Background
Malignant tumors are a serious disease threatening human life and health. Although tumor treatment has advanced sufficiently, the high mortality rate has not been effectively controlled. According to the national cancer statistical data of the latest stage of the national cancer center (the registration data of malignant tumors in 2014 of the national 31 provincial municipality and municipality tumor registration center collected and summarized by the national cancer registration center in 2017), the number of new cases of the national malignant tumors is 380.4 ten thousands, the normalized incidence rate is 174.0/10 ten thousands, and the average level is slightly lower than the average level in the world of 182.3/10 thousands. However, the incidence of Chinese cancer accounts for about 22% of the world, and the incidence is the first worldwide. The cancer death cases in China exceed 200 ten thousand, account for about 27 percent of the whole world, and the normalized mortality rate is 122.2/10 ten thousand, which is higher than the average level in the world of 102.4/10 ten thousand. Due to lack of early screening of cancer and late time of treatment, the 5-year survival rate of Chinese cancer is only 30.9%, while more than 70% of the cancer is common in developed countries.
Taking gastric cancer as an example, about 68 ten thousand new gastric cancer cases and about 49.8 ten thousand death cases are newly added in China every year; the number of the attack accounts for about 50% of the number of new cases in the world. The 5-year survival rate of the gastric cancer patients is closely related to the intervention period, the 5-year survival rate of the gastric cancer patients in the middle and late stages is lower than 15 percent, and the 5-year survival rate of the gastric cancer patients in the early stages exceeds 90 percent. Therefore, the early diagnosis and screening level of the gastric cancer is improved, and the method has important significance for controlling the growth of gastric cancer population, prolonging the life cycle of patients and improving the life quality. At present, endoscopic (gastroscope) -based imaging examinations are widely used in clinical and physical examinations. By combining with slice pathological analysis, the change of the mucosa of early gastric cancer can be found by gastroscopy, but the problems that IIb type early gastric cancer is difficult to find, the success rate of accurate biopsy material taking is unstable, the misdiagnosis risk is caused and the like still exist. Furthermore, gastroscopy compliance is poor, and 70% of the examinees are afraid of gastroscopy because of fear, tension and anxiety caused by invasion. Upper gastrointestinal damage and cross-contamination due to poor operator experience or improper equipment cleaning has also been reported. Other image examination means such as X-ray or CT scanning are mostly applied to preoperative evaluation and surgical scheme making, and the early diagnosis significance is limited. The detection of protein molecular markers, such as CEA and CA19-9, etc., has low specificity to gastric cancer, and is generally used as a prognostic monitoring index. In conclusion, the development of a novel gastric cancer early diagnosis technology realizes early, sensitive and specific diagnosis of gastric cancer, and has great significance.
In recent years, studies have found that there is an abnormal level of gene methylation in DNA isolated from the plasma of tumor patients; gene methylation may be an important molecular feature in tumorigenesis and tumor development.
Ring finger protein 180 (RNF 180) has effects of inhibiting cell proliferation and inducing apoptosis, and is involved in lymphatic metastasis of gastric cancer. In recent years, researches show that the methylation state of CpG sites in the promoter sequence of RNF180 gene is closely related to the occurrence, the course and the prognosis of gastric cancer. Some researches suggest that the RNF180 gene methylation detection may have the application value of molecular diagnosis in vitro of gastric cancer.
Rerimo is a glycosylated cytoplasmic protein that acts as a downstream effector of p53, causing a block in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle, and has the effect of inhibiting cell proliferation. It is reported that in gastric cancer, replimo acts as a cancer suppressor gene, and its expression is deleted in some samples due to abnormal methylation state of the promoter region. Research suggests that replimo or its methylation may have potential application in gastric cancer diagnosis.
Conventional methylation detection includes methylation specific PCR (msp), methylation specific fluorescence PCR (methylight), and bisulfite sequencing.
Methylation Specific PCR (MSP) and methylation specific fluorescence PCR (methylight) are both performed by sulfite treatment of sample DNA to convert unmethylated cytosine to thymine while retaining methylated cytosine; and then carrying out PCR (polymerase chain reaction) matched with agar gel electrophoresis by using methylation/non-methylation specific primers and then developing or detecting the methylation degree in the DNA of the sample by using a fluorescence PCR luminescence method.
Sulfite sequencing also first sulfite the sample DNA and PCR amplification with the universal primer (containing no CpG island and thus capable of amplifying both methylated and unmethylated templates); and sequencing the amplified product, and identifying the methylation sites and the degree in the sample DNA according to the difference between the methylation sequence and the non-methylation sequence.
