Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of bioengineering, and particularly relates to a method for preparing soluble prokaryotic recombinant PRL. Background Art

[0002] Prolactin (PRL), also known as luteotropic hormone or luteotropin, is a protein hormone secreted by acidophilic cells in the anterior pituitary gland. Its main functions are to promote breast development and growth, stimulate and maintain lactation, and stimulate the generation of follicle LH receptors. The secretion of PRL shows pulsatile fluctuations and obvious circadian rhythm changes. The regulation of PRL secretion is mainly controlled by the prolactin release inhibitory hormone secreted by the hypothalamus, and it is the only adenohypophyseal hormone that is in an inhibitory state under normal physiological conditions. Thyrotropin-releasing hormone, estrogen, and factors such as stress and sleep can promote the secretion of PRL through different pathways. Large doses of estrogen, progesterone, and dopamine can inhibit the secretion of prolactin. Sucking can also increase the secretion of prolactin. The continuous sucking of the baby stimulates the anterior pituitary gland to secrete prolactin, so that lactation can be maintained for several months to several years. At present, the detection of serum prolactin is mainly used to assist in the diagnosis of diseases such as pituitary tumors, hyperprolactinemia, and infertility. In recent years, the scientific community has conducted more and more research on human prolactin, and has a deeper understanding of the diseases caused by its abnormalities.

[0003] There is extensive expression of PRL receptors in breast cancer tumor cells, and it is significantly correlated with tumor size, grade, and histological subtype. Detecting circulating tumor cells in the peripheral blood of cancer patients plays an important role in the diagnosis, prognosis evaluation, treatment plan selection, metastasis and recurrence prediction of breast cancer. Markers such as PRL have important value in the diagnosis and evaluation of metastasis after breast cancer surgery. PRL is also an important indicator for diagnosing infertility. The content of PRL in serum can be used to diagnose infertility and sterility, reflect the growth and development level, and is also an important parameter for indicating endocrine diseases, immune diseases (such as lupus erythematosus), and nervous system diseases. Precise quantitative detection of PRL is of great significance for clinical diagnosis. Abnormal manifestations of hyperprolactinemia suggest the possibility of multiple diseases. The clinical detection of PRL requires antibodies prepared by immunizing animals with highly pure soluble PRL, or obtaining B cells for hybridoma expression of PRL monoclonal antibodies. No matter which way, it is inseparable from soluble PRL prepared by in vitro expression. At present, most of the PRL proteins expressed by recombinant prokaryotic expression disclosed in the prior art are insoluble proteins. After expression, inclusion bodies need to be washed and purified and then renatured, resulting in a long production cycle and high cost, which is not conducive to the development and use of PRL detection reagents.
