Problems solved by technology

The content of free miRNA in the blood is low. Usually, the amount of free RNA extracted from 100 μl of whole blood is about 0.2ng–3.5ng, which is far below the requirement for the initial amount of the library construction kit, so this type of kit cannot be used Construct a library; sufficient RNA can be extracted by increasing the amount of blood taken, but it may cause a certain burden on the subjects

Embodiment 1

[0062] Example 1: Obtaining a free miRNA sequencing library

[0063] For blood samples, the following method was used to obtain the free miRNA sequencing library:

[0064] (1) Collect 100 μl of human peripheral blood with a dry blood collection tube (non-anticoagulated), let it stand at 4°C for more than half an hour, then centrifuge at 400g for 10 minutes at 4°C to take the supernatant, and then centrifuge at 1800g for 10 minutes at 4°C to take the supernatant , obtain a serum sample (volume is about 30 μ l);

[0065] (2) Using miRNeasy Serum / Plasma Kit (Qiagen, product number 217184), extract a total of about 200pg of free RNA from serum samples, dilute it with ultrapure water (no DNase and RNase, the same below) to a total volume of 4 μl, and placed in a 200 μl thin-walled PCR tube.

[0066] (3) Add 1 μl of exogenous RNA to free RNA and mix well (that is, exogenous RNA and free RNA are mixed according to 50:1), the concentration of exogenous RNA is 10ng / μl, the length of ...

Embodiment 2

[0078] Example 2: Quantification of expression of miRNA

[0079] The obtained miRNA sequencing library was subjected to the following next-generation sequencing and data analysis to obtain the expression level RPM of miRNA:

[0080] (1) Send the miRNA sequencing library to the Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencing platform for sequencing, the sequencing read length is 75bp, and the sequencing mode is single-end sequencing, and obtain off-machine data;

[0081] (2) For the off-machine data, use FastQC, Cutadpat and Trimmomatic for data quality control and preprocessing (using default parameters) to obtain valid data with low-quality sequences and sequencing adapters removed; then the random tag sequence S2 in RA5 And the fixed base S3 is removed from the 5' end of the sequence of the valid data; then use the sequence comparison software Bowtie to re-align the obtained sequence to the human reference genome sequence (up to 1 base mismatch is allowed), and obtain the location at Locat...

Embodiment 3

[0084] Embodiment 3: the comparison of the method of the present application and prior art

[0085] In order to verify that the blood free miRNA library preparation and expression quantification method of the present application can produce reliable results, the miRNA sequencing results obtained by using the existing mainstream Illumina library construction kits were compared here.

[0086] From the same blood-donating individual in Example 1, at the same time and place, collect 30ml of peripheral blood with a dry blood collection tube (non-anticoagulated), and use the same method as in Example 1 to obtain a total amount of serum free RNA of about 1ug ; Subsequently, the control group: use the Illumina TruSeq Small RNA Library Preparation Kit (Catalog No.: RS-200-0012) for library preparation, see the kit operation instructions for the library construction method (the kit Contains no exogenous RNA, nor adapter sequences random tag sequence S2) ;After the sequencing library i...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and kit for preparing a library of free miRNAs in blood, and the method mainly comprises the following steps: (a) separating serum or plasma from blood, and extracting free RNAs; (b) mixing the free RNA with exogenous RNA, wherein any part of an exogenous RNA sequence is not overlapped with a known miRNA sequence of a human / rat / mouse; (c) adding a linker to the RNA mixture in the step (b), carrying out reverse transcription on the first strand and the second strand for synthesis and amplification, and recovering the target DNA fragment to obtain the free miRNAsequencing library. The invention further relates to a miRNA expression quantification method. The method comprises the steps (a), (b) and (c), the miRNA sequencing library is subjected to next-generation sequencing and data analysis, in the data analysis, the S2 random tag sequence of the adaptor RA5 can be used as a quantification tag, the PCR repetitive sequence is removed, and the detection accuracy is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, more specifically, to a method and a kit for preparing and quantifying expression of a free miRNA library in blood. Background technique [0002] MicroRNA (microRNA, miRNA) is a kind of non-coding short RNA with a length of about 19-25 nucleotides, which can degrade target gene mRNA or inhibit its translate. Past studies have shown that miRNAs play important biological functions in cells and participate in a variety of regulatory pathways, including development, virus defense, hematopoietic processes, organ formation, cell proliferation and death, and so on. [0003] One of the most interesting areas of current miRNA research is the detection and quantification of free miRNAs present in blood (serum or plasma) samples. These relatively stable free miRNAs in blood have aroused great interest of researchers because changes in miRNA levels can serve as potential non-invasive molecular markers of vario...
