三维纸芯片细胞微环境下的弗林蛋白酶活性原位分析

In vitro studies of cells play a significant role in revealing life phenomena, disease prevention, drug screening, etc. In this project, by simulating three-dimensional culture of tumor cells under closing to real in vivo microenvironment on paper chip, in situ accurate analysis of high expression furin activity during tumor progression will be achieved. The simple superposition of cellulose paper in the polydimethylsiloxane culture tank completes the conversion of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional configuration of the chip, simulating the in vitro generation and transformation of the stereoscopic tumor tissue. Then the different issue between the conventional cell culture mode and the real environment of the human body could be solved. Adhesive factors are coated on paper materials to construct a hydrogel network scaffold that could fix, protect and nourishe the implanted cells, and weaken the damage of the external environment, realizing the three-dimensional culture of cells under the condition of reproducible in the microenvironment. By covalently immobilizing the amino acid recognition sequence labeled with electroluminescent reagent and the resonance energy transfer group, an electroluminescence detection platform based on a three-dimensional paper-based flexible sensing interface is fabricated. Through the transformation of paper chip configuration from three-dimensional to two-dimensional, in situ sensitive analysis of furin activity from breast cancer cell in simulated environment was realized by employing furin to identify and cut specific amino acid sequences. With the controllable splitting of superimposed paper, the “slice” and “biopsy” of tumor tissue could be completed, which lays a certain theoretical and technical basis for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of tumor diseases.
