Abstract
Description
本発明は、金コロイド凝集反応を利用するジアセチルスペルミンの測定方法に関する。より詳細には、検体中のジアセチルスペルミンをng/mL単位で高感度にかつ短時間に測定することを可能にする技術に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for measuring diacetylspermine using a colloidal gold agglutination reaction. More specifically, the present invention relates to a technique that makes it possible to measure diacetylspermine in a specimen in units of ng / mL with high sensitivity and in a short time.
ジアセチルスペルミンは、尿中ポリアミン成分の1種であり、健常者尿中では尿中総ポリアミンの0.6%を占めるにすぎない微量成分である。しかし、癌患者の尿中においては、他の成分と比較して高い頻度で排泄量が増加し、しかも増加の割合も際立って高い。そのため、ジアセチルスペルミンは腫瘍マーカーとして注目されている(非特許文献1および2参照)。さらに、悪性腫瘍の治療効果の判定や予後予測の指標としても期待されている(非特許文献2)。 Diacetylspermine is a kind of urinary polyamine component, and is a trace component that only accounts for 0.6% of the total urine polyamine in the urine of healthy persons. However, in the urine of cancer patients, the amount of excretion increases more frequently than other components, and the rate of increase is remarkably high. Therefore, diacetylspermine has attracted attention as a tumor marker (see Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). Furthermore, it is also expected as an index for determining the therapeutic effect of malignant tumors and predicting prognosis (Non-patent Document 2).
近年、臨床検査などの各種検査では自動化および測定時間の短縮が図られている。例えば、臨床検査においては、生体試料中の微量物質を測定するために免疫反応を利用する免疫測定方法が広く用いられている。免疫測定法としては、RIA法、EIA法、免疫比濁法、ラテックス凝集法、金属コロイド凝集法などの多くの方法がある。この中でもラテックス凝集法および金属コロイド凝集法は、反応液の分離や洗浄を行う必要がないため、自動化に適している。しかし、ジアセチルスペルミンなどの低分子物質(以下、ハプテンという)の測定においては、通常の免疫測定とは異なり競合法による免疫反応を利用するため、その測定を高感度かつ短時間に行うには困難が伴い、自動化の妨げとなっている。そのため、従来、生体試料中のng/mL濃度のハプテンを測定する場合、RIA法やEIA法で測定されることが多く、自動化に適さず、簡便に測定できなかった。このように、ハプテン測定においても、高感度かつ短時間で測定が可能な、自動化に適した技術が望まれている。 In recent years, various tests such as clinical tests have been automated and shortened in measurement time. For example, in a clinical test, an immunoassay method using an immune reaction is widely used to measure a trace amount substance in a biological sample. There are many immunoassay methods such as RIA method, EIA method, immunoturbidimetric method, latex agglutination method, and metal colloid agglutination method. Among these, the latex agglutination method and the metal colloid agglomeration method are suitable for automation because it is not necessary to separate and wash the reaction solution. However, the measurement of low-molecular substances such as diacetylspermine (hereinafter referred to as “hapten”) uses an immune reaction by a competitive method, unlike normal immunoassay, so it is difficult to perform the measurement with high sensitivity and in a short time. As a result, automation has been hindered. Therefore, conventionally, when measuring a hapten having a concentration of ng / mL in a biological sample, it is often measured by an RIA method or an EIA method, which is not suitable for automation and cannot be easily measured. Thus, in hapten measurement, a technique suitable for automation that can measure with high sensitivity and in a short time is desired.
