Problems solved by technology

Size-exclusion chromatography can separate EVs from miscellaneous proteins according to their particle size, and the product has high purity but low concentration (the number of EVs per unit volume)
Ultrafiltration separates EVs from miscellaneous proteins in body fluids based on the molecular weight cut-off, but complex components in body fluids can easily clog the filter membrane, and when the filter membrane is damaged, a large amount of EVs will be lost

Abstract

The invention provides an extracellular vesicle separation and enrichment method based on exclusion chromatography and an ultrafiltration technology. The extracellular vesicle separation and enrichment method comprises the following steps: mixing a fluorescent dye with a body fluid, adding a sample to an exclusion chromatographic column, collecting fractions according to fluorescence intensity, combining the fractions, sequentially treating the combined fractions with protease K and RNase A, and finally carrying out ultrafiltration concentration. The exclusion chromatography and the ultrafiltration method are combined to solve the problem of low product concentration of the exclusion chromatography, and the fluorescent dye is introduced as a tracing external reference, so that the fractionof EVs can be accurately positioned, and the EVs loss caused by damage of a filter membrane can be eliminated before entering the next operation. The invention also provides a kit capable of separating and enriching high-purity extracellular vesicles from body fluid. According to the method, the high-purity EVs can be separated from the body fluid without ultracentrifugation, and meanwhile, in cooperation with protease K and RNase A treatment, nucleic acid pollution from non-vesicle sources in the body fluid can be effectively eliminated, so that the nucleic acid purity of the extracellular vesicles is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a method for separating and enriching extracellular vesicles based on size-exclusion chromatography and ultrafiltration technology. Background technique [0002] Cells can secrete vesicles (EVs) with a phospholipid bilayer structure. Because they are rich in nucleic acids, proteins, phospholipids and other biological macromolecules, EVs have broad application prospects in disease diagnosis and treatment. At present, the extraction methods of extracellular vesicles mainly include ultracentrifugation, polymer precipitation, immunocapture, electrostatic adsorption, size-exclusion chromatography, and ultrafiltration. Ultracentrifugation is difficult to meet the needs of clinical testing due to problems such as expensive equipment, cumbersome operation steps, and low recovery rate. The polymer precipitation method is simple to operate and low in cost, but the purity of the product is low...
