Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of nanomedicine, and particularly relates to an extracellular vesicle nucleic acid nanomedicine delivery system, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Gastric cancer is a disease that seriously threatens human health, and its morbidity and mortality are among the highest. Gastric cancer has the characteristics of early non-recurrence and poor prognosis, and has potential biological and genetic heterogeneity at the molecular level. Existing studies have shown that epigenetic regulation may play an important role in the cause and development of gastric cancer. 6 - methylation of methyladenine nucleotides (m 6 A) is the most common post-transcriptional modification of RNA in eukaryotes, and is involved in basic life activities such as DNA repair, cell differentiation, and cell cycle apoptosis. Existing studies have shown that m 6 A recognition protein YTHDF1 is overexpressed in gastric cancer tissues, and is closely related to abnormal proliferation, distant metastasis and progression of gastric tumor cells. Therefore, the use of siRNA and other gene therapy methods to knock down the expression of YTHDF1 protein can achieve inhibition and treatment of gastric cancer through m 6 A epigenetic regulation. The commonly used siRNA drug carriers (mainly including viruses, polyethyleneimine nanoparticles, and liposomes) have poor selectivity, low tumor targeting ability, can cause serious systemic toxicity and immunogenicity, and other characteristics, which limit their clinical application. Therefore, it is of great significance to use a suitable drug carrier to specifically deliver nucleic acid drugs that can knock down the expression of YTHDF1 protein to gastric cancer cells.
[0003] Extracellular vesicles are vesicular structures produced by cells with a phospholipid bilayer structure, and have good biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and low toxicity. Extracellular vesicles with high expression of CD47 on the surface (RsEVs) can bind to SIRPα on the surface of mononuclear macrophages, avoid phagocytosis by the mononuclear macrophage system, and achieve long circulation. Further modification of the extracellular vesicles with tumor targeting peptides and magnetic resonance contrast agents can achieve targeted delivery to tumor tissues and MRI tracking. By using engineered extracellular vesicles, siYTHDF1 genes that can knock down the expression of YTHDF1 can be effectively delivered to gastric cancer cells, target and regulate epigenetic regulators in gastric cancer to achieve a high-efficiency and low-toxicity treatment strategy for gastric cancer. There is no research on the combination of nanomedicine technology based on extracellular vesicles and m 6 A epigenetic regulation to achieve treatment of gastric cancer. SUMMARY
[0004] Therefore, the present application aims to overcome the defects in the prior art, and provides an extracellular vesicle nucleic acid nanomedicine delivery system, a preparation method and application thereof. 6 A epigenetic regulation treatment related to high systemic toxicity, low tumor targeting and drug efficiency, etc. problems, for through the way of targeting and regulating m 6 A epigenetic factor to achieve tumor treatment provides a new idea, with great clinical application potential.

