Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of biomedical detection reagent manufacturing and reproductive medicine technology, in particular to a fluorescently labeled kit and method for evaluating sperm function and fertilization potential. BACKGROUND
[0002] Male infertility affects about 15% of couples of childbearing age worldwide, and abnormal sperm quality is one of the main reasons. Traditional semen analysis (such as sperm concentration, motility and morphology) is the basis for evaluation, but it is difficult to fully reflect the functional status of sperm, especially the fertilization potential and embryo development support ability. About 30% of patients with unexplained infertility have normal routine semen parameters, highlighting the limitations of existing technologies in functional evaluation.
[0003] Sperm function involves multiple links such as occurrence, maturation, capacitation, acrosome reaction and egg binding, among which the own motility and egg binding capacity are particularly important. Although there are computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA) and in vitro functional experiments (such as zona pellucida binding test), there are still problems such as complex operation, low standardization, insufficient throughput and inability to realize simultaneous detection of multiple parameters.
[0004] With the progress of molecular biology, key proteins such as DEFB126 and CATSPER2 have been confirmed to be closely related to sperm function. There is an urgent need for an integrated kit that can integrate multiple key protein detection, is easy to operate, and the results are quantitative, to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the diagnosis of male infertility and the prognosis evaluation of assisted reproduction.

[0016] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. The following embodiments are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this invention.
[0019] Example 1: Preparation of rabbit anti-human monoclonal antibody (using DEFB126 as an example) The process flow diagram for the preparation of monoclonal antibodies is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the details are as follows: 1. Immunogen preparation: The full-length human DEFB126 protein was recombinantly expressed using an E. coli prokaryotic expression system, and a protein solution with a purity >95% was obtained by Ni column affinity purification and SDS-PAGE verification. 2. Animal immunization: Take 6-8 month old New Zealand white rabbits, emulsify 200μg DEFB126 protein with Freund's complete adjuvant, and inject it subcutaneously at multiple points on the back; booster immunization is given every 3 weeks, for a total of 3 immunizations; 3. Cell fusion and screening: Seven days after the last immunization, rabbit spleen cells and rabbit myeloma cells (such as 240E-W2) were electrofused or PEG-fused using conventional methods; cultured in HAT selective medium, and positive hybridoma cell wells were screened by indirect ELISA using recombinant DEFB126 as the coating antigen. 4. Subcloning and amplification: Positive well cells were subcloned using the limiting dilution method until a stable monoclonal cell line secreting antibodies was obtained; 5. Ascites preparation and purification: Hybridoma cells were injected into the peritoneal cavity of pretreated rabbits to prepare ascites, or hybridoma cells were cultured in large quantities in vitro using a serum-free culture method and the supernatant was collected; rabbit-derived monoclonal antibodies were purified using Protein A or Protein G affinity chromatography columns; 6. Antibody Identification: The purified rabbit anti-human DEFB126 monoclonal antibody titer (immunofluorescence assay) was 1:100; Western blotting results showed a single specific band at the expected molecular weight. Immunofluorescence experiments showed that the signal was localized to the sperm head, and this signal could be completely blocked by the DEFB126 recombinant protein, confirming its binding specificity.
[0020] Following the exact same process and quality control standards, eleven other specific rabbit-derived monoclonal antibodies were successfully prepared and validated.

[0034] After successfully preparing rabbit-derived monoclonal antibodies targeting all twelve key proteins (DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, and MIF), systematic and standardized performance validation was performed to ensure they meet the requirements for high sensitivity, high specificity, and high stability in kit production. The functional association diagram of the core protein biomarker combination is shown below. Figure 2 As shown in the table below, all verification data are presented.
[0035] Table 1. Overview of rabbit-derived monoclonal antibody preparation and performance validation data for twelve key proteins. .
[0036] High titer and high affinity: As shown in Table 1, all twelve antibodies exhibited extremely high titers (all not lower than 1:256,000) and nanomolar (10 -9 M) to Pimoll (10 -11 The high affinity at the M level ensures that even with highly diluted working solution concentrations, a strong and specific signal is generated in subsequent immunofluorescence assays, guaranteeing the high sensitivity of the kit.
[0037] These twelve key proteins form a precisely coordinated network in sperm function: the CATSPER family, together with PMCA4, regulates calcium homeostasis, driving sperm motility and capacitation; IZUMO1, SPACA6, and ACROSIN mediate the acrosome reaction, zona pellucida penetration, and sperm-egg membrane fusion, respectively; SPACA6, DEFB126, and MIF provide triple immune protection, ensuring sperm survival in the female reproductive tract; GPX5 resists oxidative damage, protecting sperm integrity; and ODF2 maintains tail structure, while GRIM-19 and HPBP1 regulate energy metabolism, providing the driving force and structural basis for the entire process. They cover the entire functional chain from motility, capacitation, immune escape to egg fusion; the absence of any protein will cause a break in the functional assessment chain, leading to missed detections or misdiagnosis.
