Abstract

The invention discloses a method for measuring the cell cycle by adopting the cell autofluorecence spectrum. By utilizing the influence of the continuous variation of an intracellular fluorescent substance (such as amino acid, nucleic acid, protein and the like) during the variation process of the cell cycle (G1 cycle, S cycle, G2 cycle and M cycle) on the peak position, the spectrum peak and the pear intensity of the fluorecence spectrum thereof, the method finds the corresponding relationship between the parameters and the cycle the cell locates in, establishes a cell cycle fluorecence spectrum model and finally implements the accurate measurement of a single cell cycle by utilizing the model. The method has the advantages of simple sampling process, convenient operation, common instrument and equipment, high accuracy and high measurement speed, and can conveniently judge the cell cycle of a cell by applying the relationship that the cell absorption peak intensity varies along with the cell cycle. No fluorescent dye is needed to dye a cell sample, thereby eliminating the adverse effect due to the application of the fluorescent dye, so that the cell can be used for the subsequent cultivation and research after being measured.

Description

Utilize the cell autofluorescence spectrum to measure the method for cell cycle
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method of measuring the cell cycle, particularly a kind of cell autofluorescence spectrum that utilizes accurately reflects the method that the cell cycle changes.
Background technology
Cell is as the basis of life science, and the key issue of all life all will be sought from cell.The research of great biological phenomenas such as biological reproductive development, heredity, nerve (brain) activity all will be based on cell.Plants and Animals grows and relies on cell proliferation, cell differentiation and Apoptosis to realize that the pathogenesis of all diseases also will be based on cytopathy research.Cell division is the substantially the most most important process of origin of life.Cell growth and cell division are the citation forms of all biological propagation, and cell growth and fissional cycle are is called for short the cell cycle (cellcycle) cell generation cycle.For eukaryotic, its cell cycle was made up of G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase and M phase, and it is the comprehensive embodiment of the whole physiology courses of cell, is prevalent in the higher organism.At present, cell cycle and regulatory mechanism thereof demonstrate huge directive significance in fields such as tumour, stem cell transplantation, aging, reproduction and science of heredity.
At present, the research method of judging for the cell cycle mainly contains following several: optical microscopy, flow cytometry analysis method (dna content analysis), 3H-TdR labelling method etc.Optical microscopy mainly is to observe to judge the cell cell cycle of living in by the form of microscope pair cell, and this method is by eye-observation, and judgement speed is slow; The flow cytometry analysis method is widely used in cell cycle research, but costs an arm and a leg.Start with from dna content, G1 phase and G2/M phase are contained fixing dna content, are respectively 1 times and 2 times, and the dna content of S phase cell is used the length that flow cytometer just can be determined the cell cycle by the variation of monitoring cell DNA content between 1 times and 2 times.But because the dna content of G2 phase and M phase cell all is 2 times, so flow cytometer can't be distinguished G2 phase and M phase cell.The 3H-TdR labelling method is a kind of classical way of measuring cell.But the radioactive isotope that uses during it is measured requires Special Equipment, is easy to the operator is damaged and environment is polluted, and the cell cycle of radioactive isotope own also has interference and inevitable simultaneously.
Cell is in the change procedure of cell cycle, and materials such as the amino acid of cell interior, protein, nucleic acid all will huge variation take place along with the growth change of cell.Histiocytic fluorescence has two kinds: a kind of is autofluorescence, and a kind of is secondary fluorescence.Autofluorescence is meant that cell or tissue dyes without fluorchrome, the fluorescence that is sent under the irradiation of ultraviolet light or short-wavelength light.Histocyte is after fluorchrome dyeing, and the fluorescence that some composition and fluorchrome present in conjunction with the back in the cell is called secondary fluorescence.The variation of above-mentioned two kinds of fluorescence spectrums can the reacting cells cycle variation, wherein the variation of autofluorescence is mainly caused by aromatic amino acid in the protein and nucleic acid, secondary fluorescence is fluorchrome and intracellular some special component present different colours in conjunction with the back a selectivity fluorescence, though this fluorescence is convenient to more by force observe, but be used to produce the fluorchrome of secondary fluorescence or the spinoff that stain may bring the unknown to cell, growth impacts to cell.Therefore utilize the fluorophore in the direct pair cell of autofluorescence spectrum method of cell to study.Nucleic acid and protein are the very important two class materials that produce fluorescence in the cell.The fluorescence quantum yield of nucleic acid is very low, brings bigger difficulty to detection.Protein constitutes the major part of cell, accounts for the over half of dry cell weight, demonstrates hyperfluorescence in 300~350nm scope, and it and vital movement are closely bound up, have diversified function in vivo.The intrinsic photoluminescent property of protein makes that utilizing fluorescent spectrometry that it is studied has special advantages, and it has natural fluoresence mainly is because aromatic amino acid---tyrosine, tryptophane and phenylalanine.Their relative intensity of fluorescence is than being 100:9:0.5, and the maximum emission wavelength of phenylalanine is 282nm, tyrosine 304nm, tryptophane 340nm.
At present, both at home and abroad judge with the cell cycle of pair cell and yet there are no report by setting up cell autofluorescence spectrum model.
Summary of the invention
At above shortcomings in the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of short-cut method that can judge eukaryotic cell cycle in each stage (G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase and M phase), the influence of biochemical reaction pair cell internal protein in the fluorescence spectrum information of same cell growth behavior of cell and the cell proliferation process is connected cell cycle judge.

Be that excitation wavelength scans in 250~700nm scope at first with 250nm, obtain cell after the emission spectrum under the 250nm situation, measure the excitation spectrum between 250nm first fluorescence peak wavelength in the emission spectrum, find the strongest peak of fluorescence intensity in the excitation spectrum, the pairing wavelength in this peak is the maximum excitation wavelength of tested cell sample, at last do exciting light and measure this wavelength to the fluorescence spectrum between 700nm, sweep spacing 0.1nm with maximum excitation wavelength;
For the situation of in the fluorescence spectrum scope, having only a fluorescence peak, then directly utilize this fluorescence peak intensity and the relation of cell cycle to set up model and differentiate by fluorescence peak intensity cell cycle; For the situation that a plurality of absorption peaks are arranged in the fluorescence spectrum scope, then set up apart from nearest fluorescence peak intensity of excitation wavelength and the relation curve of cell cycle, utilize this to concern that cell cycle differentiates again;
2) utilize fluorospectrophotometer or fluorescence spectrophotometer in maximum excitation wavelength arrives the 700nm scope, sample is scanned, after the gained curve of spectrum carried out pre-service, with the absorption peak strength contrast of the absorption peak strength of the sample curve of spectrum and the fluorescence spectrum model of described certain cell cycle, can judge which that tested cell is in the cell cycle in stage.