金属コロイド凝集法によるハプテンの測定用試薬として、血中ハロペリドール測定用試薬「マーキット(登録商標)Gハロペリドール」および血中ブロムペリドール測定用試薬「マーキット(登録商標)Gブロムペリドール」が、大日本製薬株式会社(製造、株式会社アズウェル)より販売されている。これらによれば、血液中のハロペリドールおよびブロムペリドールを自動分析機により、高感度かつ短時間に測定することができる(非特許文献3および4)。しかしながら、腫瘍マーカーとして注目されているジアセチルスペルミンを金属コロイド凝集法により測定する方法については未だ知られていない。 As reagents for measuring a hapten by a metal colloid aggregation method, a reagent for measuring blood haloperidol "Merkit (registered trademark) G haloperidol" and a reagent for measuring blood bromoperidol "Merkit (registered trademark) G bromperidol" It is sold by Nippon Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (Manufacturing, Aswell Co., Ltd.). According to these, haloperidol and bromperidol in blood can be measured with high sensitivity and in a short time by an automatic analyzer (Non-patent Documents 3 and 4). However, a method for measuring diacetylspermine, which is attracting attention as a tumor marker, by a metal colloid aggregation method is not yet known.
尿中のジアセチルスペルミンの測定については、ELISAに用いるためのジアセチルスペルミン特異抗体の製法が報告されている(非特許文献5)。また、ジアセチルスペルミンの測定用試薬の一つとして、「尿中ジアセチルスペルミン測定試薬用ELISAキット」が、株式会社トランスジェニック(販売、フナコシ株式会社)より市販されている。このキットは、ELISA法を行うための試薬であり、構成品も10種と多く、測定操作方法は煩雑であり、自動化および短時間での測定は困難である。 Regarding the measurement of diacetylspermine in urine, a method for producing a diacetylspermine-specific antibody for use in ELISA has been reported (Non-patent Document 5). As one of the reagents for measuring diacetylspermine, “Urine diacetylspermine measuring reagent ELISA kit” is commercially available from Transgenic Co., Ltd. (sales, Funakoshi Co., Ltd.). This kit is a reagent for performing the ELISA method, and there are as many as 10 components, the measurement operation method is complicated, and automation and measurement in a short time are difficult.
以上のとおり公知の測定法では、ジアセチルスペルミンを高感度かつ短時間で測定を行うことができず、自動化も困難であった。
本発明は、測定感度が良好で、測定時間が短縮された、B/F分離を必要としない自動化に適したジアセチルスペルミンの測定法およびそのための測定キットを提供することを目的とする。 An object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring diacetylspermine suitable for automation that does not require B / F separation and has a good measurement sensitivity and a short measurement time, and a measurement kit therefor.

It is possible to measure diacetylspermine at a concentration of ng / mL with high sensitivity and in a short time by adding and mixing a second reagent containing a mixture and measuring the change in absorbance due to immune reaction aggregation of colloidal gold. As a result, the present invention has been completed.

(第1試薬)
本発明の方法で使用される第1試薬は、塩およびジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質を含有する。
(First reagent)
The first reagent used in the method of the present invention contains a salt and a diacetylspermine analog binding protein.
本発明において、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質とは、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物と免疫原性蛋白質との結合物をいう。ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質(結合蛋白質)は、測定対象のジアセチルスペルミンと抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体に対して競合反応し得るものであれば、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物として、どのような物質が蛋白質に結合したものであってもよい。蛋白質と結合させるジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物としては、結合蛋白質中のジアセチルスペルミン相当部分の化学構造が可能な限り本来のジアセチルスペルミンの構造に類似しているものを選択することが望ましい。また、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物としては、ジアセチルスペルミンと担体タンパク質との結合に伴って、ジアセチルスペルミン分子の一部が担体分子上の官能基と化学結合を生じることにより、必然的に遊離のジアセチルスペルミンとは一部異なる構造を有するようになった化合物も含む。本発明においては、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物として、N−アセチルスペルミンを用いることが好ましい。また、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質には、蛋白質1分子当たり、4〜40程度のジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物が結合していることが好ましい。 In the present invention, the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein refers to a conjugate of a diacetylspermine analog and an immunogenic protein. Diacetylspermine analog binding protein (binding protein) is a diacetylspermine analog that binds to the protein as long as it can compete with the target diacetylspermine and anti-diacetylspermine antibody. It may be. As the diacetylspermine-like compound to be bound to the protein, it is desirable to select a compound having a chemical structure of the portion corresponding to diacetylspermine in the binding protein as similar as possible to the original diacetylspermine structure. In addition, as a diacetylspermine-like compound, a part of the diacetylspermine molecule forms a chemical bond with a functional group on the carrier molecule in association with the binding of diacetylspermine and the carrier protein. Also includes compounds that have become partly different in structure. In the present invention, N-acetylspermine is preferably used as the diacetylspermine analog. In addition, it is preferable that about 4 to 40 diacetylspermine-like compounds are bound to the diacetylspermine-like compound binding protein per molecule of the protein.
ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の蛋白質は、ハプテンを結合させるために当該技術分野で通常用いられる免疫原性蛋白質であり、各種動物由来のアルブミン、ヘモシアニン、サイログロブリン、フィブリノーゲン、酵素などから適宜選択される。これらの蛋白質は、天然に存在する形態でジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物を結合させることもできるが、該蛋白質のアミノ酸側鎖の一部を化学修飾して改変蛋白質とした後に、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物との結合に供してもよい。本発明においては、ウシ血清アルブミン(BSA)のリシン残基の側鎖にメルカプトサクシニル基が付加されているメルカプトサクシニルBSAが好ましい。 The protein of the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein is an immunogenic protein usually used in the art for binding a hapten, and is appropriately selected from various animal-derived albumins, hemocyanin, thyroglobulin, fibrinogen, enzymes, and the like. These proteins can be bound to diacetylspermine analogs in their naturally occurring form, but after modification of a part of the amino acid side chain of the protein to a modified protein, binding to diacetylspermine analogs You may use for. In the present invention, mercaptosuccinyl BSA in which a mercaptosuccinyl group is added to the side chain of a lysine residue of bovine serum albumin (BSA) is preferable.
上記ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質は、当業者が通常用いる方法により製造することができる。このような製造方法は、ジアセチルスペルミン類に存在するアミノ基、カルボキシル基またはチオール基などの官能基を利用して、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物と蛋白質とを直接または結合剤を介して化学結合させるものであり、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物類の構造に応じて種々のものが知られている(生化学実験法11 エンザイムイムノアッセイ、P.Tijssen著、石川栄治編、252頁、1989年、東京化学同人)。化学結合を形成させるための試薬としては、アシル化剤、アルキル化剤などが挙げられる。好ましくは、カルボキシル基を活性化することにより得られるN−ヒドロキシスクシンイミドエステル、弱アルカリ条件下で用いられるマレイミド類などである。本発明においては、N−アセチルスペルミンの1級アミノ基の部分と二価性架橋剤GMBS(N−(4−マレイミドブチリルオキシ)スクシンイミド)のエステル部分とをアミド結合させ、生成した付加物のマレイミド部分を利用して、メルカプトサクシニルBSAに結合させることが好ましい。 The diacetylspermine analog-binding protein can be produced by a method commonly used by those skilled in the art. Such a production method uses a functional group such as an amino group, a carboxyl group or a thiol group present in diacetylspermine to chemically bond a diacetylspermine-like compound and a protein directly or via a binder. There are various known compounds depending on the structure of diacetylspermine analogs (Biochemical Experimental Method 11 Enzyme Immunoassay, P. Tijssen, edited by Eiji Ishikawa, page 252, 1989, Tokyo Chemical Dojin). Examples of the reagent for forming a chemical bond include acylating agents and alkylating agents. Preferred are N-hydroxysuccinimide esters obtained by activating carboxyl groups, maleimides used under weak alkaline conditions, and the like. In the present invention, the primary amino group part of N-acetylspermine and the ester part of the divalent crosslinker GMBS (N- (4-maleimidobutyryloxy) succinimide) are amide-bonded, and Preferably, the maleimide moiety is used to bind to mercaptosuccinyl BSA.
