Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a single-molecule joint detection method for Alzheimer's disease markers Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, and P-Tau181. Background Art

[0002] Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common dementia, also known as neurodegenerative disease or neurodegenerative disease. The current diagnostic methods used in clinical practice include clinical evaluation, neuropsychological testing, and imaging examinations (such as magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography). However, the above methods have certain subjectivity and limitations and cannot provide sufficient accuracy and sensitivity for early diagnosis.

[0003] For patients with Alzheimer's disease, commonly used biological markers in clinical practice include amyloid-β (Aβ40, amyloid-β, Aβ), phosphorylated tau (p-tau), etc. Aβ is a polypeptide containing 39 to 43 amino acids produced by the proteolysis of APP by β- and γ-secretases, mainly Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42. It can be produced by a variety of cells and circulates in the blood, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain interstitium. Most of them are bound to chaperone protein molecules, and a few exist in a free state. The Aβ amyloid cascade hypothesis believes that the imbalance between the production and clearance of Aβ in the brain is the main cause of Alzheimer's disease. Aβ oligomers will directly inhibit long-term potentiation in the hippocampus and damage synapses, ultimately leading to neurotransmitter disorders and neurological dysfunction.

[0004] Phosphorylated tau protein (P-Tau) is formed by abnormal overphosphorylation of tau protein, also known as the pathological protein of AD. Studies have found that AD patients have 21 abnormal phospho-sites. Phosphorylation of multiple phospho-sites is more likely to lead to the loss of microtubule binding function of tau protein. Among them, Tau181, Tau199, Tau231, Tau396 and Tau404 are more studied. High concentrations of p-tau protein at the above sites have been detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of AD patients with high specificity and sensitivity. Studies have shown that in the early pathological changes of AD, the level of p-tau (181P) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid is low, and it also increases significantly as the disease progresses.

[0005] The above markers will be released or aggregated when the brain changes abnormally. Currently, their concentration or presence can be detected through blood, cerebrospinal fluid and other channels. The presence and increase of these markers can be used as important indicators for early diagnosis, disease progression monitoring and prognosis evaluation. However, for the clinical diagnosis of AD patients, although the accuracy of invasive measurement of cerebrospinal fluid can reach 80% to 90%, the sampling of cerebrospinal fluid will cause trauma to the patients, especially for the elderly with weak constitution, which is quite restrictive and not suitable for clinical promotion.

[0006] At present, the commonly used detection methods are as follows: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, colloidal gold method, immunoturbidimetry, chemiluminescence method, fluorescent immunochromatography and SiMoA single molecule detection technology. Among them, the colloidal gold method can quickly obtain diagnostic results, but the sensitivity is low, and the detection results of different manufacturers vary greatly. At present, this method is mostly used for qualitative analysis and cannot be further quantitatively analyzed, and there are certain limitations in the results; the traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has problems such as low sensitivity and large measurement differences, and it is difficult to achieve high sensitivity and stable detection; the amount of antigen or antibody in the immunoturbidimetry method must be greatly excessive, and soluble complexes may appear to cause errors, and the test results are also easily affected by lipemia; although the chemiluminescence method has a high degree of automation, a significant limitation of chemiluminescence products is its high cost, which has led to some hospitals being unable to purchase corresponding equipment and reagents due to budget constraints, which has greatly limited its promotion in some hospitals, and the detection sensitivity cannot reach the single molecule level. SiMoA single-molecule detection technology is a relatively new detection method. It is relatively expensive and the detection operation process is too cumbersome and complicated. Therefore, considering a series of factors such as detection cost, detection efficiency, detection reagent stability, and subsequent maintenance costs, the SiMoA system will inevitably face obvious obstacles when it is promoted to the clinical diagnosis market.

[0007] Therefore, designing a method for detecting biomarkers (Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, P-Tau181) in serum or plasma, which can improve the detection sensitivity, detect multiple biomarkers, and improve the detection specificity, is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0008] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a single-molecule joint detection method for Alzheimer's disease markers Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, and P-Tau181, which has important clinical value for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, disease typing, and evaluation of the therapeutic effect after medication.

[0009] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0019] The preparation method of EDC solution and NHS solution is as follows: dissolve EDC and NHS in coupling buffer respectively, and the concentrations thereof are both 10 mg / mL;

[0020] The microsphere blocking solution includes: borate buffer, 1% BSA, 0.24% ethanolamine; wherein the borate buffer includes 5mM boric acid, 11.2mM sodium tetraborate decahydrate, and 0.05% Tween-20;

[0022] The microsphere storage solution includes: 25mM Tris with a pH of 7.2±0.05, 150mM NaCI, 0.05% Tween-20, 1% BSA, 5% trehalose, and 0.1% ProClin 300.

[0023] Furthermore, the plate described in step 2 is a detection plate, and the steps of antibody coating the detection plate are: coating according to the Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, and P-Tau181 capture antibody concentration of 0.1-0.5ug / T, respectively, static coating of 100ul / T coating solution at 2-8°C for 16±1h, washing with washing solution for several times, adding 150ul / well blocking solution after patting dry, blocking at 37°C for 2h, washing with washing solution for several times, putting desiccant into the tinfoil bag after patting dry, and setting aside for use.

[0024] Further, the coating solution includes 0.1M sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate;

The higher the antigen concentration, the more fluorescent particles there are;

[0033] (2) By analyzing the number of fluorescent particles and matching the standard curve to quantify the content of (Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, P-Tau), the antigen concentration can be judged by the number of fluorescent particles, thus avoiding the influence of lipemia / hemolysis on the test results.

[0035] In summary, the present invention adopts digital fluorescent immunoadsorption technology, and the combined detection of three markers, Aβ1-42, Aβ1-40, and P-Tau181, has important clinical value for the early diagnosis of AD, risk stratification of the disease, timely symptomatic treatment of patients, and prognosis judgment. The technology has high detection sensitivity that can reach the single molecule detection level (fg / mL), high specificity, and convenient and fast automated detection.
