摘要
目的采用超顺磁性氧化铁纳米颗粒(superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles,SPIONs)标记靶向癌胚抗原(carcinoembryonic antigen,CEA)的嵌合抗原受体T细胞(chimeric antigen receptor T cells,CAR-T细胞),并进行体外磁共振成像研究,为监测CEA CAR-T细胞的体内回输治疗提供依据。方法将ferumoxytol、肝素钠和硫酸鱼精蛋白分别以高(ferumoxytol 100μg/mL,肝素钠4 IU/mL,硫酸鱼精蛋白120μg/mL)、中(ferumoxytol 50μg/mL,肝素钠2 IU/mL,硫酸鱼精蛋白60μg/mL)、低(ferumoxytol 25μg/mL,肝素钠1 IU/mL,硫酸鱼精蛋白30μg/mL)剂量混合形成SPIONs复合物FHP(ferumoxytol/heparin/protamine),然后与CEA CAR-T细胞共孵育进行细胞标记。CCK-8、EdU和流式细胞术检测FHP对细胞的生物相容性,普鲁士蓝染色检测细胞对FHP的摄入情况,电感耦合等离子体-质谱法(inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry,ICP-MS)定量检测细胞中Fe含量,流式细胞术检测FHP标记的CEA CAR-T细胞对肿瘤细胞的杀伤作用,磁共振成像(magnetic resonance imaging,MRI)扫描FHP标记的CEA CAR-T细胞。结果高、中、低剂量的FHP对CEA CAR-T细胞的活力没有明显影响,CCK-8实验显示细胞活性均在100%以上;EdU实验显示各组细胞DNA复制活性均在94.3%以上。普鲁士蓝染色显示CEA CAR-T细胞可摄取FHP,且随FHP浓度的增加,摄取量增大。ICP-MS进一步检测显示胞内Fe含量为(440.23±189.36)ng/mL。肿瘤细胞杀伤实验表明FHP标记的CEA CAR-T细胞的杀伤肿瘤细胞能力良好。MRI扫描显示随着FHP浓度的增高,FHP标记的CEA CAR-T细胞T2WI信号呈明显降低趋势(P<0.01)。结论SPIONs复合物FHP具有良好的生物相容性并能够有效标记CEA CAR-T细胞,可作为CEA CAR-T细胞的磁标记物,为临床提供一种可行的MRI示踪方法。
Objective To use superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles(SPIONs)to label chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)T cells targeting carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),and perform magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)to real time trace CEA CAR-T cells in vivo.Methods Appropriate amount of ferumoxytol,heparin sodium and protamine sulfate were mixed at high(ferumoxytol 100μg/mL,heparin sodium 4 IU/mL,protamine sulfate 120μg/mL),medium(ferumoxytol 50μg/mL,heparin sodium 2 IU/mL,protamine sulfate 60μg/mL),and low(ferumoxytol 25μg/mL,heparin sodium 1 IU/mL,protamine sulfate 30μg/mL)concentrations to form a SPIONs complex ferumoxytol/heparin/protamine(FHP),and then co-incubated with CEA CAR-T cells for cell labeling.The biocompatibility of FHP was detected by CCK-8 assay,EdU assay and flow cytometry.The uptake of FHP was detected by Prussian blue staining,and SPIONs content in the cells was quantitatively detected by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry(ICP-MS).Flow cytometry was used to detect the lytic effect of FHP-labeled CEA CAR-T cells on tumor cells,and MRI was employed to scan FHP-labeled CEA CAR-T cells.Results FHP at high,medium,and low concentrations had no significant effect on the activity of CEA CAR-T cells,with cell activity above 100%determined by CCK-8 assay.DNA proliferation was above 94.3%in EdU assays.Prussian blue staining showed that CEA CAR-T cells could take FHP up,with the uptake increased with the increment of FHP concentration.ICP-MS showed that the intracellular Fe content was 440.23±189.36 ng/mL.Tumor cell killing experiment showed that FHP-labeled CEA CAR-T cells had excellent killing capability against tumor cells.MRI scans indicated that T2WI signals of FHP-labeled CEA CAR-T cells were significantly reduced with increasing FHP concentration(P<0.01).Conclusion SPIONs complex FHP shows good biocompatibility and can effectively label CEA CAR-T cells.SPIONs complex FHP can be used as a magnetic marker for CEA CAR-T cells and a feasible MRI tracer for clinical application.
