Description

Method, probe library and kit for detecting tumor ctDNA methylation with high throughput and high sensitivity
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to a method for detecting DNA methylation with high flux and high sensitivity.
Background
Cancer is a general term for a series of malignant tumors and is one of the leading causes of human death worldwide. In 2020, 996 ten thousand cases of cancer deaths worldwide, of which 180 ten thousand lung cancer deaths account for 18% of the total number of cancer deaths, being the highest cancer mortality worldwide. The main treatment methods of cancer include surgical treatment, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy and the like, but the average five-year survival rate of patients with advanced cancer is only 26%. However, cancer patients who are discovered, diagnosed and treated early often have better treatment effect, and the average five-year survival rate is 91%, so early tumor screening can effectively reduce the death rate.
Early screening of tumors has been mainly performed by conventional detection and liquid biopsy. Traditional tests include tumor markers, endoscopy, imaging, and the like. The number of tumor markers is large, and false positive is high; the time of finding the tumor focus by imaging is too late; endoscopy is only suitable for some cancer types such as gastric cancer, colorectal cancer and the like, and the adaptability of patients is low. In recent years, the role of liquid biopsy in cancer screening and treatment has rapidly been gaining importance. The liquid biopsy can obtain information of base mutation, methylation and copy number variation by detecting Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood, and has the advantages of simple sampling, high sensitivity and high specificity.
ctDNA can be used for early screening and process detection of various tumors (such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, leukemia and lung cancer) by means of detecting methylation, gene mutation and the like. ctDNA methylation is considered as one of the main means for early diagnosis of cancer, and early detection of ctDNA methylation can detect cancer four years earlier than conventional blood diagnosis. In contrast to the high degree of individualization of gene mutations, methylation detection generally targets the promoter region of a particular gene. The early stage of tumorigenesis is usually accompanied by abnormal promoter methylation, the methylation is a common characteristic of different cancers, and ctDNA accurately distinguishes 50 kinds of cancers (colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer and the like) in different stages by using methylation information. Abnormal DNA methylation can be used as a biomarker, and studies have shown that STRATIFIN gene is methylated in 96% of breast cancer patients and GSTP1 gene is methylated in more than 90% of prostate cancer patients. The ctDNA methylation detection biological sample is easy to obtain, when tumors occur, the tumor cell DNA is released into peripheral blood, is enriched in serum and plasma, has the DNA content which is several times higher than that of the peripheral blood of normal people, and can detect the promoter methylation in the peripheral blood plasma, the serum and body fluid (such as saliva, sputum and the like) related to tumor organs.
Currently, methylation of ctDNA based on bisulfite conversion is the most widespread research method for ctDNA, but ctDNA is easily fragmented after bisulfite treatment and cannot be completely converted. In addition, previous techniques have often used single or multiple PCR to detect single or small numbers of methylated sites, which is limited in throughput. Therefore, it is of great importance to develop a method for detecting methylation sites in thousands of regions at the same time in a high throughput and with high sensitivity.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for detecting tumor ctDNA methylation with high flux and high sensitivity, which is applied to the next generation sequencing process, has the advantages of high flux, digital analysis and high sensitivity, and can be well applied to the determination of the ctDNA methylation in cfDNA.
In order to achieve the purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a method for detecting tumor ctDNA methylation in high throughput and high sensitivity comprises the following steps:
s1, screening an area with methylation state difference between a tumor and a normal tissue, and designing and preparing a biotin-modified DNA single-strand hybridization capture probe library aiming at CpG point positions of the screened area;
s2, adding common joints at two ends of the DNA of the blood sample to be detected, and adopting methylation insensitive endonuclease to recognize and enzyme-cut the unmethylated DNA double-chain molecule containing the enzyme cutting sites;
s3, carrying out PCR amplification on DNA by using a common primer, and hybridizing and enriching a target region by using the biotin-modified DNA single-stranded hybridization capture probe library prepared in S1;
s4, carrying out PCR amplification on the enriched product, preparing a sequencing library, and carrying out high-throughput sequencing to determine a DNA fragment sequence;
s5, comparing the sequencing depth of the site contrast without enzyme digestion or enzyme digestion with the sequencing depth of the target region after enzyme digestion to calculate the proportion of DNA molecules of the target region which are not subjected to enzyme digestion, thereby calculating the proportion of DNA methylation of the region.
In order to distinguish methylation state, the invention adopts methylation insensitive endonuclease capable of recognizing CpG sites, which can recognize and cut specific DNA sequence, usually 4-8 bases. Typically the cleavage site is in the recognition site, and there are recognition sites in the vicinity of the cleavage site. When the C at a CpG site is methylated, these methylation insensitive endonucleases are not able to cut recognition sites or cleavage sites. The methylated DNA molecules thus remain intact, while the unmethylated DNA is cut into 2 pieces. For example, the restriction enzyme HpaII recognizes CCGG, Hin6I recognizes GCGC, SmaI recognizes CCCGGG and generates CCCGGG cleavage sites; when the site C in CG is methylated in these recognition sequences, it cannot be cleaved, whereas when C in CG is not methylated, it can be cleaved. The digested DNA fragment can not be used as a template molecule to be amplified by PCR; whereas DNA that has not been cleaved by enzyme can be amplified by PCR. And then, comparing the sequencing depth of the sites which are not digested or are not digested with the sequencing depth of the target region after digestion to calculate the proportion of the DNA molecules of the target region which are not digested, thereby calculating the proportion of the DNA methylation of the region.
