Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biochemistry, and in particular to a nucleic acid aptamer specifically binding to CD117 and a use thereof. Background Art
[0002] CD117 (c-KIT) is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase that forms a dimer when bound to stem cell growth factors, thereby activating the downstream KIT signaling pathway and regulating cell survival, proliferation, differentiation and migration. Initially, CD117 was widely studied in the field of oncology as a proto-oncogene. Among them, tyrosine kinase inhibitors represented by imatinib mesylate tablets (Gleevec) can effectively inhibit the kinase activity of CD117. On the other hand, CD117, as an important leukocyte differentiation antigen molecule, is specifically expressed on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells and acute myeloid leukemia tumor cells, and is an important marker for the immunophenotyping of hematopoietic stem cells and AML. Therefore, monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, and CAR-T cell therapies developed with CD117 as the target can selectively eliminate hematopoietic stem cells and tumor cells in the patient's bone marrow, creating a safer and more effective implantation space for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, the inhibitors targeting CD117 have drug resistance, and the monoclonal antibodies have the disadvantages of high production cost, long production time, poor stability, and difficulty in achieving precise chemical modification, which to some extent hinder the clinical application of CD117. Therefore, the development of new recognition ligands targeting CD117 is of great significance for the research of clinically related diseases.
[0003] Aptamers are a type of ssDNA or RNA composed of 20-100 bases that can specifically recognize and bind to target molecules. Since the binding of aptamers to targets is similar to the immunoaffinity binding between antigens and antibodies, they are vividly called "chemists' antibodies". However, unlike antibody production, aptamers are obtained by rapid in vitro screening through exponential enrichment ligand system evolution technology. They not only have affinity and specificity comparable to antibodies, but also have the following unique advantages: (1) The binding target range is relatively wide, including small molecules, proteins, microorganisms, viruses, and cells; (2) Successfully identified aptamers can be synthesized chemically, with high production efficiency, relatively low cost, and small quality differences between batches; (3) The molecular weight is relatively small and the immunogenicity is low; (4) Precise chemical modification and design can be achieved, with strong thermal stability and easy long-term storage. Therefore, developing a nucleic acid aptamer that specifically binds to CD117 as a new type of recognition ligand and widely applying it to many fields such as molecular imaging, biosensing, and cell separation shows great application prospects. Summary of the invention
[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a nucleic acid aptamer that specifically binds to CD117 and its use.

As the screening and enrichment of the ssDNA library proceed, the binding level of the selection pool of the enriched ssDNA library gradually increases, wherein the binding level of the selection pool of the 12th round of ssDNA library is the highest, which indicates that the present invention can select the 12th round of ssDNA library for high-throughput sequencing, and select candidate nucleic acid aptamers by analyzing the homology and abundance differences of the enriched sequences in the screening library.
[0105] 2. Flow cytometry analysis of the binding ability of AptCD117 to HEL cells and K562 cells The cultured HEL cells were washed once with 5 mL DPBS, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and 1 mL Binding Buffer was added to resuspend the cells. A blank group, a control group, and an experimental group were set up. The blank group, the control group, and the experimental group all included 150 μL of 5 × 10 cells. 5 HEL cells; 50 pmol of the initial ssDNA library modified with 5-FAM was also added to the control group, and 50 pmol of AptCD117 modified with 5-FAM was also added to the experimental group. AptCD117 was screened in Example 1, and the cells were gently shaken and mixed, and incubated for 45 minutes. During the incubation period, the cells were shaken and mixed once every 15 minutes. After the incubation, 400 μL of washing buffer (Washing Buffer) was added to wash once, and centrifuged at 300g for 5 minutes at 25°C, and then 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added to resuspend the cells, and the binding ability of AptCD117 to HEL cells was detected by flow cytometry. Washing Buffer includes magnesium chloride hexahydrate, glucose and DPBS, the mass ratio of magnesium chloride hexahydrate to glucose is 1:4.5, and the dosage ratio of magnesium chloride hexahydrate to DPBS is 1g:980mL.
