Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cervical cancer cells, and particularly relates to a cervical cancer lymph node high-metastasis model and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lymph node metastasis is the main metastasis mode and cause of death in cervical cancer patients. Therefore, exploring the specific mechanism of lymph node metastasis and mining potential therapeutic targets are particularly important for the treatment of cervical cancer patients. At present, various tumor cell lines mainly originate from the in-situ lesions of tumor patients rather than the tumor cells after metastasis to lymph nodes, making it relatively difficult to compare the gene expression and various biological behaviors between cervical cancer cells with strong metastatic ability and those without lymph node metastasis. Therefore, obtaining cervical cancer cells with strong lymph node metastasis ability and exploring related research on the driving factors of cervical cancer lymph node metastasis have become important problems that need to be solved urgently.

[0003] Existing research on cervical cancer lymph node metastasis mainly uses methods such as in vitro transfection to pre-edit the genes of tumor cells derived from in-situ lesions, and then injects them into the footpads of mice to observe the changes in their metastatic ability. There is a lack of a more clinically relevant spontaneous cervical cancer lymph node metastasis model for lymph node metastasis-related research. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a cervical cancer lymph node high-metastasis model with more clinical relevance for spontaneous cervical cancer lymph node metastasis and a preparation method thereof.

[0019] Further, the mouse is a C57BL / 6 mouse.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0021] The present invention has isolated a highly metastatic cell line U14-LNM3 of cervical cancer lymph nodes with strong lymph node metastasis ability, which is more similar to the spontaneous cervical cancer lymph node metastasis in clinical practice, and is conducive to providing an economical, reliable, and highly reproducible animal model and in vitro cell model for basic research related to cervical cancer lymph node metastasis, and providing multiple cell lines for verification in related research.

[0024] To better illustrate the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. Other materials, reagents, etc. used in the embodiments can be obtained from commercial channels without special instructions.

[0025] Example 1 Isolation of cervical cancer lymph node highly metastatic cell line U14-LNM3

[0026] As Figure 1 shown in A, the mouse cervical cancer cell line U14-GFP with GFP (green fluorescent protein) fluorescence and Puromycin resistance was cultured in vitro, and mycoplasma was regularly removed and relevant detections were carried out.

[0027] U14-GFP cells in good growth state were injected into the left footpad of 5-week-old female C57BL / 6 mice at a dose of 1.5 million cells per mouse to construct a popliteal lymph node highly metastatic model, and the primary cancer and lymph node metastatic lesions of the mice were monitored under a stereomicroscope. Four weeks after inoculating U14-GFP cells, the mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation under anesthesia. The popliteal lymph nodes of the mice were obtained under sterile conditions and washed 3 times with PBS (phosphate buffer) containing penicillin / streptomycin double antibody with a final concentration of 3% (w / v) (300 U / mL penicillin, 300 μg / mL streptomycin) to obtain the washed popliteal lymph nodes.

[0028] Prepare the working solution: Mix 2 mL of 0.5% (w / v) matrix collagenase, 200 μL of Dnase I (deoxyribonuclease I) and 200 μL of Dispase II (dispase II), and preheat at 37 °C; Add the washed popliteal lymph nodes and the working solution to gentleMACS TMIn the C tube, grind for 15 min with a fully automatic tissue processor (brand: Miltenyi Biotec, model: 130-096-427) to obtain the digested tissue liquid. Filter the digested tissue liquid through a 70 μm cell sieve, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min to obtain cell pellets, wash the cell pellets once with PBS, resuspend the cell pellets with DMEM medium containing 10% (v / v) fetal bovine serum. After sorting with a flow cytometer, use DMEM (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium) complete cell medium supplemented with Puromycin at a final concentration of 2 μg / mL, 10% (v / v) FBS (fetal bovine serum), and 1% (w / v) penicillin / streptomycin double antibody (100 U / mL penicillin, 100 μg / mL streptomycin), and culture in a 37 °C, 5% CO 2 cell incubator to obtain purified cells U14-LNM.

[0029] Inject U14-LNM into the mouse footpads again according to the method of this example to enable secondary cell metastasis. After re-isolation and culture, U14-LNM2 is obtained; inject U14-LNM2 into the mouse footpads again according to the method of this example to enable tertiary cell metastasis, thereby obtaining highly metastatic cervical cancer lymph node cells U14-LNM3.

[0030] Example 2 Identification of highly metastatic cervical cancer lymph node cells U14-LNM3

[0031] I. Experimental method

[0032] Wash the parental cells U14-GFP with good growth status in Example 1, highly lymph node metastatic cells U14-LNM, U14-LNM2, and U14-LNM3 with different lymph node metastasis times twice with PBS, digest the cells with 1 mL of 0.25% (w / v) trypsin for 3 min, add DMEM medium containing 10% (v / v) fetal bovine serum equal in volume to the trypsin to neutralize the trypsin, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min, wash the cells twice with PBS to obtain digested cells, and inject them into the footpads of female C57BL / 6 mice at a dose of 1.5 million per mouse.

[0033] Regularly observe the tumor formation in the mouse footpads and the size of the corresponding popliteal lymph nodes. At the predetermined time point, sacrifice the mice by cervical dislocation after anesthesia, take their lymph nodes, fix, embed, section, and stain them to compare the lymph node metastasis of the parental cells U14-GFP, highly lymph node metastatic cells U14-LNM, U14-LNM2, and U14-LNM3 with different lymph node metastasis times.

[0034] 2. Compare the differences in migration and invasion abilities between cervical cancer lymph node metastatic cells and parental cells

[0035] According to the method of step 1 of this embodiment, the parental cells U14-GFP with good growth status in Example 1, the highly lymph node metastatic cells U14-LNM, U14-LNM2, and U14-LNM3 with different lymph node metastasis times were digested respectively to obtain digested cells.

[0036] Resuspend the digested cells with serum-free DMEM medium and inoculate them onto the upper layer of a transwell chamber (a permeable cell culture chamber) at a density of 50,000 cells / 250 μL. Add 500 μL of complete DMEM cell medium containing 10% (v / v) fetal bovine serum and 1% (w / v) penicillin / streptomycin double antibody to the lower layer of the chamber. Incubate in a 37 °C, 5% CO 2 cell incubator for 24 h. After 24 h, take out the transwell chamber, wash it twice with PBS, gently wipe the cells on the upper chamber with a clean cotton swab, fix the transwell chamber in 4% (w / v) paraformaldehyde at room temperature for 15 min, stain with crystal violet for 15 min, wash the cells 5 - 6 times with PBS, and observe and photograph under a microscope.

[0037] II. Experimental Results

[0038] As Figure 1 shown in Figure 2 B, U14-LNM3 has a stronger lymph node metastasis ability compared to the parental cell lines U14-GFP, U14-LNM, and U14-LNM2. As

[0039] shown, U14-LNM3 has stronger migration and invasion abilities compared to the parental cell lines U14-GFP, U14-LNM, and U14-LNM2.
