Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biological genetic technology, and in particular to a method for preparing non-immunogenic mesenchymal stem cells that overexpress FGF-19. Background Art

[0002] CRISPR / Cas9 originates from an immune regulatory system found in bacteria and archaea that defends against viruses and foreign DNA. The pairing of crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA) and tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA) forms a complex that specifically recognizes genomic sequences, guiding the Cas9 endonuclease to cleave the target fragment. Two-in-one optimization of these two RNAs yields sgRNA (single-guide RNA), which can also guide Cas9 for targeted cleavage. Leveraging its specific targeting capabilities, precise gene editing, including gene knockout, knockin, and point mutations, is possible. This system has been widely used for gene editing in a variety of organisms, including zebrafish, mice, rats, Caenorhabditis elegans, plants, and bacteria.

[0003] The CRISPR-Cas9 system edits and cuts to produce double-strand breaks (DSBs) in DNA, which can induce the natural repair mechanism of DNA. If a homologous exogenous DNA is introduced into the cell as a repair template (DonorDNA) at the same time, and the DonorDNA sequence carries the target mutation, then the cell can obtain the target mutation through the homologous recombination (HDR) repair mechanism, thereby achieving stable and precise gene editing. The specific principle is as follows Figure 1 shown.

[0004] Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a type of multipotent stem cell, a multipotent cell with the ability to self-replicate. Under certain conditions, they can differentiate into a variety of functional cells, such as APSCs.

[0005] MSCs originate from the mesoderm during embryonic development. During normal tissue repair, they are a crucial cell reservoir involved in tissue regeneration. In response to specific signals induced by tissue damage, MSCs migrate to the damaged area, where they aggregate and proliferate, and differentiate along distinct pathways depending on the damage signal. MSCs are easy to isolate and proliferate, exhibiting a robust in vitro multiplication capacity and maintaining their multidirectional differentiation potential even after 100 million-fold expansion. Therefore, MSCs are a practical seed cell for tissue repair.

[0006] FGF-19 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members have a wide range of mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in multiple biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention aims to provide a method for preparing non-immunogenic mesenchymal stem cells that overexpress FGF-19. The method uses MSCs to generate polyclonal cells. The B2M gene is knocked out, and a target sequence (homologous arm + promoter + FGF coding sequence + homology arm) is simultaneously inserted to obtain polyclonal cells in which the target fragment is knocked in after the B2M gene is disrupted.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] A method for preparing non-immunogenic mesenchymal stem cells that overexpress FGF-19, characterized in that the method comprises the following steps: knocking out the B2M gene through site-directed knock-in of mesenchymal stem cells, and simultaneously inserting a DonorDNA target sequence, including homology arms, a promoter and an FGF coding sequence, to obtain polyclonal cells in which the target fragment is site-directedly knocked in after the B2M gene is destroyed.

[0010] A method for preparing non-immunogenic mesenchymal stem cells that overexpress FGF-19, the method comprising the following steps:

[0011] Step 1. Preliminary experiment on living cells:

[0012] The cells were subjected to puro drug concentration screening and electroporation pre-experiments to confirm the drug resistance screening conditions and electroporation conditions and efficiency of the cells;

[0013] Step 2: Target detection:

[0014] MSC cells were collected to extract genomic DNA and amplify the B2M gene target site. The amplified product was sent for sequencing, and the sequencing results were compared with the reference sequence in the NCBI database to confirm whether the target site was correct.

[0015] Step 3: sgRNA plasmid design and construction and Donor DNA synthesis:

[0016] Select the target site, design sgRNA, construct sgRNA-Cas9 plasmid, and synthesize DonorDNA based on the sgRNA sequence;

[0017] Step 4: Cell transfection and screening experiments:

[0018] Each sgRNA-Cas9 and DonorDNA were co-transfected into MSC cells. After 72 hours, puro was added for positive screening. The surviving cells were screened and expanded for culture. Genomic DNA was extracted from some cells and verified by PCR sequencing to detect whether there were edited cells with site-specific integration.

[0019] Step 5: Preservation of polyclonal cells:

[0020] The polyclonal edited cells that have been detected to have site-specific integration will be further expanded and cultured and delivered to cell culture flasks. After receiving the cells, they will be immediately passaged and cryopreserved for seed preservation.

[0021] The DonorDNA target sequence is as follows:

[0102] 1. Preliminary experiments on living cells:

[0103] The cells were subjected to puro drug concentration screening and electroporation pre-experiments to confirm the cell resistance screening conditions and electroporation conditions and efficiency.

[0104] 2. Target detection:

[0105] MSC cells were collected to extract genomic DNA and amplify the B2M gene target site. The amplified products were sent for sequencing, and the sequencing results were compared with the reference sequences in the NCBI database to confirm whether the target site was correct.

[0106] 3. sgRNA plasmid design and construction and Donor DNA synthesis:

[0107] Select the target site, design sgRNA to construct sgRNA-Cas9 plasmid, and design and synthesize DonorDNA based on the sgRNA sequence.

[0108] Note: The CRIPSR plasmid and donor plasmid used in this step are both Minicricle plasmids, so the preparation of MC plasmid is required.

[0109] 4. Cell transfection and screening experiments:

[0110] Each sgRNA-Cas9 was co-transfected with DonorDNA into MSC cells. After 72 hours, puro was added for positive screening. The surviving cells were screened for expansion culture.

[0117] MSC cells were electroporated using LONZA4DXunit electroporator, using SE electroporation solution and FF104 program.

[0118] Electroporation was performed on a GFP plasmid of approximately 5kb (PmaxGFP), a GFP plasmid of approximately 8kb (psi-lv-U6GFP), and a GFP plasmid of approximately 13kb (lenti-Cas9-GFP). Fluorescence expression was observed 48 hours later. Only the GFP plasmid of approximately 5kb showed effective expression, with an electroporation efficiency of up to 90%.

[0119] Conclusion: If Figures 2 to 4 , the size of CRISPR plasmid and donor plasmid should be kept within 5k as much as possible to achieve better transfection efficiency.

[0120] 2. sgRNA design and target detection:

[0132] 3. Construction of MC-CRISPR plasmid and MC-donor plasmid:

[0133] MC-CRISPR maternal plasmid map Figure 6 After induction, a sgRNA-Cas9 expression plasmid with a size of about 5.7k can be obtained. The MC-donor mother plasmid map is as follows Figure 7 After induction, a donor expression plasmid with a size of about 2.5k can be obtained.

[0134] 4. Transfection Experiment:

[0136] Conclusion: Only sgRNA2 and sgRNA3 have weak editing peaks at the target sites, among which sgRNA3 has a slightly better effect.

[0137] 5. Polyclonal drug screening and identification:

[0138] Polyclonal cells transfected with the MC-sg3-Cas9 and MC-sg3-donor plasmids were screened using puromycin at a final concentration of 0.3 μg / ml.