[0106] According to the above method, HEL cells were replaced with K562 cells, and the binding ability of AptCD117 to K562 cells was detected by flow cytometry.
[0107] Figure 2 The flow cytometry analysis of the binding level of AptCD117 to HEL cells showed that there was no difference in the binding level between the blank group and the control group, and the binding level of the experimental group was higher than that of the blank group and the control group. Figure 3 The figure is a flow cytometry analysis of the binding level of AptCD117 to K562 cells. There is no difference in the binding level between the blank group and the control group. This shows that the AptCD117 screened in Example 1 of the present invention has a strong binding ability with HEL cells and does not bind to K562 cells.
[0108] 3. siRNA gene interference experiment to identify the binding target of AptCD117 HEL cells were seeded in 24-well plates at a cell number of 6 × 10 5 / well, and then add 1640 culture medium (without serum and double antibody) to a final volume of 1 mL, and then place the 24-well plate in a 37°C incubator for use. Set up a blank control group (NC), siRNA1 group (siRNA1), siRNA2 group (siRNA2), and siRNA3 group (siRNA3), each group including 1 mL HEL cells, 150 μL 1640 culture medium (without serum and double antibody), 40 μL transfection buffer (Transfection buffer), siRNA with a concentration of 20 μmol / L, and 1.8 μL transfection reagent (GenMute TM Reagent), wherein the siRNA of the NC group is 5'-CCCAACACAACUUCCUUAUTT-3', and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.5; the nucleotide sequence of siRNA1 is 5'-GCCCACAAUAGAUUGGUAUTT-3', and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.6; the nucleotide sequence of siRNA2 is 5'-CUGGCAUGAUGUGCAUUAUTT-3', and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.7; the nucleotide sequence of siRNA3 is 5'-GACCAACAUUCAAGCAAAUTT-3', and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No.8. Centrifuge at 800g for 75min at 37℃, and then culture at 37℃ for 5h. After the culture, the culture medium is discarded, 2mL of fresh 1640 medium (containing 10% FBS and 1% double antibody) is added, and the cells are placed in a 37℃ incubator for further culture for 48h. After the culture is completed, the cells of each group are collected and resuspended in Binding Buffer. Afterwards, the cells of the NC, siRNA1, siRNA2, and siRNA3 groups were divided into two groups, 2.5 μL of phycoerythrin-modified anti-CD117 antibody was added to one group, and 50 pmol of 5-FAM-modified AptCD117 was added to the other group. They were incubated in an ice box for 45 min, during which the cells were gently shaken and mixed every 15 min. After the incubation, 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added for washing, and the cells were centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25°C. The supernatant was discarded, and 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added to resuspend the cells and transferred to a flow tube. The expression of CD117 protein on the surface of the HEL cell membrane was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the binding ability of AptCD117 to the HEL cells after siRNA interference was analyzed.
[0109] Figure 4 Figure 3 is the expression of CD117 in HEL cells after siRNA interference. The expression of CD117 in siRNA1, siRNA2, and siRNA3 groups was lower than that in NC group, which indicates that siRNA1, siRNA2, and siRNA3 groups can effectively knock down the expression of CD117 protein on HEL cells.
[0110] Figure 5 Figure 2 is the binding of AptCD117 to HEL cells after siRNA interference. The binding levels of AptCD117 in the siRNA1, siRNA2, and siRNA3 groups were all lower than those in the NC group, indicating that after the CD117 protein on HEL cells was knocked down by siRNA, the binding ability between AptCD117 and HEL cells was significantly weakened, and was positively correlated with the downregulation level of CD117. Therefore, AptCD117 specifically targets the CD117 protein.