However, the bisulfite sequencing method has high cost, low flux and complex operation, and is not suitable for being widely applied to early diagnosis and screening. Methylation-specific PCR (msp) and methylation-specific fluorescence PCR (methylight) are always deficient in primer specificity, methylated primers also have a certain probability of amplifying unmethylated templates by mismatch: theoretically, a single primer will contain no more than 3 CpG sequences, and thus a primer pair of an unmethylated template will have no more than 6 base sites that match methylated primers. The methylation detection sample is a mixture of methylated template and unmethylated template, and the unmethylated template usually accounts for more than 90% of the total template amount, so that MSP and methylight have the defect of false positive. Therefore, it is important to specifically exclude the mismatch of methylated primers to unmethylated templates in practical measurement.

The term "forward primer" and "forward primer" are used interchangeably in this disclosure, and "reverse primer" are used interchangeably.
In a first aspect, the present disclosure provides methods, kits and related applications for DNA methylation detection by methylation sensitive restriction enzyme treatment.
In this aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for detecting methylation of a gene, the method comprising treating a DNA sample with a methylation sensitive restriction enzyme, and determining the methylation of a DNA (e.g., a gene) to be detected, e.g., determining whether the DNA is methylated and/or the degree of methylation of the DNA, based on the results of DNA amplification of the DNA sample with and without the enzyme treatment.
Methylation of human (e.g., cancer patients, such as gastric cancer patients) DNA typically occurs at CpG islands where the 5' carbon of cytosine is modified by a methyl group. Methylation of specific fragments in genes was detected using palindromic sequences specifically recognized by methylation specific restriction endonucleases. For example, when cytosine in an enzyme recognition fragment in a specific fragment is methylated, the fragment is not cleaved; the enzyme recognition fragment of the specific fragment in the unmethylated state will be cleaved. For example, by designing specific primers and probes containing at least one methylation-sensitive restriction endonuclease recognition sequence or fragment thereof for PCR amplification of the sequence to be amplified, the methylated fragments can generate an amplification signal, while the unmethylated fragments do not. By designing at least one section of amplification primer containing a corresponding enzyme recognition palindromic sequence or a section thereof, a detection probe and a nucleic acid section to be amplified, the quantitative detection of the methylation degree of the gene can be realized.
As an example, the methylation sensitive restriction enzyme can be a methylation sensitive restriction enzyme that contains a CpG in the enzyme recognition sequence. The enzyme may be an enzyme that specifically cleaves an unmethylated sequence, and may be one or more enzymes selected from BstUI enzyme, HpaII enzyme, and hhal enzyme. The amplification primers and/or probes may comprise palindromic sequences or fragments thereof recognized by the enzyme.
The gene detected may be RNF180 and/or replimo.
The methylation sensitive restriction enzyme can also be an enzyme that specifically cleaves a methylated sequence. From the amplification results of a DNA sample digested with a methylation sensitive restriction enzyme and a DNA sample not digested with the enzyme, the methylation state, such as methylation and the methylation degree of a DNA (e.g., a gene) to be tested can be determined. The methylation sensitive restriction enzyme is preferably selected from methylation specific restriction enzymes containing a CpG in the enzyme recognition sequence, more preferably McrBC.
The gene detected may be RNF180 and/or replimo.
In one embodiment, the gene is the RNF180 gene, preferably the amplification primers and/or probes are directed against the promoter region of the RNF180 gene. For example, the primers and/or probes may amplify and/or detect a sequence comprising or being selected from the group consisting of:
CTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAACC(SEQ IDNO:1);
CTTTCCCACGGTTCCGTCTGGCCCGCGGCGCTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAACC (SEQ ID NO: 2); and
ACTTTCCCACGGTTCCGTCTGGCCCGCGGCGCTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAACCCGCAGACGTGGGGCGAGGCTGGCTGTGGCGGGCGAG(SEQ ID NO:3)。
preferably, the amplification primers and/or probes can amplify and/or detect a palindromic sequence recognized by the enzyme in the promoter region of the RNF180 gene or a fragment thereof that includes a methylation site. In a more preferred embodiment, the amplification primers and probes comprise or are sequences selected from SEQ ID NOS 4-6:
CTTGTCTGCCTGCG (RNF180 upstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:4),
GGTTCCCACCCGAGC (RNF180 downstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:5),
GGGTCAAAGCCCGGCG (RNF180 detection probe sequence) (SEQ ID NO: 6).
