以微核酸-196a分子及微核酸-196b分子運用於偵測口腔癌的方法Method for detecting oral cancer by using micronucleic acid-196a molecule and micronucleic acid-196b molecule

本發明係提供一種以微核酸-196a(miR-196a)分子及微核酸-196b(miR-196b)分子運用於偵測口腔癌之方法,尤其係以miR-196a分子及miR-196b分子作為口腔癌的腫瘤標記,係分析潛在病患之生物檢體中miR-196a分子及miR-196b分子的表現量來推斷該潛在病患罹患口腔癌的方法。The present invention provides a method for detecting oral cancer using a micronucleic acid-196a (miR-196a) molecule and a micronucleic acid-196b (miR-196b) molecule, in particular, miR-196a molecule and miR-196b molecule as oral cavity. The tumor marker of cancer is a method for analyzing the expression of miR-196a molecule and miR-196b molecule in a biological specimen of a potential patient to infer the potential patient suffering from oral cancer.

血液腫瘤標誌被認為是一種侵入性低的方式,具有疾病偵測、預後及監控治療結果的價值。因此,一個臨床上應用的血液型腫瘤標誌可以提供更好的疾病控制。現行的血液型腫瘤標誌有偵測大腸直腸癌的CEA、偵測肝癌的AFP與偵測攝護腺癌的PSA。過去也有報導指出SCC抗原與Cyfra21可以作為頭頸癌的偵測標誌,其偵測敏感度分別為SCC 15.5%~38.1%,Cyfra21 38.1%~58.3%[參考文獻1-4];然而在這些報導中尚未提到有臨床使用的口腔癌偵測標誌。The hematological oncology marker is considered to be an invasive, low-cost way to detect disease, prognose, and monitor treatment outcomes. Therefore, a clinically applied blood type tumor marker can provide better disease control. Current blood-type tumor markers include CEA for detecting colorectal cancer, AFP for detecting liver cancer, and PSA for detecting prostate cancer. In the past, it has been reported that SCC antigen and Cyfra21 can be used as detection markers for head and neck cancer. The detection sensitivity is 15.5%~38.1% for SCC and 38.1%~58.3% for Cyfra21 [References 1-4]; however, in these reports There are no mentions of clinically used oral cancer detection markers.

微核酸(miRNA)是內生性,不轉譯蛋白的小片段RNA,微核酸長度為18-25鹼基對,其利用結合到標的基因訊息RNA的3’不轉譯區域(3’UTR),進而抑制標的基因轉譯而達到負向調控基因表現。目前已經有700多種人類微核酸被 標註於Sanger miRNABase資料庫中,而預測微核酸的數目會超過1000個。微核酸被認為是一群重要的基因調控分子,估計有1/3~1/2的人類基因會受微核酸調控,此外每個微小RNA亦可以同時調控不同的標的基因。已知微核酸參與多樣的生物功能,如細胞增生,分化,凋亡及移行功能,甚至微核酸表現異常也認為與細胞惡性轉化有關。近年來研究顯示,許多不同的癌症都有其特異的微核酸表現,而在頭頸癌中的微核酸也被分析過,然而,研究卻顯示共同的結果並不多,表示微核酸的複雜性及其為之的機制並未被真正了解。Micronucleic acids (miRNAs) are endogenous, non-translated small fragments of RNA, which are 18-25 base pairs in length and which bind to the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of the target gene message RNA, thereby inhibiting The target gene is translated to achieve negative regulation of gene expression. There are currently more than 700 human micronucleic acids Marked in the Sanger miRNABase database, the number of predicted micronuclei will exceed 1,000. Micronucleic acids are considered to be a group of important gene regulatory molecules. It is estimated that 1/3~1/2 of human genes are regulated by micronuclei, and each microRNA can simultaneously regulate different target genes. Micronucleic acids are known to be involved in a variety of biological functions, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and migration, and even microRNA performance is also thought to be associated with malignant transformation of cells. In recent years, studies have shown that many different cancers have their specific micronucleic acid expression, and the micronucleic acids in head and neck cancer have also been analyzed. However, studies have shown that the common results are not many, indicating the complexity of micronucleic acids and The mechanism for it is not really understood.

