ABSTRACT

Theranostics combines diagnostics and therapeutic exposure. Regarding glioblastomas, theranostics solves the problem of detecting and destroying tumor stem cells resistant to irradiation and chemotherapy and causing tumor recurrence. Transmembrane surface antigen CD133 is considered as a potential marker of tumor stem cells. OBJECTIVE: To detect CD133 in patient-derived glioblastoma continuous cell cultures using fluorescence microscopy and modified aptamers (molecular recognition elements) anti-CD133. MATERIAL AND METHODS: To detect CD133, we used mousey fluorescence monoclonal antibodies anti-CD133 MA1-219, FAM-modified DNA aptamers anti-CD133 AP-1-M and Cs5. Non-aptamer DNA oligonucleotide NADO was used as a negative control. Detection was performed for three samples of patient-derived glioblastoma continuous cell cultures coded as 1548, 1721 and 1793. RESULTS: MA1-219 antibodies brightly stained cell culture 1548, to a lesser extent - 1721. There was diffuse staining of cell culture 1793. Cs5-FAM aptamer stained cells in a similar way, but much weaker. AP-1-M-FAM aptamer interacted with cells even weaker and diffusely stained only cell culture 1793. Non-aptamer NADO did not stain cell culture 1548 and very weakly diffusely stained cell culture 1793. CONCLUSION: For both molecular recognition elements (MA1-219 antibody and Cs5 aptamer), 3 cell culture samples can be arranged in the following order possibly reflecting CD133 status decrease strong signal for cell culture 1548, much weaker for 1721, even weaker for 1793. Only cell culture 1548 can be considered CD133 positive with combination of Cs5+ and NADO signals. Cell culture 1793 is CD133 false positive with combination of Cs5+ and NADO+ signals.
