Definitions
- the invention relates to the detection of biological and pathological body fluids, in particular to a system for separating rare components from a biological body fluid sample and its application, and further relates to a system for separating rare cells from a whole blood cell population and its application, in particular to a system Large-capacity, online, low-hemolytic system for collecting circulating tumor cells from blood and its application.
- Rare cells refer to some atypical cells in biological fluid samples (including blood, pleural fluid, ascites, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, etc.). Studies have shown that the collection of rare cells and the use of them to complete NGS analysis have important guiding significance for finding potential therapeutic mechanisms, pathological mechanisms and targeted drug development of the disease.
- the research methods for detecting rare cells in blood mainly include flow sorting technology, morphological separation method, density gradient centrifugation method, membrane filtration method and immunomagnetic separation technology.
- BD FACSAris can achieve high-speed cell sorting. The transient laser will damage the sorted cells, and the cell viability will be damaged after the sorting activity.
- Circulating tumor cells CTCs refer to tumor cells that enter human peripheral blood.
- CTCs in peripheral blood of cancer patients are very small, generally about 10 7 orders of magnitude CTCs in blood cells are only single digits (2-10 per ml), but CTCs are a very important liquid biopsy, a prognosis and Inter-treatment follow-up tool. Because the number of circulating tumor cells is extremely scarce, the accuracy and specificity of their detection are very high, and further analysis is more difficult. Therefore, it is urgent to develop efficient, high-throughput, fast circulating tumor cells from blood samples. Separated portable methods and tools.
- Circulating tumor cells in human peripheral blood are tumor cells (CTCs) or cell clusters (CTM) that have been spread by the tumor lesions into the peripheral blood circulation. Surviving CTCs or CTM leave the blood circulation and enter the local microenvironment of secondary organs. Under the action of growth factors, proliferation and growth can eventually form metastases. Circulating tumor cells are an important source of tumor blood tract metastases, and distant metastasis is one of the direct causes of tumor treatment failure, recurrence and death.
- CTCs the prerequisite for clinical diagnosis or laboratory analysis of CTC is to obtain sufficient CTC cells. Since in the peripheral blood CTCs per 10 6 to 10 7 mononuclear cells contain only a CTCs, therefore CTCs sensitivity and specificity of detection are made high demands. At present, the detection schemes of various CTCs mainly include CTCs separation and enrichment systems, and CTCs detection and identification systems.
- the CellSearch TM system is the most representative CTCs separation and collection system. It has been approved by the US FDA for the detection of circulating tumor cells in metastatic breast cancer.
- the CellSearch TM system uses magnetic particles labeled with antibodies against EpCAM to circulate tumors in the blood. Cell capture, but this system only detects 10ml of blood drawn. Compared with circulating blood, more potential circulating tumor cells have not been detected, and there is a selective offset of the sample.
- the sample detected by this method is already in vitro. After being left for several hours, the cells are in a state of hypoxia or even hypoxia. At this time, the captured circulating tumor cells have lost their viability, and it is difficult to analyze signal pathways and functionalities, and it is impossible to perform in vitro culture, single-cell sequencing and other tasks.
- microfluidic cell immune chip is to detect CTCs through a micro-fluid device.
- the detection method has the characteristics of high specificity, sensitivity and repeatability.
- the captured CTCs have cell activity and can be Isolation and use in cell culture and various other downstream technology researches are a new and efficient method for the clinical application value of CTCs.
- the volume of blood samples detected by ordinary microfluidic cell immunochips is small, and there are still defects such as selective shift of samples.
- CTCs The identification and characterization of CTCs provides opportunities for research, monitoring, and ultimately changing the transfer process.
- a major limitation of most existing microfluidic systems is that device efficiency is limited by the shear stresses the device exerts on blood cells and CTCs. Too much shear stress will destroy blood cells and CTCs.
- CTC When CTC ruptures, the target isolate (CTC itself) is lost, and the internal group of CTC is dispersed into the fluid.
- blood cells mainly white blood cells
- the intracellular material released further complicates non-specific interactions between species in the blood, making high-purity CTC extraction more difficult.
- Some existing devices have attempted to avoid damage to cells, including blood cells and CTC, by using low-channel microfluidic devices to reduce shear stress.
