  • Publication number: 20220317113
    Abstract: The invention discloses a method for screening a therapeutic target of acute radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome and use of TIGAR target in the preparation of a medicine for treating radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome. The CreERT-loxP transgenic mouse model is used, in which quiescent intestinal crypt stem cells are effectively promoted to proliferate after exposure to high-dose ionizing radiation, to screen a therapeutic target that still has a therapeutic effect for radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome 18-24 h after ionizing radiation. Gene splicing occurs in particular cells in the CreERT-loxP transgenic mice only after the injection of tamoxifen, thereby regulating gene expression. The actual situation of initial exposure and then treatment after a nuclear accident is well simulated, so the invention is of great practical significance.

  • Patent number: 9863933
    Abstract: The invention discloses a method for determining the repair activity of NHEJ. In this method, HPRT gene is mutated by using a site-directed gene mutation technology, and plasmid transfection, and 6-TG treatment are performed. By means of the method of the invention, the NHEJ repair activity level of cells can be observed by measuring the cell viability. The method can be used for screening the effects of different drugs and different genes on the NHEJ repair activity.