第1試薬に含有されるジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質は、反応最終液中に、蛋白質濃度として、5〜3000ng/mL、好ましくは20〜500ng/mL、さらに好ましくは30〜200ng/mL含有される。ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の量が少なすぎると、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドとの凝集反応が生じ難い。一方、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の量が多すぎると、被測定物質のジアセチルスペルミンとジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質との競合反応が生じ難い。 The diacetylspermine analog-binding protein contained in the first reagent is contained in the final reaction solution as a protein concentration of 5-3000 ng / mL, preferably 20-500 ng / mL, more preferably 30-200 ng / mL. . If the amount of the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein is too small, an agglutination reaction with the anti-diacetylspermine antibody-binding gold colloid is difficult to occur. On the other hand, when the amount of the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein is too large, a competitive reaction between the substance to be measured, diacetylspermine and the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein, hardly occurs.
第1試薬は、塩も含む。塩としては、塩化ナトリウムや塩化カリウムなどの無機塩類が挙げられる。これらは、単独で用いても、組み合わせて用いてもよい。これらの無機塩類の濃度は、終濃度として、通常0.3〜10%、好ましくは1〜7%、より好ましくは2〜5%である。塩濃度が0.3%よりも少ないとハプテンとの競合反応が進行し難い。一方、10%より多すぎると反応抑制が強くなり好ましくない。 The first reagent also includes a salt. Examples of the salt include inorganic salts such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride. These may be used alone or in combination. The concentration of these inorganic salts is usually 0.3 to 10%, preferably 1 to 7%, more preferably 2 to 5% as the final concentration. When the salt concentration is less than 0.3%, the competitive reaction with the hapten hardly proceeds. On the other hand, if it is more than 10%, the reaction suppression becomes strong, which is not preferable.
また、十分な測定感度が得られるという点において、第1試薬は、凝集促進剤として、平均分子量5,000から500,000の水溶性高分子を含有することが好ましい。含有量は、通常0.01%〜10%(W/V)、好ましくは0.01〜5.0%(W/V)より好ましくは0.1〜3.0%(W/V)、さらに好ましくは1.0〜2.0%(W/V)である。水溶性高分子物質としては、ポリエチレングリコール(PEG)、ポリビニルピロリドン、カルボキシメチルセルロース、デキストラン、デキストラン硫酸、コンドロイチン硫酸、ヒアルロン酸、ポリアクリル酸、プルランなどが挙げられる。 In addition, the first reagent preferably contains a water-soluble polymer having an average molecular weight of 5,000 to 500,000 as an aggregation accelerator in that sufficient measurement sensitivity can be obtained.

(第2試薬)
本発明の方法で使用される第2試薬は、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドを含有する。
(Second reagent)
The second reagent used in the method of the present invention contains an anti-diacetylspermine antibody-conjugated gold colloid.
上記抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドは、金コロイドに抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を結合または吸着させたものであり、当業者が通常用いる方法により製造され得る。抗体はそのまま結合させても、化学処理や酵素処理後に結合させてもよい。また、金コロイドと抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体とは、ビオチン・アビジンのような親和性のある物質や修飾PEGのような化合物を介して結合してもよい。通常、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を金コロイドに結合させた後、アルブミンなどの蛋白質でブロッキング処理を行う。そのブロッキング剤としては、ウシ血清アルブミン(BSA)が好ましい。 The anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid is obtained by binding or adsorbing an anti-diacetylspermine antibody to a gold colloid, and can be produced by methods commonly used by those skilled in the art. The antibody may be bound as it is or after chemical treatment or enzyme treatment. Further, the colloidal gold and the anti-diacetylspermine antibody may be bound via an affinity substance such as biotin / avidin or a compound such as modified PEG. Usually, an anti-diacetylspermine antibody is bound to a colloidal gold, followed by a blocking treatment with a protein such as albumin. As the blocking agent, bovine serum albumin (BSA) is preferable.
抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体は、測定対象のジアセチルスペルミンに対して特異的な免疫反応性を有するものであれば、ポリクローナル抗体またはモノクローナル抗体のいずれでもよい。通常は、測定対象のジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物と担体との結合物を動物に投与することにより産生させたポリクローナル抗体またはモノクローナル抗体であり、ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の蛋白質部分と反応しない抗体である。ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の蛋白質部分と反応する抗体が含まれている場合は、吸着処理などによって除くことができる。また、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体が、測定対象のジアセチルスペルミンに類似の化合物と反応し、測定値に影響を及ぼす場合には、その類似化合物と反応する抗体を除くことができる。このような類似化合物としては、例えば、N1−アセチルスペルミジン、N8−アセチルスペルミジン、N−アセチルスペルミン、N1,N8−ジアセチルスペルミジンなどが挙げられる。これらの類似化合物と反応する抗体を除くためには、例えば、各種のポリアミン誘導体を結合させた樹脂を用いた親和性クロマトグラフィーを利用することができる。特に好適な実施態様においては、非特許文献5に記載の方法に準じて、目的の抗体の親和性精製を行うことができる。 The anti-diacetylspermine antibody may be either a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody as long as it has specific immunoreactivity to the diacetylspermine to be measured. Usually, it is a polyclonal antibody or a monoclonal antibody produced by administering a conjugate of a diacetylspermine analogue compound to be measured and a carrier to an animal, and is an antibody that does not react with the protein portion of the diacetylspermine analogue-binding protein. When an antibody that reacts with the protein portion of the diacetylspermine analog-binding protein is contained, it can be removed by adsorption treatment or the like. Further, when an anti-diacetylspermine antibody reacts with a compound similar to diacetylspermine to be measured and affects the measured value, the antibody reacting with the similar compound can be excluded. Examples of such similar compounds include N 1 -acetylspermidine, N 8 -acetylspermidine, N-acetylspermine, N 1 , N 8 -diacetylspermidine, and the like. In order to remove antibodies that react with these similar compounds, for example, affinity chromatography using a resin bound with various polyamine derivatives can be used. In a particularly preferred embodiment, affinity purification of the target antibody can be performed according to the method described in Non-Patent Document 5.
抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を製造するための上記化合物における担体としては、該化合物が免疫原となり得るものであればいずれでもよく、例えば、蛋白質やポリペプチドなどが挙げられる。具体的には、アルブミン、グロブリン、ヘモシアニン、サイログロブリン、エデスチンなどが挙げられる。その中でも、好ましいのはアルブミンであり、特に好ましいのはBSAである。また、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を製造するためのハプテンと担体との結合物として、上記第1試薬に含有されるジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質、具体的には、N−アセチルスペルミンを1級アミノ基の部分で二価性架橋剤の一端にアミド結合させたのち、架橋剤の他端で担体蛋白質と結合させたものも使用され得る。本発明においては、二価性架橋剤としてGMBSを利用し、そして担体タンパク質として、BSAのリシン残基をメルカプトサクシニル化したBSA誘導体を利用することが特に好ましい。 The carrier for the above-mentioned compound for producing an anti-diacetylspermine antibody may be any carrier as long as the compound can serve as an immunogen, and examples thereof include proteins and polypeptides. Specific examples include albumin, globulin, hemocyanin, thyroglobulin, and edestin. Among them, albumin is preferable, and BSA is particularly preferable. Further, as a conjugate of a hapten and a carrier for producing an anti-diacetylspermine antibody, a diacetylspermine-like compound-binding protein contained in the first reagent, specifically, N-acetylspermine is a primary amino group. It is also possible to use an amide bond at one end of the bivalent crosslinker and a bond to the carrier protein at the other end of the crosslinker. In the present invention, it is particularly preferable to use GMBS as a bivalent cross-linking agent and to use a BSA derivative obtained by mercaptosuccinylating a lysine residue of BSA as a carrier protein.
