Abstract

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are expected to serve as a blood-based biomarker in the diagnosis of cancers at an early stage, providing an opportunity to increase the survival of cancer patients. Current techniques for CTC detection were designed for some particular types of cancer with confirmed primary tumor origin. In this work, a platform for the detection of two cancer types and the identification of the primary tumor origin of CTCs was established to meet the requirement of cancer diagnosis and clinical application. A combined strategy based on in vivo capture method using antibody cocktail and multicolor fluorescence imaging using aptamer was designed to achieve the high-efficiency capture of CTCs and the accurate location of the primary tumor. An antibody cocktail of epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was applied to capture breast cancer CTCs and hepatocellular CTCs in vivo. The capture efficiency of hepatocellular CTCs was significantly increased from 3.17% to 26.67% and the capture efficiency of breast cancer CTCs slightly increased from 27.00% to 29.84% compared with EpCAM-based capture of CTCs. Meanwhile, the primary tumor origins of breast cancer CTCs and hepatocellular CTCs were simultaneously distinguished by specific aptamer-based fluorescence probes without any signal crosstalk. The results of in vivo experiments using the dual tumor-bearing mouse model confirmed the feasibility of this method to capture CTCs and identify primary tumor origins. This simple and efficient approach has potential for future applications in cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

摘要

循环肿瘤细胞(CTCs)有望成为早期癌症诊断的血液生物标志物,为提高癌症患者的生存率提供机会。目前用于 CTC 检测的技术是为某些具有明确原发肿瘤起源的特定类型癌症设计的。在这项工作中,建立了一种用于检测两种癌症类型和鉴定 CTC 原发肿瘤起源的平台,以满足癌症诊断和临床应用的要求。设计了一种基于抗体鸡尾酒的体内捕获方法和基于适体的多色荧光成像的联合策略,以实现 CTC 的高效捕获和原发肿瘤的准确定位。应用上皮细胞黏附分子(EpCAM)和表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)的抗体鸡尾酒在体内捕获乳腺癌 CTC 和肝细胞癌 CTC。与基于 EpCAM 的 CTC 捕获相比,肝细胞癌 CTC 的捕获效率从 3.17%显著提高到 26.67%,乳腺癌 CTC 的捕获效率从 27.00%略有提高到 29.84%。同时,通过特异性基于适体的荧光探针,无需任何信号串扰,同时区分了乳腺癌 CTC 和肝细胞癌 CTC 的原发肿瘤起源。使用双肿瘤荷瘤小鼠模型的体内实验结果证实了该方法捕获 CTC 和鉴定原发肿瘤起源的可行性。这种简单高效的方法具有在癌症诊断和预后中的应用潜力。