目前,口腔癌是十大癌症之一,每年約以五十萬人的新病例增加。為了改善醫療成效,提升口腔癌患者的存活率,除了改善治療的方式外,發現並建立一個臨床上可以用來偵測以及監控病程的腫瘤標誌,相信可以有效的減少口腔癌病人的死亡率。Currently, oral cancer is one of the top ten cancers, with an increase of approximately 500,000 new cases each year.

此外,本發明利用活體外傷痕癒合實驗來分析miR-196a及miR-196b對於細胞移行能力的影響。將兩株口腔癌細胞(OECM1,SAS)處理miR-196a及miR-196b的抑制序列(antagomiR、anti-196a、anti-196b)來減低細胞內miR-196a及miR-196b的表現量,則細胞爬行至間隙的速度比控制組慢,如第三圖所示,第三圖係將miR-196a及miR-196b之抑制序列及控制序列(scramble control)處理口腔癌細胞OECM1及SAS後進行體外傷口癒合試驗, 其中控制序列SC是指序列中核酸基與抑制序列相同但順序為隨機打散的序列。In addition, the present invention utilizes an in vitro scar healing assay to analyze the effects of miR-196a and miR-196b on cell migration ability. Two oral cancer cells (OECM1, SAS) were treated with the inhibitory sequences of miR-196a and miR-196b (antagomiR, anti-196a, anti-196b) to reduce the expression of miR-196a and miR-196b in cells. The speed of crawling to the gap is slower than that of the control group. As shown in the third figure, the third image is the in vitro wound after treating the oral cancer cells OECM1 and SAS with the inhibitory sequence and scramble control of miR-196a and miR-196b. Healing test, Wherein the control sequence SC refers to a sequence in which the nucleic acid group in the sequence is identical to the inhibition sequence but the sequence is randomly dispersed.

兩株細胞都顯示出當控制組的細胞已經滿佈間隙的時候,不管是減低miR-196a或miR-196b的實驗組細胞仍未爬滿間隙。此外,為進一步證實miR-196a及miR-196b對細胞移行的影響,本發明亦設計可以高度表現miR-196a及miR-196b的質體,使細胞表現高量的miR-196a及miR-196b,如第四圖所示,在口腔癌細胞OECM1及SAS中以特定載體表現miR-196a、miR-196b後,以體外傷口癒合試驗測定細胞移行能力,並以空載體(pcDNA)處理的細胞當作控制組,顯示不管高度表現miR-196a或miR-196b都可以兩株口腔癌細胞的移行能力,高度表現miR-196的細胞在九小時後就可以爬滿間隙,顯著較控制組細胞(pcDNA)快。Both cells showed that the cells in the experimental group, which reduced miR-196a or miR-196b, did not fill the gap when the cells in the control group had been filled with gaps. In addition, in order to further confirm the effect of miR-196a and miR-196b on cell migration, the present invention also designed to highly express the plastids of miR-196a and miR-196b, so that cells express high amounts of miR-196a and miR-196b, As shown in the fourth panel, after miR-196a and miR-196b were expressed in specific cells in oral cancer cells OECM1 and SAS, cell migration ability was measured by an in vitro wound healing test, and cells treated with empty vector (pcDNA) were used as The control group showed that regardless of the high performance of miR-196a or miR-196b, the migration ability of two oral cancer cells could be observed. The cells with high expression of miR-196 could fill the gap after nine hours, significantly compared with the control group (pcDNA). fast.