ポリクローナル抗体は、上記のジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物と担体との結合物を抗原として使用し、この結合物を適切なアジュバントと混合して、ウサギ、モルモット、羊、山羊などのヒト以外の動物に非経口的に投与(免疫)し、血清を採取して当業者が通常用いる方法で処理することによって製造し得る。 Polyclonal antibodies are obtained by using a conjugate of the above-mentioned diacetylspermine analogue compound and a carrier as an antigen, mixing this conjugate with an appropriate adjuvant, and parenterally to non-human animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, sheep, goats, etc. Can be prepared (immunized), and serum can be collected and processed by methods commonly used by those skilled in the art.
モノクローナル抗体は、上記のように免疫された動物の脾臓細胞を採取し、当業者が通常用いるミルシュタインらの方法によって、ミエローマ細胞との細胞融合、抗体産生細胞スクリーニング、およびクローニングを行い、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を産生する細胞株を樹立し、これを培養することにより製造することができる。 Monoclonal antibodies are obtained by collecting spleen cells of an immunized animal as described above, performing cell fusion with myeloma cells, screening for antibody-producing cells, and cloning by methods commonly used by those skilled in the art. It can be produced by establishing a cell line that produces a spermine antibody and culturing it.
このようにして得られた抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体を、上述のように金コロイドに結合または吸着させることにより、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドが得られる。こうして得られた抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドは、特定のジアセチルスペルミンおよびジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質と特異的に結合する。 The anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid is obtained by binding or adsorbing the anti-diacetylspermine antibody thus obtained to the gold colloid as described above. The thus obtained anti-diacetylspermine antibody-binding gold colloid specifically binds to a specific diacetylspermine and a diacetylspermine analog-binding protein.
上記抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドは、反応液中での終濃度として、540nm(光路長1cm)での吸光度が1.5〜3.0となる金コロイド量であることが好ましい。金コロイドはその粒子径によって極大吸収が多少変化するが、540nm付近で極大吸収を示すため、この540nmでの吸光度に基づいて金コロイド濃度を規定することができる。より好ましい金コロイド量は、540nmでの吸光度で、1.9〜2.8であり、さらに好ましい金コロイド量は2.1〜2.6である。反応液中の抗ジアセチルスペルミン結合金コロイド量が、540nmでの吸光度で1.5より少ないと反応が進行し難く、一方、3.0より多いと試薬コストや測定精度面で好ましくない。 The anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid preferably has a gold colloid amount such that the absorbance at 540 nm (optical path length 1 cm) is 1.5 to 3.0 as the final concentration in the reaction solution. Although the maximum absorption of gold colloid varies slightly depending on the particle diameter, it exhibits a maximum absorption near 540 nm. Therefore, the gold colloid concentration can be defined based on the absorbance at 540 nm. A more preferable amount of colloidal gold is 1.9 to 2.8 in terms of absorbance at 540 nm, and a more preferable amount of colloidal gold is 2.1 to 2.6. If the amount of the anti-diacetylspermine-bonded gold colloid in the reaction solution is less than 1.5 in terms of absorbance at 540 nm, the reaction hardly proceeds. On the other hand, if it exceeds 3.0, it is not preferable in terms of reagent cost and measurement accuracy.
第2試薬には、必要に応じて、アジ化ナトリウム、糖類、有機酸類、アミノ酸類、緩衝剤、EDTAなどのキレート剤、各種動物由来のアルブミンや界面活性剤などをさらに含有させてもよい。これらの添加濃度は適宜選択できる。 The second reagent may further contain sodium azide, saccharides, organic acids, amino acids, buffers, chelating agents such as EDTA, albumins derived from various animals, surfactants, and the like, if necessary. These addition concentrations can be selected as appropriate.

