Description

Calcium binding protein methylation marker for auxiliary diagnosis of cancer
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medicine, in particular to a calcium-binding protein (S100P) methylation marker for auxiliary diagnosis of cancer.
Background
Lung cancer is a malignant tumor occurring in the epithelium of the bronchial mucosa, and the morbidity and mortality of lung cancer have been on the rise in recent decades, and the lung cancer is the cancer with the highest morbidity and mortality all over the world. Despite recent advances in diagnostic methods, surgical techniques, and chemotherapeutic drugs, the overall 5-year survival rate for lung cancer patients is only 16%, mainly because most lung cancer patients have metastasis at the time of treatment and thus lose the chance of radical surgical intervention. Research shows that the prognosis of lung cancer is directly related to stage, the 5-year survival rate of the lung cancer in stage I is 83%, the survival rate in stage II is 53%, the survival rate in stage III is 26%, and the survival rate in stage IV is 6%. Therefore, early diagnosis and early treatment are key to reducing mortality in lung cancer patients.
The current major lung cancer diagnostic methods are as follows: (1) the imaging method comprises the following steps: such as chest X-ray and low dose helical CT. Early stage lung cancer is difficult to detect by chest X-ray. Although the low-dose spiral CT can find small nodules in the lung, the false positive rate is as high as 96.4%, and unnecessary psychological burden is brought to a person to be examined. Meanwhile, chest X-ray and low dose helical CT are not suitable for frequent use due to radiation. In addition, imaging methods are often affected by the equipment and doctor's experience in viewing the film, as well as the time available for reading the film. (2) The cytological method comprises the following steps: such as sputum cytology, bronchoscopic biopsy or biopsy, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cytology, and the like. Sputum cytology and bronchoscopy swabs or biopsies have low sensitivity for peripheral lung cancer. Meanwhile, the operation of brushing a sheet under a bronchoscope or taking a biopsy and performing bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cytology is complicated, and the comfort level of a physical examiner is poor. (3) Serum tumor markers commonly used at present: carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA125/153/199), cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen (CYFRA21-1), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and the like. These serum tumor markers have limited sensitivity to lung cancer, typically 30% -40%, and even lower for stage I tumors. Moreover, tumor specificity is limited, and is affected by many benign diseases such as benign tumors, inflammations, degenerative diseases, and the like. At present, tumor markers are mainly used for screening malignant tumors and rechecking tumor treatment effects. Therefore, there is a need to further develop a highly efficient and specific early diagnosis technique for lung cancer.
The currently internationally accepted most effective method of pulmonary nodule diagnosis is chest low dose helical CT screening. However, low-dose helical CT has high sensitivity, and is difficult to identify benign or malignant nodules, although a large number of nodules can be found. Among the nodules found, the proportion of malignancy is less than 4%. Currently, the clinical identification of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules requires long-term follow-up, repeated CT examination, or invasive examination methods such as biopsy sampling (including fine needle biopsy of chest wall, bronchoscopic biopsy, thoracoscopic or open-chest lung biopsy) of pulmonary nodules. CT-guided or ultrasound-guided transthoracic puncture biopsy has higher sensitivity, but has a lower diagnosis rate for <2cm nodules, a 30-70% missed diagnosis rate, and a higher incidence rate of pneumothorax and hemorrhage. The incidence rate of complication of the bronchoscope needle biopsy is relatively low, but the diagnosis rate of peripheral nodules is limited, the diagnosis rate of the nodules is only 34% when the number of the nodules is less than or equal to 2cm, and the diagnosis rate of the nodules is 63% when the number of the nodules is more than 2 cm. The surgical resection has high diagnosis rate and can directly treat the nodules, but can cause the lung function of the patient to be temporarily reduced, and if the nodules are benign, the patient is subjected to unnecessary operations, thereby resulting in over-treatment. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new in vitro diagnostic molecular markers to assist in the identification of pulmonary nodules, and to minimize unnecessary punctures or surgeries while reducing the rate of missed diagnosis.
