Abstract
Description
[0001] The present invention claims the priority of Chinese patent application No.: 202311477548.0, entitled: Steroid derivatives and methods for their preparation and complete antigen derivatives and methods for their preparation. The contents described in the description and claims of the priority document are fully introduced into the description of the present invention and are regarded as part of the original description of the present invention. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention relates to the technical field of haptens, in particular to steroid derivatives and preparation methods thereof and complete antigen derivatives and preparation methods thereof. Background Art
[0003] A hapten refers to an antigen that can bind to a corresponding antibody to produce an antigen-antibody reaction, but cannot stimulate the human or animal body to produce antibodies alone. It is only immunoreactive and not immunogenic. Haptens have an important influence on the body's functions. For example, hapten steroid hormones have a significant effect on the regulation of human metabolism and immune regulation. The steroid content in the human body reflects the health status, and the content of steroid hormones in the human body is usually determined by immunoassay. Immunoassay requires the development of antibodies against steroids, and steroids cannot induce an immune response to produce corresponding antibodies, so it is necessary to conjugate steroids with carrier proteins to form complete antigens. Furthermore, complete antigens containing steroids can also be coupled with signal substances to form labeled antigens, which are used to detect steroids as analytes in samples in competitive methods.
[0004] However, existing steroid derivatives on the market have poor hydrophilicity and are prone to precipitation when subsequently conjugated with carrier proteins, which in turn affects the performance of the complete antigen / labeled antigen.
[0005] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0125] in, Figure 2 Indicates the precipitation of complete antigen derivatives formed by BSA as a carrier protein. Figure 2 From left to right, there are trace precipitation, obvious precipitation and large precipitation. According to Tables 1 to 3, the steroid derivatives provided by the embodiments of the present invention can significantly reduce the formation of precipitation, thereby improving the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection results.
[0126] Test Example 2
[0127] The complete antigen derivatives obtained by coupling Example 3 and the comparative example (coupling ratio 1:40 and coupling ratio 1:80) were paired with different antibodies to compete for binding to the testosterone quality control product, and the sample detection activity of the two complete antigens was evaluated;
[0128] The specific detection method is as follows:
[0129] 1) The streptavidin is chemically coupled to the magnetic microspheres, and then the conjugate is diluted to 0.1-0.3 mg / ml using a magnetic bead diluent, and the diluent is defined as the Ra component;
[0130] 2) labeling the testosterone antibody with biotin by chemical coupling, and then diluting it to 0.1-0.3 ug / ml using a labeling diluent, and defining the diluent as the Rb component;
[0131] 3) Several complete antigen derivatives to be evaluated are labeled with acridinium ester by chemical coupling, and then diluted to 0.02-0.08 ug / ml using a labeled diluent, which is defined as the Rc component;
[0132] 4) Take 25ul of the sample to be tested and mix with 50ul of Rb component for 5min, then add 50ul of Ra component and Rc component, react for 10min, after 4-5 washes, add acridinium ester excitation solution and use a luminometer to detect the luminescence value;
[0133] 5) Record and summarize the data to form the following attached data, see Figure 1 .
[0134] according to Figure 1 It can be seen that the linearity of the experimental group that is easy to precipitate during the coupling process will deteriorate, the inhibition rate is poor, especially the gradient of the high-value sample is not easy to separate, and the steroid derivative provided in the embodiment of the present invention can reduce specific adsorption and have a higher gradient in the high-value sample.
