Description

Method for detecting exosome GPC1 protein by using microfluidic chip and application of exosome GPC1 protein in early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical biological detection technology and in-vitro diagnostic reagents, and particularly relates to a method for detecting exosome GPC1 protein by using a microfluidic chip and application of the method in early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
Background
Pancreatic cancer is called "cancer king" and has a mortality rate of about 90%, which is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. Pancreatic cancer has no specific symptoms, has occult onset and rapid progression, is difficult to diagnose early and easy to miss diagnosis and misdiagnose, and usually tumor is transferred to other organs when being diagnosed, so that the success rate of operation and the survival rate of 5 years after operation are both low and are only 3 percent. The research on pancreatic cancer in both China and abroad is significantly delayed from that of other gastrointestinal cancers. According to the data published by the national cancer center of China, the incidence and mortality of pancreatic cancer in China have been increasing continuously in nearly 10 years; the results of ' Chinese cancer statistical data in 2018 ' show that the number of new cases of pancreatic cancer in 2018 ' in China is 6.74/10 ten thousand, wherein 7.45/10 ten thousand of male patients and 3.47/10 ten thousand of pancreatic cancer death patients comprise 6.64/10 ten thousand of male patients and 5.18/10 ten thousand of female patients. Pancreatic cancer lacks specific tumor markers, and although the serum CA19-9 level of most pancreatic cancer patients is obviously increased, the pancreatic cancer patients can only be used for monitoring the disease condition and reflecting prognosis, and because the specificity is poor, especially the differential diagnosis of the pancreatic cancer patients and biliary diseases is difficult, and the pancreatic cancer patients can not be diagnosed early by using CA19-9 alone because the pancreatic cancer patients are normal in early stage. Early diagnosis and large-scale population screening of pancreatic cancer are difficult to achieve if only traditional imaging means are relied on. Therefore, the research on pancreatic cancer is currently the focus and the hot spot of research of scholars at home and abroad, and a sensitive, specific and noninvasive method for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is urgently sought, and a detection technology capable of early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and prognosis monitoring is urgently needed.
Exosomes are involved in regulating various diseases such as tumors and become a new research hotspot. Exosomes (exosomes) are present in various human body fluids, including blood, urine, saliva, milk, etc., and contain cell-specific proteins, lipids and nucleic acids that can be used as markers for disease diagnosis. Exosomes are important vesicles in human bodies, have the diameter of about 30-200nm and the density of 1.13-1.21g/ml, have a cup-shaped form and a double-layer membrane structure, and have more and more attention on biological functions. It has been found that tumor-derived exosomes promote tumor growth, invasion and metastasis and suppress immune responses by transferring their genetic information to recipient cells. In view of its function in tumor progression, exosomes are considered to be the most promising biomarkers for early clinical detection of human malignancies. Tumor-derived exosomes are a heterogeneous population and produce unique tumor microenvironments. Tumors are formed by complexes of tumor cells with different genes and phenotypes, such as stem cells, stromal cells, fibroblasts, immune cells and the like, exosomes secreted by all the cells form a special microenvironment of the tumor cells, and form cell-to-cell communication, promote tumor angiogenesis and tumor metastasis, directly act on the tumor cells and other pathways, and influence the tumor progression.
Glypican-1 (Glypican-1, GPC1 for short) is a specific marker of pancreatic tumor exosomes, and GPC1 is found to be expressed in a large amount in pancreatic cancer cell exosomes, and the content of the exosome GPC1 is in direct proportion to the size of tumors. The detection of the exosome GPC1 protein can be used for clinical cancer diagnosis and treatment monitoring, and has important significance. 2015 from the U.S. M.D. Anderson cancer center investigator, analysis of large numbers of samples of pancreatic cancer patient sera revealed a significant increase in the proportion of GPC 1-positive exosomes in the pancreatic cancer patient sera compared to normal. Further research shows that the GPC1 positive exosome is significantly more abundant in serum of patients with early pancreatic cancer than normal population, and can diagnose early and late pancreatic cancer with 100% accuracy and sensitivity, and the finding suggests that the GPC1 positive exosome can be used as a new detection method for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
The CN 105974122A invention discloses a method for detecting exosome GPC1 protein, which detects pancreatic cancer exosome GPC1 by combining two immunomagnetic beads of exosome specific antibodies, namely an anti-CD 9 antibody, an anti-CD 63 antibody, an anti-CD 81 antibody and an anti-Flotillin-1 antibody, and an electrochemical sensor technology, and extracts exosome by adopting magnetic bead immunocapture. However, the method is low in efficiency, is not suitable for obtaining exosomes from a large number of samples, interference proteins exist in the obtained exosomes due to non-specific adsorption of a matrix, magnetic beads and antibodies are expensive, the storage conditions are harsh, the biological activity of the exosomes is easily influenced by the pH value and the salt concentration, downstream experiments are not facilitated, and the method is difficult to popularize.