Analysis of the binding affinity between nucleic acid aptamer AptCD117 and CD117 The cultured HEL cells were washed once with 5 mL DPBS, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and 1 mL Binding Buffer was added to resuspend the cells. The HEL cell samples were divided into 9 groups, and the volume of each group of HEL cell samples was 200 μL and the number of cells was 5×10 5 5-FAM-modified AptCD117 was added to 9 groups of HEL cell samples in a concentration gradient of 0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 250, 400, and 600 nmol / L, and each concentration gradient was repeated for 3 groups. The cells were mixed by oscillation and incubated in an ice bath for 45 min. During this period, the cells were gently mixed by oscillation every 15 min. After the incubation, 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added for washing once, and the cells were centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25°C. The supernatant was discarded, and 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added to resuspend the cells and transferred to a flow tube. The fluorescence intensity of the cells was detected by flow cytometry and the Kd value was calculated. Kd value = antibody and antigen dissociation rate / antibody and antigen binding rate.
[0112] Figure 6 The binding affinity analysis of AptCD117 and CD117 showed that AptCD117 had a strong binding affinity with CD117 protein, and the Kd value was 2.83±1.44 nM.
[0113] 5. Application of nucleic acid aptamer AptCD117 in the detection of tumor cells in bone marrow samples of AML patients.
[0114] AML bone marrow samples were collected in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital (Ethics Number: IRB-2023-1159), 200 μL of blood sample was drawn, 1 mL of 1×ACK lysis buffer was added and mixed thoroughly, lysed at room temperature for 10 min, centrifuged at 200 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and 500 μL of DPBS and 10 μL of fetal bovine serum were added to wash once, and finally 1 mL of BindingBuffer was added to resuspend the cells, 5 μL of allelic protein-modified anti-CD45 antibody and 2.5 μL of phycoerythrin-modified anti-CD117 antibody were added, vortexed and mixed, and incubated in an ice bath for 30 min. During this period, the cells were gently vortexed and mixed once every 10 min, and 400 μL of WashingBuffer was added to wash once, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and 400 μL of The cells were resuspended in BindingBuffer, and a control group and an experimental group were set up. 50 pmol of the initial ssDNA library modified with 5-FAM was added to the control group, and 50 pmol of AptCD117 modified with 5-FAM was added to the experimental group. The cells were shaken and mixed, and incubated in an ice bath for 30 min. During this period, the cells were gently shaken and mixed once every 15 min. 400 μL of Washing Buffer was added to each of the two groups of samples for washing once. The samples were centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25°C, the supernatant was discarded, and 600 μL of Washing Buffer was added to resuspend the cells. 400 μL of cell sample was aspirated into a flow tube, and the recognition and binding ability of AptCD117 to AML tumor cells was detected by flow cytometry.
[0115] Figure 7 To analyze the binding of AptCD117 to CD117+ tumor cells by flow cytometry, CD117 + The percentage of nucleic acid aptamers in tumor cells was higher than that in the control group, indicating that AptCD117 can specifically recognize and bind to CD117 + Tumor cells.
[0116] 6. Flow cytometry analysis of the differences in the binding sites between AptCD117 and SCF.
[0117] The cultured HEL cells were washed once with 5 mL DPBS, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were resuspended in 1 mL Binding Buffer. Two groups of cell samples were set up, one group was added with 50 pmol of 5-FAM fluorescently modified AptCD117 and 2 μg SCF; the other group was incubated in an ice bath for 30 min, during which the cells were gently shaken and mixed once every 10 min, and washed once with 400 μL Washing Buffer, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min at 25 °C, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were resuspended in 400 μL Washing Buffer and transferred to a flow tube, and the differences in the binding sites of AptCD117, anti-CD117 antibody and SCF were detected by flow cytometry.
