Description
本発明は、試料中に含まれる細胞を染色する方法に関する。特に本発明は、試料中に含まれる細胞を膜透過させた後、染色試薬を用いて前記細胞を染色する方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for staining cells contained in a sample. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of staining cells using a staining reagent after allowing cells contained in a sample to permeate the membrane.
細胞内における標的タンパクの局在や発現量の確認を、当該標的タンパクを認識する標識抗体を含む染色試薬で前記細胞を染色(染色工程)して確認する場合、前記染色工程前に前記細胞が有する生体膜(細胞膜や核膜など)を透過させる工程(膜透過工程)が必要である。膜透過工程では、生体膜への浸透性を増強するために一般的に界面活性剤やアルコール等が用いられる。例えば、非特許文献1では抗Nanog抗体を含む染色試薬を用いて人工多能性幹細胞(iPS細胞)を染色する前に、界面活性剤であるサポニンを含む試薬を用いて前記細胞の膜透過処理を行っている。 When confirming the localization and expression level of a target protein in a cell by staining the cell with a staining reagent containing a labeled antibody that recognizes the target protein (staining step), the cell A step (membrane permeation step) for permeating the biological membrane (cell membrane, nuclear membrane, etc.) is required. In the membrane permeation step, a surfactant, alcohol or the like is generally used in order to enhance the permeability to the biological membrane. For example, in Non-Patent Document 1, before staining artificial pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) with a staining reagent containing an anti-Nanog antibody, membrane permeabilization of the cells using a reagent containing a saponin as a surfactant is performed. It is carried out.
しかしながら、膜透過工程で生体膜の透過処理が不十分だと、後続の染色工程で細胞内に染色試薬が十分に拡散せず、染色が不均一になり、偽陰性が増えるという問題があった。特にiPS細胞から目的細胞に分化誘導させる工程では、iPS細胞が造腫瘍能を有するため、分化誘導工程後に含まれるiPS細胞を極めて高感度に検出する(すなわち偽陰性を極力減らす)必要があり、より効果的な生体膜の透過処理法が求められている。 However, if the permeabilization treatment of the biological membrane is insufficient in the membrane permeation process, there is a problem that the staining reagent does not sufficiently diffuse into the cells in the subsequent staining process, the staining becomes uneven, and false negatives increase. . In particular, in the process of inducing differentiation from iPS cells to target cells, iPS cells have tumorigenic potential, and therefore it is necessary to detect iPS cells contained after the differentiation induction process with extremely high sensitivity (that is, to reduce false negatives as much as possible). There is a need for a more effective biomembrane permeabilization method.
本発明の課題は、細胞が有する生体膜の透過効率を改善し、前記細胞の染色像を改善する方法を提供することにある。 The subject of this invention is providing the method of improving the permeation | transmission efficiency of the biological membrane which a cell has, and improving the dyeing | staining image of the said cell.

Example 1
The difference in cell staining due to the membrane permeation process was evaluated by the following method.
(1) Human iPS cell 201B7 strain (purchased from iPS Academia Japan) was seeded on a petri dish coated with iMatrix (Takara Bio) and cultured in StemFitAK02N medium (Takara Bio).
(2) The iPS cells cultured for 7 days in (1) are washed with PBS (phosphate buffered saline), and then mixed with TrypLE select (manufactured by Thermo Fisher) and Versene Solution (manufactured by Thermo Fisher). Cells were detached.
(3) After recovering the detached cells, the cells were fixed by immersing them in a 4% (w / v) paraformaldehyde solution at room temperature for 40 minutes.
(4) The fixed cells were washed twice with PBS containing 0.5% BSA and 2 mM EDTA (Buffer A) and then replaced with 90% (v / v) methanol under the conditions (b) and (d) on ice. The membrane permeation process was performed by leaving still for 30 minutes.
(5) Buffer A under conditions (a) and (b), 5% (v / v) FBS (fetal calf serum) and 0.75% (w / v) under conditions (c) and (d) Each was washed with PBS (Buffer B) containing saponin.
(6) In conditions (a) and (b), immerse in Buffer A containing rabbit-derived anti-mouse Nanog antibody (manufactured by Cell Signaling Technology), and in conditions (c) and (d), in Buffer B containing the antibody. Each of the cells was immersed for 90 minutes at room temperature to form a complex of an undifferentiated iPS cell and an antibody against the protein (Nanog) of the cell.