Pancreatic cancer is a common malignancy of the digestive tract, with about 90% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas, the fourth most lethal malignancy in the world today. Due to the characteristics of occult pathogenesis, poor specificity of clinical symptoms and early infiltrative, most pancreatic cancer patients are in an advanced stage when discovered, and lose the chance of surgical treatment, so that the 5-year survival rate is only 7 percent. Pancreatic cancer patients can reach 60% of 5-year survival if they can be found early (stage I). Currently, the common diagnostic methods for pancreatic cancer in clinic are: (1) the accuracy of ultrasonic diagnosis is limited by the doctor's experience of seeing the film, the patient's hypertrophic body and the gas in the gastrointestinal tract; generally, the method for diagnosing pancreatic cancer, ultrasound, can be applied as a supplementary examination of CT, but the enhanced CT has large radiation to the human body and is not easy to be frequently used; MRI has no radiation effect, but is not suitable for some people (metal objects, cardiac pacemakers and the like exist in the body), the examination time is long, and some small and medium hospitals are not popularized due to the fact that equipment is expensive. (2) The serum tumor markers such as CA19-9, CA242, CA50 and the like are clinically combined for further detection, have high sensitivity and low specificity and are easily influenced by liver function and cholestasis. (3) And (3) pathological examination: percutaneous aspiration biopsy, biopsy under the guidance of ultrasonic gastroscope, ascites exfoliation cytology and examination biopsy under laparoscopy or open surgery, but this method is invasive and not suitable for early patients. Therefore, more sensitive and specific early pancreatic cancer molecular markers are urgently to be discovered.
Esophageal cancer is a malignant tumor originating from the epithelium of the esophageal mucosa, of which about 80% are squamous cell carcinomas, which are one of the clinically common malignant tumors. Worldwide, the incidence of esophageal cancer is at the 8 th position in malignant tumors and the mortality is at the 6 th position. China is a country with high incidence of esophageal cancer, and the incidence rate of the cancer tends to increase gradually. At present, more than 90% of patients with esophageal cancer have progressed to the middle and advanced stage when the diagnosis is confirmed, and the overall 5-year survival rate is less than 20%. At present, the following methods are mainly used for detecting esophageal cancer clinically. Performing endoscopic ultrasonic examination: due to the low penetration of the high frequency probe, only

Even shorter, the visible range is very limited, and in addition
Figure BDA0002367852470000022
Patients cannot use this method because of excessive esophageal narrowing. Esophagoscopy: the esophagoscope can observe the position, size and shape of a focus in detail, and can also directly clamp pathological tissues or brush a sample with a brush for cytological examination, but the esophagoscope causes discomfort of a patient. X-ray barium meal radiography: the patient swallows the barium gruel during X-ray examination, and observes the development of the barium gruel when passing through the esophagus, so as to achieve qualitative and positioning diagnosis, which is influenced by the operation and the experience of seeing the slice of the doctor, and the method is not suitable for the patient with very early esophageal cancer. CT scanning: it is possible to show the relationship between the patient's oesophagus and the adjacent organs, but it has the disadvantage of low sensitivity for early patients. In addition, some common tumor markers such as CA72-4, CA19-9, CEA, CYFRA21-1, squamous cell carcinoma-associated antigen (SCC) and the like can be used for esophageal cancerThe sensitivity is less than 40%, the specificity is low, and the diagnostic value is low especially for early patients. Therefore, there is a need to further develop highly effective and specific early diagnosis techniques for esophageal cancer.
DNA methylation is an important chemical modification of genes, affecting the regulation of gene transcription and nuclear structure. Alterations in DNA methylation are early events and concomitant events in cancer progression, and are mainly manifested by hypermethylation of oncogenes and hypomethylation of proto-oncogenes in tumor tissues. However, the correlation between DNA methylation in blood and tumorigenesis and development has been reported to be relatively small. In addition, blood is easy to collect, DNA methylation is stable, and the clinical application value is huge if a tumor specific blood DNA methylation molecular marker can be found. Therefore, exploring and developing a blood DNA methylation diagnosis technology suitable for clinical detection needs has important clinical application value and social significance for improving early diagnosis and treatment effects of lung cancer and reducing mortality.

