Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biotechnology materials, and particularly relates to a protease treatment reagent and application thereof in enzyme-treated cells. Background Art
[0002] Antibody screening tests are of great clinical significance for guiding compatible blood transfusions and ensuring clinical safety and effectiveness. Alloimmunization against red blood cell antigens can occur during pregnancy, blood transfusion, transplantation, or injection of immunogenic substances, and the frequency of alloimmunization varies greatly among different populations. However, before serological testing, it is often impossible to confirm the presence of unexpected blood type antibodies in the blood. These unexpected antibodies, which react with red blood cell surface antigens, can cause hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTR), hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN), autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), and significantly reduce the survival rate of transfused red blood cells. Therefore, screening for unexpected red blood cell antibodies can aid in the diagnosis of certain diseases and ensure the safety and effectiveness of blood transfusions.
[0003] However, during antibody screening and identification, unexpected antibodies with low titer and affinity are often missed. These missed detections cannot be enhanced by controlling cell concentration, increasing serum volume, or extending incubation time. This is because some blood group systems are mostly heterozygous rather than homozygous, or due to insufficient antigen quantity. Homozygous genes typically encode twice the antigen dose of heterozygous genes, resulting in a weak response or missed detection due to the antigen dose effect. Typical examples include the Rh, Kidd, and Lewis blood group systems. Missed detection can cause severe acute or delayed transfusion reactions, which can be life-threatening. Some enzyme-only antibodies, such as Rh anti-E and anti-e, can only be detected in mediators such as papain or pineapple enzymes, or in combination with these antiglobulins. Although these antibodies are generally clinically insignificant, transfusion reactions have been reported.
[0004] Protease-treated red blood cells are generally used for red blood cell blood type serological testing, including antibody screening and antibody identification. The main principle is that the surface of red blood cells carries a large amount of negative charge, mainly due to the presence of N-acetylneuraminic acid on the sialic acid glycoprotein on the surface of red blood cells. N-acetylneuraminic acid is a carboxyl group with a negative charge. Normal red blood cells carry a large amount of negative charge on their surface, which repels like charges and maintains the distance between red blood cells, making it impossible for the IgG immunoglobulin to bind to antigens on the surfaces of two red blood cells at the same time. Proteolytic enzymes can hydrolyze N-acetylneuraminic acid, reduce the negative charge on the surface of red blood cells, and reduce the distance between red blood cells. IgG immunoglobulins can bind to antigens on the surfaces of two different red blood cells at the same time. Commonly used proteases include: papain, bromelain, fig protease, trypsin, chymosin, pronase, etc. Generally, the above-mentioned proteases need to be pretreated to form a protease solution before treating red blood cells, but the existing protease solutions have the following common defects: (1) Instability: The effect will vary depending on the production batch. When preparing the protease solution, its reactivity must be tested and the incubation time must be standardized to achieve the best effect. (2) Storage issues: The prepared protease solution needs to be stored at -20℃. It should be taken out and dissolved when used. It should not be frozen and thawed repeatedly. After thawing, it can be used effectively for no more than 1 hour at room temperature. (3) To prevent the rapid weakening of the protease during preparation or in a short period of use, or to prevent the protease from being completely dissolved, filtered or the supernatant used, the protease concentration will be increased or the mother liquor will be prepared during preparation. Dilution during use will cause false positives due to excessive protease concentration or activity. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention aims to provide a protease treatment reagent having a stable pH buffer environment and capable of effectively protecting protease activity. The protease solution formed after the protease is pretreated with the protease treatment reagent can be stably stored for a long time for 6 months under a refrigerated environment at 2-8°C. The original enzyme-treated cell production method is converted from a laboratory method to a unified, controllable, and standardized enzyme-treated cell production method, thereby greatly improving the utilization rate of the protease and the success rate of the enzyme-treated cell.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above problems is: a protease treatment reagent, comprising the following components: a buffer, gelatin, pluronic, a chelating agent, L-cysteine, and an antibacterial agent.
[0007] Preferably, the buffer is 0.02 mol isotonic phosphate buffer with a pH of 5.5.
[0008] More preferably, the 0.02M isotonic phosphate buffer solution with a pH of 5.5 is prepared as follows: 2.77g of NaH2PO4•H2O is accurately weighed, dissolved in distilled water and diluted to 100ml to obtain solution A; 0.284g of Na2HPO4 is accurately weighed, dissolved in distilled water and diluted to 100ml to obtain solution B; 94ml of solution A is mixed with 6ml of solution B, and then 900ml of 0.9% sodium chloride solution is added to prepare 0.02M phosphate buffer solution, and the pH is measured and adjusted to 5.5.
[0009] Preferably, the chelating agent is EDTA.2Na.
[0010] Preferably, the antibacterial agent is sodium benzoate.
[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of the gelatin, Pluronic, chelating agent, L-cysteine and antibacterial agent is 0.4-0.6:1.5-2.5:0.9-1.1:0.04-0.06:0.4-0.6.
[0012] More preferably, the mass ratio of the gelatin, pluronic, chelating agent, L-cysteine and antibacterial agent is 0.5:2:1:0.05:0.5.
[0013] Preferably, the protease treatment reagent is prepared by the following steps: weighing L-cysteine, pluronic, gelatin, a chelating agent, and an antibacterial agent and adding them to a buffer; dissolving them at room temperature until they are completely dissolved to obtain the protease treatment reagent; and storing them at 2-8°C.