Subsequently, 4.2 mg of hydroxylamine hydrochloride was added to 200 mg of AMS-BSA to obtain mercaptosuccinyl-BSA (MS-BSA). Next, the acetylspermine-GMB conjugate and MS-BSA were mixed to prepare an immunity antigen acetylspermine-GMB-BSA in which N-acetylspermine was acylamide-linked. In this way, an immunized antigen having a large number of diacetylspermine-like compounds as side chains was prepared by linking acetylspermine to an acylamide on a carrier.

50ng/mLのアセチルスペルミン結合BSAを含む第1試薬中の塩として、塩化ナトリウムを0%〜7%の間で変化させ、尿中ジアセチルスペルミンを測定したときの吸光度変化を検討した。結果を表1に示す。なお、このとき、第1試薬中のPEG濃度は1.6%または1.8%であり、アセチルスペルミン結合BSA量は50ng/mLであり、そして第2試薬中の抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドの測定液中での吸光度は(540nm(光路長1cm))は2.22であった。
(Examination of salt concentration and PEG concentration)
As a salt in the first reagent containing 50 ng / mL of acetylspermine-bound BSA, sodium chloride was changed between 0% and 7%, and changes in absorbance were measured when urinary diacetylspermine was measured. The results are shown in Table 1. At this time, the PEG concentration in the first reagent is 1.6% or 1.8%, the amount of acetylspermine-bound BSA is 50 ng / mL, and the anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid in the second reagent The absorbance in the measurement solution was (540 nm (optical path length: 1 cm)) was 2.22.
塩化ナトリウム濃度が0%の場合は、ジアセチルスペルミン濃度に依存した吸光度変化が認められず、測定できなかった。塩化ナトリウム濃度が1%〜5%と増加するに従って、ジアセチルスペルミンが0Mのときの吸光度差が小さくなった。塩化ナトリウム濃度が6%および7%の場合は、PEG濃度を1.8%にすることにより、ジアセチルスペルミンが0Mのときの吸光度差が大きくなった。このように、塩濃度が高すぎると、抗原抗体反応が抑制されるため、凝集促進のためにPEGなどの水溶性高分子物質を多く使用する必要が生じ、さらに好ましい塩濃度および好ましいPEG(水溶性高分子物質)濃度の厳密な設定が必要であった。これらのことから、塩化ナトリウム濃度が約2%の場合、ジアセチルスペルミン濃度に依存して明瞭に吸光度差が変化することがわかった。 When the sodium chloride concentration was 0%, no change in absorbance depending on the diacetylspermine concentration was observed, and measurement was not possible. As the sodium chloride concentration increased from 1% to 5%, the difference in absorbance when diacetylspermine was 0 M was reduced. When the sodium chloride concentration was 6% and 7%, the difference in absorbance when diacetylspermine was 0 M was increased by setting the PEG concentration to 1.8%. As described above, when the salt concentration is too high, the antigen-antibody reaction is suppressed. Therefore, it is necessary to use a large amount of a water-soluble polymer substance such as PEG for promoting aggregation, and more preferable salt concentration and preferable PEG (water solution It was necessary to set the concentration precisely. From these facts, it was found that when the sodium chloride concentration was about 2%, the absorbance difference clearly changed depending on the diacetylspermine concentration.
(抗ハプテン抗体結合金コロイド量についての検討)
2%の塩化ナトリウム、1.6%のPEG、および100ng/mLのアセチルスペルミン結合BSAを含む第1試薬を用い、そして測定液における540nm(光路長1cm)の吸光度が1.5〜3.0となるような量で抗ハプテン抗体結合金コロイド(抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイド)を含む第2試薬を用いて、尿中ジアセチルスペルミンを測定した。結果を表2に示す。
(Study on the amount of colloidal gold conjugated with anti-hapten antibody)
A first reagent containing 2% sodium chloride, 1.6% PEG, and 100 ng / mL acetylspermine-conjugated BSA was used, and the absorbance at 540 nm (optical path length 1 cm) in the measurement solution was 1.5 to 3.0. Urinary diacetylspermine was measured using a second reagent containing an anti-hapten antibody-bound gold colloid (anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid) in such an amount as follows. The results are shown in Table 2.
