Abstract:Abstract: In order to facilitate the high throughput screening of autophagy related drugs on islet β cells, the RFP-GFP-LC3 plasmid was transfected into RIN-m5f cells by lentivirus transfection, and the infected cells were screened with G418. Laser confocal imaging verified that a cell line expressing RFP-GFP-LC3 was obtained. After different treatments of RIN-m5f, the results showed that the fluorescence point ratio of GFP/RFP in the starved group was lower than that in the normal group, and that expression of P62 protein and the level of S6K phosphorylation were decreased. After 10 μmol/L chloroquine was added to partially inhibit autophagy, the fluorescence point ratio of GFP/RFP increased. These results indicated that the rat islet β cell strain stably expressing RFP-GFP-LC3 was successfully constructed. The cells could exhibit the whole process of autophagy in a simple and accurate manner, which lays a foundation for the study of mechanisms of autophagy related to diabetic medicines.