The invention patent CN 103344464A discloses a microfluidic lectin chip for glycosyl separation and a preparation method thereof. The invention mainly uses regenerated bacterial cellulose as chip filler, the lectin fixation step is simple and convenient, the spectrum monitoring is convenient, and the glycosyl is used for separating glycoprotein of microorganism. This invention is not applicable to the extraction of exosomes and the detection of tumor markers on the surface of exosomes.
The invention patent of CN 103018437A discloses a quantum dot micro-fluidic chip used for glycosyl expression analysis on the surface of a single-cell horizontal membrane. The invention is also not applicable to the extraction of exosomes and the detection of tumor markers on the surface of exosomes.
Currently, differential centrifugation is considered the gold standard for exosome separation, but has some drawbacks. The method is time-consuming, labor-consuming, highly dependent on manpower, low in recovery rate, prone to damage to the vesicle of the exosome due to repeated centrifugation operation, thereby reducing the quality of the exosome, prone to aggregation and blocking to cause pollution, and unfavorable for downstream analysis. The current methods of exosome extraction and enrichment used are limited because each cell secretes at least 10 different types of nanovesicles, which are difficult or impossible to distinguish based on similar size, density and surface markers. Therefore, at present, scholars at home and abroad actively explore an experimental method capable of quickly and efficiently separating exosomes for early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
Galectin is closely related to malignant tumor, and participates in the processes of tumor occurrence, development, invasion, metastasis, immune escape, drug resistance and the like, and becomes a hot spot for the research in the treatment of tumors and a possible new target for prevention and treatment.
Galectin (Galectin) is a glycoprotein, also known as tumor-associated protein. Glycoproteins are molecules consisting of proteins covalently linked to oligosaccharide chains by glycosylation. Glycosylation is a common post-translational modification of proteins and is classified into 4 types: n-glycosylation, O-glycosylation, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GP 1) anchored cells and C-glycosylation. Since changes in glycosylation levels are closely related to many diseases such as cancer, specifically expressed sugar chains are expected to be novel biomarkers for diagnosing diseases such as cancer, but studies on the changes are currently reported in a few countries. Galectin can interact with glycosylated extracellular matrix proteins and membrane proteins to regulate cell adhesion; galectin can also be combined with cell surface glycosylated CD98 to up-regulate the expression of integrin so as to promote the combination of cells and matrixes;
galectin can also interact with T antigen on the surface of tumor cells, mediate the adhesion of the tumor cells and endothelial cells, and participate in glycosyl-mediated homotypic and heterotypic adhesion of tumor metastasis cells. It is this specific glycosylation that suggests that it can be used to enrich for tumor exosomes.
Although the particle-shaped exosome has a smaller particle size than a cell, a large number of glycoproteins, glycolipids and sugar chains exist on the surface of the particle-shaped exosome, the outermost layer of the particle-shaped exosome is covered with the sugar chains like the cell, the sugar chains can be used as appropriate targets in exosome marker development, a tumor marker applied to clinical application can recognize a plurality of different sugar chain structures, and if the change of the sugar chains on a disease-specific exosome can be captured, the exosome can be applied to biomarker development.
The invention patent of CN 109324186A discloses an Exo-CD82+ (exosome CD82 protein expression level) combined with an Exo-GPC1+ (exosome GPC1 protein expression level) and a CA19-9 detection kit, which is used for pancreatic cancer diagnosis and/or curative effect monitoring. The exosome GPC1 protein and exosome CD82 protein are marked by an indirect immunofluorescence method, and the Exo-GPC1+ (exosome GPC1 protein expression level) and Exo-CD82+ (exosome CD82 protein expression level) are measured by a flow cytometry method. The method is complex to operate, time-consuming, labor-consuming and high in detection cost, and is limited in clinical application. At present, Western Western protein blotting, ELISA, mass spectrometry and flow cytometry methods are also adopted as exosome GPC1 protein detection methods, and the nucleic acid analysis technology mainly comprises second-generation sequencing, gene chips, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and the like. These traditional protein and nucleic acid analysis techniques are all deficient in clinical application, and are difficult to popularize and apply clinically. At present, a high-throughput detection platform with strong specificity, high sensitivity, accuracy and rapidness is still lacking, so that the research of a detection technology for rapidly determining pancreatic tumor markers with high sensitivity, high specificity, low price and simple preparation is a hot spot and a key point of the current domestic and foreign research.
