Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of enzyme activity detection, and particularly relates to a cell lysate, a kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Enzyme activity detection plays an irreplaceable role in disease research and drug development. Clinically, it is generally to detect enzyme activity in human serum, saliva, milk, urine, feces, etc., or tissues to determine whether the body is normal; when developing drugs, mice and rats are used to repeat the enzyme activity detection in the above samples. These detection studies are all evaluated at the macroscopic level of the organism. With the development of science and technology and people's attention to health, the research at the cellular level of the organism has been continuously deepened, and cell metabolism research has become one of the hottest research topics. Enzyme activity detection is part of metabolic detection, and cell enzyme activity detection is part of cell metabolism detection. The research on cell enzyme activity is inseparable from the related technologies and supporting reagents for cell metabolism detection. With the in-depth study of cells, the demand is getting larger and higher. They belong to an important branch of cell detection. In order to more intuitively show cell functions and states, it is necessary to innovate traditional cell metabolism detection technologies and reagents.

[0003] For the existing cell enzyme activity detection, generally, cells are homogenized at low temperature or sonicated with an isotonic solution, and then after collecting the homogenate, it is centrifuged at high speed, and the supernatant is taken as the detection object. The operation is complex, time-consuming and laborious, which is particularly obvious when there are many samples. On the other hand, in order to ensure detection, a relatively large amount of cells is used, increasing the usage cost. When detecting cell enzyme activity, using mechanical homogenization or sonication cannot completely extract the enzyme. Although the traditional lysis buffer RIPA has a high extraction efficiency, its lysis characteristics will have an obvious impact on enzyme activity and the detection system, so it is not applicable.

[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to provide a cell lysate that can efficiently process cells, increase the cell breakage rate, and reduce the cell usage amount to improve the overall experimental efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above technical deficiencies, and propose a cell lysate, a kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells and an application thereof, to solve the technical problems in the prior art that during the detection of various enzyme activities in cells, the enzyme activity extracted with the traditional lysis buffer is reduced, the sample processing with mechanical homogenization is complex, and the number of samples that can be processed is limited.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a cell lysate, and the components of the cell lysate include: 25 - 150 mM of a first buffer, 75 - 125 mM of an isotonic component, 1% Triton X-100, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, 1 - 2 mmol / L of EDTA, 0.1 - 0.5% BSA, 20 - 80 g / L of sucrose, 1 - 3% glycerol, 0.1 - 0.5% β-cyclodextrin, 10 - 20 g / L of mannitol, 10 - 20 g / L of hexose, 0.1 - 0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, 10 - 25 mM of sodium sulfate, 0.1 - 0.5% dextran, 0.5 - 1.5% PVP, 5 - 10 mM of glycine, 1 - 5% PEG6000.

[0007] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells, and the kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells includes the cell lysate provided in the first aspect of the present invention.

[0008] In a third aspect, the present invention provides the application of the above kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells in detecting enzyme activity in cells.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include:

[0010] Compared with a common RIPA lysate, the cell lysate of the present invention removes the ionic detergent component SDS, avoiding the denaturation and inactivation of the enzymes released by cell lysis due to the strong denaturing effect of SDS. At the same time, the combination of Triton X-100 and sodium deoxycholate can already meet the requirement of destroying cell membranes and organelle membranes. On the other hand, some components such as β-cyclodextrin, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and dextran that protect enzyme activity are added to protect the stability of the enzymes released from cells and the enzyme structure in the kit after cell lysis. The cell lysate of the present invention is suitable for detecting the activity of various enzymes in cells, reducing the difficulty of sample processing, and more samples can be processed within the same time using the lysate of the present invention. Using the above cell lysate to prepare a kit for detecting enzyme activity in cells based on immobilization technology can protect the enzyme activity in the sample, and the components in the lysate can also protect the enzymes in the kit. On the other hand, it reduces the difficulty of detecting cell samples and improves the detection efficiency of cell samples. Description of the Drawings

