Problems solved by technology

At present, there are few types of biomarkers that can diagnose AD, and their sensitivity and specificity are not ideal. Silk protein (Alzheimer-associated neuronal thread protein, AD7c-NTP) (Tapiola T, AlafuzoffI, I-Ierukka S-K, et al. Cerebrospinal fluidβ-amyloid 42 and tau proteins as biomarkers of Alzheimer-type pathologic changes in the brain[J].Arch Neurol,2009,66(3):382-389), they are obviously abnormally expressed in the cerebrospinal fluid of AD patients, but due to the invasiveness of cerebrospinal fluid collection, its application is limited, and whether these markers in blood can be used as biological markers The application of markers in the diagnosis of AD is still controversial, and currently only used as a risk factor assessment for AD

Embodiment approach

[0053] Examples of specific binding agents are peptides, peptidomimetics, aptamers, spiegelmers, darpins, ankyrin repeat proteins, Kunitz-type domains, antibodies, single domain antibodies and monovalent antibody fragments. As a preferred embodiment, the specific binding agent is a FAM170A specific antibody.

[0054] Illustrative, non-limiting examples of nucleic acid sequencing techniques include, but are not limited to, chain terminator (Sanger) sequencing and dye terminator sequencing. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that RNA is typically reverse transcribed into DNA prior to sequencing because RNA is less stable in cells and more susceptible to nuclease attack in experiments.

[0078] Example 1 Screening for Gene Markers Related to Alzheimer's Disease

[0079] 1. Sample collection

[0080] Blood samples from 45 normal people and patients with Alzheimer's disease were collected respectively. All patients gave their informed consent, and all the above samples were obtained with the consent of the ethics committee. The blood samples of 5 normal people and Alzheimer's patients were selected for high-throughput sequencing, and all samples were used for verification.

[0081] 2. Preparation of RNA samples

[0082] RNA samples were extracted using Invitrogen's Blood RNA Extraction Kit. For details, see the instruction manual.

[0083] 3. Quality analysis of RNA samples

[0084] Nanodrop2000 was used to detect the concentration and purity of the extracted RNA, agarose gel electrophoresis was used to detect RNA integrity, and Agilent2100 was used to determine the RIN value. Concentration ≥ 200ng / μl, OD260 / 280 between 1.8 and 2.2.

Abstract

The invention discloses a maker FAM170A for Alzheimer's disease diagnosis and treatment. According to the invention, the high-throughput sequencing is combined with information biology for analysis, the up-regulated expression of FAM170A in a patient with the Alzheimer's disease is discovered for the first time; through QPCR experiments, the up-regulated expression of FAM170A in the patient with the Alzheimer's disease is further proved; meanwhile, the fact that the FAM170A is relevant to the proliferation of the Alzheimer's disease model cells is verified through cell experiments; the resultshows that the FAM170A can be used as a molecular diagnosis and treatment target of the Alzheimer's disease.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a marker FAM170A for Alzheimer's diagnosis and treatment. Background technique [0002] Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease with insidious onset and progressive aggravation. The common clinical manifestations in the early stage are mainly recent memory impairment. As the disease progresses, language dysfunction, disorientation (easy to get lost), emotional bluntness, apathy, emotional changes, inability to take care of oneself, and behavioral changes will appear. As the patient's condition worsens, he will gradually lose his family and society, lose his body functions, and eventually die. Although the rate of progression varies, the typical survival period from diagnosis to death is 3-9 years (Henry W. Querfurth MD, Ph.D., and Frank M. LaFerla, Ph.D. Alzheimer's disease[J].The new engl and journal of medicine. 2010, 2010(362): 329-44.). There are few clea...