Since human genomic DNA is very large, it is costly if the entire genome is analyzed. This requires analysis of regions of the human genome where there is a difference in DNA methylation. To remove non-target regions, the selected regions were mostly significantly different in DNA methylation in tumor tissue and corresponding normal tissue. The invention screens restriction enzyme cutting site area which is not sensitive to methylation and a small part of area without cutting site (as internal reference) as target area, when preparing probe, it can adopt method of using terminal transferase and biotin modified nucleotide substrate after DNA synthesis single strand, such as biotin modified dNTP, NTP, ddNTP, NTP is ATP, CTP, GTP, TTP or UTP; the method of chip synthesis can also be used, and the length of the synthesized probe is generally 20 bases to 170 bases, and the optimal length is 70-120 bases. The invention synthesizes and prepares a probe library containing 624 biotin-modified DNA single-stranded hybrid capture probes aiming at a selected target region (see Table 2 in detail). Wherein, one part of the probe coverage area is provided with CCGG enzyme cutting sites, and one part of the probe coverage area is not provided with CCGG enzyme cutting sites as an internal reference and is not cut by selected restriction enzymes; therefore, the number of DNA fragments (peak height) of the genome does not change after the cleavage, while the DNA fragments in the region having the cleavage site change (decrease) after the cleavage, and the methylation at the CG site inhibits the cleavage. Thus, these regions with cleavage sites can be compared to the peak height relative to the internal reference to calculate the proportion of methylation.
The invention uses probe pool to do hybridization to enrich the DNA of the target area. The process comprises the steps of performing end repair, A addition, public junction connection and the like on genomic DNA (including ctDNA); and then carrying out enzyme digestion by methylation insensitive restriction enzyme, and carrying out PCR amplification on the product after enzyme digestion by using a common primer. The amplified PCR product was hybridized with biotin-modified probe. The hybridization conditions are generally 4-60 hours at 45-70 degrees, and the optimal hybridization is stable at 55-65 degrees. When hybridizing, adding a joint blocking sequence C0t-1DNA for blocking. The genomic DNA library for probe hybridization is hybridized by using 100ng-10000ng, generally 500ng-3000ng of DNA library; the amount of probe is 0.1ng-100ng, and the optimal amount is 2-20 ng. And capturing a hybrid compound generated by hybridization by using streptavidin magnetic beads, performing denaturation elution to obtain an enriched target DNA fragment, and performing PCR amplification by using a common primer to obtain a sequencing library. And identifying the quantity of the DNA fragments in the target region through high-throughput sequencing. Thus, the DNA fragments in the target area are enriched, the cost is saved, and the analysis sensitivity is improved.
In the present invention, the genomic DNA to be tested may be human genomic DNA, and may be blood-free DNA (cfDNA), paraffin-embedded tissue DNA (FFPE DNA), or blood-free circulating tumor tissue DNA (ctDNA). The size of the DNA fragment may be 0.01-0.25kb, 0.01-0.3kb, 0.01-0.4kb, 0.01-0.5kb, 0.02-0.25kb, 0.01-5kb, 0.1-1kb, 0.1-5kb, 0.2-0.4kb, 0.5-1kb, 1-2kb, 2-3kb, 3-4kb, 4-5kb, and when the genomic DNA to be tested is circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), the size of the fragment is generally about 170 bp.
Of course, the probe library disclosed by the invention, the detection kit prepared from the probe library provided by the invention, and the application of the probe library disclosed by the invention in the preparation of the detection kit for detecting the tumor ctDNA methylation with high flux and high sensitivity also belong to the protection contents of the invention.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. the method of the invention introduces 2 public sequencing joint sequences to the DNA of a blood sample to be detected, utilizes methylation insensitive endonuclease to carry out enzyme digestion, so that methylated DNA fragments are reserved, target fragments are enriched by probe hybridization, and then the methylation state of the target fragments is calculated by high-throughput sequencing analysis. First, the present invention uses methylated restriction enzymes to remove unmethylated DNA while retaining methylated DNA, allowing the methylated DNA molecules to be enriched, thereby increasing sensitivity. Secondly, the invention adopts an endonuclease method for enzyme digestion, the reaction condition is mild, large-scale DNA degradation cannot be caused, and the sensitivity is high. Thirdly, the invention enriches the target region DNA by adopting the probe target capture, thereby reducing the cost in a limited way. In addition, the method is equivalent to a methylation analysis technology based on PCR, hundreds of sites can be analyzed simultaneously, the flux is high, and the sensitivity is improved when a large number of sites are analyzed simultaneously. In addition, the invention adopts high-throughput sequencing technology to analyze the enriched fragments, and can digitally evaluate the DNA methylation state.
2. The method provided by the invention can be well applied to the determination of the methylation of the ctDNA in the cfDNA. Because the amount of cfDNA obtained from blood is small, the bisulfite treatment is easy to cause a great amount of DNA degradation, and the ctDNA is easy to fragment after the bisulfite treatment and can not be completely converted, the method of the invention avoids the problems of DNA great degradation, ctDNA fragmentation and incomplete conversion caused by the sulfite treatment, and therefore, the method of the invention can be well applied to the determination of the methylation of the ctDNA in the cfDNA.
