RÉSUMÉ

Myostatin gene (MSTN) encodes a negative regulator for controlling skeletal muscle growth in animals. In this study, MSTN-/- homozygous mutants with "double muscle" phenotypic traits and stable inheritance were bred on the basis of MSTN gene editing rabbits, with the aim to establish a method for breeding homozygous progeny from primary MSTN biallelic mutant rabbits. MSTN-/- primary mutant rabbits were generated by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology. The primary mutant rabbits were mated with wild type rabbits to produce F1 rabbits, whereas the F2 generation homozygous rabbits were bred by half-sibling mating or backcrossing with F1 generation rabbits of the same mutant strain. Sequence analysis of PCR products and its T vector cloning were used to screen homozygous rabbits. The MSTN mutant rabbits with 14-19 week-old were weighed and the difference of gluteus maximus tissue sections and muscle fiber cross-sectional area were calculated and analyzed. Five primary rabbits with MSTN gene mutation were obtained, among which three were used for homozygous breeding. A total of 15 homozygous rabbits (5 types of mutants) were obtained (M2-a: 3; M2-b: 2; M3-a: 2; M7-a: 6; M7-b: 2). The body weight of MSTN-/- homozygous mutant rabbits aged 14-19 weeks were significantly higher than that of MSTN+/+ wild-type rabbits of the same age ((2 718±120) g vs. (1 969±53) g, P < 0.01, a 38.0% increase). The mean cross sections of gluteus maximus muscle fiber in homozygous mutant rabbits were not only significantly higher than that of wild type rabbits ((3 512.2±439.2) μm2 vs. (1 274.8±327.3) μm2, P < 0.01), but also significantly higher than that of MSTN+/- hemizygous rabbits ((3 512.2±439.2) μm2 vs. (2 610.4±604.4) μm2, P < 0.05). In summary, five homozygous mutants rabbits of MSTN-/- gene were successfully bred, which showed a clear lean phenotype. The results showed that the primary breeds were non-chimeric mutant rabbits, and the mutant traits could be inherited from the offspring. MSTN-/- homozygous mutant rabbits of F2 generation could be obtained from F1 hemizygous rabbits by inbreeding or backcrossing. The progenies of the primary biallelic mutant rabbits were separated into two single-allelic mutants, both of which showed a "double-muscle" phenotype. Thus, this study has made progress in breeding high-quality livestock breeds with gene editing technology.

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>Danshen, as a traditional Chinese medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, is widely applied in improving human erythrocyte deformability in clinics. But its direct effect on erythrocyte membranes is still unclear.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>In this essay, the confocal Raman technique was adopted to measure the changes in Raman spectra of human erythrocytes before and after the administration of Danshen injection.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The results showed slight changes in group conformations corresponding to erythrocyte membranes after the administration of danshen injection. Specifically, 1064, 1126 cm(-1) spectral lines attributed to phospholipid molecule acyl C-C skeleton anti-conformation were obviously weakened, whereas 1091 cm(-1) spectral line attributed to phospholipid molecule acyl C-C skeleton guache conformation notably intensified. Besides, the longitudinal order-parameter in chains (Strans) of phospholipids was reduced significantly.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Danshen injection can transfer erythrocyte membrane phospholipid molecule acyl C-C skeleton anti-conformation to guache conformation, indicating the increase in liquidity of erythrocyte membrane phospholipids and erythrocytes. Danshen injection's effect in improving erythrocyte membrane structure and function may be the intrinsic mechanism for its pharmacological effect as a traditional Chinese medicine.</p>