[0118] Figure 8 The difference in the binding sites between AptCD117 and SCF, Fig. 9 The difference in the binding sites between anti-CD117 antibody and SCF. Figure 8 and Fig. 9 It can be seen that SCF has a competitive effect on the binding of AptCD117 to CD117 protein, that is, the two have a common binding site, while the binding sites of SCF and anti-CD117 antibody are inconsistent. Therefore, AptCD117 can be used as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor to block the binding of SCF to CD117.
[0119] 7. DNA recovery efficiency of anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads The ssDNA library prepared in the sixth round of the screening step S3 of the nucleic acid aptamer specifically binding to CD117 in Example 1 was collected, and its DNA content was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, which was recorded as the initial DNA content (ng / μL); the HEL cell membrane protein was extracted using a cell membrane protein and cytoplasm extraction kit, and the ssDNA library prepared in the sixth round of the screening step S3 of the nucleic acid aptamer specifically binding to CD117 in Example 1 was added, gently shaken and mixed, incubated in the dark for 30 min, anti-CD117 antibody-modified magnetic beads were added, gently shaken and mixed, incubated in an ice bath for 30 min, added Binding Buffer, gently resuspended and washed once, magnetic separation was discarded, and sterile ultrapure water was added to resuspend the magnetic beads, denatured at 95° C. for 10 min, cooled for 2 min, and magnetic separation was performed to collect the supernatant. The DNA content in the supernatant was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry (ng / μL); the DNA recovery efficiency was calculated, and the DNA recovery efficiency (%) = DNA content in the supernatant / initial DNA content × 100%. Using the anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads prepared in Example 1-6 and Comparative Example 1-3, the DNA recovery efficiency of Example 1-6 and Comparative Example 1-3 was obtained accordingly, and the measurement results are shown in Table 1.
[0120] Table 1 DNA recovery efficiency (%)
[0121] As can be seen from Table 1, the DNA recovery efficiency of Example 2-4 is higher than that of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1-2. This is because in the cell lysate screening, Example 2-4 uses 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody-modified magnetic beads, while 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline are not used in Example 1, only 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid is used in Comparative Example 1, and only 2-isopropenylphenylaniline is used in Comparative Example 2. This shows that the use of 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody-modified magnetic beads can improve their DNA recovery efficiency. The DNA recovery efficiency of Examples 5-6 is higher than that of Examples 2-3 and Comparative Example 3 because, in the cell lysate screening, Examples 5-6, on the basis of the coordinated use of 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline, further use glutaric anhydride to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads, while Comparative Example 3 only uses glutaric anhydride to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads. This shows that glutaric anhydride can further improve the recovery efficiency of modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads for DNA.

The protein content in the supernatant was determined using the biuret method (mg / mL); the protein adsorption efficiency was calculated, and the protein adsorption efficiency (%) = protein content in the supernatant / initial protein content × 100%. The anti-CD117 antibody-modified magnetic beads prepared in Example 1-6 and Comparative Example 1-3 were used to obtain the protein adsorption efficiencies of Example 1-6 and Comparative Example 1-3, and the measurement results are shown in Table 2.
[0123] Table 2 Protein adsorption efficiency (%)
[0124] As can be seen from Table 2, the protein adsorption efficiency of Example 2-4 is higher than that of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1-2. This is because in the cell lysate screening, Example 2-4 uses 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads, while 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline are not used in Example 1, only 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid is used in Comparative Example 1, and only 2-isopropenylphenylaniline is used in Comparative Example 2. This shows that the use of 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads can improve their protein adsorption efficiency. The protein adsorption efficiency of Examples 5-6 is higher than that of Examples 2-3 and Comparative Example 3 because, in the cell lysate screening, Examples 5-6, in addition to the coordinated use of 3-allyl-4-methoxybenzoic acid and 2-isopropenylphenylaniline, further use glutaric anhydride to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads, while Comparative Example 3 only uses glutaric anhydride to prepare modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads. This shows that glutaric anhydride can further improve the adsorption efficiency of modified anti-CD117 antibody modified magnetic beads for proteins.