[0038] Excellent specificity: Western blotting results showed that all antibodies recognized only one band at the expected molecular weight in the complex human sperm protein lysate, with no extraneous bands. Cross-reactivity assays further confirmed that each antibody bound only to its corresponding target protein, showing no cross-reactivity with the other eleven proteins. This demonstrates the high specificity of the antibody combination, which is the foundation for achieving precise parallel detection of multiple targets.
[0039] Precise subcellular localization: Immunofluorescence assays confirmed that all antibodies accurately labeled the native locations of their target proteins on sperm, with results fully consistent with existing literature. This demonstrates that antibodies can not only bind to target proteins but also specifically recognize them in near-native cellular structures, which is crucial for functional assessment.
[0040] Batch consistency: The above key indicators were verified for three consecutive batches of production samples for each antibody. The results showed that the batch-to-batch difference was less than 15%, which proved the stability of the production process and the controllability of product quality.
[0041] The above systematic verification data fully demonstrate that the twelve rabbit-derived monoclonal antibody combinations successfully prepared by this invention have reached top-level performance in terms of titer, affinity, specificity, and localization accuracy, fully meeting the core raw material requirements for constructing a high-performance, highly reliable integrated sperm function detection kit.
[0042] Example 2 Assembly of the detection kit The assembly diagram of the test kit is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, assemble according to the specification of 5 servings / box (see Table 2): 1. Antibody aliquoting: Dilute the purified DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, and MIF antibodies to the working concentration (0.05 mg / mL) with PBS containing 1% BSA, and aliquot 150 μL each into brown light-proof tubes.
[0043] 2. Labeling reagent aliquoting: Dilute FITC-goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody and propidium iodide (PI) solution to working concentration and aliquot each into 750μL / vial.
[0044] 3. Slide preparation: Known positive and negative samples of fertile sperm (DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, and MIF) were washed with PBS, fixed with methanol, and then adjusted to a concentration of 50 × 10⁻⁶. 6 / mL. Using a spotting instrument, 1μL of sample was spotted into the A1 (positive control) and B1 (negative control) wells of a 12-well glass slide, dried at room temperature, and then sealed for storage. Three slides were randomly selected from each batch for immunofluorescence staining and analysis.
[0045] 4. Auxiliary reagent aliquots: aliquot 30×PBS concentrated wash buffer into 50mL / bottle; aliquot glycerol for mounting into 3mL / vial; aliquot methanol for fixative into 50mL / bottle.
[0046] 5. Final assembly: Place all components into a custom foam tray, cover with an aluminum foil bag and heat-seal, then affix a label printed with the batch number, expiration date, and storage conditions (-20℃, protected from light).
[0047] Table 2. Components of the kit ; .
[0048] Example 3: Detection using a kit The specific detection process of the kit is as follows: 1. Sample processing: Take 1 mL of liquefied semen, add 6 mL of 1× washing buffer, centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and repeat the washing twice. Finally, resuspend in 1× washing buffer and adjust the concentration to 40-50×10⁻⁶. 6 / mL.
[0049] 2. Kinematic Analysis: A 10 μL sample of fresh semen was placed in a counting chamber, and a 30-second motion video was immediately captured using an optical microscope. The software automatically analyzed the kinematic parameters, including VCL, VSL, VAP, LIN, STR, WOB, ALH, and BCF.
[0050] 3. Smear and morphological analysis: Apply 1 μL of sample to the blank well of a glass slide and dry at 37°C for 30 min. Acquire bright-field images using a 40x objective lens and analyze morphological parameters.
[0051] 4. Immunofluorescence staining: Fix glass slides with methanol for 5-10 min, dry, and select 1-3 primary antibodies for the target proteins according to the detection requirements. Add 10 μL of the corresponding primary antibody to each well and incubate overnight in a humidified chamber at 2-8℃. Wash three times with 1× washing buffer, 5 min each time. Add 10 μL of the corresponding fluorescently labeled secondary antibody to each well and incubate at 37℃ in the dark for 30 min. After washing, add 10 μL of propidium iodide (PI) solution and incubate in the dark for 10 min. Finally, wash and dry.
[0052] 5. Fluorescence Imaging and Analysis: Add mounting medium and cover with a coverslip. Acquire images using a fluorescence microscope in the corresponding channels, photographing at least 200 sperm cells per sample.
[0053] 6. Report Generation: Import the images into the analysis software. The software automatically identifies sperm and calculates the average fluorescence intensity, integrated optical density, and localization rate of the target protein. Combined with kinematic and morphological data, a comprehensive evaluation report is generated.