[0143] Mix 100mg DSPE-DOTA (Xi'an Rixi) with 40mL acetic acid buffer, then add 1mmol Gd(OAc)3 at 50°C and react for 12 hours. After the temperature of the mixture drops to room temperature, centrifuge at 4500g for 10 minutes for purification. The obtained product is washed with acetic acid buffer for 3 times to remove non-chelated Gd 3+ .
[0144] (B) Preparation of PGRsEVs.
[0145] PGRsEVs final product was obtained by adding RsEVs to the system at 37°C for 2 hours, followed by purification using ultracentrifugation to remove unreacted reagents.
[0146] (3) siYTHDF1 was loaded into PGRsEVs obtained from step (2) by electroporation to obtain PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles.
[0147] PGRsEVs and siYTHDF1-01 (target sequence: 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', Guangzhou RiboBio Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) were dissolved in 400 μL of electroporation buffer solution (1.15 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.2), 25 mM potassium chloride, 21% Optiprep) at a weight ratio of 1:1, so that the final concentration of PGRsEVs was not more than 0.5 μg / μL. Then the system was placed in a 4 mm electroporation cuvette, and the cuvette was placed on ice at 4°C for half an hour. Subsequently, the cuvette was placed in a Gene Pulser X-cell electroporator (BioRad, 165-2081) for electroporation, and the electroporation parameters were set as follows: volume, 400 μL; voltage, 400 V; capacitance, 125 μF. The pulse time after electroporation was about 12 to 18 milliseconds. After electroporation, the system was placed in a 37°C incubator for half an hour to one hour to allow the RsEVs to recover, and then it was suspended in 26 mL of RNase-free PBS and subjected to ultracentrifugation (4°C, 150,000 g, 90 minutes) to separate free siYTHDF1 to obtain the final PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1.
[0148] Figure 1 The morphology of the extracellular vesicles from CD47 high expression cells in Example 1 is shown.
[0149] Figure 2 The particle size distribution of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles in Example 1 is shown.
[0150] Example 2
[0151] This example will synthesize the extracellular vesicle nucleic acid nanomedicine delivery system loaded with siYTHDF1-02 and siYTHDF1-03 respectively according to the method of Example 1. The siYTHDF1-02 target sequence used in this example is 5'-GGAAACGTCCAGCCTAATT-3'; the targeting sequence of siYTHDF1-03 is 5'-GCTCAACCGCAGTATCAGA-3', both purchased from Guangzhou RiboBio Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
[0152] Example 3
[0153] This example is used to test the expression of Hsp70, Flotillin-1, CD47 and CD81 proteins of two kinds of nanoparticles RsEVs and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1.
[0154] First, the protein lysis concentration of RsEVs and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 extracellular vesicles was determined. The extracellular vesicle samples for immunoblotting analysis should be resuspended with as little PBS as possible to obtain a higher concentration. Add 20 μL of extracellular vesicle suspension to the protein lysis solution containing 1 / 100 (v / v) protease inhibitors and 1 / 10 phosphatase inhibitors. After vortexing thoroughly, the sample was placed on ice for about 30 minutes of lysis. Then the sample was placed in an ice water bath and ultrasonicated three times using an ultrasonic cleaner. The protein concentration was calculated using the BCA protein determination kit (Solarbio, PC0020) for protein quantification. The lysed extracellular vesicles were mixed with 5x loading buffer buffer (NuPAGE LDS Sample Buffer, 4X, NP0007), heated at 100°C for 5 minutes, and stored at -20°C for use. TM
[0155] The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this example is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3, purchased from Guangzhou RiboBio Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
[0156] Next, Western blotting was used to analyze the expression of different proteins in RsEVs and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles. 10 μg of total protein of extracellular vesicles was added to 10% Tris-HCl gel (Invitrogen), and the total protein was separated by electrophoresis and transferred from the gel to a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane (Invitrogen) using a wet transfer method. After the transfer was completed, the PVDF membrane was washed with 0.1% Tween 20-Tris (TBST) buffer solution, then blocked with 5% (w / v) skimmed milk at room temperature for 2 hours, and then 4 mL of primary antibody dilution buffer (antibody dilution is 5% skimmed milk powder prepared with TBST solution) was added and incubated at 4°C overnight. The membrane was washed with TBST three times (5 minutes each time), and then a secondary antibody dilution buffer (antibody dilution is the same as the primary antibody) connected to HRP was added and incubated for 2 hours, and the membrane was washed with TBST three times again (5 minutes each time). Finally, the PVDF membrane was placed in a gel imager (Bio-Rad, USA) and developed on the membrane (Solarbio) for exposure.
[0157] Figure 3 The expression of Hsp70, Flotillin-1, CD47 and CD81 proteins in RsEVs and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles in Example 3 is shown. As shown in Figure 3 RsEVs highly expressed Hsp70, Flottlin-1, CD81 extracellular vesicle characteristic proteins (GADPH as internal control), and also highly expressed CD47 protein on the surface. The PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles obtained by engineering modification of ReEVs did not change the expression of Hsp70, Flottlin-1, CD81 and CD47 proteins on the surface. It is indicated that the process of obtaining PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles by engineering modification of ReEVs does not change the expression level of RsEVs related proteins.

[0159] In this example, the expression of CD47 on the surface of macrophages, CD47 highly expressed macrophage stable strains and induced pluripotent stem cell derived extracellular vesicles was determined according to the method of Example 3.

