Description

Circulating tumor cell rapid non-invasive capture, release and detection kit
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biotechnology and biomedicine, in particular to a kit for rapidly capturing, releasing and detecting circulating tumor cells without damage.
Background
Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) are important biomarkers for tumor fluid biopsy. CTCs are a generic term for tumor cells that have been shed from the primary foci or metastases of the tumor into the peripheral blood. CTCs appear earlier than solid tumors visible by imaging and can be used as markers for early diagnosis of tumors. In addition, the number and phenotype of CTCs are closely related to tumor progression, metastasis and prognosis. The clinical detection and counting of CTCs can be used for dynamic monitoring of tumorigenesis and development, evaluation of tumor treatment effect and guidance of preparation and implementation of tumor personalized treatment schemes. However, the content of CTCs is extremely rare and its detection requires first enrichment.
At present, a series of enrichment and separation methods for CTCs have been developed, and are roughly divided into two main categories according to the principle: an enrichment and separation method based on the physical properties of CTCs (density, size, deformability, dielectricity and the like) and an affinity identification and enrichment and separation method based on biochemical properties (immunomagnetic separation technology and microfluidic chip technology). Among them, the affinity recognition, enrichment and separation method based on biochemical properties has been widely used due to high selectivity and strong specificity. The immunomagnetic separation technology is easy to operate, does not need complex instruments and equipment, and is easy to combine multiple detection technologies, so that the immunomagnetic separation technology can be widely applied.
In a conventional immunomagnetic separation method, an anti-EpCAM antibody is directly covalently coupled and modified on the surface of a magnetic bead to construct an antibody-modified immunomagnetic bead. However, this approach has certain limitations: 1) the antibody has high cost, poor stability and short shelf life, so that the immunomagnetic separation cost is higher; 2) the tumor metastasis process of forming CTCs can undergo an epithelial-mesenchymal transition process (EMT), and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition causes the expression of EpCAM on the cell surface to be reduced or even not expressed, so that the EpCAM-based immunomagnetic separation method is easy to miss detection of mesenchymal CTCs; 3) based on an antigen-antibody recognition mode, magnetic beads can be combined on the surfaces of CTCs to influence fluorescent labeling and detection; 4) the magnetic beads are bonded on the surfaces of the CTCs and are finally internalized by the CTCs, so that cytotoxicity is generated, and the real properties of the CTCs are influenced.
At present, the research on the CTCs is not limited to detection and counting any more, and the subsequent research on the captured CTCs is more significant, such as screening of anti-tumor drugs, research on drug resistance of tumors, research on genomics and proteomics of the CTCs, and the like. Therefore, an efficient and rapid nondestructive enrichment and separation method for CTCs is urgently needed to develop downstream research after the enrichment of CTCs.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the problems in the prior art, and provides a kit for rapidly and nondestructively capturing, releasing and detecting circulating tumor cells, which is convenient for capturing and detecting CTCs and further researching the CTCs.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a kit for rapid and nondestructive capture, release and detection of circulating tumor cells comprises CTCs magnetic nano capture probe solution, erythrocyte lysate, CTCs release solution and washing buffer solution; the CTCs magnetic nano capture probe is a magnetic nano particle with the surface modified with folic acid, and folic acid on the CTCs magnetic nano capture probe is specifically combined with a folic acid receptor on the surface of the circulating tumor cell, so that the circulating tumor cell is captured and separated on an external magnetic field.
The invention also comprises CTCs detection liquid, wherein the CTCs detection liquid comprises detection liquid A, detection liquid B and detection liquid C; the detection solution A is a 4% paraformaldehyde solution; the detection solution B is a Rabbit Anti-folate receptor antibody solution (Rabbit Anti-FRsantobidy); the solution C is Cy5 labeled Goat anti-Rabbit antibody solution (Goat-anti Rabbit antibody). The detection liquid can realize the fluorescent labeling of the CTCs and the detection of the CTCs under a fluorescent microscope. Specifically, the CTCs captured by the CTCs magnetic nano capture probe are separated from the magnetic nanoparticles after being treated by CTCs release solution, the CTCs are fixed on the surface of the glass slide by detection solution A, and after being respectively treated by detection solution B and detection solution C, the surface of the CTCs shows red fluorescence, and can be observed and counted under a fluorescence microscope.
The concentration of the rabbit anti-folate receptor antibody solution is 10 mu g/m L, and the concentration of the goat anti-rabbit antibody solution is 10 mu g/m L.
The magnetic nanoparticles are carboxyl-functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles (MNs).
The construction method of the CTCs magnetic nano capture probe comprises the following steps: firstly, Cystamine molecules (Cystamine) with disulfide bonds are modified on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles to form MNs @ Cys coupling compound, and then active esterified folic acid (FA-PEG) containing polyethylene glycol chains2K-NHS) with an MNs @ Cys conjugate complex to form MNs @ Cys @ PEG2k-FA magnetic nano-capture probe.
The erythrocyte lysate contains ammonium chloride.
The CTCs release solution is a cell isotonic buffer solution containing 50mM dithiothreitol.
The washing buffer solution adopts Phosphate Buffer Solution (PBS), and can be used in the washing process of each step.
Compared with the prior art, the technical scheme of the invention has the following beneficial effects:
1. early diagnosis, intervention and treatment of cancer is an effective way to improve prognosis and survival of cancer patients. The current clinical diagnosis method still has certain hysteresis and is difficult to realize early diagnosis. CTCs are considered as important markers of tumorigenesis as markers of fluid biopsy. The kit comprises a whole set of CTCs enriching, separating, releasing, detecting and other components, can be used for rapidly screening CTCs in blood, and has important significance for prognosis of tumor patients, monitoring of tumor recurrence, formulation of individualized treatment schemes of evaluation boxes of chemotherapeutic drug effects and the like.

4. In the construction of the CTCs magnetic nano capture probe in the kit, cystamine molecules containing disulfide bonds are firstly modified. Subsequently, folic acid containing polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains is modified on the surface of the magnetic nanoparticles modified by cystamine molecules. Because the magnetic nanoparticles have certain steric hindrance, folic acid which is a small molecule directly modified on the surfaces of the magnetic nanoparticles may not be effectively recognized by folic acid receptors on the surfaces of CTCs due to the steric hindrance effect. The introduction of the PEG chain can stretch folic acid out, and the introduction of the flexible chain promotes the folic acid on the surface of the magnetic nanoparticles to be combined with folic acid receptors on the surfaces of CTCs, so that the magnetic nano-capture probes of the CTCs are more effectively and targetedly combined to the surfaces of the CTCs.
5. The release of the magnetically-captured CTCs in the kit is realized by breaking the disulfide bonds on the surfaces of the magnetic nanoparticles, so that the captured and released CTCs have higher activity and can be subjected to subsequent researches such as detection and counting, in-vitro culture, drug screening, drug resistance analysis, gene sequencing analysis, proteomics research and the like.
6. The CTCs magnetic nano-capture probe constructed in the kit is a folic acid modified CTCs magnetic nano-capture probe, and the recognition and combination with CTCs are realized by specifically combining folic acid with folic acid receptors on the surfaces of CTCs. As most tumor tissues highly express folate receptors, the magnetic nano-capture probes for CTCs have universal applicability to CTCs derived from various tumors.