[0079] Application Example 1

[0080] The cells were lysed using the ALTD cell lysate in Example 1 combined with the kit in Example 4 and the method in Example 5; the cells were mechanically homogenized with PBS (10 6 The cell samples to be tested were centrifuged at 4°C, 500×g centrifugal force, after removing the cell supernatant, 1 mL of pre-cooled PBS (0.01M, pH=7.4) was added for thorough washing, and the supernatant was removed by centrifuging at 4°C, 500×g centrifugal force, repeated 3 times, and then 0.2 mL of pre-cooled PBS and a steel ball were added, and the samples were placed in a mechanical homogenizer, and the parameters of 45 Hz, 60 s, and 4°C were set for homogenization); the cells were treated with RIPA lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.4), 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.1% SDS) (10 cells were collected) 6For a cell sample to be tested, after removing the cell supernatant using a refrigerated centrifuge at 4°C and a centrifugal force of 500×g, add 1 mL of pre-cooled PBS (0.01 M, pH = 7.4) and wash thoroughly. Then, remove the supernatant using a refrigerated centrifuge at 4°C and a centrifugal force of 500×g, and repeat this process 3 times. Next, add 0.2 mL of RIPA lysis buffer, mix well on a vortex mixer for 5 seconds, place on ice, mix once every 5 minutes, and lyse on ice for 10 minutes.

[0088] Carry out in the same way as Application Example 1, except that HL-60 is replaced with HepG2 adherent cells.

[0089] Application Example 5

[0090] Use the ALTD cell lysate in Example 3 to treat HL-60 cells that have been serum-starved for 12 h and treated with mannitol and methanol-containing serum for 12 h respectively, and then carry out according to the kit in Example 4 and the detection method in Example 5 to detect the glucose oxidase activity. During detection, the detection wavelength λ is 550 nm, and the results are shown in Figure 2 .

[0091] From Figure 2The results showed that the ALTD cell lysate prepared by the present invention can well extract glucose oxidase from HL-60 cells that have been serum starved for 12 hours and treated with mannitol-methanol serum for 12 hours; the detection results showed obvious differences, indicating that the ALTD cell lysate of the present invention exhibits excellent lysis ability for cell treatment under different conditions.

[0092] Application Example 5

[0093] The HL-60 cells were placed normally for 1 hour and treated with carbon tetrachloride for 1 hour using the ALTD cell lysate in Example 3, and then the lactate dehydrogenase activity was detected according to the kit in Example 4 and the detection method in Example 5. During the detection, the detection wavelength λ was 450nm. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 3 .

[0094] Depend on Figure 3 The results showed that the ALTD cell lysate prepared in Example 3 of the present invention can well extract lactate dehydrogenase from HL-60 cells that have been left normally for 1 hour and treated with carbon tetrachloride for 1 hour, and the detection results showed obvious differences, indicating that the lysate of the present invention can have a good effect on cell treatment under different conditions, and can also detect the activity of different types of enzymes, showing good practicality and simplicity.

[0095] Comparative Example 1

[0096] Glucose oxidase in HL-60 cells was extracted using the ALTD cell lysate in Example 1 and a conventional RIPA lysate (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.1% SDS), respectively. Then, the activity of glucose oxidase was detected according to the kit in Example 4 and the detection method in Example 5. During the detection, the detection wavelength λ was 550 nm. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 4 .

[0097] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that the glucose oxidase activity detected after extraction with the ALTD lysis solution in Example 1 is high, while the glucose oxidase activity detected after extraction with the traditional RIPA lysis solution is low, indicating that the ALTD cell lysis solution of the present invention has a better effect on the lysis and extraction of glucose oxidase in HL-60 cells than the traditional RIPA lysis solution.

[0098] Comparative Example 2

[0099] According to the kit in Example 4 and the detection method in Example 5, 3 portions of 10 6After incubating 10 HL-60 cells for 10 minutes, they were lysed for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, and 30 minutes respectively, and then the activities of glucose oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatase were measured. The detection wavelengths λ were 550 nm, 450 nm, and 520 nm respectively. Three aliquots of 10 6 HL-60 cells were lysed with traditional RIPA lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.1% SDS) for 10 minutes, and then lysed for 10 minutes, 20 minutes, and 30 minutes respectively. Subsequently, the activities of glucose oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatase were measured, and the detection wavelengths λ were 550 nm, 450 nm, and 520 nm respectively. The results are shown in Figure 5 .

