  • Example 2 Recombinant artificial lipid droplets by recruitment of innate proteins and/or functional proteins and recombinant lipoprotein recombinants by recruitment of apolipoproteins
  • Lipid droplets are highly dynamic and participate in a wide variety of physiological functions and interactions through the mediation of multiple lipoproteins. Proteins on lipid droplets can be broadly classified into two categories: intrinsic proteins and dynamic proteins. Intrinsic proteins are thought to be selectively localized on lipid droplets, involved in the control of lipid droplet size, and mediate the localization of dynamic proteins. For example, phosphorylated PLIN1 causes hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) to localize on lipid droplets. Therefore, in the use of fat bodies to deconstruct the function of lipid droplets, it is necessary to load the fat droplet intrinsic protein on the fat body, and then further recruit functional proteins based on the successful recruitment of the intrinsic protein to produce artificial lipid droplets.

Description

一种脂肪体的制备方法及其应用 技术领域
本发明涉及生物技术领域,具体涉及一种脂肪体的制备方法及其应用。
背景技术
脂滴(lipid droplet,LD)是一种细胞器,它由中性脂质核心,单层磷脂膜与相关蛋白组成,这一细胞器的功能包括:1)脂质的合成,存储,代谢和运输;2)蛋白质的存储和降解;3)脂质信号分子和激素的生产和修饰;4)与其他细胞器的相互作用。由于脂滴具有上述的多种功能,许多人类的疾病,特别是代谢性疾病,与脂滴的形成和动态变化息息相关,然而,脂滴的形成机制和动态变化研究依然困难重重。目前仍然缺乏对脂滴如何形成、脂滴的功能及调控机制的全面了解。脂滴的组成的复杂性及其与其它细胞器的相互作用干扰了我们解构这些机制的能力。
在过去的十年中,人们致力于脂滴的分离纯化,并通过蛋白质组和脂质组研究阐明脂滴的蛋白质和脂质组成。可是蛋白质组和其他的组分研究发现,分离得到的脂滴几乎总是含有内质网、线粒体和其它细胞器的碎片。可见,制备结构和组成上都接近天然脂滴的人工脂滴(Artificial Lipid Droplets,ALDs)是非常必要的。
除脂滴以外,人体内还有一类由单层磷脂膜包裹中性脂,表面覆有蛋白的结构,称为脂蛋白(lipoprotein)。虽然脂蛋白与脂滴的结构非常类似,但二者定位不同,表面蛋白不同:脂滴存在于细胞中,而脂蛋白存在于血液中;脂滴上的主要蛋白为脂滴固有/结构蛋白(lipid droplet resident/structural protein),而脂蛋白上的主要蛋白为载脂蛋白(apolipoprotein)。不同的脂蛋白表面有不同的载脂蛋白。脂蛋白的种类和比例对人体健康有着非常重要的影响。高密度脂蛋白(high-density lipoprotein,HDL)是胆固醇逆向运输(cholesterol reverse transport)的关键组分,可防止胆固醇在血管壁上的沉积,对动脉粥样硬化等心脑血管疾病有非常重要的预防作用。人工脂蛋白或可用于高密度脂蛋白的补充制剂或其他药物载体。

实施例1、脂肪体的制备
一、制备脂肪体a
1、利用运用涡旋和两步法离心制备脂肪体a,具体步骤如下:
