Description

Application of human IMPA2 gene and related product
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biomedical research, and particularly relates to application of a human IMPA2 gene and a related product.
Background
The IMPA2 gene encodes a phytase enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of inositol monophosphates to free inositol, an enzyme pathway that is critical in cellular function because inositol is the substrate for the synthesis of membrane lipid Phosphatidylinositol (PI). Dephosphorylation of inositol monophosphates is the rate-limiting step of PI regeneration [ Ohnishi t., Ohba h., Seo k.c., Im j., satoy, Iwayama y.spatial expression patterns and biochemical expression profile a second myo-inositol monophosphomutase IMPA2 from IMPA1.j biolchem.2007; 282(1) 637-646, Harwood A.J. Lithium and bipolar food dissorder, the inositols-removal hy recycled. mol Psychiatry.2005; 10(1):117-126.]. When cells are stimulated, PI 4, 5-diphosphate is hydrolyzed by phospholipase C, producing two second messengers: inositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol. IP3 triggers Ca (2+) release from intracellular stores and is multi-step dephosphorylated by multiple enzymes for inositol reuse [ Fisher s.k., Novak j.e., agrano ff b.w. inositols and herol phosphate in neural tissues: homeostatis, metabolism and functionalization j neurochem.2002; 82(4) 736-754, Rapoport S.I., Primiani C.T., ChenC.T., Ahn K., Ryan V.H. coordinated expression of phosphorus microorganisms with degradation and alignment of human dorsolateral precursor PLoS one.2015; 10(7)]. There are two genes of IMPase in mammals, the well-characterized myo-inositol monophosphatase 1(IMPA1) and myo-inositol monophosphatase 2(IMPA2) [ Ohnishi T., Ohba H., Seo K.C., Im J., Sato Y., Iwayama Y.spatial expression patterns and biochemical properties diagnosis second myo-inositol monophosphatase IMPA2 from IMP A1.J Biol chem.2007; 282(1):637-646.]. Until now, inositol has important clinical implications in the psychiatric field (e.g. bipolar disorder). Direct inhibition of IMPase has been used as a first-line drug in bipolar disorders in vivo and in vitro for half a century [ Berridge M.J., Downnes C.P., Hanley M.R.neural and translational actions of lithium: a uniform hypothesis.cell.1989; 59(3):411-419.]. The existing studies indicate that the IMPA2 gene is associated with leukemia and renal cancer.
At present, no report about the application of IMPA2 gene in cervical cancer treatment exists.

Example 3 examination of the proliferative Capacity of tumor cells infected with IMPA2-siRNA lentivirus
Human cervical carcinoma SiHa cells in logarithmic growth phase are trypsinized to prepare cell suspension (the cell number is about 5X 10)4/ml) were inoculated in 6-well plates and cultured until the degree of cell confluence reached about 30%. According to the infection complex number (MOI, SiHa: 20), adding a proper amount of virus, culturing for 24h, then replacing the culture medium, and collecting cells of each experimental group in the logarithmic growth phase after the infection time reaches 5 days. Complete medium resuspension into cell suspension (2X 10)4Per ml) at a cell density of about 1000 per well, 96-well plates were seeded. Each set of 5 duplicate wells, 100. mu.l per well. After the plate is laid, the plate is placed at 37 ℃ and 5% CO2Culturing in an incubator. The plate reading was performed once a day with Celigo instrument (Nexcelom) starting the next day after plating, and the plate reading was performed continuously for 5 days. The number of green fluorescent cells in the well plate of each scanning was accurately calculated by adjusting the input parameters of analysis settings, and the data was statistically plotted to generate a cell proliferation curve (the result is shown in fig. 3).
The results show that after each tumor of the lentivirus infection group is cultured in vitro for 5 days, the proliferation speed is obviously slowed down and is far lower than that of the tumor cells of the control group, the number of viable cells is reduced by 55.29 percent, and the SiHa cell proliferation capacity of the human cervical carcinoma caused by the silencing of IMPA2 gene is inhibited.
Example 4 examination of the clonogenic Capacity of tumor cells infected with IMPA2-siRNA lentivirus
The human cervical carcinoma SiHa cells are digested by trypsin and then inoculated into a 12-hole plate, and the cell density is 10-15%. The next day, the medium was changed to fresh medium containing 5ug/ml polybrene.

Preparing a cell staining solution: 40 XPI stock (2 mg/mL): 100 XRNase stock (10 mg/mL): 1 × D-Hanks ═ 25: 10: 1000 cell staining: according to the Cell amount, adding a certain volume of Cell staining solution (0.6-1mL) for resuspension, so that the Cell passing rate during loading is 300-800 cells/s. Adding a flow cytometer for detection.
As shown in FIGS. 5a and 5b, the periodic distribution of tumor cells was changed by the PI-FACS method, which detected the decrease of IMPA2 gene expression. After RNA interference reduced gene expression (KD group) compared to control interference (NC group), the percentage of cells in G1 phase did not change significantly, the percentage of cells in S phase increased, and the percentage of cells in G2/M phase decreased, indicating that IMPA2 affected the cycle of cervical cancer cells.
Example 6 detection of apoptosis levels in tumor cells infected with IMPA2-siRNA lentivirus
Human cervical carcinoma SiHa cells are inoculated in a 6-well plate after being digested by trypsin, and the cell density is 10-15%. The next day was changed to fresh medium. IMPA2-siRNA lentivirus was administered according to MOI, SiHa:20 were added to the plates and the medium was changed fresh 12-24h after infection. After 5 days of infection, fluorescence was observed under a fluorescence microscope, and the infection efficiency reached 90%.
After trypsinizing the cells in logarithmic growth phase, resuspending the complete medium into a cell suspension; collecting the supernatant in the same 5mL centrifuge tube, each group having three multiple holes (the number of cells is not less than 5 × 10 to ensure enough cells on the machine5Treatment). 1300rmp for 5min, discard the supernatant and wash the cell pellet with 4 ℃ pre-cooled PBS. The cell pellet was washed once with 1 Xbinding buffer, centrifuged at 1300rmp for 3min, and the cells were collected. 200 muL1 × binding buffer resuspended the cell pellet. Add 10. mu.L Annexin V-APC staining, and keep away from light for 10-15min at room temperature. According to the cell amount, 400-800. mu.L of 1 XBindingbuffer is added, and detection is carried out by an up-flow cytometer. The results were analyzed.
As shown in FIGS. 6a and 6b, the change of apoptosis ratio of tumor cells after the Annexin V single staining method detects the expression of the reduced gene. It was found that the apoptosis rate of tumor cells increases after down-regulating the expression of IMPA2 gene. Following reduced gene expression by RNA interference (KD group), the number of apoptotic tumor cells increased significantly compared to control interference (NC group); indicating that gene silencing leads to apoptosis of tumor cells.