ジアセチルスペルミンが0Mのときの吸光度差が、抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイド量の増加に従って大きくなった。金コロイド量が少ない場合は、ジアセチルスペルミン濃度に依存的な吸光度差の変化(競合反応の進行)が小さいため好ましくない。金コロイド量が多い場合は使用可能であるが、試薬のコストや測定精度の面で好ましくない。これらの結果から、第2試薬中の金コロイド量は、測定液における540nm(光路長1cm)の吸光度が約2.5となる場合が好適であることがわかった。 The difference in absorbance when diacetylspermine was 0 M was increased as the amount of anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid was increased. A small amount of colloidal gold is not preferable because the change in absorbance difference depending on the diacetylspermine concentration (competitive reaction progress) is small. Although it can be used when the amount of colloidal gold is large, it is not preferable in terms of reagent cost and measurement accuracy. From these results, it was found that the amount of colloidal gold in the second reagent is suitable when the absorbance at 540 nm (optical path length 1 cm) in the measurement solution is about 2.5.
(ジアセチルスペルミン類似化合物結合蛋白質の量についての検討)
第1試薬中の競合物質であるハプテン結合蛋白質(アセチルスペルミン結合BSA)量を50ng/mL〜200ng/mLまで変化させて、尿中ジアセチルスペルミンを測定した。結果を表3に示す。このときの抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイド量は、測定反応液中で540nm(光路長1cm)の吸光度が2.5となる濃度であった。
(Study on the amount of diacetylspermine analog binding protein)
Urinary diacetylspermine was measured by changing the amount of hapten-binding protein (acetylspermine-bound BSA), which is a competitor in the first reagent, from 50 ng / mL to 200 ng / mL. The results are shown in Table 3. The amount of the anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid at this time was such a concentration that the absorbance at 540 nm (optical path length 1 cm) was 2.5 in the measurement reaction solution.
アセチルスペルミン結合BSA量に依存して、ジアセチルスペルミンが0Mのときの吸光度差が大きくなったが、いずれの濃度においても尿中ジアセチルスペルミン濃度に応じた吸光度差の低下が認められ、測定可能であることがわかった。 Depending on the amount of acetylspermine-bound BSA, the difference in absorbance when diacetylspermine was 0 M was increased, but at any concentration, a decrease in the absorbance difference according to the urinary diacetylspermine concentration was observed and measurable. I understood it.
実施例8:尿中ジアセチルスペルミンの測定
100ng/mLのアセチルスペルミン結合BSA、2%の塩化ナトリウム、および1.8%のPEGを含む第1試薬と、測定反応液中で540nm(1cm)の吸光度が2.5となる濃度の抗ジアセチルスペルミン抗体結合金コロイドを含む第2試薬とを用いて、尿中ジアセチルスペルミンを測定した。結果を図1に示す。図1から明らかなように、尿中ジアセチルスペルミン濃度に応じた吸光度差の低下が認められた。このように、ジアセチルスペルミンをng/mLからμg/mLまでの範囲で測定できることがわかった。
Example 8: Measurement of urinary diacetylspermine A first reagent containing 100 ng / mL acetylspermine-conjugated BSA, 2% sodium chloride, and 1.8% PEG, and absorbance at 540 nm (1 cm) in the measurement reaction solution Urinary diacetylspermine was measured using a second reagent containing an anti-diacetylspermine antibody-bound gold colloid at a concentration of 2.5. The results are shown in FIG. As is clear from FIG. 1, a decrease in the absorbance difference according to the urinary diacetylspermine concentration was observed.