[0100] As can be seen from Figure 5 , after extraction with the ALTD cell lysis buffer of the present invention, the activities of the three enzymes are high. Moreover, as the treatment time increases, the decline in the activities of the three enzymes is relatively slow. In contrast, after extraction with the traditional RIPA lysis buffer, the activities of the three enzymes are low, and as the lysis time increases, the decline in the activities of the three enzymes is rapid. This indicates that the ALTD cell lysis buffer provides better protection for the activities of different enzymes in HL-60 cells and can ensure the stability of the structures of different enzymes, indirectly protecting the enzyme activities.

[0101] Comparative Example 3

[0102] After treating HL-60 cells with the cell lysis buffer in Example 1 according to the kit in Example 4 and the detection method in Example 5, the samples were diluted 1-fold, 2-fold, 4-fold, 8-fold, 16-fold, 32-fold, and 64-fold, and the activities of glucose oxidase at 7 dilution multiples were measured with a blank added. The detection wavelength λ was 550 nm. After treating HL-60 cells with the traditional RIPA lysis buffer, the samples were diluted 1-fold, 2-fold, 4-fold, 8-fold, 16-fold, 32-fold, and 64-fold, and the activities of glucose oxidase at 7 dilution multiples were measured with a blank added. The activities of glucose oxidase were measured using a commercially available kit (Company: Elibscience, Product Catalog Number Name: E-BC-K520-M; Glucose Oxidase (GOD) Colorimetric Assay Kit) according to the detection method described in its attached instruction manual. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0103] Table 2

[0104]

[0105] As can be seen from Table 2, when the ALTD cell lysis buffer of the present invention is combined with the kit, compared with the combination of RIPA and the commercially available kit, the signal-to-noise ratio window is larger: 65 vs 10. The sample dilution curve is as shown in Figure 6As shown, it has a wider linear range and better linearity. It has higher sensitivity, with a minimum concentration of 0.003 U / ml. When the cell lysate and kit of the present invention are used, it can be more clearly distinguished from the background 0 point.

[0106] It should be noted that only some of the numerous enzymes in the cell (such as glucose oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase) are used in the experiment of the present invention, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.

[0107] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include:

[0108] (1) Compared with the existing lysates, the lysate of the present invention can lyse cells through the combination of 1% Triton X-100 and 0.25% sodium deoxycholate to release the enzymes, while avoiding over-lysis and inactivation due to structural changes. The enzyme activity protectant and enzyme structure stabilizer mentioned above act synergistically to protect the enzyme. The former directly acts on the active site of the enzyme to play a protective role, and the latter acts on the enzyme composition structure to indirectly protect the enzyme activity. Among them, the combination of 0.1-0.5% β-cyclodextrin and 0.1-0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, the combination of 10-20 g / L mannitol and 0.1-0.5% dextran, and the combination of 0.5-1.5% PVP and 1-5% PEG6000 act synergistically. These three low-molecular and high-molecular substances act synergistically to protect different types of enzymes respectively, ensuring the stability of the enzyme structure.

[0109] (2) The present invention reduces the difficulty of sample processing, is easier to operate, and has a shorter detection time.

[0110] (3) The present invention uses a fixation technique to fix the enzyme or substrate and enzyme at the bottom of the enzyme-labeled plate. The reagents are reduced and the stability time is longer. Combined with the lysate of the present invention, it protects the enzyme to be detected in the cell sample and the fixed tool enzyme that plays a detection role in the enzyme-labeled plate. Compared with the ordinary lysate that will have an obvious impact on the enzyme activity and the tool enzyme in the detection system, the fixation technique combined with the lysate of the present invention can use a tool enzyme with higher enzyme activity to detect the enzyme to be detected with higher enzyme activity, and has higher sensitivity when detecting the same cell sample and the same enzyme.

[0111] (4) The method of treating with the lysate of the present invention, compared with the conventional ordinary mechanical homogenization, does not need to add steel beads, does not need to vibrate and grind on a homogenizer, and does not need to take out the steel beads after homogenization; compared with the ultrasonic fragmentation method, it does not need an ultrasonic crusher and does not need to perform single fragmentation treatment. The lysate of the present invention can process more samples in the same time, and does not require expensive instrument equipment, providing the possibility for meeting the high-throughput sample processing and detection needs of customers.

[0112] The specific embodiments of the present invention described above do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and deformations made according to the technical concept of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
