Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a polymer-coated glass substrate.
Background Art
[0002] In order to produce an instrument for adsorbing specific cells (blood cells, cancer cells, stem cells, T cells, etc.) in blood and body fluids, a technique of coating the surface of a substrate with a special polymer has been proposed.
[0003] However, there is a concern that while specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells are adsorbed on the surface of the substrate, blood cells are also adsorbed. Therefore, there is a demand for providing a polymer-coated substrate that can more selectively adsorb specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells while suppressing the adsorption of normal cells such as blood cells.
Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] An object of the present invention is to provide a polymer-coated glass substrate that solves the above problems, suppresses the adsorption of normal cells such as blood cells, and can selectively adsorb specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0005] The present invention is a polymer-coated glass substrate in which one or two or more polymer layers are formed on the surface of a glass substrate, wherein the glass is soda-lime glass having a contact angle of bubbles in water of 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less, and the surface of the outermost layer of the polymer layer has an elastic modulus of 1.20 MPa or less in water or an aqueous solution.
Effects of the Invention
[0006] According to the present invention, there is provided a polymer-coated glass substrate having one or more polymer layers formed on the surface of a glass substrate, wherein the glass is soda-lime glass having a contact angle of air bubbles in water of 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less, and the surface of the outermost layer of the polymer layer is a polymer-coated glass substrate having an elastic modulus of 1.20 MPa or less in water or an aqueous solution. Therefore, adsorption of normal cells such as blood cells is suppressed, and selective adsorption of specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells is possible. Accordingly, improvement in the adsorption performance of specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells can be expected with the polymer-coated glass substrate.
Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
[0007] The above polymer-coated glass substrate is a polymer-coated glass substrate having one or more polymer layers formed on the surface of a glass substrate, wherein the glass is soda-lime glass having a contact angle of air bubbles in water of 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less, and the surface of the outermost layer of the polymer layer has an elastic modulus of 1.20 MPa or less in water or an aqueous solution.
[0008] Tumor cells (such as cancer cells) that appear in body fluids such as circulating tumor cells in blood (several to several hundred cells / 1 mL of blood) are extremely few in number. To use them for testing, it is considered important to adsorb as many tumor cells present in the collected body fluid as possible. The polymer-coated glass substrate uses soda-lime glass as the glass substrate coated with the polymer, and the contact angle of air bubbles in water is 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less. In addition, the elastic modulus of the outermost surface layer of the polymer layer formed on the substrate surface in water or an aqueous solution is 1.20 MPa or less. It is generally known that specific cells such as cancer cells are softer than normal cells such as blood cells. This is related to the fact that when specific cells such as cancer cells metastasize, they greatly deform the shape of the cells and move through the gaps. For this reason, normal cells such as blood cells that are difficult to deform and hard are less likely to be adsorbed to a polymer substrate with a soft surface. On the other hand, specific cells such as cancer cells that have acquired deformability are likely to be adsorbed even on a polymer substrate with a soft surface. Also, if the elastic modulus of the surface is too low, the adsorptivity will conversely decrease. That is, there is an optimal value for the elastic modulus of the surface. In the above polymer-coated glass substrate, soda-lime glass with a contact angle of air bubbles in water of 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less is used as the glass substrate, and one or more polymer layers with an elastic modulus of the surface in water or an aqueous solution of 1.20 MPa or less are formed on such a substrate. It is possible to significantly exert the effect of selectively adsorbing specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells while suppressing the adsorption of normal cells such as blood cells. By measuring the number of tumor cells adsorbed on the polymer layer of the polymer-coated glass substrate, the number of tumor cells in the body fluid can be known, and it is possible to expect confirmation of the cancer treatment effect and the like. In addition, by culturing the adsorbed tumor cells and confirming the efficacy of anticancer drugs and the like with the cultured cells, it is possible to confirm the efficacy of anticancer drugs and the like outside the body before administration of the anticancer drugs and the like, and at the same time, it is also useful for the selection of anticancer drugs and the like. Furthermore, by performing genetic analysis of the adsorbed tumor cells, it is useful for the selection of anticancer drugs and the like. Also, genetic analysis is performed on the adsorbed or cultured tumor cells to examine the mutation state and expression state of the tumor cells, which can be used for the selection of anticancer drugs and the like or for elucidating the mechanism of cancer.

The hydrophilic polymers having different molecular weights may include two polymers of the same polymer having different molecular weights (for example, a blend of polymers containing poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) having a number average molecular weight of 16,000 and poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) having a number average molecular weight of 80,000), or may include polymers having different molecular weights of different polymers (polymers having different structures) (for example, a blend of polymers containing poly(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) having a number average molecular weight of 16,000 and polyacryloylmorpholine having a number average molecular weight of 80,000).