(1)取80μL DOPC溶液(其中含有2mg DOPC)加入到微量离心管中,用高纯氮气吹干溶剂。
(2)完成步骤(1)后,向微量离心管中加入100μl缓冲液B和5mg TAG,涡旋4min(涡旋10s,停止10s),得到乳白色的脂质混合物1(即初始制备组分),将该脂质混合物1以 20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,微量离心管中底部为沉淀组分1,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带1,白色带1以下的部分为溶液1)。
(3)完成步骤(2)后,通过抽取的方式弃除溶液1与沉淀组分1,保留白色带1,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋,得到乳白色的脂质混合物2,将该脂质混合物2以20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,如果微量离心管中底部有沉淀,即为沉淀组分2,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带2,白色带2以下的部分为溶液2)。
(4)完成步骤(3)后,通过抽取的方式弃除溶液2与沉淀组分2,保留白色带2,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋,得到乳白色的脂质混合物3,将该脂质混合物3以20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带3,白色带3以下的部分为溶液3)。
步骤(4)即步骤(3)的重复,实际应用中的步骤(3)的重复次数以白色带下层无沉淀为准。
(5)完成步骤(4)后,取白色带3,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋混匀,1000g离心5min(实际应用中800-1200g离心3-7min),离心后,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带4,白色带4以下的部分为溶液4)。收集溶液4,即为脂肪体a。
将上述步骤中的白色带4命名为上层组分。将上述步骤中的沉淀组分1和沉淀组分2混合,命名为沉淀组分。将上述步骤中的沉淀组分和上层组分混合,命名为混合组分。
利用上述方法制备脂肪体a的具体流程见图1中A(其中a为制备脂肪体a 的组分,b为制备脂肪体a的流程图)。对制备脂肪体a过程中的组分形态用光学显微镜和荧光显微镜进行观察、用显微镜进行透射电镜正染,结果如下:初始制备组分、沉淀组分和上层组分中除含中性脂质的球状结构,还存在许多其它类型的结构(图1中B);溶液4几乎所有结构均为球形,且均为尼罗红阳性,而且尼罗红标记的结构的尺寸与光学显微镜图像中的球状结构的尺寸一致,这表明这些球状结构都含有TAG核心(图1中C);将脂肪体a和脂质体用显微镜进行透射电镜正染,结果表明两者具有明显的差异(图1中D)。
2、脂肪体a的特征
(1)用透射电镜分别对脂肪体a和线粒体进行观察,用冷冻电镜分别对脂肪体a和线粒体进行观察,结果表明(图2中A),脂肪体a由单层磷脂膜包裹,线粒体由双层磷脂膜包裹。
(2)用动态光散射仪测定脂肪体a的平均尺寸约为189纳米(图2中B),然后使用文献(Ding Y,Zhang S,et al.Isolating lipid droplets from multiple species.Nat Protoc.2013 Jan;8(1):43-51.doi:10.1038/nprot.2012.142.Epub 2012 Dec 6.)中的公式,计算得到脂肪体a中DOPC与总脂质(总脂质即TAG和DOPC)的体积比约为6.6%。
(3)使用薄层色谱法分析脂质,具体步骤如下:
a、取待提取物(待提取物体积和下述萃脂液乙中缓冲液B的体积之和为300μl),用萃脂液乙(由300μl氯仿、300μl甲醇和缓冲液B组成)进行萃取以获取脂质(收集有机相,命名为有机相甲),剩余的部分再加入300μl氯仿进行萃取以进一步获取脂质(收集有机相,命名为有机相乙);将有机相甲和有机相乙混合,用氮气吹干,得到待提取物的总脂质;待提取物为脂肪体a、脂质混合物1(即初始制备组分)或混合组分。
b、将步骤a得到的总脂质溶解在100μl氯仿中,上样10μl至硅胶板;
c、完成步骤b后,样品在正己烷:乙醚:冰乙酸(体积比为80:20:1)的展开剂中展开,以分离TAG;
