Embodiment 2

[0074] Example 2: Verification test of physicochemical properties of modified exosomes

[0075] like Figure 4 As shown, the viral packaging cell HEK293T was infected with the virus expressing the fusion protein CD9-HuR constructed in Example 1 to obtain virus particles expressing the fusion protein. Bone marrow mesenchymal cells MSC were infected with the virus, and then cultured under serum-free conditions, exosomes were collected between 48 and 72 hours, and exosomes were extracted through the exosome isolation and extraction kit ExoQuick. Identify the number, size, and fusion expression efficiency of exosomes.

[0076] like Figure 5 As shown, the collected exosomes were diluted with PBS at 1:1000, and then the number and size of exosomes were identified by Nanosight, and it was found that the size of exosomes was within the range of 40-200nm.

[0077] like Image 6 As shown, the shape of the exosomes was further clarified by electron microscopy, and the modified exoso...

Embodiment 4

[0079] Example 4: Nucleic acid loading test of modified exosomes

[0080] Infect the exosome packaging cells with the constructed virus expressing the fusion protein CD9-HuR, then transfect the exosome packaging cells with miR155 or dCas9-ARE to be loaded, and then culture them under serum-free conditions for 48 to 72 hours. Exosomes were collected in between, and exosomes were extracted by exosome separation and extraction method.

[0081] (1) Loading and delivery of miR155

[0082] miR155 was directly synthesized.

[0083] The constructed virus expressing the fusion protein CD9-HuR was used to infect the exosome packaging cells, and then the exosome packaging cells were simultaneously transfected with miR155 to be loaded, then cultured under serum-free conditions, and the exosome packaging cells were collected between 48 and 72 hours. Exosomes are extracted by exosome isolation and extraction methods.

[0084] The loading, delivery and intervention efficiency of exosomes ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an expression vector of a fusion protein for enhancing target RNA loading into an exosome and an establishment method and application thereof. The expression vector comprises atarget RNA binding protein sequence and an exosome membrane targeting protein sequence. The target RNA binding protein sequence comprises an RNA binding protein complete sequence or an RNA binding structural domain sequence. The exosome membrane targeting protein sequence can be localized in the exosome. In addition, the establishment method of the expression vector of the fusion protein for enhancing target RNA loading into the exosome is designed. The exosome containing the expression vector of the fusion protein for enhancing target RNA loading is prepared. The expression vector or the exosome is applied to targeting delivery of gene treatment and RNA regulated relevant disease treatment. Efficient candidate RNA molecule loading can be achieved, and meanwhile cellular endogenous RNA loading of the exosome is decreased. The expression vector can serve as an optimized vector for targeting delivery of gene treatment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of molecular biology, in particular to an expression vector for a fusion protein that enhances loading of target RNA into exosomes and its construction method and application. Background technique [0002] Exosomes refer to small membrane vesicles containing complex RNA and proteins, which are mainly derived from the multivesicular bodies formed by the invagination of intracellular lysosomal particles, and are released into the extracellular matrix after the fusion of the multivesicular outer membrane and the cell membrane middle. CD9 is a four-time transmembrane molecule, which is the hallmark membrane molecule of exosomes. At present, many studies have reported that the tracking of exosomes can be achieved by modifying the CD9 molecule, such as by fusing with EGFP, and the targeting of exosomes can be enhanced by fusing the extracellular segment of CD9 with a targeting peptide. [0003] RNA-binding prote...