(A1) detecting the methylation level of the S100P gene of n 1A type samples and n 2B type samples (training set);
(A2) and (4) taking the methylation level data of the S100P genes of all samples obtained in the step (A1), establishing a mathematical model by a two-classification logistic regression method according to the classification modes of the A type and the B type, and determining a threshold value for classification judgment.

In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the threshold is set to 0.5. Greater than 0.5 is classified as one class and less than 0.5 is classified as another class, equal to 0.5 as an indeterminate gray zone. The type A and the type B are two corresponding classifications, grouping of the two classifications, which group is the type A and which group is the type B, and are determined according to a specific mathematical model without convention.
In practical applications, the threshold may also be determined according to the maximum johning index (specifically, may be a value corresponding to the maximum johning index). The gray areas greater than the threshold are classified into one category, the gray areas less than the threshold are classified into another category, and the gray areas equal to the threshold are regarded as uncertain gray areas. The type A and the type B are two corresponding classifications, grouping of the two classifications, which group is the type A and which group is the type B, and are determined according to a specific mathematical model without convention.

In practical applications, any one of the above mathematical models may be changed according to the detection method of DNA methylation and the fitting manner, and is determined according to a specific mathematical model without any convention.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the model is specifically log (y/(1-y)) ═ b0+ b1x1+ b2x2+ b3x3+ …. + bnXn, where y is a detection index obtained after a dependent variable is substituted into the model for the methylation value of one or more methylation sites of the sample to be detected, b0 is a constant, x1 to xn are independent variables, i.e., the methylation values of one or more methylation sites of the sample to be detected (each value is a value between 0 and 1), and b1 to bn are weights assigned to the methylation values of each site by the model.

The threshold of the model is 0.5. Patients with a detection index greater than 0.5 calculated by the model are candidates for lung cancer patients and patients with a detection index less than 0.5 are candidates for benign nodules in the lung.
In the above aspects, the detecting the methylation level of the S100P gene is detecting the methylation level of the S100P gene in blood.
In the above aspects, when the type a specimen and the type B specimen are specimens of different subtypes of lung cancer (C3), the type a specimen and the type B specimen may be specifically any two of a lung adenocarcinoma specimen, a lung squamous carcinoma specimen, and a small cell lung cancer specimen.
In the above aspects, when the type a specimen and the type B specimen are different stage specimens of (C4), the type a specimen and the type B specimen may be specifically any two of a clinical stage I lung cancer specimen, a clinical stage II lung cancer specimen, and a clinical stage III lung cancer specimen.

With the patient's informed consent, a total of 722 lung cancer patients, 152 patients with benign nodules in the lung, 79 pancreatic cancer patients, 118 esophageal cancer patients, and 945 cancer-free controls (cancer-free controls, i.e., no cancer had been present and had been reported, and no benign nodules in the lung and blood routine indices were within the reference range) were collected from ex vivo blood samples.
All patient samples were collected preoperatively and confirmed both imagewise and pathologically.
The subtypes of lung cancer, pancreatic cancer and esophageal cancer are judged according to the histopathology.

722 lung cancer patients were classified by lung cancer tumor size (T): t1603, T283 and T336.
722 lung cancer patients were classified by the presence or absence of lung cancer lymph node infiltration (N): there were 688 cases of lung cancer lymph node infiltration and 34 cases of lung cancer lymph node infiltration.
79 pancreatic cancer patients were classified by typing: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma 63 cases, and 16 other subtypes were counted.

Bis, methylation detection
1. Total DNA of the blood sample was extracted.
2. The total DNA of the blood sample prepared in step 1 was treated with bisulfite (see Qiagen for DNA methylation kit instructions). Following bisulfite treatment, unmethylated cytosine (C) is converted to uracil (U), while methylated cytosine remains unchanged, i.e., the C base of the original CpG site is converted to C or U following bisulfite treatment.
