Objective: To obtain recombinant human CCL21 with biological activity from eukaryotic expression system for further use in cancer gene therapy. Methods: A fragment of human CCL21 gene was obtained from pSK-hCCL21 plasmid digested by Xho I and BamH I, inserted into the responding sites of eukaryotic expression vector pVAX1, and then transfected into COS-7 cells by electroporation method. The expression of hCCL21 protein was detected by western blotting analysis. The in vitro chemotaxis assay was used to test the chemotactic function of the expression product to lymphocytes. Results: Human CCL21 protein was expressed by transfected COS-7 cells with recombinant plasmid containing hCCL21 gene, and was verified by western blotting. The in vitro chemotaxis assay demonstrated that human CCL21 protein had a potent chemotactic function to lymphocytes. Conclusion: Human CCL21 was successfully and transiently expressed in eukaryotic cells, which lays some foundation for the study of CCL21 gene therapy in murine tumor models.
