摘要:

存在于血液中的循环肿瘤细胞(circulating tumor cell,CTC)在癌症的复发与转移中发挥重要作用,因此对循环肿瘤细胞的捕获已成为当前癌症研究的关键问题。抗体依赖性免疫磁珠捕获CTC的方法具有操作简便、快捷等特点,但存在样本量需求大和制备成本昂贵等问题。拟采用一种新型磁珠—等离子体修饰的烯壳氮化铁纳米磁珠(graphene-coated iron nitride magnetic beads, G@FeN-MB)开展捕获肺癌循环肿瘤细胞的初步研究。G@FeN-MB由多层石墨烯包覆,内核为氮化铁,与常用的氧化铁内核相比具有更强的磁响应性。石墨烯作为磁珠包覆壳层,相比市面上磁珠常用的SiO2壳层具有更低的质量、更高的稳定性和更好的生物相容性。将氨基烯壳氮化铁磁珠与羧基烯壳氮化铁磁珠分别通过直接吸附法和碳二亚胺法制备2种链霉亲和素磁珠,并偶联CTC表面标志物上皮细胞黏附分子(epithelial cell adhesion molecule,EpCAM)的抗体制备氨基免疫磁珠(amino immuno magnetic bead, AIMB)与羧基免疫磁珠(carbaxylic immunomagnetic bead, CIMB)。结果显示,2种免疫磁珠均可捕获A549细胞,AIMB的捕获效率略高于CIMB;为了模拟CTC捕获环境,取健康人血与A549细胞混合制备不同浓度的细胞混液,并利用捕获效率更高的AIMB捕获人血A549细胞,计算被捕获的A549及捕获效率,结果显示,AIMB捕获效率从66.25%~81.50%不等。研究结果证明了基于G@FeN-MB制备免疫磁珠方法的可行性,得到的AIMB可以用于肺癌CTC分选,展现出其应用于临床研究的前景。

Abstract:

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) present in the blood play important roles in cancer recurrence and metastasis, so the capture of CTCs has become a key issue in current cancer research. The method of using antibody-dependent immunomagnetic beads to capture CTCs has the characteristics of simple operation and rapidity, but there are problems such as large sample size requirement and high preparation cost. This study intended to use a new type of magnetic bead-plasma-modified graphene-coated iron nitride magnetic beads (G@FeN-MB) to carry out a preliminary study on the capture of circulating tumor cells in lung cancer. G@FeN-MB is covered by multi-layer graphene, and the core is iron nitride, which has stronger magnetic response than the commonly used iron oxide core. Graphene used as a magnetic bead coating shell has lower mass, higher stability and better biocompatibility than the SiO2 shell commonly used for magnetic beads on the market. In this study, two kinds of streptavidin magnetic beads were prepared by direct adsorption method and carbodiimide method respectively, and coupled with CTCs surface markers epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) antibody preparation amino immunomagnetic beads (AIMB) and carboxylic immunomagnetic beads (CIMB). The results showed that both kinds of immunomagnetic beads could capture A549 cells, and the capture efficiency of AIMB was slightly higher than that of CIMB; in order to simulate the CTCs capture environment, healthy human blood was mixed with A549 cells to prepare cell mixtures of different concentrations, and the capture efficiency was higher by using AIMB captures A549 in human blood, and calculated the captured A549 and capture efficiency. The results showed that the capture efficiency of AIMB ranged from 66.25% to 81.50%. The feasibility of the method of preparing immunomagnetic beads based on G@FeN-MB was proved, and the obtained AIMB can be used for the sorting of lung cancer CTCs, showing the prospect of its application in clinical research.