3. Taking the DNA treated by the bisulfite in the step 2 as a template, adopting 2 pairs of specific primers in the table 3 to perform PCR amplification by DNA polymerase according to a reaction system required by a conventional PCR reaction, wherein the 2 pairs of primers all adopt the same conventional PCR system, and the 2 pairs of primers all perform amplification according to the following procedures.

Methylation levels were calculated using the SpectroACQUIRE v3.3.1.3 software based on a comparison of the peak areas of the methylated and unmethylated fragments-containing peaks (SpectroACQUIRE v3.3.1.3 software automatically calculates the peak area to obtain the methylation level at each CpG site for each sample).
Third, result analysis
1. Methylation level of S100P gene in blood of cancer-free control, benign nodules and lung cancer
The methylation levels of all CpG sites in the S100P gene were analyzed using blood from 722 lung cancer patients, 152 patients with benign nodules in the lung, and 945 cancer-free controls as study material (Table 4). The results showed that the median methylation level of the S100P gene of the no-cancer control was 0.51(IQR ═ 0.38 to 0.67), the median methylation level of the S100P gene of the benign nodule was 0.46(IQR ═ 0.33 to 0.62), and the median methylation level of the lung cancer patients was 0.47(IQR ═ 0.34 to 0.64).
2. Methylation level of S100P gene in blood can distinguish non-cancer control from lung cancer patient
By comparatively analyzing the methylation levels of the S100P gene of 722 lung cancer patients and 945 cancer-free controls, it was found that the methylation levels of all CpG sites in the S100P gene of lung cancer patients were significantly lower than those of cancer-free controls (p <0.05, table 5). In addition, the methylation levels of all CpG sites of the S100P gene in different subtypes of lung cancer (lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous carcinoma and small cell lung cancer) are respectively obviously different from that of a cancer-free control. The methylation levels of all CpG sites of the S100P gene in different stages (clinical stage I and stage II-III) of lung cancer are respectively and remarkably different from that of a cancer-free control. In addition, methylation levels were significantly different between non-lymphoid lung cancer patients and lymphoid lung cancer patients, respectively, compared to non-cancer controls (p < 0.05). Therefore, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used for clinical diagnosis of lung cancer, and particularly can be used for early diagnosis of lung cancer.
3. Methylation level of S100P gene in blood can distinguish benign nodules of lung from lung cancer patients
We compared and analyzed the methylation level differences of the S100P gene between 722 lung cancer patients and 152 benign nodules, and found that the methylation level of all CpG sites in the S100P amplified fragment was significantly higher in lung cancer patients than in benign nodule patients (p <0.05, table 6). Furthermore, we found that the methylation levels of all CpG in the S100P gene were significantly higher in lung cancer patients of different subtypes (lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous carcinoma, small cell lung carcinoma), different clinical stages (stage I or II-III) and presence or absence of lymphatic infiltration than in benign nodules (p <0.05), respectively. Therefore, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be applied to distinguishing lung cancer patients from benign nodule patients, and is a very potential marker.
4. Differentiation of different subtypes or stages of lung cancer by methylation level of S100P gene in blood
By comparatively analyzing the methylation levels of the S100P genes of different subtypes of lung cancer patients (lung adenocarcinoma, lung squamous carcinoma and small cell lung cancer) and 945 cancer-free controls, the methylation levels of all CpG sites in the S100P gene are found to be significantly different under the conditions of different subtypes of lung cancer (lung adenocarcinoma patients, lung squamous carcinoma patients and small cell lung cancer patients), lung cancer tumor sizes (T1, T2 and T3), different stages of lung cancer (clinical stages I, II and III) and the presence or absence of lymph node infiltration (p <0.05, Table 7). Thus, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used to distinguish between different subtypes or stages of lung cancer.
