Problems solved by technology

In the production process, in addition to the complex procedure, the phenomenon of cell damage and loss of genetic material (DNA) caused by cutting cells during the slicing process often has the following problems: (1) Cells are not fully dispersed before embedding, large pieces Adherent cell clumps not only affect the effect of fixed embedding, but also affect the observation of the results of immunohistochemical experiments; a large number of cells can be broken when scraping cells; (2) cells are not mixed evenly after agarose embedding, resulting in cell density It is very uneven in the embedding block, which will adversely affect the array making and observation; (3) After the processed agarose block is embedded in paraffin, it may not be sliced ​​due to insufficient wax immersion, or residual in the embedding block Large volumes of agarose create numerous cavities, interfering with staining
[0005] There is no report on microarrays of nuclei extracted from paraffin-embedded tissues

Embodiment 1

[0043] 1. Treatment of cultured cells: Adherent cells, human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE1, CNE2, HNE1, HNE2, 5-8F and 6-10B nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines and 6-10B cells transfected with KIAA1173 gene, A total of 7 cell lines were cultured. First, the cultured cells were digested with 0.25% trypsin, washed three times with phosphate buffer, centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 5 min each time, and then washed with 1:3 (volume ratio) methanol and glacial acetic acid solution for 15 min, and adjust the concentration of the cell suspension to 1×10 4 / μl for use.

[0044] 2. Fabrication of the microarray wax film: first make a blank wax block, and then punch holes in the blank wax block with a 0.6mm needle of the tissue microarray instrument, and the number of holes is 7×7. Freeze the prepared wax blocks with holes at -20°C for 30 minutes; cut into 20 μm thick slices, stick them on siliconized glass slides, and bake in an oven at 60°C for 10 seconds.

Abstract

The invention is the preparing method for the micro-array of the cell and the nucleus. The process is: a. the paraffin block with hole is cooled in the -30 to -10 DEG C and cut into the cere which is put on the silicified slide, then heat it in the 55-65 DEG C for 5-15s; b. the cell or the nucleus is dripped into the cere hole; c. baking it at 65 DEG C for 1h, then to remove the paraffin by the xylene to get the micro-array. The process is easy and the array has the big capability, also it can protect the cell or the nucleus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biochips, in particular to a method for making cell and nucleus microarrays. Background technique [0002] Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), mRNA in situ hybridization, and immunocytochemical gene protein detection are commonly used techniques in the field of molecular genetics and molecular biology, and the experimental objects can be cultured cells, fresh tissues or paraffin-embedded tissue. Tissue microarray (tissue microarray, TMA) is a microscopic tissue section formed by arranging dozens to hundreds of tissue samples on the same slide in an orderly manner, also known as a tissue chip (tissue chip). Experiments such as FISH and mRNA in situ hybridization on microarrays have high throughput, and a large amount of data can be obtained in one experiment. Using array technology, high-throughput studies of DNA, RNA, and protein levels can be performed in situ on numerous tumor tissues. Tissue microarray ...