[0014] Preferably, the protease treatment reagent can be prepared by including ficin, papain or bromelain.
[0015] Another object of the present invention is to provide a use of a protease treatment reagent in enzyme-treated cells, comprising the following steps: (1) Protease pretreatment: Grind the protease repeatedly in a mortar until the particles are fine and there are no obvious large particles. Then add the protease treatment reagent and continue to grind thoroughly. Collect the contents in the mortar and adjust the volume with the protease treatment reagent. After it is completely dissolved, filter it with a 0.22 μm microporous filter membrane to obtain the protease solution. (2) Protease treatment of cells: Wash the red blood cells to be treated with physiological saline three times, discard the supernatant after centrifugation to obtain packed red blood cells, take 0.1 ml of packed red blood cells and add them to 0.5 ml of the above protease solution, mix well; incubate at 37°C for 15 minutes; after the incubation, wash them with physiological saline twice, then wash them once with red blood cell preservation solution, and then use red blood cell preservation solution to prepare a red blood cell suspension with a mass concentration of 3-5%, and store it at 2-8°C for use; (3) Take a clean test tube, add 2 drops of serum to be tested, 1 drop of the above-mentioned enzyme-treated red blood cell preservation solution with a mass concentration of 3-5% and 2 drops of the above-mentioned protease solution into the test tube, mix well; incubate at 37°C for 15 minutes; after the incubation is completed, centrifuge it, take it out and shake it gently to observe whether there is agglutination.
[0016] Quality Control of Protease Solution: (1) Reagent preparation: 1. First, use the protease treatment reagent to prepare ficin, papain, and bromelain into ficin solution, papain solution, and bromelain solution according to the above steps. 2. Anti-Fya: titer ≥4. 3. Control group cells: Fy (a+b-) packed red blood cells washed 3 times. 4. Weak Rh antibodies: such as anti-C, titer ≤16. (2) Fy(a+b-) erythrocytes were incubated with each of the above enzyme solutions at 37°C for 15 minutes, and the Fy(a+b-) erythrocytes treated with and without ficin were detected using the anti-Fya antibody enzyme method combined with the antiglobulin method. If the enzyme-treated Fy(a+b-) still reacted with anti-Fya, the erythrocytes were re-treated, and the incubation time of the erythrocytes with the enzyme was extended by 1 minute. If there was still a reaction, the incubation time was further extended.
[0017] (3) Incubate type O red blood cells with the enzyme solution at 37°C for 15 minutes. Use multiple normal serum samples and test using the enzyme method combined with the antiglobulin method. If more than 2 of the 10 normal sera show a positive reaction, the red blood cells need to be reprocessed and the incubation time of the red blood cells with the ficin enzyme is shortened (the incubation time can be shortened by 1 minute. If there is still a reaction, shorten the incubation time again).
[0018] (4) Low titer (titer ≤ 16) IgG type Rh antibodies (such as anti-C) and heterozygous antigen red blood cells (anti-C selects Cc antigen-positive red blood cells) were used, and the enzyme method combined with the antiglobulin method was used to test the red blood cells treated with and without ficin. Rh antibodies can directly agglutinate red blood cells treated with ficin, but not with red blood cells not treated with ficin. After using indirect antiglobulin reagents, the agglutination of red blood cells treated with ficin is significantly stronger than that of red blood cells not treated with ficin.
[0019] (5) After the red blood cells are treated with ficin, the Fya antigen is destroyed, and the red blood cells treated with ficin will not react with normal serum in a false positive reaction. At the same time, it can also enhance the reaction intensity between the antibodies and antigens of the Rh and Kidd systems.
[0020] A method for determining the potency of a protease solution: (1) Take 11 clean test tubes, add 100 μl of physiological saline to the first 10 test tubes, and add 100 μl of IgG anti-D to the first and 11 test tubes; (2) Pipet the contents of the first test tube to mix, transfer 100 μl of the mixture to the second tube, and pipette to mix; (3) Transfer 100 μl of the contents to the third tube, and dilute the mixture to the tenth tube in the same manner, discarding 100 μl of the mixture. (4) Add 100 μl of the above enzyme solution to the first 10 test tubes and mix. (6) Add 50 μl of 3-5% RhD positive red blood cell suspension to each test tube. (7) Mix well, centrifuge immediately, centrifuge at 1000g for 15 seconds, and take out the result. (8) The result of the 11th test tube must be negative. (9) The enzyme titer is determined and controlled at 32. If the titer is lower than 32, the amount of protease needs to be increased and the enzyme solution needs to be re-prepared. If the titer is higher than 32, the prepared enzyme solution needs to be diluted with enzyme treatment reagent.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: (1) The protease treatment reagent of the present invention has a stable pH buffer environment. Gelatin and Pluronic form a stable protective environment. L-cysteine stabilizes enzyme activity and can effectively protect protease activity. The protease solution formed after the protease is pretreated with the protease treatment reagent can be stably stored at 2-8°C for a long time.
[0022] (2) The protease treatment reagent of the present invention is applicable to ficin, papain, and bromelain commonly used in serological laboratories, without the need to adjust the enzyme concentration, usage method, and pH.
[0023] (3) The protease treatment reagent of the present invention transforms the original enzyme-treated cell method from a laboratory method to a unified, controllable, and standardized enzyme-treated cell production method, greatly improving the utilization rate of protease and the success rate of enzyme-treated cells.