5. Levels of S100P methylation in blood can distinguish pancreatic cancer patients from non-cancerous controls
The differences in methylation levels of all CpG sites in the S100P gene were analyzed using blood from 79 pancreatic cancer patients and 945 cancer-free controls as study material (table 8), of which 63 of 79 pancreatic cancer patients were pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The median methylation level of all target CpG sites in pancreatic cancer patients was 0.44(IQR ═ 0.31-0.60), the median methylation level of the no-cancer control group was 0.51(IQR ═ 0.38-0.67), and the methylation level of all CpG sites of the S100P gene was significantly lower in pancreatic cancer patients than in the no-cancer control (p < 0.0001). The median of all target CpG site methylation levels for 63 patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma was 0.43(IQR ═ 0.30-0.59), and the methylation levels were significantly lower than for the no-cancer control (p < 0.0001). Therefore, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used for clinical diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
6. Levels of S100P methylation in blood can distinguish esophageal patients from cancer-free controls
The differences in methylation levels of S100P between esophageal cancer patients and cancer-free controls were analyzed using blood from 118 esophageal cancer patients and 945 cancer-free controls (Table 9), including 94 esophageal squamous cell carcinomas in 118 esophageal cancers. The results showed that the median methylation level of all target CpG sites in esophageal cancer patients was 0.45(IQR ═ 0.32-0.61), the median methylation level of the cancer-free control group was 0.51(IQR ═ 0.38-0.67), and the methylation level of all CpG sites of the S100P gene in esophageal cancer patients was significantly lower than that of the cancer-free control (p < 0.0001). The median level of methylation for all CpG sites in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was 0.45(IQR ═ 0.32-0.61), and the level of methylation was significantly lower than that of the no-cancer control (p <0.0001, table 9). Therefore, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used for clinical diagnosis of esophageal cancer.
7. The methylation level of S100P in blood can distinguish pancreatic cancer patients from lung cancer patients
The differences in methylation levels of the S100P gene in the blood of pancreatic cancer patients and lung cancer patients were analyzed using the blood of 79 pancreatic cancer patients and 722 lung cancer patients as the study material (Table 10). The results show that the median methylation level of all CpG sites in pancreatic cancer patients is 0.44(IQR ═ 0.31-0.60), the median methylation level of lung cancer patients is 0.47(IQR ═ 0.34-0.64), and the methylation level of all CpG sites in pancreatic cancer patients is significantly lower than that of lung cancer patients (p < 0.05). Thus, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used to differentiate pancreatic cancer from lung cancer patients.
8. The methylation level of S100P in blood can distinguish esophageal cancer patients from lung cancer patients
The differences in the methylation level of the S100P gene in the blood of esophageal cancer patients and lung cancer patients were analyzed using the blood of 118 esophageal cancer patients and 722 lung cancer patients as the study material (Table 10). The results show that the median methylation level of all target CpG sites in esophageal cancer patients is 0.45(IQR ═ 0.32-0.61), the median methylation level of lung cancer patients is 0.47(IQR ═ 0.34-0.64), and the methylation level of all CpG sites in esophageal cancer patients is significantly lower than that of lung cancer patients (p < 0.05). Therefore, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used to distinguish esophageal cancer from lung cancer patients.
9. The methylation level of S100P in blood can distinguish pancreatic cancer patients from esophageal cancer patients
The differences in the methylation level of the S100P gene in the blood of 79 pancreatic cancer patients and 118 esophageal cancer patients were analyzed (Table 10). The results show that the median methylation level of all target CpG sites in pancreatic cancer patients is 0.44(IQR ═ 0.31-0.60), the median methylation level of all target CpG sites in esophageal cancer patients is 0.45(IQR ═ 0.32-0.61), and the methylation level of all CpG sites in pancreatic cancer patients is significantly lower than that of esophageal cancer patients (p < 0.05). Thus, the methylation level of the S100P gene can be used to distinguish pancreatic cancer patients from esophageal cancer patients.