d、完成步骤c后,在空气中挥干有机溶剂(即步骤c中的正己烷、乙醚和冰乙酸),将硅胶板再次在氯仿:甲醇:冰乙酸:水(体积比为75:13:9:3)的溶剂系统中展开,以分离DOPC;
e、完成步骤d后,用饱和碘蒸气进行染色,用ImageJ软件对脂质斑点的灰度进行量化。
结果表明(图2中C),样品中DOPC与脂质的比例为7.1±1.2%,与步骤(2)中的计算值相似,表明脂肪体a具有单层磷脂膜的结构。
(4)根据Ding Y,Zhang S,et al.Isolating lipid droplets from multiple species.Nat Protoc.2013Jan;8(1):43-51.doi:10.1038/nprot.2012.142.Epub 2012Dec 6.)和Yu,J.et al.Lipid droplet remodeling and interaction with mitochondria in mouse brown adipose tissue during cold  treatment.Biochim Biophys Acta 1853,918-928,doi:10.1016/j.bbamcr.2015.01.020(2015)中记载的方法分别从C57BL/6小鼠肝脏组织、C57BL/6小鼠棕色脂肪组织和产油菌RHA1中分离脂滴,依次命名为肝脏组织-脂滴(Liver LD)、棕色脂肪组织-脂滴(BAT LD)和RHA1-脂滴(RHA1 LD)。
脂肪体a、RHA1 LD、Liver LD和BAT LD均呈牛奶状溶液。用动态光散射仪测量脂肪体a、RHA1 LD、Liver LD和BAT LD的平均尺寸,结果BAT LD的粒径最大,平均直径为1848nm;RHA1 LD的粒径最小,平均直径为493nm;脂肪体a的平均直径为189nm(图2中B)。上述结果与光学显微镜得到的结果基本一致(图2中D)。用荧光显微镜对脂肪体或脂滴进行观察,脂肪体a、RHA1 LD、Liver LD和BAT LD都呈现球状结构(图2中D),表明它们都含有TAG核心。
3、影响脂肪体形成的因素
为优化制备脂肪体的条件,我们系统地改变了步骤1中所述涡旋和两步法中两个主要因素,即步骤(2)中的涡旋时间和两种原料(磷脂与中性脂质)的比例,并通过测量在600nm波长处的光密度(OD600)来反映脂肪体的产量,通过动态光散射仪测量脂肪体的尺寸。
(1)涡旋时间的优化
按照上述步骤1的方法,将步骤1中(1)的涡旋4min分别替换为涡旋1min、涡旋2min和涡旋3min,其它步骤均不变,得到脂肪体b、脂肪体c和脂肪体d,然后分别测量脂肪体a、脂肪体b、脂肪体c或脂肪体d的尺寸和光密度。
实验结果见图3中A。结果表明,脂肪体的产量随涡旋时间的延长而上升,而脂肪体尺寸随涡旋时间的延长而降低,在大约2min达到最小值并进入平台。综合脂肪体的光密度较高(即产量较高)且脂肪体的尺寸较大两个因素,确定涡旋和两步法中步骤(2)的最佳涡旋时间为4min。
(2)磷脂与中性脂质的比例优化
制备脂肪体a中的磷脂具体为DOPC,中性脂质具体为TAG,DOPC:TAG的比例为2:5。
①按照上述步骤1的方法,将步骤1中(1)的2mg DOPC分别替换为0.25mg DOPC、0.5mg DOPC、1mg DOPC和3mg DOPC,其它步骤均不变,得到脂肪体a1(DOPC:TAG的比例为1:20)、脂肪体a2(DOPC:TAG的比例为1:10)、脂肪体a3(DOPC:TAG的比例为1:5)和脂肪体a4(DOPC:TAG的比例为3:5),然后分别测量脂肪体a1、脂肪体a2、脂肪体a3和脂肪体a4的尺寸和光密度。
实验结果见图3中B。结果表明,当DOPC与TAG的比例为2:5时,脂肪体的产量最高;脂肪体的尺寸随着DOPC与TAG的比例上升而减小,至DOPC:TAG为1:5时达到最小并进入平台。综合脂肪体的即产量较高且脂肪体的尺寸较大两个因素,确定制备脂肪体中DOPC与TAG的最佳比例为2:5。
②按照上述步骤1的方法,将步骤1中(1)的2mg DOPC分别替换为1.33mg DOPC和0.67mgDSPC、1mg DOPC和1mgDSPC、0.67mg DOPC和1.33mg DSPC、以及2mg DSPC,其它步骤均不变,得到脂肪体A1(DOPC:DSPC的比例为2:1)、脂 肪体A2(DOPC:DSPC的比例为1:1)、脂肪体A3(DOPC:DSPC的比例为1:2)和脂肪体A4(磷脂仅为DSPC),然后分别测量脂肪体A1、脂肪体A2、脂肪体A3和脂肪体A4的尺寸和光密度。
结果表明,当DOPC与DSPC的比例降低时,即DSPC的相对含量升高时,脂肪体的产量明显下降(图3中C的a),而脂肪体的尺寸随着DOPC与DSPC的比例降低而急剧增大(图3中C的b)。
