Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a pretreatment solution and an extraction method for co-extracting genomic DNA and cell-free DNA, and belongs to the field of biomedical technology. Background Art
[0002] The technology for co-extracting genomic DNA and cell-free DNA mainly involves the fields of biology, molecular biology and medicine. This technology is usually used to study the DNA in cells, as well as the cell-free DNA present in liquids (such as blood, urine).
[0003] Since the discovery of circulating tumor cells in 1869, less invasive liquid biopsy technology has become possible. As a branch of in vitro diagnosis, liquid biopsy is a technology for diagnosing diseases by sampling body fluids such as cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, pleural effusion, blood, ascites, urine, etc. Compared with tissue biopsy, liquid biopsy mainly has the advantages of non-invasiveness, early diagnosis, and dynamic monitoring. The DNA in liquid samples can be simply divided into two parts: nucleated cells shed by the human body system, and cell-free DNA that enters body fluids through the circulatory system. The genomic DNA and cell-free DNA obtained by liquid biopsy can be applied to fields such as early disease screening, diagnostic typing, drug companion detection, and patient condition monitoring, and have great development potential.
[0004] Currently, both blood and urine can be used as the basis for liquid biopsy technology. Among them, urine, as a sample with lower invasiveness and more convenient sampling, is gradually being explored for its potential as a liquid biopsy sample. Moreover, urine samples have the following advantages compared to blood samples: (1) lower infectivity to infectious diseases such as HIV; (2) similar nucleic acid profiles to blood; (3) lower protein content in urine, which is more conducive to nucleic acid extraction.
[0005] Urothelial bladder cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the bladder mucosa. It is the second most common cancer in the urinary system and has the highest incidence in the urogenital system in China. Multiple reports have pointed out that various relevant carcinogenic gene mutations and other genetic variations can be detected in the genomic DNA and cell-free DNA of urine exudate cells of bladder cancer patients, indicating that there is an association between gene mutations in urine samples and disease progression. Cell-free DNA in similar body fluids can not only monitor bladder cancer, but also monitor other non-urinary system cancers, such as prostate cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, etc.; it can also participate in the diagnosis of infectious diseases (such as tuberculosis), dynamic monitoring after organ transplantation; and non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of fetuses. We can also perform targeted drug use and prognosis prediction based on the mutation sites in the DNA extracted from body fluids.
[0006] Currently, there are relatively few commercial kit products on the market that can extract DNA from body fluids. Moreover, the vast majority of them can only perform single genomic DNA extraction or free DNA extraction, and the extraction of free DNA takes a long time. Some products that can co-extract genomic DNA and free DNA have problems with the difficult separation of genomic DNA and free DNA. In particular, the presence of genomic DNA can be detected in free DNA, which also affects the purity of free DNA.
[0007] The application of automation technology in the extraction of free DNA is also constantly evolving. Automation technology uses liquid handling workstations and automated instruments, which can process multiple samples simultaneously, reduce the error of manual operation, and provide high-throughput extraction capabilities. However, the technology for co-extracting genomic DNA and free DNA through automation technology is also in the development process, and there is currently no mature processing technology.
[0008] Generally speaking, the technology for co-extracting genomic DNA and free DNA is still in the development process, especially the technology for co-extracting genomic DNA and free DNA from urine samples is in its infancy. The continuous development of DNA extraction technology from body fluid samples provides more possibilities for fields such as molecular biology research, clinical diagnosis, and personalized medicine.
[0009] The technology for co-extracting genomic DNA and free DNA has the following technical difficulties:
[0010] (1) The problem of preserving the integrity of exfoliated cells: There are exfoliated cells and free DNA in body fluids; if the exfoliated cells undergo apoptosis and lysis, the released DNA will not only dilute the original free DNA but also interfere with the purity of the extracted free DNA, affecting the reliability of downstream results.
[0011] (2) The problem of stably preserving free DNA: Free DNA fragments are small, and free DNA in urine is even smaller than that in blood; moreover, the half-life of free DNA is very short, so it is also very important to ensure the stability of free DNA during the period from sampling to DNA extraction.
[0012] (3) The requirement of no genomic DNA contamination in the extracted free DNA: On the one hand, it is necessary to prevent the lysis of exfoliated cells in body fluids; on the other hand, it is necessary to avoid the residue of genomic DNA during the extraction of free DNA.
[0013] Since the extraction of cell-free DNA is time-consuming and has poor stability, there are few kits on the market that can extract cell-free DNA. Most of them can only perform single genomic DNA extraction. There are very few that can perform genomic DNA extraction and cell-free DNA extraction, but it is difficult to fully separate the two. The presence of genomic DNA detected in cell-free DNA will affect the purity of cell-free DNA, thereby affecting the accuracy of downstream experiments. Summary of the Invention
[0014] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the present invention provides a pretreatment solution and an extraction method for co-extracting genomic DNA and cell-free DNA.