10. Establishment of mathematical model for assisting cancer diagnosis
The mathematical model established by the invention can be used for achieving the following purposes:
(1) differentiating lung cancer patients from non-cancer controls;
(2) distinguishing lung cancer patients from lung benign nodule patients;
(3) differentiating pancreatic cancer patients from non-cancerous controls;

(6) distinguishing patients with esophageal cancer from patients with lung cancer;
(7) differentiating pancreatic cancer patients from esophageal cancer patients;
(8) distinguishing different subtypes of lung cancer;
(9) differentiate different stages of lung cancer.
The mathematical model is established as follows:
(A) the data source is as follows: 722 lung cancer patients, 152 patients with benign nodules in the lung, 79 pancreatic cancer patients, 118 esophageal cancer patients and 945 patients without cancer control isolated blood samples listed in step one have the target CpG sites (one or more combinations of tables 1-2) methylation level (the detection method is the same as step two).
The data can be added with known parameters such as age, sex, white blood cell count and the like according to actual needs to improve the discrimination efficiency.
(B) Model building
Selecting any two types of patient data of different types, namely training sets (such as non-cancer contrast and lung cancer patients, non-cancer contrast and pancreatic cancer patients, non-cancer contrast and esophageal cancer patients, lung benign nodule patients and lung cancer patients, lung cancer patients and pancreatic cancer patients, lung cancer patients and esophageal cancer patients, esophageal cancer patients and pancreatic cancer patients, lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous carcinoma patients, lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer patients, lung squamous carcinoma and small cell lung cancer patients, stage I lung cancer patients and stage II lung cancer patients, stage I lung cancer patients and stage III lung cancer patients, stage II lung cancer patients and stage III lung cancer patients) as data for establishing models according to needs, and establishing mathematical models by using statistical software such as SAS, R, SPSS and the like through a formula by using a statistical method of two-classification logistic regression. The numerical value corresponding to the maximum Johnson index calculated by the mathematical model formula is a threshold value or 0.5 is directly set as the threshold value, the detection index obtained after the sample to be detected is tested and substituted into the model calculation is classified into one class (B class) when being larger than the threshold value, and classified into the other class (A class) when being smaller than the threshold value, and the detection index is equal to the threshold value and is used as an uncertain gray zone. When a new sample to be detected is predicted to judge which type the sample belongs to, firstly, the methylation level of one or more CpG sites on the S100P gene of the sample to be detected is detected by a DNA methylation determination method, then the data of the methylation level are substituted into the mathematical model (if known parameters such as age, sex, white blood cell count and the like are included in the model construction, the step simultaneously substitutes the specific numerical value of the corresponding parameter of the sample to be detected into the model formula), the detection index corresponding to the sample to be detected is obtained by calculation, then the detection index corresponding to the sample to be detected is compared with the threshold value, and the sample to be detected belongs to which type is determined according to the comparison result.
Examples are: as shown in FIG. 1, the methylation level of a single CpG site or the methylation level of a combination of multiple CpG sites of the S100P gene in the training set is determined by statistical software such as SAS, R, SPSS, etc. by using a formula of two-class logistic regression to establish a mathematical model for distinguishing the A class from the B class. The mathematical model is here a two-class logistic regression model, specifically: log (y/(1-y)) + b0+ b1x1+ b2x2+ b3x3+ …. + bnXn, wherein y is a detection index obtained by substituting a dependent variable into a model about to be detected for the methylation value of one or more methylation sites of a sample, b0 is a constant, x1 to xn are independent variables, i.e., the methylation values of one or more methylation sites of the test sample (each value is a value between 0 and 1), and b1 to bn are weights assigned to the methylation values of each site by the model. In specific application, a mathematical model is established according to the methylation degree (x 1-xn) of one or more DNA methylation sites of a sample detected in a training set and known classification conditions (class A or class B, and the value of y is assigned with 0 and 1 respectively), so that the constant B0 of the mathematical model and the weights B1-bn of each methylation site are determined, and the value corresponding to the maximum johnson index calculated by the mathematical model is used as a threshold value or is directly set as a threshold value divided by 0.5. And (3) after the sample to be detected is tested and substituted into the model for calculation, the detection index (y value) obtained is classified as B when being larger than the threshold, classified as A when being smaller than the