Een werkwijze van gerichte Cell Isolation via Glasoppervlak functionalisering
Summary
This protocol describes customizable surface functionalization of the desthiobiotin, streptavidin, and APTES system in order to isolate specific cell types of interest. In addition, this manuscript covers the applications, optimization, and verification of this process.
Abstract
One of the limiting factors to the adoption and advancement of personalized medicine is the inability to develop diagnostic tools to probe individual nuances in expression from patient to patient. Current methodologies that try to separate cells to fill this niche result in disruption of physiological expression, making the separation technique useless as a diagnostic tool. In this protocol, we describe the functionalization and optimization of a surface for the cellular capture and release. This functionalized surface integrates biotinylated antibodies with a glass surface functionalized with an aminosilane (APTES), desthiobiotin and streptavidin. Cell release is facilitated through the introduction of biotin, allowing the recollection and purification of cells captured by the surface. This release is done through the targeting of the secondary moiety desthiobiotin, which results in a much more gentle release paradigm. This reduction in harsh reagents and shear forces reduces changes in cellular expression. The functionalized surface captures up to 80% of cells in a single cell mixture and has demonstrated 50% capture in a dual-cell mixture. Applications of this technology to xenografts and cancer separation studies are investigated. Quantification techniques for surface verification such as plate reader and ImageJ analyses are described as well.
Introduction
Huidige bench-top cel scheiding benaderingen (bijvoorbeeld fluorescentie-geactiveerde celsortering 1, laser capture micro-dissectie 2, immuno-magnetische kraal scheiding 1) kan enkele uren van voorbereiding en het sorteren te nemen. Deze grote tijdschalen kunnen beïnvloeden fysiologische respons en expressieniveaus, waardoor analyses die niet representatief zijn voor de fysiologische respons 3. Systemen nodig die snel en efficiënt specifieke celtypen isoleren zonder verstoring van celoppervlak receptor-niveaus om cel isolatie en verrijking voor biomedische applicaties te verbeteren. Daarom is de reden voor de aanpak is om een zachte benadering voor celisolatie ontwikkelen.
De 'lab on a chip' concept biedt de belofte van ordes van grootte sneller (uren tot minuten) cel isolatie, en het vaakst gaat om het vastleggen van de cellen op een oppervlak en het vrijgeven van cellen of intracellulaire conteNTS door fysieke 4,5 of chemische methoden 6. Hoewel deze benaderingen bieden enkele voordelen zoals het identificeren van eiwit-expressie 7,8 identificeren RNA expressie 9-11, of waardoor zelfs cellen in vitro kweek 12,13, veel van deze technieken niet vertaald diagnostiek zoals celreceptor profilering wijten van de niet-fysiologische omgevingen. Enzymatische tillen middelen zoals collagenasen kan ook invloed hebben op deze receptor hoeveelheden 14,15, wat betekent cel receptor kwantificering technieken die deze opheffen van agenten zal niet het genereren van nauwkeurige fysiologische gegevens. Cellulaire lysis voorkomt differentiatie tussen de inheemse oppervlak receptoren, en degenen die voorheen werden geïnternaliseerd 16. Dit protocol beschrijft een snelle en zachte aanpak voor mobiele isolement.
