浆为起始材料,以
DEAE-Sephadex A 50为吸附介质,收集洗脱产物,再经DEAE-Sepharose FF及肝
素-Sepharose CL 6B层析,对收集产物进行APTT、SDS-PAGE及Western blotting
检测,获得纯度大于95%的人血浆蛋白C。
2 人蛋白C cDN_A在CHO-dhfr细胞中的表达:利用脂质体转染技术将含有人
蛋白C cDNA基因和二氢叶酸还原酶基因的载体转入CHO细胞中,经过MTX

Human protein C, a vitamin K-dependent serine protease, is a plasma glycoprotein with relative molecular mass(Mr) of 62x103. Activated protein C potently inhibits coagulation and inflammation by inactivating factors V and VIII and facilitates fibrinolysis in vivo. In recent years, activated protein C attracted more attention in the treatment of infectious diseases, especially in the treatment and prevention of pyaemia, endotoxin blood poisoning and disseminated intravascular coagulation in endotoxemia.
With the extensive application of human protein C products (protein C purified from human plasma and recombinant protein C) in the treatment of varied diseases, it is urgent to establish a simple, fast, sensitive and specific measure for protein C detection. At present, abroad protein C products (protein C purified from human plasma and recombinant protein C) and diagnostic kits are very expensive, which is impossible for extensive clinical application.
There are four parts in this experiment:
1 Purifying protein C by physical-chemical methods: The major steps are as follows: After collecting elution products from DEAE-Sephadex A-50 absorbed, DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow and Heparin-Sepharose CL 6B chromatography, protein C was confirmed by APTT, SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. The purity of protein C was estimated to be more than 95% by SDS-PAGE.
2 Expression of human protein C cDNA in CHO cells: By using lipofectamine-mediated gene transfer technique, recombinant expression vector containing human protein C cDNA gene and dhfr gene was transfected into CHO cells.
Six higher expression cells were obtained by MIX (6.4umol/L) selecting. Protein C was confirmed by APTT, SDS-PAGE and Western blotting.
3 Preparation and identification of monoclonal antibodies to human protein C: Five monoclonal antibodies designated as PC1 to PC5 were obtained from hybridoma cells cloned after the fusion of mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells of mice immunized with purified human protein C and the titer, subclass, specificity and affinity were detected.
4 Application of monoclonal antibodies to human protein C.
1) Method of human protein C detection through ELISA (Enzyme-linked immunoadsordent assay): The ELISA method was established through two monoclonal antibodies (McAb) identification with different antigenic sites of human protein C which enabled the determination of protein C in concentrations range of 3.12~ 200ng/mL in less than 4 hours with a single antigen-antibody reaction. Within-run and between-run coefficients of variation were less than 7%. The reference range of protein C in plasma of 102 normal samples was 4.02?.295ug/mL.
2) Immunoaffinity purification of protein C by monoclonal antibody to human protein C: Protein C was isolated from DEAE-Sephadex A-50 adsorbed fresh plasma by immunoaffinity chromatography on a column of Sepharose 4B coupled with monoclonal antibody to protein C. This immunopurification resulted in a 16700-fold purification of fully functional zymogen from plasma. The purity of human protein C was estimated to be more than 99% by SDS-PAGE.
The research established purification methods (physical-chemical method and affinity chromatography) for human protein C, which is hopeful for large scale protein C production; High expression of human protein C cDNA in CHO-dhfr" cells laid a foundation for the research of protein C; In addition, we developed Five hybridoma cell lines of monoclonal antibodies to human protein C and established ELISA to detect human plasma protein C.
