Problems solved by technology

However, since mammals themselves do not express methionase, the way of exogenous administration has certain side effects, which often cause the body's immune response. Therefore, it is a better way to explore the endogenous expression of methionase. choose

Embodiment 1

[0036] Example 1: Containing MEGL expression vector construction

[0037] The MEGL / 3xFLAG sequence used is as follows (SEQ ID NO.1):

[0038]

[0039] The viral vector comes from Saiye Biotechnology, and the Gateway cloning technology is mainly used to construct the expression vector. Gateway technology consists of two reactions, BP and LR. The BP reaction uses a recombination reaction between an attB DNA fragment or an expression clone and an attP donor vector to create an entry clone. The LR reaction is a recombination reaction between an attL entry clone and an attR destination vector. details as follows:

[0040] 1) BP reaction construction entry vector (Entry Vector): mix the Gateway expression vector (attB1-MEGL-attB2 sequence) containing the target gene with the donor vector (pDONR) with the attP1-ccdB (suicide gene)-attP2 sequence, Add BP Clonase enzyme mixture containing Int and IHF, incubate at 25°C for 1 hour, and treat with proteinase K at 37°C for 10 minutes. ...

Embodiment 2

[0043] Example 2: Preparation of overexpressed MEGL virus (taking lentivirus as an example)

[0044] 1) Virus packaging: the day before transfection, inoculate 293T cells into a culture dish, and the number of inoculated cells should be 90%-95% confluent on the day of transfection; on the day of transfection, remove the culture medium from the 293T cells , add 10mL (10cm petri dish) culture medium for virus packaging. Prepare calcium phosphate-DNA precipitation as follows: A. Calcium-DNA mixture: first add CaCl to a 5mL sterile EP tube 2 , and then add the auxiliary plasmid and the target gene plasmid respectively and mix well. B. Place the centrifuge tube containing the calcium-DNA mixture on a vortex shaker to vortex the liquid, then add 2×HBS drop by drop, vortex for a few seconds after the drop, and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour the calcium phosphate-DNA suspension into the cell culture medium of the above cells, mix the medium gently, and place it in a 37°C, 5% CO2 satu...

Embodiment 3

[0049] Example 3: Antitumor effect of overexpressing MEGL virus.

[0050] 1. Take the glioma cells U87 and snb19 in the logarithmic growth phase and inoculate them in a 6-well plate. After the cell density grows to about 30%-50%, add the control empty virus vector according to MOI=10 (hereinafter both defined as V group) and overexpressed MEGL lentivirus (defined as group M below), and added a final concentration of 5 μg / mL Polybrene reagent to aid in staining. After 24 hours, replace it with normal medium for culture, and after continuing to culture for 48 hours, use a final concentration of 2 μg Puromycin / mLl was screened, and the fluorescence intensity and ratio of the cells were observed by a fluorescence microscope every 24 hours. The amount of cells with red fluorescence exceeding 95% indicated that the screening was successful. Cell screening results such as figure 2 shown.

[0051] 2. Using Real time PCR and Western Blot to identify the expression of methionase in t...

Abstract

The invention discloses application of a methionine enzyme gene therapy in treatment of malignant tumors. According to the gene therapy, a virus is used as a carrier, an exogenous methionine enzyme gene is inserted, an expression system of methionine enzyme is formed in a tumor, and an endogenous mechanism is provided for further consumption of methionine. In-vitro cytology experiments show that the methionine enzyme gene therapy significantly reduces the level of intracellular methionine, effectively inhibits proliferation of tumor cells, and can be applied to preparation of drugs for targeted therapy of malignant tumors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of tumor treatment and gene therapy in the field of medical technology, in particular to the application of methionase gene therapy in targeted treatment of malignant tumors. Background technique [0002] Malignant tumor is a common disease that seriously threatens human life and health. According to the latest statistics in 2015, the mortality rate of malignant tumors accounts for 23.91% of all deaths among residents. At present, there are many means and methods for the treatment of malignant tumors, such as surgery, chemical drug therapy, radiation therapy, etc. These treatments have certain curative effects on malignant tumors, but each has serious adverse reactions, limited curative effect, and prone to resistance. Therefore, seeking new targeted and precise treatment methods, such as gene therapy, is the key to the treatment of malignant tumors. Due to the rapid growth of tumor cells, the demand for nutrients an...
