Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of antigen detection technology, specifically a rapid in situ hybridization detection method and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Existing HPV probe (in situ hybridization) and EBER probe (in situ hybridization) detection kits employ fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology. This involves using a digoxigenin-labeled HPV probe (EBER probe) to hybridize and bind to a specific target sequence in tissue cells. A digoxigenin antibody reacts with the HPV probe (EBER probe) to form an immune complex. Simultaneously, an enhancing secondary antibody binds to the digoxigenin antibody-HPV probe (EBER probe) complex. Finally, HRP catalyzes the formation of a brownish-yellow precipitate of DAB at the binding site, thus revealing the specific target RNA sequence site in the cell under a microscope. This method, using fluorescence in situ hybridization and enhancing secondary antibodies for signal amplification, is time-consuming and has low specificity. In contrast, the rapid FISH method of this invention does not require enhancing secondary antibodies. It directly uses an antibody-AP complex to detect DNA-RNA hybrids, ultimately catalyzing the substrate to emit light. This antibody exhibits a strong binding ability to DNA-RNA hybrids. The use of this antibody shortens the reaction time and improves the sensitivity and specificity of the detection.

[0003] The S9.6 mouse monoclonal antibody was produced in 1986 in mice immunized with bacteriophage φX174, a long DNA-RNA hybrid. The resulting S9.6 exhibits high affinity and specificity for the DNA-RNA hybrid, low affinity for double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), and no affinity for single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or single-stranded RNA (ssRNA). Due to its unique properties, S9.6 immunoglobulin provides the basis for numerous applications, including solution recognition of DNA-RNA hybrids, detection of undetected transcriptionally active genomic regions, in vitro and in vivo recognition of R-loop (annealed nascent mRNA from single-stranded genomic DNA) transcriptional cells, and label-free miRNA (a class of non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules approximately 22 nucleotides long encoded by endogenous genes, involved in post-transcriptional gene expression regulation in plants and animals) detection and analysis.

[0004] Although existing S9.6 mouse monoclonal antibodies exhibit higher specificity and sensitivity against DNA-RNA hybrids compared to commercially available antibodies, they still suffer from non-specific recognition and high background values ​​during ELISA detection. Therefore, screening for an anti-DNA-RNA hybrid antibody with low background values ​​is crucial for viral detection and tumor cell detection. In light of this, we propose a rapid in situ hybridization detection method and its application. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid in situ hybridization detection method and its application, which solves the problem that non-specific identification still causes high background values ​​in the existing ELISA detection.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of the present invention provide the following technical solutions:

[0062] Example

[0063] The anti-DNA-RNA hybrid antibody obtained using the method in step S1 is labeled with AP and then applied to the HPV chemiluminescence-hybridization capture assay reagent. The assay reagent is used to detect the sample to be tested. The operation steps are as follows:

[0064] Step 1, Denaturation: The cells of the sample to be tested are disrupted, causing protein denaturation, RNA degradation, and DNA denaturation into single-stranded DNA, resulting in a denatured sample. After cell disruption, the sample is reacted with a 1.75 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution at a volume ratio of 1:2 to the sample at 65°C for 30 minutes. This process denatures proteins and degrades RNA, reducing the impact of proteins and RNA on subsequent detection. Furthermore, the sodium hydroxide solution opens the double helix structure of DNA, denaturing it into single-stranded DNA. In this embodiment, a combination of chemical and physical methods is used to efficiently degrade RNA and denature double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNA. If the sample contains bacteria or viruses, the double-stranded DNA of the bacteria or viruses is denatured into single-stranded DNA.