In another embodiment, the gene is a replimo gene, preferably the amplification primers and/or probes are directed against the promoter region of the replimo gene, e.g., the primers and/or probes can amplify and/or detect a sequence comprising or being selected from the group consisting of:
CAGATCGCGGTCATGTGCGTGCTCTCACTCACCGTGGTCTTCGGCATCTTCTTCC(SEQ ID NO:7),
CAGATCGCGGTCATGTGCGTGCTCTCACTCACCGTGGTCTTCGGCATCTTCTTCCTCGGCTGCAATCTGCTCATCAAGTCCGAGGG(SEQ ID NO:8),
CAGATCGCGGTCATGTGCGTGCTCTCACTCACCGTGGTCTTCGGCATCTTCTTCCTCGGCTGCAATCTGCTCATCAAGTCCGAGGGCATGATCAACTTCCTCGTGAA(SEQ ID NO:9)。
preferably, the amplification primers and/or probes may comprise palindromic sequences recognized by the enzyme in the promoter region of the replimo gene or fragments thereof comprising a methylation site. In a more preferred embodiment, the amplification primers and probes comprise or are sequences selected from SEQ ID NOS: 10-12:
CAGATCGCGGTCATGT (replimo upstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:10),
GGAAGAAGATGCCGAAG (replimo downstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:11),
CGTGCTCTCACTCACCGTG (Repmo detection probe sequence) (SEQ ID NO: 12).
In this respect, the disclosure also relates to kits comprising said methylation sensitive restriction enzyme and related uses of said methylation sensitive restriction enzyme.
As described above, conventional methylation detection methods (e.g., Methylation Specific PCR (MSP) and methylation specific fluorescence PCR (methylight)) are always deficient in primer specificity, and methylated primers also have a certain probability of amplifying unmethylated templates by mismatching. Theoretically, a single primer will contain no more than 3 CpG sequences, and thus a primer pair of an unmethylated template will have no more than 6 base sites that match methylated primers. The methylation detection sample is a mixture of methylated template and unmethylated template, and the unmethylated template usually accounts for more than 90% of the total template amount, so that MSP and methylight have the defect of false positive. Therefore, it is important to specifically exclude the mismatch of methylated primers to unmethylated templates in practical measurement.
In a second aspect, aiming at the problems stated above, the present disclosure provides a method and a kit with simple operation, high sensitivity, strong specificity, high quantification degree, and repeatability and stability superior to those of the prior art by adding a PCR blocking agent and screening an internal reference gene.
In this aspect, the present disclosure provides a method for detecting methylation of a DNA (e.g., a gene), the method comprising providing a blocking agent upon amplification of a DNA sample after conversion treatment (e.g., with bisulfite and/or bisulfite) of the DNA sample.
The blocking agent is or comprises a sequence complementary to a sequence of the gene after transformation of a contiguous unmethylated sequence, and the 3' end group of the blocking agent is such that the blocking agent cannot be extended during DNA amplification, wherein the contiguous unmethylated sequence:
(i) is or comprises a region to which an amplification primer is directed or a fragment thereof, wherein the fragment comprises most or all of the methylation sites to be detected in the region, or
(ii) Is or comprises the region to which the detection probe is directed or a fragment thereof, wherein said fragment comprises most or all of the methylation sites to be detected in said region, or
(iii) Comprising a region or fragment thereof to which an upstream or downstream primer is directed and a region or fragment thereof to which a detection probe is directed, and covering at least 35% (e.g., at least 40%) of the sum of the sequences of both the region to which the upstream or downstream primer is directed and the region to which the probe is directed, wherein the fragment comprises at least one methylation site in the region to be detected.
The term "substantial portion" as used in this disclosure has the meaning commonly understood by those skilled in the art, i.e., more than 50%. If the region contains 3 methylation sites to be detected, then "the fragment comprises most or all of the methylation sites to be detected in the region" means that the fragment comprises at least two methylation sites to be detected.
When the unmethylated sequence includes (1) the region targeted by the upstream or downstream primer (primer binding region) or fragment thereof and (2) the region targeted by the detection probe (probe binding region) or fragment thereof, the unmethylated can cover at least 35%, e.g., at least 40%, at least 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, etc., or even 100% of (the region targeted by the upstream or downstream primer + the region targeted by the probe). For example, if the region a targeted by the downstream primer is 15bp long and the region B targeted by the probe is 20bp long, the contiguous unmethylated sequences can cover, for example, 7bp in a and 7bp in B (14/(15+20) ═ 40%), all 15bp in a and 5bp in B (20/(15+20) ═ 57.1%), and so forth.