[0161] Example 5 In this example, the expression of CD47 on the surface of macrophages, CD47 highly expressed macrophage stable strains and induced pluripotent stem cell derived extracellular vesicles was determined according to the method of Example 3.
[0162] This embodiment is used to test the uptake of RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles by MGC-803 and HGC-27 gastric cancer cells.
[0163] MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells were cultured in confocal dishes (4 x 10 5 cells / well) overnight, and then 10 μL of RsEVs and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 (same concentration of extracellular vesicles: 1 x 10 10 particles / mL) were added respectively for 1 hour and 12 hours (the siYTHDF1 used in this experiment was Cy5 fluorescently labeled and could be used to indicate the distribution of the engineered extracellular vesicle drug delivery system in gastric cancer cells). The MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells were washed with PBS, stained with DAPI for 15 minutes, and then observed for uptake of extracellular vesicles by single-photon confocal microscopy (Zeiss, Germany) after washing. When analyzing the uptake, the DAPI fluorescence indicating the cell nucleus and the Cy5 fluorescence indicating the distribution of the engineered extracellular vesicle drug delivery system in cells were analyzed by merging.
[0164] Figure 5 The uptake of RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles by MGC-803 and HGC-27 gastric cancer cells in Example 5 is shown. DAPI was used to stain the cell nucleus; siYTHDF1 was Cy5 fluorescently labeled and could be used to indicate the distribution of the engineered extracellular vesicle drug delivery system in gastric cancer cells; and Merge was the combined analysis of DAPI fluorescence indicating the cell nucleus and Cy5 fluorescence indicating the distribution of the engineered extracellular vesicle drug delivery system in cells.
[0165] As shown in Figure 5 , both MGC-803 and HGC-27 gastric cancer cells showed stronger Cy5 signals after incubation with PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1, indicating that more nanoparticles were taken up by the cells. The experimental results show that the nanoparticles modified with c(RGDyC) peptides can bind to the α v β3 integrin on the surface of tumor cells, enhancing the targeting ability of the nanoparticles to gastric cancer cells. The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this embodiment is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', purchased from Guangzhou Ribobio Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
[0166] Example 6
[0167] This example is used to test the delivery efficiency of siYTHDF1 of three kinds of nanoparticles Lipo-siYTHDF1, RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 in MGC-803 and HGC-27 two strains of gastric cancer cells (PBS, RsEVs and siYTHDF1 as controls).
[0168] MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells were placed in CLSM culture dishes (4x10 5 cells per well), after 12 hours of culture, PBS, RsEVs, siYTHDF1, Lipo-siYTHDF1, RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles were added respectively (the volume of all samples was 80 μL, and the number of RsEVs contained was the same, 1x10 10 particles / mL), and incubated for 1 and 12 h respectively. Then the MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells were washed with PBS and stained with DAPI for 15 minutes, and finally the uptake of siYTHDF1 was detected by flow cytometry.
[0169] Figure 6 The delivery efficiency of siYTHDF1 of three kinds of nanoparticles Lipo-siYTHDF1, RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 in MGC-803 and HGC-27 two strains of gastric cancer cells (PBS, RsEVs and siYTHDF1 as controls) is shown in Example 6.
[0170] Figure 6 The flow cytometry results show that the uptake rate of free NC-siYTHDF1 by MGC-803 and HGC-27 two strains of gastric cancer cells is negligible, the delivery rate of siYTHDF1 by Lipo transfection reagent is 35.7%-40.3%, the delivery rate of siYTHDF1 by RsEVs is 64.4%-70.9%, which confirms that the extracellular vesicle as a delivery system can significantly improve the delivery efficiency of siYTHDF1. When the RsEVs are engineered and modified, the delivery efficiency is further enhanced to 88.6%-96.8%, which is due to the modification of homing peptide c(RGDyC) that enhances the uptake of nanoparticles by two strains of gastric cancer cells. The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this example is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', purchased from Guangzhou Ribo Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

[0175] Figure 7 The Western blot results show that the YTHDF1 protein level of the RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 groups is significantly reduced, indicating that the constructed engineered extracellular vesicle drug delivery system can deliver siYTHDF1 to two strains of gastric cancer cells and successfully knock down the expression level of YTHDF1 protein. The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this example is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', purchased from Guangzhou Ribo Bio-technology Co., Ltd.

[0181] MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells were seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 1 x 10 4 cells / well and cultured overnight. Then different samples (PBS, RsEVs, NC-siYTHDF1, Lipo-NC-siYTHDF1, RsEVs-NC-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-NC-siYTHDF1) (the amount of siYTHDF1 was 2 pmol per well) were added to the two strains of gastric cancer cells, and incubated for 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. After incubation, 20 μL of CCK8 was added to each well and incubated for 2-3 hours, and the absorbance was measured at 490 nm using a microplate reader.

[0183] Figure 9The results showed that RsEVs and RsEVs-NC-siYTHDF1 groups had no obvious toxic side effects on both MGC-803 and HGC-27 gastric cancer cells, while the RsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles could well inhibit the proliferation of the two gastric cancer cells, and the inhibition of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles on tumor cell proliferation was further enhanced. The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this example is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', purchased from Guangzhou Ribo Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

[0185] This example is used to test the nuclear magnetic imaging (MRI) of the tumor site of the MGC-803 tumor cell-bearing mice after intravenous injection of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles in the tail vein of the mice, at 0h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h and 72h after injection.
[0186] In order to detect the MR imaging of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles in mice in vivo, the tumor-bearing mice were intravenously injected with PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 nanoparticles (Gd was 0.04 mmol / kg), and MR images were collected at different time points (0h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h and 72h) after injection using a 7.0T small animal nuclear magnetic resonance imaging instrument (BioSpec 70 / 20USR, Bruker, Germany).

[0191] To study the anti-tumor effect of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1, we first established a subcutaneous cell line xenotransplantation model on Balb / c nude mice using MGC-803 cells and randomly divided them into 5 groups (six in each group). Each group of mice was injected with physiological saline (Control), RsEVs, RsEVs-NC-siYTHDF1, RsEVs-siYTHDF1 and PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 (the amount of extracellular vesicles injected in each group was 1 x 10 11 μL, 120 μL; the amount of siYTHDF1 used was 3 μg) via the tail vein. Drug treatment was performed every other day, and the long diameter (a) and short diameter (b) of the tumors of the nude mice in each group were measured using a vernier caliper, and the tumor volume was calculated. The volume calculation formula: V = ab 2 / 2. The siYTHDF1 target sequence used in this embodiment is 5'-GGAACAACATCTATCAGCA-3', purchased from Guangzhou Ribobio Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

[0193] Figure 11 The results show that the tumor volume inhibition effect of PGRsEVs-siYTHDF1 is the most obvious compared with other treatment groups, and the tumor picture size and weight are significantly lower than other groups after 28 days of treatment, which proves the treatment effect of the extracellular vesicle nucleic acid nanodrug delivery system on gastric cancer.