[0065] Step 2, Hybridization: The denatured sample obtained in Step 1 is mixed with a specific single-stranded RNA probe stored in a nucleic acid preservation solution at pH 3.5-4.0. Hybridization is then performed for 45 minutes at 65°C and a pH range of 7.0-7.4, allowing the specific single-stranded RNA probe to hybridize with the single-stranded DNA in the denatured sample, forming a DNA-RNA hybrid solution. The single-stranded DNA in the denatured sample forms a DNA-RNA hybrid with the single-stranded RNA probe. The specific single-stranded nucleic acid probe is then placed in a solution at pH 3.5- Preservation in a 4.0-pH nucleic acid preservation solution helps to keep specific single-stranded nucleic acid probes stable and prevent degradation by enzymes in the environment without the need for freezing. When a specific single-stranded nucleic acid probe solution with a pH of 3.5-4.0 is mixed with a sample that has been denatured and decomposed into a single-stranded DNA solution with an alkaline pH, a neutral pH solution is formed, and the specific single-stranded nucleic acid probe becomes a single-stranded RNA probe. At 65°C, according to the complementary pairing principle of base sequences, the single-stranded DNA in the denatured sample and the single-stranded RNA probe form a DNA-RNA hybrid.

[0066] Based on 100 mL of nucleic acid preservation solution, the nucleic acid preservation solution comprises the following components in the following amounts: trisodium citrate 5.8-5.95 g; biological buffer 19.56-20.21 g; disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate 0.173-0.192 g; acidity adjuster 8.2-9.0 mL; preservative 28-33 μl; the balance being pure water; the pH of the preservation solution is 3.5-4.0; the buffer includes at least one of triethanolamine hydrochloride and N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid; the acidity adjuster includes at least one of glacial acetic acid and polyacrylic acid.

[0067] Specific single-stranded nucleic acid probes are preserved in a nucleic acid preservation solution. This solution allows for the preservation of single-stranded RNA probes without freezing, and also keeps the single-stranded RNA probes structurally stable and resistant to degradation.

[0068] Specific single-stranded RNA probes can be full-length single-stranded RNA probes targeting the target DNA or fragmented single-stranded RNA probes targeting a portion of the target DNA. When the specific single-stranded RNA probe is a full-length single-stranded RNA probe targeting the target DNA, it can be a continuous full-length single-stranded RNA probe targeting the target DNA or a segmented full-length single-stranded RNA probe targeting the target DNA. By adopting the above technical solution, whether it is a full-length single-stranded nucleic acid probe targeting the target DNA or a fragmented single-stranded RNA probe targeting a portion of the target DNA, the bases on it that can bind to single-stranded DNA have a certain degree of specificity. This allows the specific single-stranded RNA probe to pair with the bases on the single-stranded DNA and achieve hybridization between the specific single-stranded RNA probe and single-stranded DNA, obtaining a DNA-RNA hybrid.

[0069] Step 3, capture: The first antibody is fixed on the vector, and then the DNA-RNA hybrid solution obtained in step 2 is added. At a temperature of 42°C, the first antibody is used to capture the hybrids in the DNA-RNA hybrid solution for 60 min, and then the liquid is removed.

[0070] The first antibody is a substance that specifically recognizes the hybrid. The substance that specifically recognizes the hybrid is a DNA-RNA hybrid structure-specific antibody, a polyclonal antibody or monoclonal antibody or its fragment, a protein, a catalytically inactivated ribonuclease H, a nucleic acid, a nucleic acid aptamer, or an oligonucleotide that specifically binds to the DNA-RNA hybrid to form a triplet structure. The catalytically inactivated ribonuclease H is obtained by treating ribonuclease H to remove its catalytic activity, which is beneficial for retaining its binding to the DNA-RNA hybrid.

[0071] The primary function of the first antibody is to capture the hybrid in the solution. Reacting at 42°C for 60 minutes helps the first antibody to fully capture the hybrid. The second antibody contains a marker that emits fluorescence upon light excitation, or develops color through gold particle aggregation, or through enzyme-catalyzed reactions, thus achieving detection. The first antibody captures the hybrid by binding to the target site on the hybrid, while the second antibody binds to the DNA-RNA hybrid or conjugate. The detection is then achieved through the marker on the second antibody (in this case, the single-stranded RNA probe does not contain any modification), thereby detecting both the DNA-RNA hybrid and the target DNA in the sample.

[0072] In step three, the first antibody is first immobilized on the carrier, which helps to increase the stability of the first antibody during the operation. When it binds to / captures the hybrid, it helps to improve the stability of the product of the first antibody and the hybrid bound to the hybrid on the carrier. After the first antibody and the hybrid are fully bound, other impurities are washed away, leaving the first antibody and the hybrid for subsequent steps.

