Description

Screening method of laryngeal squamous carcinoma serum exosome marker and application of exosome source miR-941
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular diagnosis and molecular biology, and particularly relates to a screening method of laryngeal squamous carcinoma serum exosome markers and application of exosome source miR-941.
Background
Squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx (laryngeal squamous carcinoma) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the head and neck, and is highly prevalent in northern regions of china, including the provinces of shanxi. The incidence of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma gradually decreases over the last 40 years, while the 5-year survival rate does not increase and inversely decreases from 66% to 63%. Early symptoms of laryngeal squamous carcinoma are not significant, and approximately 60% of patients are not diagnosed until late stage (stage III or IV). Early diagnosis can increase the chance of successful treatment, while the anatomical location of the larynx is hidden, and early detection of laryngeal cancer is very difficult. Currently, the diagnosis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma mainly depends on endoscopy and pathological examination, which is an invasive detection mode, often causes different degrees of pain to patients, and usually needs multiple biopsies to confirm the diagnosis. Therefore, the development of a rapid, minimally invasive, highly sensitive diagnostic method and an effective and reliable biological marker is urgently needed in clinic.
Exosomes are membrane vesicles with a diameter of 30-150nm actively secreted by living cells, contain proteins, lipids and nucleic acids derived from maternal cells, and can be released into various body fluids including blood in the human body. Blood is a clinically common, minimally invasive and easily-obtained sample, and is convenient for dynamically observing various indexes. Exosomes and contents in blood can potentially reflect the structure and function of parent cells from which they are derived, thus mapping different pathophysiological states of the body without directly sampling the source cells, and have the potential to serve as a biological marker of tumors.
MicroRNA (miRNAs) is an endogenous non-coding RNA molecule, has the length of 19-22 nucleotides, is abnormally expressed in tumors, generally acts as a tumor suppressor or an oncogene, is closely related to the occurrence and development of the tumors, and is a potential tumor biological marker. Exosome miRNAs in circulating blood are used as tumor markers, and have the following advantages: the coating with the membrane on the outside can avoid the digestion of nuclease in blood, is more stable, is not easily influenced by extracellular environment, and has more reliable research result; the composition and abundance of the miRNAs in the exosome are different from those in the whole blood, and the miRNAs depend on the maternal cells and can better reflect the functional state of the maternal cells; some miRNAs in the exosome are enriched, which is beneficial to detecting low-abundance miRNAs.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects that the diagnosis of the laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma still needs histological examination, causes pain to patients and cannot be diagnosed as early as possible in the prior art, the invention provides a method for screening a laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma serum exosome miRNA marker. Based on the method, the invention provides a laryngeal squamous carcinoma serum exosome miRNA marker which is Hsa-miR-941 (miR-941).
The laryngeal squamous carcinoma serum exosome marker is prepared by the following steps:
(1) collecting serum samples of a laryngeal squamous carcinoma patient and a healthy contrast person, extracting exosomes, identifying, and extracting exosome RNA;

(3) verifying the candidate miRNAs in the enlarged sample by adopting a qRT-PCR method; before verification, firstly determining an internal reference gene of a qRT-PCR experiment, wherein the screening process comprises the following steps: screening RNAs with stable expression from the RNA sequencing data and literature reports in the step (2) as candidate internal reference genes, carrying out comprehensive analysis by 5 internal reference analysis algorithms after qRT-PCR detection, and screening the internal reference genes for qRT-PCR verification;
(4) the ROC curve evaluates the diagnostic efficacy of the miRNAs validated in step (3), i.e. the ability to identify patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and healthy individuals.

And then, carrying out PCR amplification, carrying out PAGE gel electrophoresis to separate a target DNA fragment, and cutting and recycling the gel to obtain the cDNA library.

And (3) sequencing to obtain raw reads, wherein the raw reads contain low-quality reads with connectors, and in order to ensure the quality of information analysis, the raw reads are processed to obtain clean reads. And screening small RNA in a certain length range for clean reads of each sample for subsequent analysis. The length-screened small RNAs were mapped to the reference sequence using Bowtie and then aligned in miRBase to identify known miRNAs, and new miRNAs were predicted using miRDeep2 and mirewo software. Then, the expression level of miRNAs was counted, and expression level normalization was performed using TPM (bridges per million reads). Thereafter, the differential expression analysis of miRNAs was performed between the experimental group and the control group by using DESeqR software, and the screening was evaluated from the two aspects of fold difference and significance level, and the threshold value of the screening was set as: log2(fold change) ≧ 0.5 and the P-value < 0.05.

(3) verifying the candidate miRNAs in the enlarged sample by adopting a qRT-PCR method; before verification, firstly determining an internal reference gene of a qRT-PCR experiment, wherein the screening process comprises the following steps: screening RNAs with stable expression from the RNA sequencing data and literature reports in the step (2) as candidate internal reference genes, carrying out comprehensive analysis by 5 internal reference analysis algorithms after qRT-PCR detection, and screening the internal reference genes for qRT-PCR verification;
(4) the ROC curve evaluates the diagnostic efficacy of the miRNAs validated in step (3), i.e. the ability to identify patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and healthy individuals.
3. The application of the laryngeal squamous carcinoma serum exosome marker is characterized in that: is applied to the preparation of the laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma diagnostic reagent.
4. Larynx squamous carcinoma diagnostic kit, characterized by: the kit consists of a serum exosome, an RNA extraction reagent, a miR-941 specific amplification primer and a universal PCR amplification reagent; forward primer for miR-941: 5'-GCACCCGGCTGTGT-3' are provided.
5. The application of the laryngeal squamous carcinoma diagnostic kit is characterized in that: the application of the kit containing the miR-941 detection reagent in screening and diagnosing laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
6. The laryngeal squamous carcinoma drug treatment target is characterized in that: the laryngeal squamous carcinoma drug treatment target is miR-941, and the nucleotide sequence of miR-941 is as follows: CACCCGGCUGUGUGCACAUGUGC are provided.