[0047] In the aqueous suspension of silica, the particle size of silica is 50 - 400 nm.
[0048] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0049] (1) Pretreating the sample with the pretreatment solution of the present invention can achieve rapid and efficient sample collection: When customers directly collect samples without any treatment, the integrity of exfoliated cells cannot be guaranteed, which will directly lead to the inability to separate genomic DNA from free DNA. If only free DNA is to be analyzed, then the sample must be centrifuged to separate the exfoliated cells, and only the supernatant is retained. Adding the pretreatment solution in this technology can not only preserve the exfoliated cells but also maintain the stability of free DNA. The advantages are as follows: ① The sample collection process can occur at any time and place without the participation of experimental equipment such as centrifuges; ② After adding the sample pretreatment solution, it can meet the requirement that there is a certain distance between the sampling location and the analysis laboratory, and the subsequent sample analysis will not be affected by the express transportation in the middle.
[0050] (2) Pretreating the sample with the pretreatment solution of the present invention can not only preserve the exfoliated cells but also maintain the stability of free DNA, ensuring that they do not interfere with each other during the subsequent extraction of genomic DNA and free DNA, and guaranteeing the purity of genomic DNA and free DNA respectively.
[0051] (3) Pretreating the sample with the pretreatment solution of the present invention is beneficial for the extraction of DNA from difficult samples: Adding the pretreatment solution to treat the sample can change the properties of the sample, increase the solubility of some impurities in the sample, and is beneficial for the subsequent extraction of DNA.
[0052] (4) Separating free DNA by silica hydroxyl nanomagnetic beads or silica has rapidity and high efficiency. Under the action of the pretreatment solution, free DNA is adsorbed onto the silica hydroxyl nanomagnetic beads or silica, and the binding and adsorption of free DNA are completed within 1 minute. Especially when the sample volume is relatively large, there is no need for multiple centrifugations or long-time filtration, avoiding the degradation of free DNA caused by long-time operations.
[0053] (5) The extraction method of the present invention can save time and samples. By simultaneously extracting genomic DNA and free DNA, two kinds of nucleic acids can be obtained from one sample in one experiment, thus saving time and samples. This is very valuable for researchers, especially when the number of samples is limited or large-scale analysis is required.
[0054] (6) The free DNA extracted by the extraction method of the present invention has high purity. In this technology, the sample is pretreated with a pretreatment solution, which can not only preserve exfoliated cells but also maintain the stability of free DNA, so that the extracted free DNA is free from the contamination of genomic DNA, ensuring the purity of free DNA and making the downstream results more accurate.

[0308] The same pretreatment solution as in Example 1 was used to pretreat the same samples, and then the genomic DNA and free DNA were co-extracted using the same method as in Example 1, except that: the content of SDS in the lysis buffer in this Example 13 was 2%.
[0309] The optimal concentration of SDS in the lysis buffer was verified by the purification results of Example 1 and Examples 12 - 13. To make the experimental data more persuasive, the purification methods of Example 1 and Examples 12 - 13 were respectively used to purify two samples. The electrophoresis pattern of the purified genomic DNA is as Figure 4 shown. It can be seen from Figure 4 that: the yields of genomic DNA are not very different. Considering the cost, a concentration of 0.5% of SDS in the lysis buffer is sufficient.
[0310] Examples 14 - 17
[0311] The same pretreatment solution as in Example 2 was used to pretreat the same samples, and then the genomic DNA and free DNA were co-extracted using the same method as in Example 2, except that: the concentrations of guanidine salts in the lysis buffer in these Examples 14 - 17 were 2M, 4M, 6M, and 8M respectively.
[0312] Verify the optimal concentration of guanidine salt in the lysis solution through the purification conditions of Example 1 and Examples 14 - 17. The specific results are as Figure 5 and Figure 6 .

[0314] Extract free DNA and genomic DNA using the same method as in Example 1, with the difference that: Replace the aqueous suspension of silica hydroxyl nanomagnetic beads in Example 1 with the commercially available product Zymo, Clearing Beads, Cat No. D3061 - 2 - 1.
[0315] Comparative Example 2
[0316] Extract free DNA and genomic DNA using the same method as in Example 1, with the difference that: Replace the aqueous suspension of silica hydroxyl nanomagnetic beads in Example 1 with the commercially available product Magen, MagPure Particles F, Cat No.MPF - 100.
[0317] The electrophoresis diagrams of free DNA extraction in Example 1, Example 2, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Example 2 are as Figure 7 shown. It can be seen that: There is contamination of genomic DNA on the gel diagram of lane 3 in Comparative Example 1. Thus, it can be shown that using the silica hydroxyl nanomagnetic beads or silica dioxide described in the present invention is more conducive to achieving high - purity extraction of free DNA.

From Figure 9 it can be seen that: if the pretreatment solution is not added to the sample, it has no inhibitory effect on the growth of bacteria in the sample. The proliferation of bacteria leads to a significant increase in the yield of genomic DNA, and instead, it will dilute the DNA of exfoliated cells in the sample.