[0054] The kit exhibits excellent stability: it demonstrates outstanding accuracy, with intra-assay and inter-assay precision (CV%) consistently ranging from 4% to 10%, significantly better than the acceptable standard of 15%, ensuring excellent reproducibility of test results; in terms of accuracy, it shows a high correlation with the gold standard Western blot method (r=0.96), and its prediction accuracy for clinical outcomes reaches over 92%, demonstrating excellent clinical applicability.
[0055] Example 4: Analysis System Integration and Testing Applications This embodiment details the hardware integration, software configuration, and complete process of using the multimodal analysis system for detection. A schematic diagram of the multimodal image analysis software is shown below. Figure 4 As shown.
[0056] 1. Hardware system integration: Fluorescence microscope and ordinary optical microscope, used for acquiring fluorescence images, bright field images and motion videos.
[0057] 2. Software Configuration: Includes "Human Sperm Localization Protein Quantitative Analysis Software" or a similar multimodal image analysis system, supporting: Automatically identify sperm and analyze the fluorescence intensity, integrated optical density, and localization rate of DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, and MIF proteins; analyze sperm morphological parameters in bright-field images; analyze sperm morphological parameters in bright-field images of processed sperm smears acquired by ordinary optical microscopes and sperm motility parameters in motility videos; generate a comprehensive report and compare it with database reference values.
[0058] 3. System testing applications: (1) Sample pretreatment and smear preparation Take a fresh semen sample after liquefaction, add 6 mL of 1× washing buffer (diluted with deionized water at a ratio of 1:29 using 30× concentrated washing buffer), and mix gently. Place the mixture in a horizontal centrifuge and centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes, discarding the supernatant. Repeat the washing process twice: each time, add 6 mL of 1× washing buffer to resuspend the sperm precipitate, centrifuge again, and discard the supernatant. Finally, resuspend the sperm in an appropriate amount of 1× washing buffer and adjust the sperm concentration to 40–50 × 10⁻⁶. 6 / mL (ensure 40–50 sperm are visible under a 40x microscope). Take 1 μL of the adjusted semen sample and spread it evenly in the blank wells of a multi-well slide. Incubate the smear in a 37°C constant temperature drying incubator for 30 minutes to allow it to dry completely.
[0059] (2) Examination by ordinary optical microscope: morphological and kinematic analysis The dried smear was directly observed under a regular optical microscope. 5 μL of physiological saline or a special sperm diluent was placed over the well of the smear, and a coverslip was placed on top to prevent air bubbles. Bright-field images and motion videos were acquired using a 40x objective lens (recording at least 30 seconds is recommended). The images and videos were then imported into the "Human Sperm Localization Protein Quantitative Analysis Software" for the following analysis: a) Morphological parameters: Automatically identify sperm heads and calculate head area, ellipticity, vacuolation ratio, etc. b) Kinematic parameters: Track sperm motility trajectory and quantitatively calculate curvilinear velocity (VCL), linear velocity (VSL), average path velocity (VAP), linearity (LIN), forward momentum (STR), wobble (WOB), lateral swing amplitude (ALH), and whiplash frequency (BCF). c) Generate a preliminary morphological and kinematic analysis report.
[0060] (3) Sample fixation and immunofluorescence staining a) After completing the bright-field detection, immerse the smear in methanol for fixation for 5–10 minutes, remove it and allow it to air dry at room temperature for 5–10 minutes, followed by immunofluorescence staining: b) Primary antibody incubation: Based on the target protein (DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, MIF), add 10 μL of the corresponding primary antibody working solution (including control wells A and B) to each well. Place the slide in a light-protected, humidified chamber and incubate at 2–8°C for at least 8 hours (or 37°C for 1 hour). c) Washing: Remove the glass slide, gently rinse it with 1× washing solution, then immerse it in 3 portions of fresh 1× washing solution for 5 minutes each (you can shake it slightly), and finally rinse it with deionized water for 30 seconds and dry it. d) Secondary antibody incubation: Add 10 μL of FITC-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody to each well and incubate at 37°C for 30 minutes in a light-protected humidified chamber; e) Wash again: Wash and dry; f) Nuclear counterstaining: Add 10 μL of propidium iodide (PI) solution to each well and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 15 minutes; g) Final wash: Wash and dry as described above; h) Sealing: Add one drop of sealing glycerin to each well and cover with a coverslip to avoid air bubbles.
