Description

Paraffin Embedding (FFPE) reference substance for detecting fusion gene RNA expression and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of gene detection, in particular to a Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) reference product for detecting fusion gene RNA expression and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
With the development of RNA detection technology, more and more fusion genes are gradually discovered in tumors. Gene fusion is a common feature of tumors, can promote the generation and development of tumors, and can be used as a molecular diagnosis and treatment target of tumors. Of all fusion mutations, 35% are kinase-associated mutations (n: 268), accounting for approximately one third. Since most of the kinase fusion mutations are continuously acquired in function, the kinase fusion mutation becomes a valid oncogenic mutation index and target. Fusion gene screening has become an important and necessary test marker before using targeted inhibitors to treat lung cancer. The national comprehensive cancer network clinical practice guideline, the European medical oncology society of cancer consensus and the Chinese expert consensus on molecular targeted therapy of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are all clearly suggested: before receiving treatment, NSCLC patients should detect EGFR, ALK and ROS1 genes, determine corresponding treatment strategies according to the gene states, and recommend that the detection of the three genes be carried out simultaneously under the condition permission.
The gene detection needs reference substances for quality control. At present, few reports exist on RNA standard products, and an RNA quality control product (CN108085391A) of a lung cancer fusion gene detection kit capable of being stably stored adopts a method that fusion gene fragments are amplified by PCR and connected to plasmid to transform competent cells, pseudovirus solution is prepared, and RNA is extracted. This method has the following disadvantages: 1. the RNA solution has great difference with the common FFPE sample form of a tumor patient, and the form of a clinical sample cannot be well simulated; 2. the RNA solution cannot control the process of extracting RNA from FFPE; 3. RNA is derived from a few kinds of RNA expressed by plasmids, has great difference with total RNA expressed by human cells, cannot well simulate the state of fusion gene RNA existing in the total RNA in a clinical sample, and cannot be applied to RNA high-throughput sequencing such as RNA-seq.