[0073] Meanwhile, the primary and secondary antibodies were screened independently, primarily to minimize mismatches between specific single-stranded nucleic acid probes and target DNA, and to avoid inactivation of both antibodies. Specifically, when the screening temperature for the primary and secondary antibodies was set at 42℃, the resulting antibodies exhibited good performance and required a shorter reaction time. Compared to 25℃ and 37℃, the higher temperature of 42℃ accelerated molecular thermal motion, thus helping to shorten the reaction time. The higher temperature effectively increased the binding of the primary and secondary antibodies to the hybrid, resulting in a more accurate signal-to-noise ratio. Compared to 45℃, 50℃, and 65℃, as the temperature increased, the activity of the primary and secondary antibodies gradually decreased or even became inactivated, ultimately making it difficult to accurately detect the signal-to-noise ratio using the markers carried on the secondary antibody.

[0074] Step 4, detection: The DNA-RNA hybrid obtained in Step 3 and captured by the first antibody were reacted with the second antibody stored in the protein preservation solution at 42°C for 30 min, washed, and then allowed to stand at room temperature in the dark for 10 min before detection.

[0075] The second antibody is the anti-DNA-RNA hybrid antibody obtained by the method in step S1. The antibody carries a marker, which emits fluorescence when excited by light, or shows color when gold particles aggregate, or emits light or shows color when catalyzed by enzyme reaction.

[0076] In step four, the protein preservation solution, per 100 ml, includes the following components in the following quantities: 2.535-3.501 g sodium chloride; 6-7 ml Tris-HCl buffer; 20-28 ml casein solution; 28-31 μl preservative; the remainder is pure water; the pH of Tris-HCl is 7.4-7.5.

[0077] In step four, a second antibody is introduced, and the second antibody is also labeled with a marker, which is usually a protein. Using this protein solution for preservation not only eliminates the need for preservation at extremely low temperatures, but also allows the second antibody and the labeled marker to maintain good activity, thereby making the detection results more accurate and reliable.

[0078] The second antibody is one of the following: DNA-RNA hybrid structure-specific antibody, polyclonal antibody or monoclonal antibody or fragment thereof, protein, catalytically inactivated ribonuclease H, nucleic acid, nucleic acid aptamer, or oligonucleotide that specifically binds to DNA-RNA hybrid to form a triplet structure;

[0079] Segmented full-length single-stranded RNA probes targeting the DNA are longer than 100 bp.

[0080] The HPV target DNA is 8000bp in length, and the single-stranded RNA probe can be a full-length single-stranded RNA probe of 8000bp or a fragment of single-stranded RNA probe of 100-2000bp. When choosing a fragment of single-stranded RNA probe of 2000bp, four single-stranded RNA probes need to be used in combination, with lengths of 1-2000bp, 2001-4000bp, 4001-6000bp, and 6001-8000bp.

[0081] Both continuous and segmented probes can induce hybridization between full-length single-stranded RNA probes and single-stranded DNA, resulting in DNA-RNA hybrids. Furthermore, segmentation allows for the introduction of markers, such as biotin, at the beginning and end of each segment's specific single-stranded nucleic acid probe. This enables the subsequent use of avidin, which specifically binds to biotin, to specifically capture biotin and perform subsequent detection, leading to better labeling results. When the length of the segmented full-length single-stranded nucleic acid probe targeting the target DNA exceeds 100 bp, for example, between 100 and 2000 bp, it can form base pairs with single-stranded DNA, thus creating a hybrid between the single-stranded DNA and the segmented full-length single-stranded nucleic acid probe targeting the target DNA.

[0082] Comparative Example

[0083] The anti-DNA-RNA hybrid antibody used in the comparative example was an S9.6 mouse monoclonal antibody, and the remaining steps were the same as in the example.

[0084] The same test samples were tested in the examples and comparative examples, and the results are shown in the table below.

[0085]

[0086] The signal-to-noise ratio in the table is the average value of the concentration detection values ​​ / the average value of the 0 pg / ml detection values. The CV values ​​of different concentration detection values ​​are all below 15%.