[0074] The above polymer layer can be formed on all or part of the surface of a glass substrate to produce a polymer-coated glass substrate by known methods such as (1) injecting a polymer solution or dispersion in which the polymer is dissolved or dispersed in various solvents onto the surface of the glass substrate (such as in a substrate recess), holding for a predetermined time, and drying; or (2) coating (spraying) the polymer solution or dispersion onto the surface of the glass substrate and drying if necessary. Then, by adding other components to the polymer-coated glass substrate as needed, an apparatus capable of adsorbing, culturing, and inspecting specific cells can be manufactured.
[0075] Conventionally known materials and methods can be applied to the solvent, injection method, coating (spraying) method, etc. The holding and drying times in (1) and (2) can be appropriately set according to the size of the substrate, the type of liquid to be introduced, etc. The holding time is preferably 10 seconds to 10 hours, more preferably 1 minute to 5 hours, and even more preferably 5 minutes to 2 hours.

Further, after holding for a certain time, the excess polymer solution or dispersion may be appropriately discharged and then dried.
[0076] The solvent is not particularly limited as long as it can dissolve the polymer, and can be appropriately selected according to the polymer to be used. For example, water, organic solvents, and mixed solvents thereof can be mentioned. Examples of organic solvents include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, i-propanol, and methoxypropanol; ketones such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, toluene, etc.

[0078] The outermost surface layer of the one or more polymer layers formed on the surface of the glass substrate has an elastic modulus in water or an aqueous solution of 1.20 MPa or less. From the viewpoint of suppressing the adsorption of normal cells such as blood cells and selectively adsorbing specific cells such as cancer cells, the elastic modulus is preferably 1.00 MPa or less, more preferably 0.85 MPa or less, and still more preferably 0.75 MPa or less. The lower limit is preferably 0.02 MPa or more, more preferably 0.04 MPa or more, still more preferably 0.45 MPa or more, and particularly preferably 0.50 MPa or more.
[0079] The elastic modulus in water or an aqueous solution of the surface of the outermost surface layer can be adjusted by changing the molecular weight and film thickness of the polymer forming the outermost surface layer. Specifically, as the molecular weight of the polymer increases, the elastic modulus tends to increase, and as the film thickness of the polymer layer increases, the elastic modulus tends to decrease. The elastic modulus in water or an aqueous solution of the surface of the outermost surface layer can also be adjusted by previously subjecting the glass substrate to surface treatments such as primer treatment and silane coupling agent treatment.
[0080] In this specification, unless otherwise specified, the elastic modulus in water or an aqueous solution of the surface of the outermost surface layer means the elastic modulus in water or an aqueous solution measured using an atomic force microscope (AFM).
[0081] An atomic force microscope (AFM) is a type of scanning probe microscope that detects the force acting between the atoms of a sample and a probe. The probe is attached to the tip of a cantilever (a single-sided spring), and while changing the distance between the sample and the probe, the force (deflection amount) acting on the cantilever is measured to obtain a curve (force curve) plotting the relationship between the two. By analyzing this force curve, the elastic modulus (hardness) of the sample surface can be determined, and the elastic modulus can be measured at the nanolevel. The method of obtaining the elastic modulus of the sample surface by force curve measurement is a method known to those skilled in the art, and it is possible to obtain the elastic modulus by such a known method.
[0082] As a method for calculating the elastic modulus from the force curve, for example, there is a method of fitting the force curve by the JKR (Johnson - Kendall - Roberts) theory to calculate the elastic modulus. In the JKR theory, the force F applied to the cantilever and the sample deformation amount δ are expressed by the following formulas (1) and (2) with the adhesion energy as w. [Number] In the formula, a represents the radius of the contact line between the probe and the sample, R represents the radius of curvature of the probe tip, and K represents the elastic coefficient.
[0083] The elastic modulus can be obtained by fitting the F - δ curve obtained by force curve measurement and the formulas (1) and (2).
[0084] Here, the elastic modulus of the surface of the outermost surface layer in water or an aqueous solution specifically means the measured value measured by the following method. The measured value of the surface of the outermost surface layer in water or an aqueous solution can be measured by AFM by dropping water or an aqueous solution onto the surface of the outermost surface layer of the sample so that a liquid droplet (convex meniscus) is formed. As the aqueous solution, for example, phosphate - buffered saline (PBS) can be preferably used.
[0085] And the elastic modulus of the sample (the surface of the outermost surface layer) can be obtained, for example, by scanning within a predetermined range on the surface of the outermost surface layer of the sample, obtaining force curves at a large number of points within the predetermined range, calculating the elastic modulus from each force curve, and calculating the average value.
[0086] The polymer-coated glass substrate produced by the foregoing method has one or more polymer layers formed on the surface of a glass substrate composed of soda-lime glass having a contact angle of bubbles in water of 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less, and the elastic modulus of the outermost surface layer of the polymer layer in water or an aqueous solution is 1.20 MPa or less, and the surface is soft. Therefore, the above polymer-coated glass substrate has low adsorbability to normal cells such as blood cells, while having high adsorbability to specific cells such as cancer cells, stem cells, and T cells, and is excellent in selective adsorbability of specific cells.
