Description

Method for weakening drug resistance of tumor cells
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of tumor cell drug resistance research in the proteomics research direction, and particularly relates to a method for enriching lysine and arginine methylated peptide fragments by combining a stable isotope labeling technology with solid phase extraction-strong cation exchange resin under a cell culture condition.
Background
Cancer is a common malignant tumor and a serious disease which easily causes death of human beings, and some chemotherapeutic drugs can kill cancer cells well, but can easily cause drug resistance of the cancer cells after long-term administration (document 1.Li, X.; yu, J.; brock, M.V.; tao, Q.; herman, J.G.; liang, P.; guo, M., epigenic shaping of BCL6B inactivates p53 signaling and consumers human hepatocellular resistance 2015,6, (13), 11547-11560.), so understanding the molecular mechanism of drug resistance of the cancer cells is very critical for identifying new therapeutic targets to weaken the resistance of the cells.
Intracellular signal transduction is often accomplished by different post-translational modifications of proteins, such as phosphorylation and methylation, the basic cellular transduction pathways of phosphorylation being well defined. Although methylation and phosphorylation were found to be synchronized in time, signal transduction pathways for protein methylation have not been well documented. Methylation typically occurs at arginine and lysine residues of proteins. Lysine can form monomethylation, dimethylation and trimethylation by the action of lysine methyltransferase with S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl donor (document 2.Paik, W.K., paik, D.C., kim, S.A., historial review: the field of Protein methylation.trends biochem. Sci.2007,32,146-152, document 3.lake, A.N., bedford, M.T., protein methylation and DNA repair. Mutat. Res. -Fundam.mol. Mel.2007, 618,91-101, document 4.Smith, B.C., denu, J.M., specimen of Protein methylation, biochemical engineering. Achia-Biochemical and 1745, et 2009). Arginine side chains form monomethylation and dimethylation by Arginine methyltransferase (document 5.Bedford, M.T., richard, S., arginine methyl: an empirical regulation of protein function. Molecular Cell 2005,18, 263-272), wherein dimethylation is further divided into symmetric dimethylation and asymmetric dimethylation. There is a large body of evidence that protein methylation plays a key role in maintaining intracellular function and cellular physiological and pathological changes. Histone methylation affects physical properties of chromatin, affecting gene expression (ref 6.Zhou, v.w., goren, a., bernstein, b.e., charting histones modifications and the functional organization of mammalian genes. Nature Reviews Genetics 2011,12, 7-18.). In addition to histones, methylation of lysine and arginine also occurs in non-histones and plays an important regulatory role (7. Paik, W.K., paik, D.C., kim, S., historical review: the field of protein methylation. Trends biochem. Sci.2007,32, 146-152.), however, there has been no report on how resistant methylation occurs in tumor cells.
In order to better understand the state change of protein methylation in tumor cell drug resistance, the invention is based on the combination of the re-labeled methionine mark and the solid phase extraction-strong cation exchange resin to enrich lysine and arginine methylation peptide fragments. By analyzing methylation sites motif of sensitive and drug-resistant cells, the preference of methyl transferase catalyzing the cells is obviously different, the ratio of the expression quantity of corresponding methylation modification sites in the drug-resistant and sensitive cells is obtained by comparison, and the content of the methyl transferase corresponding to the methyl site with the largest absolute value is adjusted, so that the drug resistance of tumor cells is weakened.

(13) The siRNA technology is utilized to down-regulate METTL21A in a medicinal composition, and the specific experimental design is as follows: injecting 50 mu L of DEPC water into the tumor body at multiple points and injecting 200 mu L of 0.9 percent sodium chloride injection into the abdominal cavity; 5-Fu group: injecting DEPC water 50 mu L and intraperitoneal injection 5-Fu (3 mg/kg) into tumor body at multiple points; group of sirnas: tumor is injected with 500pmol siRNA and 200 muL sodium chloride injection of 0.9 percent in abdominal cavity in a multi-point way; siRNA in combination with 5-Fu group: tumor volume was recorded by multipoint siRNA 500pmol + intraperitoneal 5-Fu injection (3 mg/kg), once a week for a total of 4 times.
Fig. 2 is the change of the tumor volume of the tumor cells in the dosing process, and it can be seen that the tumor volume of the control group gradually increases with the increase of time, however, the tumor volume of the drug group gradually decreases with the increase of time in the initial stage, the tumor volume is minimum at the fifth week, and then the tumor volume gradually increases with the increase of time, which indicates that the drug group tumor cells have drug resistance.
FIG. 3 shows the IC50 values of tumor cells of the control group and the drug group, wherein the IC50 value of the control group is 2.069mg/kg, the IC50 value of the drug group is 61.83mg/kg, and the IC50 value of the drug group is 29.9 times of that of the control group, and the drug group can be used for the next experiment.
FIG. 4 shows the results of quantitative analysis of methylation sites, and it can be seen that a total of amounts of methylation patterns is 231, 89 are statistically significant, and 15 methylation patterns are found to be up-regulated and include 9 arginine methylation patterns and 6 lysine methylation patterns, 74 methylation patterns are down-regulated and include 42 arginine methylation patterns and 32 lysine methylation patterns, and the remaining 142 methylation patterns are unchanged, and these differential methylation patterns may play an important role in tumor cell resistance.
FIG. 5 shows the results of a motif analysis of methylation sites, from which it can be seen that the sequence characteristics of the up-regulated lysine methylated form are significantly different from those of the down-regulated methylated form, and further we have found that lysine methyltransferases in tumor cells in a drug group prefer a lysine with arginine in the ortho-methylation position, which suggests that methyltransferases of the type that prefer methylation may be associated with drug resistance in tumor cells.
FIG. 6 shows the results of the tumor cell growth volume curve, from which it can be seen that the tumor volume change trends of the control group, the 5-Fu group and the siRNA are almost consistent with the increase of time, whereas the tumor cell growth of the siRNA and 5-Fu group is obviously inhibited.
In summary, the invention relates to a method for separating methylation sites of sensitive and drug-resistant cells by combining a stable isotope labeling technology with solid phase extraction-strong cation exchange resin under a cell culture condition. The method is easy to operate, low in cost and good in reproducibility, lysine and arginine methylation sites of sensitive and drug-resistant cells can be enriched simultaneously, different lysine and arginine methylation sites can be obtained through labelfree quantification, and the content of methyltransferases corresponding to the different methylation sites is adjusted, so that the drug resistance of tumor cells is weakened.
