Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of protein image labeling, and in particular to a non-destructive image labeling method and product of αOlig2 and uses thereof. Background Art
[0002] Protein imaging labeling technology is of great significance in imaging at the cellular, tissue, and in vivo levels. Biotin labeling is the primary method for protein imaging labeling, which involves fluorescently labeling the target protein (antigen or antibody) for fluorescence imaging. Fluorescence imaging has high sensitivity and can perform real-time contrast imaging of the labeled substance through multi-channel fluorescence signal detection. It is particularly widely used in imaging of cellular or superficial tissues. However, due to the low tissue penetration depth and interference from the autofluorescence of living organisms, fluorescence imaging often has poor imaging effects at the in vivo level, especially in deep tissues. Magnetic resonance imaging is an important diagnostic tool in clinical practice, and its imaging has the characteristic of unlimited penetration. However, the contrast and clarity of magnetic resonance imaging are often poor. To achieve focused, specific imaging and observation of living tissues, it is often necessary to construct probe-type contrast-enhancing contrast agents. Antibody protein imaging labeling can be used as an effective method to achieve tissue-specific contrast imaging. It uses antigen-antibody binding to achieve efficient targeted contrast imaging, and uses the changes in the imaging signal exhibited by the antibody protein to quantitatively analyze specific proteins in specific tissues. Among them, the expression of transcription factor Olig2 plays an important role in the invasion and evolution of gliomas, and can be used as a key transcription factor to clarify the entry point of the glioma invasion mechanism. Therefore, accurately judging the expression of Olig2 protein in patients with brain gliomas through imaging means can achieve non-invasive diagnosis of the aggressiveness of brain gliomas. However, technically, antibody proteins are active macromolecules, and during their labeling process, it is necessary to pay attention to the impact of changes in protein structure on their targeting function. For example, changes in protein structure during chemical labeling often lead to a weakening of their targeting ability, and imaging molecules and target proteins often cannot achieve high efficiency through simple physical complexation, or imaging molecules increase their binding to proteins through electrostatic adsorption while often destroying the structure and targeting effect of the protein. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a non-destructive antibody protein labeling method with a simple preparation process and high imaging labeling efficiency for the specific diagnosis of clinical diseases. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, in a first aspect of the present invention, a non-destructive imaging labeling method for αOlig2 that retains the targeting binding ability of the antibody protein is provided, comprising the following steps:
[0004] (1) Introducing Cy5 into αOlig2 to obtain an αOlig2-Cy5 antibody probe;
[0005] (2) reacting n-alkyldiamine and diethylenetriamine pentaacetic anhydride to obtain dimerized diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (di-DTPA);
[0006] (3) the dimerized diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (di-DTPA) is complexed with gadolinium ions to form dimerized diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid gadolinium (di-Gd-DTPA);
[0007] (4) The dimerized diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid gadolinium (di-Gd-DTPA) reacts with the αOlig2-Cy5 antibody probe to obtain αOlig2-Cy5@di-Gd-DTPA, thereby completing the non-destructive imaging labeling of αOlig2.
[0008] Traditional physical complexation of imaging molecules with target proteins often lacks specific interaction forces or relies on electrostatic adsorption, a method that often results in loss of protein function. To address the shortcomings of existing antibody-protein labeling technologies, the present invention utilizes a combination of biotin labeling and physical complexation to chemically couple the fluorescent molecule Cy5 to the αOlig2 structure. Simultaneously, the T1-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging molecule dimerization, Gd-DTPA, is complexed with αOlig2-Cy5 to create an antibody probe with dual fluorescence / magnetic resonance imaging capabilities.
[0009] The di-Gd-DTPA of the present invention binds to the protein via the hydrophobic structure in the di-Gd-DTPA molecule and the hydrophobic structure of the protein. The present invention utilizes the hydrophobic chain in the di-Gd-DTPA structure to increase the binding efficiency with the protein while preserving the protein function. The reaction conditions are mild, and the process ensures that the target binding ability of the antibody protein is retained after being labeled. At the same time, the antibody protein can be given imaging function, and can be used as a targeted contrast agent for diagnosing the aggressiveness of brain gliomas.

[0097] T1 MRI and r1 relaxivity determination of αOlig2-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd:
[0098] 200 μL of αOlig2-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd and Gd-8-Gd containing 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mM Gd ion content was added to a 96-well plate, respectively, and the clinical contrast agent Gd-DTPA was used as a comparison. The 96-well plate was placed on a 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging system for T1MRI imaging and T1 mapping analysis. T1 relaxation time was obtained by fitting T1 mapping using McsfDicomViewer software. The r1 relaxation rate is the reciprocal of the gadolinium ion concentration (mM) and the T1 relaxation time (s -1 ) is the slope value of the linear equation. The test results are as follows Figure 1 and 2 As shown in the figure, after αOlig2-Cy5 was complexed with Gd-8-Gd, the T1 relaxation rates of both were similar and higher than those of the clinically used Gd-DTPA, as measured by a 3.0T MRI. Similarly, the same results were obtained using a 5.0T MRI.
[0099] Test Example 2
[0100] Flow cytometry was used to identify the targeting efficiency of αOlig2 after fluorescent labeling and gadolinium ion labeling:
[0101] 1×10 5 Mouse glioma cells (GL261) were cultured for 48 hours, digested with trypsin, and washed with PBS. The cells collected from each well were incubated with αOlig2-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd for 1 hour and then analyzed by flow cytometry. αIgG-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd prepared according to the optimal preparation process of aOlig2-Cys@Gd-8-Gd was used as a control, and PBS was used as a blank control. The test results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 3 As shown in the results, αOlig2-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd can efficiently label GL261, and its labeling efficiency is significantly higher than that of αIgG-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd, indicating that αOlig2 has the ability to specifically label brain glioma cells that highly express Olig2 protein after being labeled with fluorescence and gadolinium ions.
[0102] Test Example 3
[0103] Western blotting was used to identify the antigen-antibody binding efficiency of αOlig2 after fluorescent labeling and gadolinium ion labeling:
[0104] 1×10 5 Mouse glioma cells (GL261) were cultured for 48 hours and then digested with trypsin and washed with PBS. The cells collected from each well were extracted with protein (total protein) and then subjected to Western blotting. The primary antibody was incubated with unmodified and modified αOlig2 during the binding process. The test results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, after being labeled with fluorescence and gadolinium ions, αOlig2 still maintains antigen-antibody binding ability similar to that of simple αOlig2, further indicating that the binding of αOlig2-Cy5@Gd-8-Gd to GL261 cells is a specific labeling achieved through antigen-antibody binding.