③按照上述步骤1的方法,将步骤1中(1)的2mg DOPC分别替换为1.33mg DOPC和0.67mgDOPE、1mg DOPC和1mgDOPE、0.67mg DOPC和1.33mgDOPE、和、2mgDOPE,其它步骤均不变,得到脂肪体B1(DOPC:DOPE的比例为2:1)、脂肪体B2(DOPC:DOPE的比例为1:1)、脂肪体B3(DOPC:DOPE的比例为1:2)和脂肪体B4(磷脂仅为DOPE),然后分别测量脂肪体B1、脂肪体B2、脂肪体B3和脂肪体B4的尺寸和光密度。
结果表明,DOPE的掺入不影响脂肪体的产量,直至DOPC与DOPE的比例达到1:2时,脂肪体的产量才急剧下降(图3中D的a),而脂肪体的尺寸随着DOPC与DOPE的比例降低而急剧增大,直至DOPC与DOPE的比例达到1:2时,脂肪体的尺寸无法检出(图3中D的b)。
④按照上述步骤1的方法,将步骤1中(1)的5mg TAG分别替换为4.17mg TAG和0.83mgCO、4mg TAG和1mgCO、3.75mg TAG和1.25mgCO、和、3.33mg TAG和1.67mgCO,其它步骤均不变,得到脂肪体C1(TAG:CO的比例为5:1)、脂肪体C2(TAG:CO的比例为4:1)、脂肪体C3(TAG:CO的比例为3:1)和脂肪体C4(TAG:CO的比例为2:1),然后分别测量脂肪体C1、脂肪体C2、脂肪体C3和脂肪体C4的尺寸和光密度。
结果表明,CO的掺入不影响脂肪体的产量,直至TAG与CO的比例达到3:1时,脂肪体的产量才显著下降(图3中E的a),脂肪体的尺寸也略有下降(图3中E的b),表明中性脂质组成可以极大地影响脂肪体产量和大小。
4、脂肪体的稳定性
在室温或4℃条件下孵育脂肪体a,孵育7天。整个孵育过程中,每天测定脂肪体a的尺寸、在OD600处的光密度,并用光学显微镜和荧光显微镜对脂肪体进行观察。
结果表明(图3中F和图4),整个孵育过程中,脂肪体a的光密度和尺寸均无显著变化,可见脂肪体a是相对稳定的。
实施例2、通过招募固有蛋白和/或功能蛋白的重组人工脂滴和通过招募载脂蛋白重组人工脂蛋白
下述实施例中的Ulp1记载在如下文献中:Hu,W.,Wu,H.,Zhang,H.,Gong,W.& Perrett,S.Resonance assignments for the substrate binding domain of Hsp70 chaperone Ssa1from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.Biomol NMR Assign9,329-332,doi:10.1007/s12104-015-9603-5(2015)。在下述实验孵育过程中Ulp1可剪切蛋白上的SMT3标签。
脂滴是高度动态的,并通过多种脂滴蛋白的介导参与数目繁多的生理功能和相互作用。脂滴上的蛋白可大致分为两类:固有蛋白和动态蛋白。固有蛋白被认为选择性的定位于脂滴上,参与脂滴大小的控制,并介导动态蛋白的定位。例如,磷酸化的PLIN1促使激素敏感性脂肪酶(hormone-sensitive lipase,HSL)定位于脂滴上。因此,使用脂肪体来解构脂滴的功能,就必须在脂肪体上装载脂滴固有蛋白,然后在成功招募固有蛋白生成人工脂滴的基础上,进一步招募功能蛋白。对于脂蛋白而言,不同的载脂蛋白不仅是不同脂蛋白的特异性标记,同时也是脂蛋白的骨架之一。本发明中,脂滴固有蛋白具体为来自于从细菌到哺乳动物的不同生物体的脂滴固有蛋白,包括从产油菌RHA1中分离的RHA1-脂滴(RHA1LD)上的MLDS蛋白,线虫脂滴上的MDT-28蛋白和哺乳动物非脂肪细胞中的Perilipin-2蛋白,功能蛋白为ATGL。载脂蛋白具体为来自于人的载脂蛋白A1(apolipoprotein A-I,Apo A-I)。

Figure PCTCN2016106732-appb-000002
该药物为脂溶性药物,能与甘油三酯互溶,为用于治疗II型糖尿病和/或代谢紊乱的候选药物,具体为TOCRIS公司的产品目录号为5869的产品,商品名称为CDN 1163。ZORBAX SB-C18色谱柱为Agilent公司的产品。
一、制备载药脂肪体
1、利用运用涡旋和两步法离心制备载药脂肪体,具体步骤如下:
(1)取10mg TAG加入到微量离心管中,加入100μl氯仿,充分溶解,得到TAG溶液。
(2)取2mg CDN 1163,置于另一微量离心管中,加入200μl氯仿,充分溶解,得到浓度为10μg/μl的药物溶液。