(7) Washing was performed twice with Buffer A under the conditions (a) and (b), and with Buffer B under the conditions (c) and (d).
(8) Soaking in Buffer A containing goat-derived anti-rabbit IgG antibody (manufactured by Thermo Fisher) labeled with Alexa Fluor 488, a labeled secondary antibody under the conditions of (a) and (b), (c) and (d ) Were immersed in Buffer B containing the antibody, and reacted at room temperature for 90 minutes.
(9) After washing with Buffer A three times, the ratio of Nanog positive iPS cells was measured with FACSAria (BD Bioscience).
(10) The steps shown in (3) to (9) above are similarly performed using megakaryocyte blast cell line K562 cells as cells that do not express Nanog, and a boundary line between Nanog positive and Nanog negative is created in FACSAria. did.
FACSAriaの結果を図1に示す。アルコールであるメタノールおよび/または界面活性剤であるサポニンを用いて膜透過処理((b)から(d)の条件)することで、膜透過処理を行なわなかったとき((a)の条件)と比較し、Nanog陽性細胞の割合が向上しており、アルコールまたは界面活性剤により細胞が有する生体膜の脂質成分が可溶化されることがわかる。 The results of FACSAria are shown in FIG. Membrane permeation treatment (conditions (b) to (d)) using methanol as an alcohol and / or saponin as a surfactant (conditions (a)) In comparison, the ratio of Nanog positive cells is improved, and it can be seen that the lipid component of the biological membrane of the cells is solubilized by alcohol or a surfactant.
特にアルコールであるメタノールおよび界面活性剤であるサポニンを用いて膜透過処理したとき((d)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:84.4%)は、メタノールまたはサポニンのいずれか一方を用いて膜透過処理したとき((b)および(c)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:77.1%および66.2%)と比較し、Nanog陽性細胞の割合がさらに向上していることから、アルコールによる膜透過処理と界面活性剤による膜透過処理とを組み合わせることによって、膜透過処理効率がさらに向上し、抗Nanog抗体を含む染色試薬が細胞内へ拡散しやすくなり、細胞中のNanogタンパクとの結合性を改善でき、Nanog発現細胞をより高感度に検出できることが示唆される。 In particular, when membrane permeation treatment was performed using methanol as an alcohol and saponin as a surfactant (condition (d), ratio of Nanog positive cells: 84.4%), either methanol or saponin was used. Compared with the membrane permeation treatment (conditions (b) and (c), ratio of Nanog positive cells: 77.1% and 66.2%), the ratio of Nanog positive cells is further improved. By combining the membrane permeation treatment with alcohol and the membrane permeation treatment with a surfactant, the membrane permeation treatment efficiency is further improved, and the staining reagent containing the anti-Nanog antibody is easily diffused into the cell. This suggests that Nanog-expressing cells can be detected with higher sensitivity.
なお、(a)から(d)の条件でNanog陰性細胞(K562株)を測定したところ、いずれの条件もNanog陽性細胞の割合が1%以下となり、膜透過処理による偽陽性の発生はないことを確認した。 In addition, when Nanog negative cells (K562 strain) were measured under the conditions (a) to (d), the ratio of Nanog positive cells was 1% or less under any condition, and there was no occurrence of false positives due to membrane permeabilization. It was confirmed.
(実施例2)
実施例1(b)および(d)の条件のうち、(4)の膜透過処理で用いるアルコールを90%(v/v)エタノールとした他は、実施例1と同様な方法で行ない、アルコールによる細胞染色の違いを評価した。
(Example 2)
Of the conditions in Examples 1 (b) and (d), alcohol was used in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the alcohol used in the membrane permeation treatment in (4) was 90% (v / v) ethanol. The difference in cell staining due to was evaluated.