- low channels cause a reduction in the volume of fluid flowing through the channels, which in turn results in very low flow rates.
- Such a device is not sufficient to quickly process large amounts of blood to make it practical and useful.
- rapid processing of large volumes (7-30 mL) of blood is a prerequisite for high-yield separation of intact CTCs.
- the whole blood can not be screened and analyzed. There are problems such as small blood collection samples, insufficient collection of CTCs, and selective sample migration.
- Connecting the existing external CTCs collection and separation device online to the blood circulation in the body may cause damage to the cells in the blood, and there is a risk of hemolysis.
- the device will cause cell fragments after the hemolysis to promote blood clotting and blood quality degradation. May cause potential clinical risks. Therefore, there is a need for a system that can access the blood circulation in the body, collect CTCs online, and reduce the risk of hemolysis, so that the treated blood meets the blood transfusion standard (1, no severe hemolysis; 2, in vitro time does not exceed 6 hours; 3, cannot Use a liquid that can hemolyze red blood cells to clean or process the blood), an easy-to-use, online, large-capacity, low hemolytic circulating tumor cell collection system.

Abstract
本发明公开了稀有细胞捕获系统及其应用,该系统包括流体管道设备,循环动力装置设备,组分捕获设备和任选的抗凝剂释放设备;其中该循环动力装置设备和组分捕获设备通过流体管道设备串联接入流体循环系统,形成体外流体循环通路;其中该组分捕获设备包括微流控芯片或芯片组。本发明还公开了使用所述捕获系统捕获血液中稀有细胞的方法。该系统及其应用具有大容量、在线式、低溶血性等优点。
Description
本发明涉及生物与病理体液检测,尤其涉及一种从生物体液样本中分离稀有组分的系统及其应用,进一步涉及一种从全血细胞群体中分离稀有细胞的系统及其应用,特别涉及一种大容量、在线式、低溶血性从血液中收集循环肿瘤细胞的系统及其应用。
稀有细胞是指生物体液样本(包括血液、胸水、腹水、尿液、脑脊液等)中的一些非典型细胞。研究表明,对稀有细胞的收集及利用其完成NGS分析,对找到疾病潜在治疗机理、病理机制及靶向药物开发具有重要指导意义。目前血液中稀有细胞检测研究方法主要有流式分选技术、形态分离方法、密度梯度离心法、膜过滤法和免疫磁性分离技术,如BD FACSAris可以实现细胞高速分选,但流式分选的瞬时激光将损伤所分选细胞,分选活性后细胞活性受损。循环肿瘤细胞(circulating tumor cell,CTCs)是指进入人体外周血的肿瘤细胞。虽然肿瘤患者外周血中CTCs数目极少,一般约10