(3)完成步骤(1)和步骤(2)后,将TAG溶液和药物溶液混合均匀,然后用高纯氮气吹干溶剂,得到混合物质(混合物质中含10mg TAG和2mg CDN1163)。
(4)取80μL DOPC溶液(其中含有2mg DOPC)加入到微量离心管中,用高纯氮气吹干溶剂。
(5)向完成步骤(4)的微量离心管中加入100μl缓冲液B和6mg步骤(3)得到的混合物质,涡旋4min(涡旋10s,停止10s),得到乳白色的脂质混合物甲,将该脂质混合物甲以20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,微量离心管中底部为沉淀组分甲,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带甲,白色带甲以下的部分为溶液甲)。
(6)完成步骤(5)后,通过抽取的方式弃除溶液甲与沉淀组分甲,保留白色带甲,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋,得到乳白色的脂质混合物乙,将该脂质混合物乙以20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,如果微量离心管中底部有沉淀,即为沉淀组分乙,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带乙,白色带乙以下的部分为溶液乙)。
(7)完成步骤(6)后,通过抽取的方式弃除溶液乙与沉淀组分乙,保留白色带乙,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋,得到乳白色的脂质混合物丙,将该脂质混合物丙以20000g离心5min(实际应用中18000-22000g离心3-7min均可)。离心后,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带丙,白色带丙以下的部分为溶液丙)。
步骤(7)即步骤(6)的重复,实际应用中的步骤(6)的重复次数以白色 带下层无沉淀为准。
(8)完成步骤(7)后,取白色带丙,加入100μl缓冲液B,涡旋混匀,1000g离心5min(实际应用中800-1200g离心3-7min),离心后,液相体系呈现两层分层(上层为白色带丁,白色带丁以下的部分为溶液丁)。收集溶液丁,即为载药脂肪体。
利用上述方法制备载药脂肪体的具体流程见图11中A(其中a为制备载药脂肪体的组分,b为制备载药脂肪体的流程图)。利用上述方法制备的载药脂肪体见图11中B(左为实施例1步骤一中1制备的脂肪体a,右为载药脂肪体)。
二、载药脂肪体的特征
1、用动态光散射仪测定脂肪体a的平均尺寸约为166.1纳米(图11中C)。
2、测定载药脂肪体中CDN1163的浓度。具体步骤如下:
(1)标准曲线的绘制
准确称取CDN 1163 10mg于100ml容量瓶中,用无水甲醇(色谱级)溶解并定容至100ml,配成100μg/ml CDN 1163母液。然后继续用无水甲醇(色谱级)稀释获得浓度分别为20、4μg/mL的标准溶液。使用配有ZORBAX SB-C18色谱柱(5.0μm,4.6mm×150mm)的Agilent 1260液相色谱仪测定不同浓度CDN 1163的峰面积,3次重复。流动相由甲醇和水组成,甲醇和水的体积比为85:15,流速为1.0mL/min。检测波长为245nm。
以CDN1163的浓度为横坐标,峰面积为纵坐标,绘制标准曲线。标准曲线的线性方程为:y=61.796x+18.2(R2=0.99999),其中y为峰面积,x为CDN 1163浓度(μg/mL)。CDN 1163浓度在0-100μg/ml线性关系良好。
(2)测定载药脂肪体中CDN 1163的浓度
取载药脂肪体10μl,加入990μl无水甲醇(色谱级),涡旋10s(目的为充分混合),然后20000g离心5min,弃沉淀,收集上清液。使用配有ZORBAX SB-C18色谱柱(5.0μm,4.6mm×150mm)的Agilent 1260液相色谱仪测定上清液的峰面积,3次重复。流动相由甲醇和水组成,甲醇和水的体积比为85:15,流速为1.0mL/min。检测波长为245nm。
实验结果见图11中D(保留时间为6.366min)。根据所述上清液的峰面积和步骤(1)的标准曲线,计算得到上清液中CDN1163浓度为9.604μg/ml,进一步得到载药脂肪体中CDN 1163浓度为960.4μg/ml。
上述结果表明,实施例1制备的脂肪体可以作为药物载体。
工业应用
以本发明公开的方法制备的脂肪体、人工脂滴和人工脂蛋白,可作为药物载体,进而完成各种生物学和医学的目标,具有重要的应用价值。
