Abstract

A super-resolution optical imaging method based on a single-molecule positioning process is disclosed and used for observing an interaction process between a tumor cell exosome and a normal cell. The method includes (1) extracting the tumor cell exosome by utilizing a kit, (2) respectively labeling a membrane of the tumor cell exosome and a membrane surface receptor of the tumor cell exosome by using a first fluorescent molecule and a second fluorescent molecule, and staining the normal cell by using a third fluorescent molecule, and (3) observing the interaction process between the tumor cell exosome and the normal cell through a super-resolution optical microscope based on the single-molecule positioning process. The method overcomes the problem that exosomes cannot be observed carefully in the prior art due to a diffraction limit, and provides a novel technical means for researching exosome-mediated cancer metastasis mechanisms and for treating and researching cancer metastasis and spreading.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a super-resolution optical imaging method based on a single-molecule localization method, which is used to observe the interaction process between tumor cell exosomes and normal cells, and belongs to biophotonics technology. Background technique [0002] Exosomes are a type of vesicles secreted by cells, with a size of about 30-100 nm. The outer layer of this interesting nano-scale vesicle is a lipid membrane, on which specific signaling molecules are expressed, while the interior contains biomolecules such as proteins and RNA. Exosomes play a very important role in intercellular communication and material exchange. Existing studies have shown that the interaction between exosomes and recipient cells is mainly divided into three types: 1) exosomes bind to the surface of recipient cells through exosome adhesion molecules on the surface of recipient cells; 2) The exosomes directly fuse with the recipient cells; 3) The exosomes ...
