Problems solved by technology

However, the extremely low content and inherent heterogeneity of CTCs in peripheral blood make it difficult to effectively capture CTCs with high purity.
In the past ten years, different detection and separation technologies have been used to isolate CTCs, such as capture based on affinity molecule antibodies, microfluidics, size separation, immunomagnetic bead separation, nanostructure, etc. These methods mainly rely on a single biomarker EpCAM, but many CTCs undergo EMT transformation during the transfer process, resulting in the loss or reduction of EpCAM expression, so the technology relying on a single antibody EpCAM will reduce the isolation of heterogeneous CTCs

Embodiment 1

[0067] The screening method for N-cadherin aptamers based on engineered cell lines is as follows:

[0068] a) Using the method of gene amplification, amplify the vector containing the human N-cadherin gene sequence to obtain a large number of N-cadherin sequences, and perform gel electrophoresis to confirm that the amplified sequence is correct and cut it Gel purification; then the purified gene sequence was digested, and the pLVX-IRES-Pruo vector was digested at the same time, and the digested fragments were subjected to electrophoresis, and the target sequence and the digested fragments were confirmed to be correct. The vectors were connected overnight, and then the connected plasmids were cloned and transformed, and then sequenced to verify whether the connected plasmids containing the target sequences were correct and whether the target sequences were correctly connected to the corresponding sites of the target vector.

[0069] b) Name the vector containing the target sequ...

Embodiment 2

[0073] N-cadherin cells were used as positive cells, and untransfected CHO / K1 cells were used as control cells for aptamer screening. The specific screening method is as follows: first, 10nmol of the designed screening library m-lib was dissolved in 500ul sterilized water, then denatured at 95°C for 5min, and then immediately placed on ice for 10min. The N-cadherin cells with a confluence of 90% were washed three times with washing buffer, and then the cells were incubated with the screening library at 4°C for 60 min, and then washed with washing buffer, and the washing was carried out at 4°C. Wash for 3 minutes each time, and wash three times. Finally, the cells were scraped off with a cell scraper with 1ml of sterilized water, and transferred to a centrifuge tube. After being treated at 95°C for 10 minutes, centrifuged, the supernatant collected was the enriched library obtained in this round of screening. Then, the screened sequences were amplified by PCR, and ssDNA was pr...

Embodiment 3

[0075] N-cadherin cells were used as positive cells, and CHO / K1 cell line was used as control cells to verify the screening effect. The affinity effect of the 12th-round screening library and the screening library m-lib to cells were investigated respectively. After digesting the cells in good condition, take a certain number of cells and plant them in a special confocal culture dish. After 24 hours, the well-growing N-cadherin and CHO / K1 cells were washed three times with PBS. Then 500nM m-lib and fluorescence-modified twelfth-round screening library and positive cells and control cell lines were incubated at 4°C for 50min, then washed three times with 700ul washing buffer, and then imaged by confocal microscopy. Figure 4 with Figure 5 The confocal results showed that the enrichment effect of sequences with strong binding ability to target cells was better when the screening reached 12 rounds.

Abstract

The present invention discloses an N-cadherin nucleic acid aptamer, the nucleic acid aptamer has the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID No.1 or SEQ ID No.2. Preferably, the nucleotide sequence of the nucleic acid aptamer is shown in SEQ ID No.2. The present invention also provides a screening method for the N-cadherin nucleic acid aptamer. Because the N-cadherin aptamer can specifically bind to circulating tumor cells with high expression of N-cadherin, it can be applied to capture circulating tumor cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an aptamer, in particular to an N-cadherin nucleic acid aptamer, its screening method and its application, such as the application in the separation and identification of circulating tumor cells, belonging to the field of molecular biology. Background technique [0002] Nucleic acid aptamers, also known as nucleic acid aptamers, aptamers, etc., are single-stranded oligos that are screened from artificially synthesized DNA / RNA libraries and can bind to various targets with high affinity and high specificity. Nucleotides. It was first proposed by the two groups of Szostak and Gold almost at the same time. In 1990, Ellington and Szostak reported an RNA fragment that could bind small molecule organic dyes and named it Aptamer. Aptamer (aptamer) refers to the systemic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (Systematic Evolution of Ligands by Exponential Enrichment, SELEX) technology, which is screened from artifici...