7数量级血细胞中的CTCs仅为个位数(2-10个/ml),但是CTCs是一种极重要的液体活检、一种判断预后及治疗间期随访的工具。由于循环肿瘤细胞数量极其稀少,对其检测的精准性和特异性要求颇高,而对其进一步的分析就更加困难,因此急需发展能够高效、大通量、快速的循环肿瘤细胞从血液样本中分离出来的便携方法与工具。
人外周血中的循环肿瘤细胞是肿瘤病灶播散进入外周血循环的肿瘤细胞(CTCs)或细胞团(CTM),幸存的CTCs或CTM离开血液循环进入到继发脏器的局部微环境,在各类生长因子的作用下增殖生长并最终可形成转移灶。循环肿瘤细胞是肿瘤血道转移灶的重要来源,而远处转移是导致肿瘤治疗失败、复发及死亡的直接原因之一,然而,只要早期发现和干预将可能大幅降低复发及转移率,因此从血液中检测循环肿瘤细胞越来越引起人们的重视;通过对CTCs的捕获及分析,可以辅助临床医生进行肿瘤转移复发预测以及早期预警,进行患者总生存期(OS)和无进展生存期(PFS)的评估、临床放化疗的疗效监测等,进而具有指导个体化医疗、改善肿瘤患者的生存状态的重要临床意义。
如何更高效和准确的运用循环肿瘤细胞负荷作为潜在预测指标来指导实体瘤患者的病程分期和复发监控,甚至通过CTCs培养获得对化疗药物敏感性信息,已成为癌症研究中一个热门及重要的课题。
但是,要想实现临床诊断或者对CTC进行实验室分析的前提是能够获取足够的CTC细胞。由于CTCs在外周血中每10
6~10
7个单核细胞仅含有1个CTCs,因此对CTCs检测技术的灵敏度和特异度均提出了极高要求。目前各种CTCs的检测方案主要包括CTCs分离和富集系统,以及CTCs检测和鉴定系统。
其中CellSearch
TM系统是最具代表性的CTCs分离收集系统,已被美国FDA批准应用于检测转移性乳腺癌循环肿瘤细胞的检测,CellSearch
TM系统运用标记有针对EpCAM抗体的磁性颗粒进行血液中循环肿瘤细胞的捕获,但该系统仅对抽取的10ml血液进行检测,相对于全身循环血液,更多潜在的循环肿瘤细胞没有被检测,存在样本的选择性偏移,且该方 法检测的样本已在体外静置数小时,细胞处于低氧甚至缺氧状态,此时捕获的循环肿瘤细胞已丧失活性,难以进行信号通路与功能性等分析,无法对其进行体外培养、单细胞测序等工作。
近年来通过将微流控芯片技术与抗体捕获相结合发展出了一系列的循环肿瘤细胞芯片捕获技术。微流控细胞免疫芯片的方法是通过微流控装置(micro-fluid device)检测CTCs,该检测方法具有极高的特异性、敏感性、可重复性等特点,捕获的CTCs具有细胞活性,可分离,并用于细胞培养和其他各种下游技术研究,是CTCs临床应用价值研究的一种全新高效的方法。但是普通微流控细胞免疫芯片每次检测的血样体积较小,仍然存在样本的选择性偏移等缺陷。
CTC的识别和表征可为研究、监测和最终改变转移过程提供了机会。然而,从血液中分离CTC而不造成破裂或其他损伤是困难的。大多数现有微流体系统的主要限制是,装置效率受到装置施加在血细胞和CTC上的剪切应力的限制。太大的剪切应力将破坏血细胞和CTC。当CTC破裂时,目标分离物(CTC本身)流失,CTC内部组分散落到流体中。当血细胞(主要是白细胞)破裂释放的细胞内物质进一步复杂化血液内的物种间的非特异性相互作用,使高纯度CTC提取变得更加困难。一些现有装置已经试图通过使用低通道微流体装置来减小剪切应力来避免破坏细胞,包括血细胞和CTC。然而,低通道导致流过通道的流体体积减小,进而导致非常低的流速。这样的装置不足以快速处理大量的血液以使其实用和有用。鉴于血液中未损伤CTC的极低丰度,快速处理大量(7-30mL)的血液是高产率分离完整CTC的先决条件。目前无论哪种体外CTCs收集分离装置,均不能对全身血液进行全筛选分析,均存在血液采集样本量少,CTCs收集数量不足,样本可能存在选择性偏移等问题。将现有的外置的CTCs收集分离装置在线接入体内血液循环则可能导致对血液中细胞的损伤,存在溶血的风险,装置造成溶血后的血液会产生细胞碎片促进凝血及血液质量下降,从而可能导致潜在的临床风险。因此,需要一种能够接入体内血液循环,在线收集CTCs,同时降低溶血风险,使得处理后的血液符合血液回输标准(1、无严重溶血;2、体外时间不超过6小时;3、不能使用能使红细胞溶血的液体清洗或处理血液)的,简单易行的,在线式大容量、低溶血循环肿瘤细胞收集系统。