本發明並利用基底膜穿透實驗(Matrigel invasion assay)來判斷miR-196a及miR-196b是否會改變細胞向外侵犯的能力,將miR-196a及miR-196b之抑制序列(antagomiR、anti-196a、anti-196b)及控制序列(scramble control)處理口腔癌細胞OECM1及SAS來減低細胞內miR-196a及miR-196b的表現量,其中控制序列SC是指序列中核酸基與抑制序列相同但順序為隨機打散的序列,結果如第五圖所示。在兩株口腔癌細胞中,以特 定的miR-196a及miR-196b抑制序列來減低細胞miR-196a及miR-196b的表現,則比控制組細胞出現較少穿越基底膜膠質的細胞數,與對照組細胞比較之後發現,抑制miR-196a的表現後,OECM1細胞的穿越數下降至49%,而SAS細胞更下降至31%;另外,抑制miR-196b則發現OECM1及SAS細胞穿越基底膜的數目減少到控制組的34%及47%。進一步高度表現miR-196a及miR-196b於細胞中,如第六圖所示,高度表現細胞中的miR-196a及miR-196b會促進口腔癌細胞的侵犯能力,在口腔癌細胞OECM1及SAS中以特定載體表現miR-196a及miR-196b後,以基底膜穿透試驗(Matrigel invasion assay)測定細胞侵犯能力,並以空載體(pcDNA)處理的細胞當作控制組,發現有miR-196a及miR-196b高度表現的細胞穿過基底膜到另一端的細胞數比控制組(pcDNA)多約2倍。The present invention also utilizes the Matrigel invasion assay to determine whether miR-196a and miR-196b alter the ability of cells to invade, and the inhibitory sequences of miR-196a and miR-196b (antagomiR, anti-196a) , anti-196b) and scramble control treatment of oral cancer cells OECM1 and SAS to reduce the expression of intracellular miR-196a and miR-196b, wherein the control sequence SC means that the nucleic acid sequence in the sequence is identical to the inhibition sequence but in sequence For a sequence that is randomly scattered, the result is shown in the fifth figure. In two oral cancer cells, The miR-196a and miR-196b inhibitory sequences were designed to reduce the expression of miR-196a and miR-196b, and the number of cells that passed through the basement membrane glial was smaller than that of the control group. After the performance of -196a, the number of OECM1 cells decreased to 49%, while SAS cells decreased to 31%. In addition, inhibition of miR-196b found that the number of OECM1 and SAS cells crossing the basement membrane was reduced to 34% of the control group. 47%. Further high expression of miR-196a and miR-196b in cells, as shown in Figure 6, high expression of miR-196a and miR-196b in cells can promote the invasion of oral cancer cells, in oral cancer cells OECM1 and SAS After miR-196a and miR-196b were expressed in a specific vector, cell invasion ability was measured by Matrigel invasion assay, and cells treated with empty vector (pcDNA) were used as control group, and miR-196a and The highly expressed cells of miR-196b crossed the basement membrane to the other end by about 2 times more cells than the control group (pcDNA).

除了miR-196a及miR-196b在細胞功能的鑑定,本發明也測定了臨床的組織檢體中miR-196a及miR-196b的表現,本發明總共操作了54個病人的腫瘤組織樣本(T)及其周圍正常組織樣本(N),利用即時定量PCR方式檢測miR-196a及miR-196b的表現量,並以U6核酸作為標準化用的內部控制,以相對表現量來呈現結果,其中第七圖(A)表示在54組樣本中有52個(96.3%)腫瘤組織中miR-196a及miR-196b的表現量比其周圍正常組織中的表現量高出兩倍以上 (p<0.001);第七圖(B)表示在54組樣本中有48個(88.6%)腫瘤檢體中miR-196b的表現量顯著比周圍正常組織中的表現量高過兩倍(p<0.001)。In addition to the identification of miR-196a and miR-196b in cell function, the present invention also measures the expression of miR-196a and miR-196b in clinical tissue samples. The present invention operates a total of 54 patient tumor tissue samples (T).