threshold, and is equal to the threshold to be used as an uncertain gray area. Where class A and class B are two corresponding classifications (a grouping of two classifications, which group is class A and which group is class B, determined according to a specific mathematical model, not to be construed herein), such as cancer-free controls and lung cancer patients, cancer-free controls and pancreatic cancer patients, cancer-free controls and esophageal cancer patients, benign nodules of the lung and lung cancer patients, lung cancer patients and pancreatic cancer patients, lung cancer patients and esophageal cancer patients, esophageal cancer patients and pancreatic cancer patients, lung adenocarcinoma and squamous carcinoma patients, lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer patients, squamous carcinoma and small cell lung carcinoma patients, stage I and stage II lung cancer patients, stage I and stage III lung cancer patients, and stage II and stage III lung cancer patients. When a sample of a subject is predicted to determine which class it belongs to, blood of the subject is first collected and then DNA is extracted therefrom. After transforming the extracted DNA with bisulfite, the methylation level of a single CpG site or the methylation level of a combination of multiple CpG sites of the S100P gene of the subject is detected by a DNA methylation detection method, and then the detected methylation data is substituted into the above mathematical model. If the methylation level of one or more CpG sites of the S100P gene of the subject is substituted into the mathematical model, and the calculated value, namely the detection index, is larger than the threshold value, the subject judges that the subject belongs to the class (B class) with the detection index larger than the threshold value in the training set; if the methylation level data of one or more CpG sites of the S100P gene of the subject is substituted into the mathematical model, and the calculated value, namely the detection index, is less than the threshold value, the subject belongs to the class (class A) with the detection index less than the threshold value in the training set; if the methylation level data of one or more CpG sites of the S100P gene of the subject is substituted into the above mathematical model, the calculated value, i.e., the detection index, is equal to the threshold, it cannot be determined whether the subject is of class A or B.
Examples are: the schematic diagram of fig. 2 illustrates the methylation of preferred CpG sites of S100P _ B (S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17 and S100P _ B _19) and the application of mathematical modeling for the discrimination of good and malignant nodules in the lung: data of methylation levels of combinations of 10 distinguishable CpG sites of S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17 and S100P _ B _19, which have been detected in training sets of lung cancer patients and lung benign nodule patients (here: 722 lung cancer patients and 152 lung benign nodule patients), and ages, sexes (male assignment 1, female assignment 0) of patients, white cell counts of patients were established by R software using a formula of two-class logistic regression to establish a mathematical model for distinguishing lung cancer patients from lung nodule patients. The mathematical model is here a two-class logistic regression model, whereby the constant b0 of the mathematical model and the weights b1 to bn of the individual methylation sites are determined, in this case specifically: log (y/(1-y)) -0.364+0.556 x S100P _ B _1,2+2.259 x S100P _ B _3-0.686 x S100P _ B _5-3.811 x S100P _ B _7,8+4.102 x S100P _ B _9-2.525 x S100P _ B _12+0.575 x S100P _ B _13-1.496 x S100P _ B _14+6.669 x S100P _ B _15,16,17-4.183 x S100P _ B _19+ 0.022-0.843 x gender (assigned as 1, assigned as 0) -0.045 x.y) was obtained as a result of the substitution of y into the methyl-based age index of the sample and the gender of the sample to be tested. Under the condition that 0.5 is set as a threshold, methylation levels of 10 distinguishable CpG sites of S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17 and S100P _ B _19 of a sample to be detected are tested and then are substituted into a model together with information of age, sex and white cell count, and the obtained detection index, namely y value, is more than 0.5 and is classified as a lung cancer patient, less than 0.5 is classified as a lung benign patient, and is not classified as a lung cancer patient or a lung nodule patient if the y value is equal to 0.5. The area under the curve (AUC) calculation for this model was 0.64 (table 14). As an example of the method for determining the subject, as shown in FIG. 2, DNA is extracted from blood collected from two subjects (A, B), and the extracted DNA is converted by bisulfite, and then the methylation levels of 10 distinguishable CpG sites of S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17 and S100P _ B _19 of the subjects are measured by a DNA methylation measurement method. The detected methylation level data is then substituted into the mathematical model described above, along with information on the age, sex, and white blood cell count of the subject. The first test subject is judged to be a lung cancer patient if the value calculated by the mathematical model of the first test subject is 0.81 and more than 0.5; and B, judging the second subject as a lung benign nodule patient if the value of the second subject calculated by the mathematical model is 0.12 to less than 0.5.
