一种单分子定量检测方法及检测系统

本申请要求于2019年01月30日提交中国专利局的申请号为CN201910091631.1、名称为“一种单分子定量检测方法及检测系统”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及一种基于单分子计数的定量检测方法及检测系统,可用于蛋白质、核酸以及小分子的超高灵敏度定量检测。
背景技术
生物标志物尤其是与重大疾病相关的生物标志物在人体内的含量与多种生物学过程密切相关。这些生物标志物在疾病发生的早期阶段含量较低,传统方法难以实现准确有效的检测分析。要实现生物标志物(例如DNA、RNA或酶等)的早期准确诊断,需要超高灵敏度的定量检测手段辅助。
传统的检测方法(例如用于蛋白质检测的化学发光法、酶联免疫法、荧光免疫法或者用于核酸检测的荧光定量PCR方法)的检测原理为:基于溶液整体的光学信号进行检测,将检测获得的光强度信号与标准曲线进行对比,从而实现定量检测。然而,由于检测设备均存在一定背景噪音信号,当样品中的靶标分子浓度低至一定程度时,溶液整体的光强度信号将被背景噪声信号淹没,导致在低值区间的偏差变大,难以实现准确的定量分析。因此,由于检测技术原理层面上的限制,这些传统检测方法难以实现高灵敏度的检测分析。
单分子检测或者数字化单分子检测采取与传统检测方法完全不同的检测策略。即,通过对待测分子(蛋白质、小分子或核酸分子)直接标记酶分子、荧光染料分子、或者通过使待测分子扩增来实现单分子级别的信号放大或信号标记,然后,使用检测设备对信号放大后的单分子信号进行读取,直接对待测分子的个数进行统计,最终通过检测所得的待测分子的数量、利用标准曲线校正来实现单分子级别的定量检测。
目前已报道的单分子级别的定量检测主要有下述两种策略:
(1)通过单分子标记技术直接在待测分子上标记荧光分子或具有光、电和磁等信号的纳米材料,使用精密度极高的光、电和磁检测设备进行检测,例如可实现单分子荧光响应的全内反射显微镜、近场显微镜和艾里斑聚焦检测设备(即专利文献1中的美国Singulex公司发明的SMC技术所使用的光学设备)等以及可实现单纳米粒子检测的电子显微镜等。这些检测设备由于需要能够识别出几个甚至单个荧光分子信号,因此对设备精密度的要求极高,造成设备成本极为高昂,严重阻碍了这些技术在科研领域和医疗诊断领域中的应用。
(2)通过信号放大的方式,将极微弱的单分子信号放大到容易被设备检测的水平。目前较常见的是数字化PCR和数字化单分子酶催化技术。数字化PCR中,通过聚合酶链式反应直接将待检测的核酸分子以指数级扩增,通过荧光探针实现信号放大;数字化单分子酶催化技术中,在待检测分子上标记具有高催化效率的酶或催化底物,产生具有荧光特性的产物分子,实现信号放大。通常,信号放大的方法对检测设备要求较低,成本相对可控,因而其应用相对于单分子荧光检测较广。但是,无论是数字化PCR或者数字化单分子酶催化技术,其产物信号均较低。为了提高检测的信背比,通常需要将待测分子分散至体积极小(纳升至皮升级别)的液滴中(参见专利文献2)。这使得该类技术操作繁琐,对操作经验的要求高,需要高精密度的液滴生成辅助设备。
此外,尽管目前针对核酸的单分子级别的检测技术处于快速发展期(主要受益于单分子PCR技术的发展),但本领域中普遍认为与DNA相比,蛋白质的结构比较复杂,难于复制扩增。由于缺乏PCR这类指数级信号放大方法,现有蛋白质检测方法的灵敏度不够高,导致蛋白质的单分子检测技术仍基本处于空白状态,更不用说以常规荧光显微镜即能实现对蛋白质进行单分子检测的技术。
由此可知,现有的单分子检测技术存在检测体系复杂、对检测设备的精密度要求极高、检测试剂的稳定性差、对辅助耗材的精密度要求高、成本难以控制以及无法良好地应用于蛋白质检测等诸多问题。这些问题极大程度地阻碍了单分子检测技术在科研和医疗诊断市场中的应用。

[实施例]
以下,举出实施例和比较例进一步详细地说明本申请,但本申请并不限定于此。
1、原位信号增强纳米粒子的粒径的测定
以二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子为例,将各实施例和比较例中得到的二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子用水稀释1000倍,然后取100μL滴加在洁净硅片表面,晾干,使用小型溅射仪在其表面溅射沉积5nm的铂,使用SEM(日本日立高新技术公司制SU3900)进行成像分析,求出粒径。
以聚丙烯酰胺荧光纳米粒子为例,用纯水将得到的聚丙烯酰胺荧光纳米粒子稀释1000倍,使用马尔文粒度分析仪(Zetasizer Nano S90)测定粒子的粒径。
2、单分子成像
使用常规荧光显微镜例如尼康Eclipse Ti-U荧光显微镜进行单分子成像,此外,也可采用尼康Eclipse Ti系列的其他荧光显微镜、莱卡DMi8荧光显微镜等。
3、标准曲线绘制方法
本申请中,单分子计数模式与荧光强度积分模式的联合使用能够显著提高检测标志物标准曲线的动态检测范围。具体实施方法如下:
在待测分子的浓度较低时,磁珠数量多于与磁珠结合的待测分子数量,因此使用单分子计数模式对不同浓度的待测分子样本进行标准曲线绘制;
当待测分子的浓度超过一定阈值时,一个磁珠表面可能结合有1个以上的待测分子,单分子信号容易叠加,导致检测结果出现偏差,因此更适合使用荧光强度积分模式。
具体而言,当一张成像图片中的单分子数量不超过设定的阈值时,使用单分子计数模式进行标准曲线的绘制;当一张成像图片中的单分子数量超过设定的阈值时,使用荧光强度积分模式,并将总荧光强度面积除以每个分子的平均荧光强度面积,换算为“近似单分子数量”,从而进行标准曲线绘制。
最后,将利用单分子计数模式得到的标准曲线与利用荧光强度积分模式得到的标准曲线合并,并利 用拟合公式进行曲线拟合,绘制完整的标准曲线。

标准曲线的制作
与实施例1的相应步骤同样地进行操作。
3、实验结果
由图4可知,当使用粒径为150nm的二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子时,在检测设备中完全检测不到任何荧光信号,可见该尺寸的二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子无法用于单分子定量检测。由于试剂对样品完全无响应,因此未进行临床样本测试。
比较例2:磁珠法用于人血清中cTnI抗原分子的检测(二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子:粒径为500nm)。
1、制备方法
1.1、二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子的合成和表面羧基化修饰

与实施例1的相应步骤同样地进行操作。
3、实验结果
检测结果如图5所示,可知比较例2中,cTnI的检测下限仅为0.1ng/mL(即100pg/mL),灵敏度较差。比较例2因使用粒径为500nm的粒子,导致检测灵敏度远远低于实施例1。
实施例2:磁珠法用于人血清中cTnI抗原分子的检测(二氧化硅荧光纳米粒子:粒径为350nm)。
