The role of SPINK1 mutations in modifying the expression of PRSS1 mutations is unclear but appears to be of clinical importance. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Using an in-vitro system to observe the biological effect of expression of mutated trypsinogen, we observed that R122H trypsinogen leads to cell death by enhanced intracellular trypsin activity [13]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Therefore, the development of mice expressing higher levels of mutated trypsinogen may offer the opportunity to replicate the human disease. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
To detect the R122H trypsinogen at the protein level, zymogen granules were separated by isoelectric focussing. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The R122H mutation is the most common PRSS1 mutation observed, and patients with the R122H mutation present earlier. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
TheR122H mutation is the most common PRSS1 mutation observed, and patients with the R122H mutation present earlier. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
To date such a construct was not available and this encouraged us to generate a transgenic mouse expressing R122H human cationic trypsinogen. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
This finding indicates that the expression of the R122H cationic trypsinogen gene could slightly aggravate the disease under these conditions. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In a recent study we showed a higher rate of apoptosis after expression of R122H trypsinogen in the cell line AR4-2J [13]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We speculate that higher amounts of R122H cationic trypsinogen probably provoke a spontaneous phenotype in mouse. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Characterisation of a transgenic mouse expressing R122H human cationic trypsinogen
Background | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Analogical, our paper will probably open the discussion on the effect of mutated trypsinogen in pancreatic acinar cells since there are to our knowledge several other groups also developing transgenic animals which express mutated trypsinogen.
| |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The R122H mutation of the cationic trypsinogen was found in patients with hereditary pancreatitis. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In summary, we generated transgenic mice expressing low amounts of R122H mutated human cationic trypsinogen. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Future attempts to create such a model should focus on a vector construction that may ensure a higher expression rate of the cationic trypsinogen in the pancreata of mice.
| |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Trypsin 1 is also expressed in S females until 5 days post eclosion, but not at the high levels exhibited by Trypsin 4 [87]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
AS 113 and AS 408, two unknown gene products; AS 13, a peritrophin-like protein; AS 18, Trypsin 1; and AS 99, Chymotrypsin 2, are significantly less abundantly expressed in the mosquito abdomen at 30 h PBM than in S females and not affected further by ookinete invasion. qRT-PCR (Figure 3E, see below) verifies this expression pattern for Chymotrypsin 2. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The zymogens trypsinogen IV and pro-p23 were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to apparent homogeneity. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