The blocking agent of the present disclosure is or comprises a sequence complementary to a sequence of a continuous segment of unmethylated sequence in the gene to be tested after transformation (i.e., 100% match), and thus has a higher binding affinity to the unmethylated template than the binding affinity between the methylated primer and the unmethylated template, which can reduce the probability of mispairing of the methylated primer to the unmethylated template. By the design of the blocking agent, the overall specificity of the reaction is improved, and false positive amplification caused by mismatching can be effectively inhibited; and the interference of background signals can be reduced, and the sensitivity of the reaction is further optimized. By introducing the blocking agent, the detection rate of positive can be improved, and false positive caused by primer mismatching or too complex sample DNA background can be eliminated, so that the correctness, reliability and stability of a detection result are ensured.
In the technical scheme of the disclosure, the 3' end group of the blocking agent is a group which can prevent the blocking agent from being extended during amplification. Such a gene is known to those skilled in the art and may be, for example, one of a phosphate group, a spacer C3(Space C3), a spacer C9(Space C9), and a spacer 18(Space 18). As known to those skilled in the art, the spacer C3 is a short carbon chain containing 3 carbon atoms; spacer C9 is a short carbon chain containing 9 carbon atoms; spacer 18 is an amide compound.
In one embodiment of this aspect, the method using a blocking agent is used to detect RNF180 methylation. In certain embodiments, the primers and probes are directed to the promoter region of the RNF180 gene, e.g., the primers and/or probes can amplify and/or detect a sequence comprising or being selected from the group consisting of:
CGCTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAA(SEQ IDNO:13),
CACGGTTCCGTCTGGCCCGCGGCGCTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAA(SEQ ID NO:14),
ACTTTCCCACGGTTCCGTCTGGCCCGCGGCGCTTGTCTGCCTGCGCGGGGTCAAAGCCCGGCGCCGCCCACGCGCGGCTCGGGTGGGAACCCGCAGACGTGGGGCGAGCAGGGCCGCTGGCTGTGGCGGG(SEQ ID NO:15)。
wherein the primers, probes and blockers used in the method may be or comprise a sequence selected from:
CGTTTGTTTGTTTGCG (RNF180 upstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:16),
TTCCCACCCGAACC (RNF180 downstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:17),
GGGTTAAAGTTCGGCGTCGTT (RNF180 detection probe sequence) (SEQ ID NO:18),
TTCCCACCCAAACCACACAT (RNF180 blocker sequence) (SEQ ID NO: 19).
In another embodiment of this aspect, the method utilizing a blocking agent is used to detect replimo methylation. In certain embodiments, the primers and probes are directed to the promoter region of the replimo gene, e.g., the primers and/or probes can amplify and/or detect a sequence comprising or being selected from the group consisting of:
CTCGTGAAGGACCGGAGGCCGTCTAAGGAGGTGGAGGCGGTGGTCGTGGGGCCCTA(SEQ ID NO:20),
AGTCCGAGGGCATGATCAACTTCCTCGTGAAGGACCGGAGGCCGTCTAAGGAGGTGGAGGCGGTGGTCGTGGGGCCCTACTGACCCGCCC(SEQ ID NO:21),
TCGGCTGCAATCTGCTCATCAAGTCCGAGGGCATGATCAACTTCCTCGTGAAGGACCGGAGGCCGTCTAAGGAGGTGGAGGCGGTGGTCGTGGGGCCCTACTGACCCGCCCT(SEQ ID NO:22)。
wherein the replimo primers, probes and blockers used in this method may be or comprise a sequence selected from:
TTCGTGAAGGATCGGA (replimo upstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:23),
TAAAACCCCACGACC (replimo downstream primer sequence) (SEQ ID NO:24),
CCGCCTCCACCTCCTTAAACGA (replimo detection probe sequence) (SEQ ID NO:25),
TAAAACCCCACAACCACCACC (Repmo blocker sequence) (SEQ ID NO: 26).
In a second aspect, the disclosure also relates to kits and related uses employing the blocking agents.
In particular, in methylation detection taking plasma as a sample, the DNA source is fragmented DNA, and the ALU-C4 gene (such as ALU-C4 genome repetitive subsequence) is selected and can be more accurately used as an internal reference of original DNA of the sample for calculation, while other internal reference genes, such as β -actin (β -actin), globulin (Globin) and the like, can only be used as a quality control standard due to low content in fragment DNA and no positive proportion relation with actually detected genes, and cannot assist content determination through Ct values of the internal reference genes.
