Embodiment 1

[0034] Example 1 Construction of GABRG2 (F343L) transgenic zebrafish epilepsy model strain.

[0035] This Example 1 provides a protocol for transferring mutant GABRG2 (F343L) into fertilized zebrafish eggs by transgenic means and constructing a zebrafish model of epilepsy. Specifically include the following steps:

[0036] The first step, the construction of the transgene expression vector: use the Pubmed database to find the human GABRG2 gene sequence, synthesize the GABRG2 open reading frame sequence, mutate the 1027th base T into C (SEQ ID No: 1), and clone it into pME- MCS plasmid vector, the 5' cloning site is EcoRI, the 3' cloning site is XbaI, construct the intermediate vector middle entry clone:pME-GABRG2 1027T>C (SEQ ID No: 3). The sequence of the HuC neuron-specific promoter region was cloned, and the 5'entryclone: ​​p5E-HuC vector (SEQ ID No: 4) was constructed. Cloning 3'entry clone: ​​p3E-polyA vector (SEQ ID No: 5). The 5'entry clone, middle entry clone and 3...

Embodiment 2

[0046] Example 2 Application of GABRG2(F343L) transgenic zebrafish epilepsy model in antiepileptic drug screening.

[0047] Select clinically commonly used antiepileptic drugs, such as sodium valproate, carbamazepine, clonazepam, levetiracetam, etc., and add them to the zebrafish culture medium at concentrations of 50 μM, 100 μM, 50 μM, and 30 mM, respectively. 24 hours after the drug, the video analysis system was used to record for 30 minutes, and the parameters were collected every minute. Drugs that have a therapeutic effect on the epilepsy phenotype of transgenic zebrafish were screened by means of swimming behavior analysis. The result is as Figure 8 As shown, the above four drugs can significantly reduce the swimming distance of the transgenic zebrafish and reduce their excitability, suggesting that the above drugs all have an inhibitory effect on the seizures of GABRG2 (F343L) transgenic zebrafish.

Embodiment 3

[0048] Construction of embodiment 3 GABRG2 (R177G) transgenic zebrafish strain

[0049] According to the method described in Example 1, different mutant GABRG2 gene expression sequences were designed, and the mutation site was the 529th base C of the human GABRG2 gene was mutated to G (SEQ ID No: 12). Construction of GABRG2 mutant expression vector pDestTol2CG2; HuC:GABRG2 529C>G -polyA, transgenic zebrafish gene lines were obtained by microinjecting zebrafish embryos.

[0050] Phenotype analysis of GABRG2(R177G) transgenic zebrafish lines:

[0051]Select 5dpf zebrafish juveniles, use the zebrafish juvenile high-throughput behavior screening box (Danio Vision Chamber) and animal movement track tracking system (EthoVision XT 13), record wild zebrafish and mutant zebrafish lines under normal conditions Movement track, recording started at 4:00 p.m. for a total of 24 hours (14 hours of light and 10 hours of darkness). Behavioral parameters were recorded every 1 hour. The differ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a construction method of a mutant GABRG2 transgenosis induced epileptic zebra fish model. A zebra fish is used as a model animal; a mutant human GABRG2 gene is transferred intothe zebra fish to form a zebra fish line with epileptic phenotype; and the zebra fish line can be used for researching a relationship between GABRG2 mutation and epileptic pathogenesis and screeningantiepileptic drugs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of animal model preparation in biology and basic medical research, and specifically relates to a transgenic zebrafish epilepsy model constructed by using an epilepsy-related gene GABRG2 mutant, and a method for constructing the epilepsy zebrafish model and its effect on epilepsy. Applications in research work on pathogenesis, drug screening, and antiepileptic drug target identification. Background technique [0002] Epilepsy is a common chronic neurological disorder characterized by the presence of spontaneous, unprovoked recurrent seizures and is one of the most common disabling neurological disorders, affecting more than 50 million people worldwide, approximately 2.4 million per year Man is diagnosed with epilepsy. The increase in the frequency, duration and severity of epileptic seizures may increase the cognitive and emotional disorders of patients, lead to the occurrence of epileptic encephalopathy, an...