(C) Evaluation of model Effect
According to the above method, mathematical models for distinguishing lung cancer patients and non-cancer controls, lung cancer patients and benign nodule patients, pancreatic cancer patients and non-cancer controls, non-cancer controls and esophageal cancer patients, lung cancer patients and pancreatic cancer patients, lung cancer patients and esophageal cancer patients, pancreatic cancer patients and esophageal cancer patients, lung adenocarcinoma and squamous lung cancer patients, lung adenocarcinoma and small-cell lung cancer patients, squamous lung cancer and small-cell lung cancer patients, stage I lung cancer and stage II lung cancer patients, stage I lung cancer and stage III lung cancer patients, stage II lung cancer and stage III lung cancer patients, respectively, are established, and the effectiveness thereof is evaluated by a subject curve (ROC curve). The larger the area under the curve (AUC) obtained by the ROC curve, the better the discrimination of the model, and the more effective the molecular marker. The results of the evaluation after the mathematical model construction using different CpG sites are shown in table 11, table 12 and table 13. In tables 11, 12 and 13, 1 CpG site represents a site of any CpG site in the amplified fragment of S100P _ B, 2 CpG sites represent a combination of any 2 CpG sites in S100P _ B, 3 CpG sites represent a combination of any 3 CpG sites in S100P _ B, and so on in … …. The values in the table are ranges for the results of different site combinations (i.e., results for any combination of CpG sites are within the range).
The above results show that the discriminatory ability of the S100P gene for each group (lung cancer patient and non-cancer control, lung cancer patient and lung benign nodule patient, pancreatic cancer patient and non-cancer control, esophageal cancer patient and non-cancer control, pancreatic cancer patient and lung cancer patient, esophageal cancer patient and lung cancer patient, pancreatic cancer patient and esophageal cancer patient, lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous carcinoma patient, lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer patient, lung squamous carcinoma and small cell lung cancer patient, stage I lung cancer and stage II lung cancer patient, stage I lung cancer and stage III lung cancer patient, stage II lung cancer and stage III lung cancer patient) increases with the number of loci.
In addition, among the CpG sites shown in tables 1 to 2, there are cases where a combination of a few preferred sites is better in discrimination than a combination of a plurality of non-preferred sites. Combinations of 10 distinguishable CpG sites, such as S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17, and S100P _ B _19 shown in table 14, table 15, and table 16, are preferred sites for any ten combinations in S100P _ B.
Taken together, CpG sites on the S100P gene and various combinations thereof, CpG sites on the S100P _ A fragment and various combinations thereof, CpG sites on the S100P _ B fragment and various combinations thereof, S100P _ B _1,2, S100P _ B _3, S100P _ B _5, S100P _ B _7,8, S100P _ B _9, S100P _ B _12, S100P _ B _13, S100P _ B _14, S100P _ B _15,16,17 and S100P _ B _19 sites and various combinations thereof on the S100P _ B fragment, and methylation levels of CpG sites on the S100P _ A and S100P _ B and various combinations thereof all for lung cancer patients and non-cancer nodule-free controls, lung cancer patients and lung cancer patients, pancreatic cancer patients and non-esophageal cancer controls, pancreatic cancer patients and lung cancer patients, lung cancer patients and lung cancer patients, Patients with squamous cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer, patients with stage I lung cancer and stage II lung cancer, patients with stage I lung cancer and stage III lung cancer, and patients with stage II lung cancer and stage III lung cancer have discrimination ability.