本发明的发明人经过创造性劳动,提供了一种满足上述标准的肿瘤细胞收集系统。上述系统具有下列优点:1、在保障CTC捕获效率的同时,保障血液流动力学及血液中细胞状态,满足血液回输标准;2、采用对微流控芯片小范围给与抗凝剂,与全身抗凝相比减少抗凝剂总使用量,降低全身抗凝的风险;3、可以在线接入血液循环系统,扩大血液样本分析量,甚至可以对全身血液进行CTCs细胞扫描,大大降低样本选择性偏移造成的系统误差;4、采用改进的微流控芯片技术,降低对血细胞的损伤,降低溶血风险;5、通过模拟心脏收缩的仿生泵为系统提供循环动力,减少对血细胞的挤压和剪切;6、可以将通过基于微流控芯片技术捕获到的循环肿瘤细胞无损的取出,进行分析或体外培养,将能更体现循环肿瘤细胞在肿瘤复发、耐药预测等发面的作用;7、本发明的系统不仅可以在线体外循环捕获稀有细胞,也可以离线实现流体的体外循环,从而提高捕获效率。8、本发明的系统不仅可以用于捕获血液中的稀有 细胞,还可以用于捕获其他生物流体中的各种细胞,或者细胞组分。

在一个实施方案中,在弹性内胆的入口和出口处连接单向阀,模拟心脏瓣膜的功能,实现了血液的单向流动,避免在循环过程中出现血液反流现象,以更好地保护血液内的血液细胞。

在一个实施方案中,所述缓控释放器可以采用现有技术中常规医用镇痛泵。整体装置采用医用级塑料,体现便携式及具备匀速释放肝素钠性能,保障微流控芯片组环境内抗凝。
本公开所述的微流控芯片组根据实际采血量需要,采用串联或并联方式接入本系统。血液经血管引导出后进入本公开循环动力系统获得体外循环动力,并在远端分叉为一个或多个并联导管,分别接入微流控芯片组及旁路中,并在进入微流控芯片组后设置限流阀。连接方式见图3。优选地,所述限流阀为三通限流阀。通过设置旁路管道,使得可以方便调节通过组分捕获室的流速和压力,不容易对血细胞产生较高的剪切力,防止溶血,并且不容易造成管路堵塞。
将微流控芯片或芯片组接入血液循环系统,抗凝剂缓控释放器以三通管形式接入。抗凝剂缓控释放器内是一个具有弹性的自动收缩泵,恒定速度收缩挤压出抗凝剂,保障抗凝剂匀速泵出;并在抗凝器装置内安置单向阀,阻止微流控内血液循环回流入抗凝器内;抗凝器内含肝素钠抗凝剂。设置抗凝剂缓控释放器使得抗凝剂泵出速率为定值,并根据所需采集血液总体积调整输出量;打开输注泵开关后,泵体工作,持续恒定量泵出抗凝剂。抗凝剂与循环血液混合后通过微流控芯片微通道,与表面负载的抗体接触,并利用微通道表面负载的抗体与循环肿瘤细胞表面特异性抗原的结合将循环肿瘤细胞从血液样品中捕获并固定在微通道表面上,持续循环收集1-10小时。

本公开所述的低溶血性经过“分光光度法”检测的经抗凝后血液通过本公开芯片后的所测定的红细胞溶血情况进行验证(图4)。
与现有技术相比,本发明具有以下的优点和特点:
1、现有系统仅分析少量血液样本,相对于全身4000ml总血量,系统抽样量太小,可能造成选择性偏移错误和假阴性率,本发明抽样样本可以覆盖全身血液,解决了目前CTC收集方案无法对全身血液进行扫描检测的问题,大大降低样本选择性偏移造成的系统误差;2、相比于基于靶向多肽循环肿瘤细胞捕获方法及微流控芯片,本发明无需在收集CTC之前进行红细胞裂解,相反更是要在收集CTC过程中对红细胞进行保护;3、本发明中的链霉亲和素-生物素复合物组合可被细胞清洗液打断,能将通过基于微流控芯片技术捕获到的循环肿瘤细胞无损的取出进行进一步分析或体外培养,将能更好的发挥循环肿瘤细胞的作用。4、微流控芯片组泳道出入口及连接管道出入口均设计为光滑过渡的曲线形状,避免了系统内部结构对血液细胞造成的潜在损伤;5、扰流柱微阵列既增加了与血液接触的表面积又防止对血细胞的机械损伤,相比现有CTC检测或血液细胞清除装置,本专利设计的扰流柱芯片更适用于在线式的血液收集系统,以芯片组形式进行血液采集保障CTC高效采集,并减少了血液溶血现象发生,保障了循环后血液的质量。6本发明的系统不仅可以在线体外循环捕获稀有细胞,也可以离线实现流体的体外循环,从而提高捕获效率。7、本发明的系统不仅可以用于捕获血液中的稀有细胞,还可以用于捕获其他生物流体中的各种细胞,或者细胞组分。
