摘要: Primary sheep testicular Sertoli cells (STSCs) are ideal for investigating the molecular and pathogenic processes of capripoxvirus. However, the high cost of isolation and culture of primary STSCs, time-consuming operation, and short lifespan greatly limit their real-world application. In our study, the primary STSCs were isolated and immortalized by transfection of a lentiviral recombinant plasmid containing simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen. Androgen-binding protein (ABP) and vimentin (VIM) protein expression, SV40 large T antigen activity, proliferation assays, and apoptosis analysis results showed that immortalized large T antigen STSCs (TSTSCs) still had the same physiological characteristics and biological functions as primary STSCs. Moreover, immortalized TSTSCs had strong anti-apoptosis ability, extended lifespan, and enhanced proliferative activity compared to primary STSCs, which had not transformed in vitro and showed any signs of malignancy phenotype in nude mice. Besides, immortalized TSTSCs were susceptible to goatpox virus (GTPV), lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), and Orf virus (ORFV). In conclusion, immortalized TSTSCs are useful in vitro models to study GTPV, LSDV, and ORFV in a wide range of ways, suggesting that it can be safely used in virus isolation, vaccine and drug screening studies in future.
