Problems solved by technology

After CPT2 F352C mutation, the function of CPT2 enzyme is defective, long-chain fatty acids cannot be effectively transported and participate in oxidative phosphorylation, ATP production is reduced, and the concentration of acylcarnitine in peripheral blood is significantly increased, resulting in a series of energy and metabolic disorders
[0004] Children with severe EV71 encephalitis with CPT2 F352C mutation have significantly lower CPT2 activity and ATP levels in the hyperthermia stage than in the convalescent stage, that is, CPT2 F352 mutation is an important risk factor for brain injury after EV71 infection, because of its thermal instability, infection and high fever lead to CPT2 Mutant enzyme activity decreased, ATP decreased, and the resulting cytokine storm, oxidative stress, etc. aggravated the damage of the host blood-brain barrier, and the damage of blood-brain barrier endothelial cells could further stimulate the production of cytokines and inflammatory cells. Aggregation, which aggravates brain damage
However, it is not yet possible to detect children with severe EV71 infection clinically at present, so that effective measures can be taken to give active preventive treatment at an early stage

Embodiment 1

[0158] The effect of CPT2 F352C mutation on ATP level and CPT2 enzyme activity was studied at the astrocyte level.

[0159] (1) Construction of CPT2 F352C mutant astrocyte model:

[0160] The CPT2 F352C point mutation astrocyte model was constructed by CRISPR / Cas9 technology. Through electroporation of Cas9-CPT2 sgRNA plasmid and donor plasmid, the sequence near the target site on the genome is specifically cut by cas9 and repaired by homologous recombination under the guidance of the template donor plasmid, thereby introducing the mutation site. Compared with virus-mediated gene knockout, the advantage of plasmid electroporation is that there will be no random insertion of the genome. The specific route is as follows:

[0161] S1: For the CPT2 gene, according to the principle of being as close to the editing target as possible, design the guide RNA sequence of the genome of the target site, as shown in SEQ ID NO.3, and perform in vitro transcription to obtain the guide RNA;...

Embodiment 2

[0170] To study the effect of CPT2 F352C mutation-induced dysfunction on severe EV71 infection in mice.

[0171] By comparing human and mouse CPT2 sequences with the NCBI database, it was found that both human (NP-00089) and mouse (NP-034079.2) CPT2 proteins have 658 amino acids, and 94% of their amino acid sequences are identical At the same time, it is confirmed that the amino acid at position 352 in mice is the same as that in humans. Phenylalanine (F) is located in the structure of Choline / Carnitine o-acyltransferase (Choline / Carnitine o-acyltransferase), which may inhibit the enzyme of CPT2. activity plays an important role.

[0172] (1) Construction of CPT2 F352C mutant mice

[0173] 1) Guide-RNA site and Oligo Donor DNA design and synthesis

[0174] S1: Use Zhang Lab's online design software for guide-RNA design: use http: / / crispr.mit.edu / to design a guide-RNA targeting the 4th exon of CPT2, marked as gRNA1, and the sequence is as SEQ ID NO. 4, the guide-RNA sequenc...

Embodiment 3

[0281] Validation at the human level using PBMCs from patients with CPT2 F352C mutation

[0282] (1) Collect blood samples from healthy people and blood samples from children infected with EV71. All patients gave informed consent. All the above-mentioned samples were obtained with the consent of the organizational ethics committee.

[0283] (2) ATP level and CPT2 enzyme activity were compared after PBMC of EV71-infected children with CPT2 F352C mutation and children without CPT2 F352C mutation. CPT2 F352C mutation children and non-mutation children's PBMCs were cultured at high temperature for 2 h after EV71 infection. Compared with those without mutation, CPT2 enzyme activity and ATP levels were significantly reduced at high temperature, and the difference was statistically significant.

Abstract

The invention discloses a primer for detecting CPT2 F532C mutation, a kit and a system for screening severe case EV71 vulnerable child patients, and belongs to the field of biomedicine. The technicalscheme comprise design of specific upstream and downstream primers; the system for screening severe case EV71 vulnerable child patients comprises a module 1, a module 2 and a module 3, wherein the module 1 is used for analyzing the detecting result obtained by performing EV71 RNA detection on in vitro samples of a person to be detected; the module 2 is used for further analyzing the detecting result obtained by performing CPT2 F532C detection on the in vitro samples by the kit containing the specific primers when the analysis result of the module 1 is positive; the module 3 is used for primarily screening the person to be detected or candidate to be the severe case EV71 vulnerable child patient when the analysis result of the module 1 is positive. The CPT2 F352C mutation can be timely andfast found; further, the severe case EV71 vulnerable child patient is determined; the positive and effective prevention and treatment is favorably given to the severe case EV71 vulnerable child patient in the early period.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and in particular relates to a primer and a kit for detecting CPT2 F532C mutation and a system for screening severe EV71 susceptible children. Background technique [0002] Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a single-stranded positive-stranded small RNA virus belonging to enterovirus A group and is the most important pathogen causing hand, foot and mouth disease in children. EV71 is highly neurotropic and can cause severe central nervous system damage such as meningitis, encephalitis, brainstem encephalitis and neurogenic pulmonary edema. The enormous pressure and burden imposed on society and families has become an important public health problem, which has drawn the attention and vigilance of countries around the world. [0003] A previous study found that the c.1055T>G / p.F352C (F352C) mutation in exon 4 of the gene encoding carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2) increases the risk of severe EV71 infectio...
