Problems solved by technology

Because tumor cells are often in a state of dedifferentiation, tumor cells in the circulation are often highly heterogeneous, and some mutated tumor cells often escape capture due to the low specificity and low efficiency of the capture system, resulting in the phenomenon of slipping through the net. and get false negative results, leading to wrong diagnoses

Embodiment 1

[0027] The circulating tumor cell detection instrument listed in this embodiment includes a cell capture system, an analysis and counting system, and a waste bin. The analysis and counting system includes a fluorescence microscope and a high-throughput cell image analyzer. The circulating tumor cell detection instrument is also equipped with Computer interface, through the computer to control the analysis and counting system.

[0028] Referring to Fig. 1, the workflow of the circulating tumor cell detection instrument is as follows: an optimized cell protection agent is placed in the blood sample storage tube, and the blood sample is collected and stored by using the blood sample storage tube; The antibody has immunomagnetic microbeads made of homologous secondary antibody magnetic beads, and the sample blood in the blood sample storage tube is placed in the functional enrichment box of the cell capture system, and the immunomagnetic microbeads and the target cells in the sampl...

Embodiment 2

[0032] The use process of the functional enrichment box of the cell capture system

[0033] Open the functional enrichment package, the size is 10cm 3 , draw 7.5ml of peripheral blood sample with a syringe equipped with a sampling needle, anticoagulate with 3.8% sodium citrate 1 / 10 volume and centrifuge for 10min, 3000 rpm; draw the white blood cell layer in the middle, and put an equal volume of sterile double distilled water at room temperature Let stand for 5 minutes, centrifuge for 20 minutes; wash off the hemolyzed body in the supernatant, add an equal amount of normal saline, and centrifuge for 15 minutes; aspirate and discard the supernatant, add an equal amount of normal saline, centrifuge for 15 minutes, and save the obtained cells. Use a 1.0ml syringe to draw 0.5ml immunomagnetic microsphere sample, add it to a functional enrichment tube for incubation; after incubation for 30min, stain the cells, add phosphate buffer solution (pH=7.4, 0.1mol / L) to wash for 1-3 time...

Embodiment 3

[0035] Immunostaining analysis of tumor cells

[0036] Blank magnetic balls and immunomagnetic balls loaded with Epcam antibody were used to "capture" breast cancer tumor cells for immunostaining, and observed under a fluorescent microscope, as shown in image 3 with Figure 4 Shown:

[0037] It can be seen from the figure that the ability of the immune magnetic ball loaded with Epcam antibody to capture breast cancer cells is significantly higher than that of the blank magnetic ball.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of breast cancer circulating tumor cell detection, in particular to a breast cancer circulating tumor cell detection system and a kit. Background technique [0002] Cancer is one of the major diseases that plague human life. Now the average annual cancer incidence rate is about 22%. Has basically spread, drugs are difficult to treat. The most important thing to beat cancer is early detection, most early cancers can be cured. Initially, the disordered growth of cancer cells made them lose their ability to adhere to each other. Loose tumor cells can enter blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, and enter blood circulation or lymph circulation. Cells that metastasize through blood circulation are called circulating tumor cells (circulating tumor cells). tumor cells; CTCs). In the early stage of tumor metastasis, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can plant in distant organs along the circulatory system and gradually form met...