[0342] The purification of the above examples and comparative examples was detected, and the extraction results are shown in Table 1. The detection methods involved were Invitrogen™ Qubit™ 4 fluorometer and Qubit™ 1X dsDNA HS Assay Kits; Thermo Scientific NanoDrop One spectrophotometer. The specific detection results are shown in Table 1 below. Among them, the measurement methods for the stability of genomic DNA preservation (the 5th column in Table 1) and the stability of free DNA preservation (the 6th column in Table 1) are as follows: After the sample is pretreated with the pretreatment solution and placed at room temperature for 30 days, genomic DNA and free DNA are extracted, and the obtained yield data is detected (in Comparative Example 7, the pretreatment solution was not added, and the sample was directly placed at room temperature for 30 days, and then genomic DNA and free DNA were extracted for yield data testing). The smaller the difference between the data in the 2nd column and the 5th column in Table 1, and the smaller the difference between the data in the 4th column and the 6th column, the better the preservation stability. Among them, in Table 1, the data in the 2nd to 4th columns are all the data measured within 6 hours after the sample was obtained.
[0343] Table 1 Extraction of samples in examples and comparative examples
[0344]
[0345] It can be seen from the above table data and the attached drawings that: In Examples 1-17, the extraction method described in the present invention was used to extract genomic DNA and free DNA, and it was possible to simultaneously extract high-purity genomic DNA and free DNA from one sample. The pretreatment solution used can not only preserve exfoliated cells but also maintain the stability of free DNA, so that the extracted free DNA is free from genomic DNA contamination, ensuring the purity of free DNA and making the downstream results more accurate.
[0346] From the comparison of the experimental results of Example 1, Example 2, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that using the silicon hydroxyl nano magnetic beads or silica defined in the present invention is more conducive to achieving the high-purity extraction of free DNA.
[0347] From the comparison of the experimental results of Example 1, Example 2, Comparative Example 3, Comparative Example 4, Comparative Example 5, Comparative Example 6, and the comparison of the experimental results of Example 5, Example 6, and Comparative Example 12, it can be seen that using the lysis solution defined in the present invention is more conducive to achieving the extraction of genomic DNA.
[0348] From the comparison of the experimental results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 7, it can be seen that: if the sample is not pretreated with the pretreatment solution, it is very difficult to co-extract genomic DNA and cell-free DNA. Moreover, since the pretreatment solution is not added to the sample, there is no inhibitory effect on the growth of bacteria in the sample. Bacterial proliferation leads to a significant increase in the yield of genomic DNA, and a large amount of bacterial genomic DNA will be extracted, diluting the genomic DNA of exfoliated cells in the sample. At the same time, cell-free DNA cannot be extracted, and the required genomic DNA and cell-free DNA cannot be obtained. The pretreatment solution of the present invention can increase the dissolution of some impurities in the sample, which is beneficial to the subsequent DNA extraction, and is more conducive to the stable storage of genomic DNA and cell-free DNA.
[0349] From the comparison of the experimental results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 8 and Comparative Example 9, it can be seen that the pretreatment solution prepared when high-molecular-weight polyhydric alcohols and low-molecular-weight polyhydric alcohols coexist is more conducive to the co-extraction of genomic DNA and cell-free DNA.
[0350] From the comparison of the experimental results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 10 and Comparative Example 11, it can be seen that when the concentration of Tween-20 in the lysis solution is within the range defined by the present invention, it is more conducive to the extraction of genomic DNA.
[0351] In summary, the extraction method of the present invention has the following advantages:
[0352] (1) Saving time and samples: By co-extracting genomic DNA and cell-free DNA, two kinds of nucleic acids can be obtained from one sample in one experiment, thus saving time and samples. This is very valuable for researchers, especially when the number of samples is limited or large-scale analysis is required.
[0353] (2) Maintaining the stability of exfoliated cells and cell-free DNA in the sample, which is also a prerequisite for ensuring the purity of cell-free DNA: The components of the sample pretreatment solution included in this technology can ensure that exfoliated cells do not apoptose or lyse within 7 days and cell-free DNA does not degrade within 30 days when exfoliated cells and cell-free DNA coexist.
[0354] (3) No contamination of genomic DNA in the extracted cell-free DNA: With the help of the sample pretreatment solution, when extracting cell-free DNA, the contamination of genomic DNA can be completely removed only by centrifugation, ensuring the purity of cell-free DNA.
[0355] The pretreatment solution can not only increase the solubility of some impurities in the sample, which is beneficial to the subsequent DNA extraction, but also preserve the sample, which is beneficial to transportation. The preservation effect on the sample mainly includes preserving exfoliated cells and maintaining the stability of cell-free DNA.
[0356] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are not exhaustively listed. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.
[0357] For those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the appended claims.