[0061] (4) Fluorescence microscopy detection Multichannel fluorescence images were acquired using a fluorescence microscope (such as a Zeiss LSM800 or Nikon C2) under a 40x objective lens: the FITC channel (Ex / Em: 488 nm) was used to detect target proteins, and the PI channel (Ex / Em: 561 nm) was used for nuclear localization. Images of at least 200 sperm cells were acquired from each sample. First, the fluorescence signals of the A and B control wells were checked to ensure they were within the batch-specific reference range. After confirming the system was functioning correctly, full-slide images were acquired.
[0062] (5) Image analysis and report generation Import the fluorescence images into the analysis software and perform the following processing: a) Automatically identify the sperm head region and calculate the average fluorescence intensity, integrated optical density, and localization rate of DEFB126, CATSPER2, ACROSIN, IZUMO1, SPACA6, SPACA6, GRIM-19, ODF2, PMCA4, GPX5, HPBP1, and MIF. b) Combine the results of the previous bright-field analysis to generate a comprehensive report, including morphological, kinematic, and protein expression data; c) Compare the results with the reference interval in the database and output the final evaluation report.
[0063] Note: All washing steps must use freshly prepared 1× washing solution and cannot be reused. Strictly avoid light during operation to prevent fluorescence quenching.
[0064] 4. Formula calculation: (1) Sperm head detection algorithm PI positive sperm identification formula: I_PI(x,y) ≥ T_PI = μ_background + 3σ_background; in: I_PI(x,y): Pixel intensity of the PI channel; T_PI: PI positive threshold; μ_background: Average intensity of the background area; σ_background: Standard deviation of background area intensity; Head shape screening criteria: A_min ≤ A_head ≤ A_max; 0.7 ≤ E_head = (4πA_head) / (P_head²) ≤ 1.0; in: A_head: Head area (pixels); P_head: Head perimeter (pixels); E_head: Head ellipticity.
[0065] (2) Sperm tail segmentation algorithm Tail recognition formula: L_tail ≥ L_min; W_tail ≤ W_max; S_tail = L_tail / W_tail ≥ S_min; in: L_tail: Tail length; W_tail: Tail width; S_tail: The aspect ratio of the tail.
[0066] (3) Green fluorescence expression analysis Fluorescence intensity calculation formula: FI_green = (1 / N)∑[I_green(x,y) - I_background]; FI_green: Average fluorescence intensity; N: Number of pixels in the sperm head; I_green(x,y): Pixel intensity of the green channel; Determination of positive fluorescence: FI_green ≥ T_positive = μ_negative + Kσ_negative; in: T_positive: Positive threshold; μ_negative: Average fluorescence intensity of the negative control; σ_negative: Standard deviation of fluorescence intensity in the negative control; K: Confidence coefficient (usually taken as 2-3).
[0067] (4) Key statistical indicators Total sperm count: N_total = ∑[I_PI(i) ≥ T_PI]; Expressing sperm count: N_expression = ∑[FI_green(i) ≥ T_positive]; Expression rate: R_expression = (N_expression / N_total) × 100%; Average fluorescence intensity: MFI = (1 / N_expression)∑FI_green(i).
[0068] Example 5: Criteria for Interpreting Reagent Kit Detection Results After testing sperm samples using this kit, key indicators need to be quantitatively analyzed to assess sperm function. The test results are primarily based on two core indicators: expression rate (localization rate) and average fluorescence intensity. By comparing with clinically validated reference ranges, the performance of sperm samples on each target protein can be categorized into three levels: excellent, good, and needing improvement.
[0069] The definitions of each level are as follows: Excellent: The protein expression level is highly consistent with that of sperm with high fertilization potential, indicating that it has excellent self-motility and ability to combine with the egg.
[0070] Good: Protein expression levels are within an acceptable range, but there may be slight functional defects. It is recommended to combine this with other clinical indicators for comprehensive evaluation.
[0071] Needs improvement: The protein expression level is significantly lower than the reference range, suggesting that the protein may have a functional defect, which is a high-risk factor for decreased fertilization potential.
[0072] Table 3 below details the specific interpretation criteria for twelve key proteins.
[0073] Table 3: Interpretation Criteria for Fluorescence Detection Results of Key Sperm Proteins ; .
[0074] Comprehensive Interpretation: This table presents independent interpretation criteria for each protein. In actual diagnosis, a comprehensive assessment should be made by combining the expression profiles of multiple proteins. For example, even if a single protein is "good," if multiple key proteins simultaneously show "needs improvement," the overall risk to fertility potential is significantly increased.
[0075] Report generation: The accompanying analysis software will automatically calculate the various indicators for each sample and generate a comprehensive report including grade interpretation and clinical analysis based on this table.
[0076] Dynamic monitoring: This standard can also be used to monitor the efficacy of assisted reproductive treatment. After treatment, the indicator changes from "needs improvement" to "good / excellent", indicating that the treatment is effective.