FACSAriaの結果を図2に示す。膜透過工程で用いるアルコールをエタノールに替えても、実施例1と同様、界面活性剤であるサポニンを用いた膜透過処理を組み合わせる((f)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:79.9%)ことによって、エタノールまたはサポニンのいずれか一方を用いて膜透過処理したとき((e)および(c)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:73.4%および66.2%)と比較し、Nanog陽性細胞の割合がさらに向上していることから、アルコールによる膜透過処理と界面活性剤による膜透過処理とを組み合わせることによって、膜透過処理効率がさらに向上し、抗Nanog抗体を含む染色試薬が細胞内へ拡散しやすくなり、細胞中のNanogタンパクとの結合性を改善でき、Nanog発現細胞をより高感度に検出できることが示唆される。 The results of FACSAria are shown in FIG. Even if the alcohol used in the membrane permeation step is changed to ethanol, the membrane permeation treatment using the saponin as a surfactant is combined as in Example 1 (condition (f), ratio of Nanog positive cells: 79.9% ), When compared with membrane permeabilization treatment with either ethanol or saponin (conditions (e) and (c), percentage of Nanog positive cells: 73.4% and 66.2%) Since the ratio of Nanog positive cells is further improved, by combining the membrane permeation treatment with alcohol and the membrane permeation treatment with a surfactant, the membrane permeation treatment efficiency is further improved, and a staining reagent containing an anti-Nanog antibody is obtained. It can easily diffuse into cells, improve the binding with Nanog protein in cells, and detect Nanog-expressing cells with higher sensitivity. There is suggested.
一方、実施例1(d)の条件(Nanog陽性細胞の割合:84.4%)と、本実施例(f)の条件(Nanog陽性細胞の割合:79.9%)とを比較すると、(d)の条件の方がNanog陽性細胞の割合が高いことから、本発明の染色方法において膜透過工程で用いるアルコールとしてはメタノールが好ましいことがわかる。 On the other hand, when the conditions of Example 1 (d) (Nanog positive cell ratio: 84.4%) and the conditions of this Example (f) (Nanog positive cell ratio: 79.9%) were compared, Since the ratio of Nanog positive cells is higher under the condition d), it is understood that methanol is preferable as the alcohol used in the membrane permeation step in the staining method of the present invention.
なお、(e)および(f)の条件でNanog陰性細胞(K562株)を測定したところ、いずれの条件もNanog陽性細胞の割合が1%以下となり、膜透過処理による偽陽性の発生はないことを確認した。 In addition, when Nanog negative cells (K562 strain) were measured under the conditions of (e) and (f), the ratio of Nanog positive cells was 1% or less under any condition, and there was no occurrence of false positives due to membrane permeabilization. It was confirmed.

(Example 3)
Of the conditions of Example 1 (d),

(7) is cleaned using Buffer C,
The same method as in Example 1 except that the labeling of (8) was carried out by immersing in Buffer C containing goat-derived anti-rabbit IgG antibody (manufactured by Thermo Fisher) labeled with Alexa Fluor 488 for 90 minutes at room temperature. The difference in cell staining with the surfactant was evaluated.
FACSAriaの結果を図3に示す。アルコールと界面活性剤とを組み合わせて膜透過処理を行なう際、界面活性剤としてTriton X−100(商品名)を用いる((g)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:76.2%)と、サポニンを用いたとき((d)の条件、Nanog陽性細胞の割合:84.4%)と比較し、Nanog陽性細胞の割合が低下したことから、本発明の染色方法において膜透過工程で用いる界面活性剤としてはコレステロールを特異的に可溶化するサポニンが好ましいことがわかる。 The results of FACSAria are shown in FIG. When performing membrane permeation treatment by combining alcohol and a surfactant, Triton X-100 (trade name) is used as a surfactant (condition (g), ratio of Nanog positive cells: 76.2%). Compared to the case of using saponin (condition (d), ratio of Nanog positive cells: 84.4%), the ratio of Nanog positive cells was reduced, so that the interface used in the membrane permeation step in the staining method of the present invention It can be seen that saponins that specifically solubilize cholesterol are preferred as the active agent.
なお、(g)の条件での、Nanog陰性細胞(K562株)を測定したところ、Nanog陽性細胞の割合が1%以下と、膜透過処理による偽陽性の発生はないことを確認した。 In addition, when Nanog negative cells (K562 strain) were measured under the conditions of (g), it was confirmed that the ratio of Nanog positive cells was 1% or less and no false positives were generated by membrane permeabilization.
