Description

Kit for cervical high-grade lesions and early detection of cervical cancer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nucleic acid in-vitro diagnosis, and particularly relates to a kit for applying a specific gene methylation marker to cervical high-level lesions and early detection of cervical cancer.
Background
Worldwide, there are nearly 50 thousands of new cases of cervical cancer annually, which has become the third most common malignancy after breast and colon cancer in women. Cervical cancer is caused by HPV (Human Papilloma Virus), and can be effectively prevented by detecting HPV. Many studies have shown that HPV detection is more objective, easier to operate and has higher sensitivity than cytological examination, and thus can be used for cervical cancer primary screening. HPV infection is however common, and in most cases the infected cells do not progress to cancer; thus resulting in over-treatment of false positive patients and wasting medical resources. Along with the wide development of HPV detection projects in China, the requirements of high-specificity detection methods for diversion of positive population after HPV detection primary screening are also increasing. At present, cytological examination is the most dominant diversion method for HPV infection positive population, but cytological detection technology is greatly influenced by subjective factors and the level of doctors, and meanwhile, the consistency between cytology and pathology is greatly different due to the degree of precancerous lesions. Therefore, an objective and high-specificity detection method is found for subsequent management of HPV positive results, which is particularly important for reducing colposcopic referral and saving sanitary and medical resources.
DNA methylation is a common process in epigenetic science, and alterations in host cell gene methylation may affect cell life cycle, contributing to the development and progression of cancer. The hypermethylation of promoters at different stages can cause inactivation of different cancer suppressor genes, and the specific change modes of the promoters are provided at each stage of the occurrence and development of a plurality of tumors (including cervical cancer). The additive effect of epigenetic changes is of great importance in the progression of the cervix from normal tissue-precancerous lesions-cervical cancer. Research shows that there is strong correlation between host cervical epithelial gene methylation and invasive cervical cancer, and has great potential significance in developing new diagnosis technology and therapeutic intervention method.
The method has a higher Positive Predictive Value (PPV) for methylation detection of cervical endothelial cells, and compared with the traditional HPV detection method, the method has a higher Negative Predictive Value (NPV), but the Positive Predictive Value (PPV) is too low, so that people with high risk of cervical cancer can be screened out more accurately to intervene. Compared with cytologic examination such as TCT (Thinprep Cytologic Test) and HPV detection of double-screen positive patients, gene methylation detection can more accurately shunt out high-risk and low-risk cervical cancer people. The pre-cancerous stage of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, CIN) still has a high proportion of crowd prognosis, and it is critical to accurately diagnose whether cervical cancer is progressed, and gene methylation detection can be used for monitoring CIN lesions, preventing over-treatment of CIN1/CIN2/CIN3, and providing effective decision basis for selecting treatment time.
In the current diagnosis and treatment process of cervical cancer, CIN2/CIN3 and higher high-grade precancerous lesions are distinguished by histology, the judgment consistency is only 0.36-0.69 due to sampling sites, pathologists and the like, and the gene methylation detection can provide a more objective detection result for a clinician to refer to under the clinical scene. In addition, for patients after cervical conization and circular cutting operations, HPV/TCT and other traditional methodologies cannot judge the risk of further developing cervical cancer of the patients, and the gene methylation detection effectively fills the clinical blank of the part.

The description of specific exemplary embodiments of the invention have been presented for purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed, and obviously many modifications and variations are possible in light of the teaching of the present specification. The exemplary embodiments were chosen and described in order to explain the specific principles of the invention and its practical application to thereby enable one skilled in the art to make and utilize the invention in various exemplary embodiments and with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.
Example 1: cervical cancer gene methylation detection site exploration
1. Cervical tissue and cervical cell brush DNA extraction
DNA from both cervical tissue and cervical cell brush was extracted using commercial kits, such as QIAamp DNA FFPE Tissue Kit from Qiagen.
2. DNA quantification
The number of extracted molecules of DNA is ensured in the extraction process for subsequent experiments. dsDNA was quantified using commercial kits and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) concentrations were detected specifically using fluorescent dye technology. For example, invitrogen's Qubit TM dsDNA HS Assay Kit。
3. Methylation-modified transformation of DNA
The extracted DNA was transformed using a commercial kit. After bisulfite treatment, the C base on the CpG island which is methylated in the DNA still keeps the C base, and the C base on the CpG island which is not methylated is changed into the U base, so that the sequence difference between the methylated DNA and the unmethylated DNA is caused, and the methylated DNA can be detected for the subsequent nucleic acid detection method.
The DNA is completely transformed within 3 hours, and the transformed DNA liquid can be immediately used or put into a temperature of minus 20 ℃ for standby, and can be used as a template for the subsequent fluorescent quantitative qPCR reaction. Such as EZ DNA Methylation-Gold Kit (TM) from Zymo company.
4. Fluorescent quantitative detection
The obtained DNA solution was used as a template, and β -actin was used as an internal gene, and the correlation with cervical cancer was examined using a kit containing FAM19A4, TERT, FANCI, GATA3, CDKN2A, JAM, PAX1, and SOX1 gene methylation primer probes, respectively, to examine human cervical exfoliated cell health samples, CINI-III samples, and squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma (CC) samples. Wherein the components of the qPCR reaction system are shown in Table 1, the qPCR reaction conditions are shown in Table 2, and the nucleic acid sequences of the primers and probes are shown in Table 3. The detection results are shown in tables 4-6, wherein table 4 is delta Ct value obtained by the marker gene Ct-internal reference gene Ct, table 5 is average value calculated by corresponding 3 sample delta Ct values, and table 6 is average value difference value compared with the healthy group and the disease group.
Table 1: qPCR reaction system (20. Mu.L/human)
Table 2: qPCR reaction conditions
Table 3: nucleic acid sequences of primers and probes
Table 4: delta Ct value
Table 5: TABLE 4 sample means
Table 6: TABLE 4 healthy group mean and disease group mean difference
Analysis of results: as can be seen from the experimental results in tables 5 and 6, from health to cancer, the detection results ΔCt of FAM19A4, PAX1 and SOX1 become gradually smaller, and the gene methylation has a positive correlation trend with cervical cancer diseases.
Based on the primary screening result, the inventor researches and discovers that under the nucleic acid combination and detection system of the invention, the three gene methylation combinations have the best detection effect, and the detection result has higher correlation with CINI, CINI-III and cervical carcinoma by adopting a kit containing three gene methylation primer probes of FAM19A4, PAX1 and SOX 1. Other cancer-related methylation genes, such as JAM3, have low correlation with detection results under the detection system of the application, and after the detection results are combined with the FAM19A4, PAX1 or SOX1 methylation gene primers, the interaction among primer probes of different genes can generate serious interference in a multiplex PCR reaction, so that non-specific amplification is generated, false positive of the detection results is caused, and the accuracy of the detection effect is affected.
Example 2: cervical cancer detection using the kit of the invention
1. Cervical tissue and cervical cell brush DNA extraction
DNA from both cervical tissue and cervical cell brush was extracted using commercial kits, such as QIAamp DNA FFPE Tissue Kit from Qiagen.
2. DNA quantification
The number of extracted molecules of DNA is ensured in the extraction process for subsequent experiments. dsDNA was quantified using commercial kits and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) concentrations were detected specifically using fluorescent dye technology. For example, invitrogen's Qubit TM dsDNA HS Assay Kit。
3. Methylation-modified transformation of DNA
The extracted DNA was transformed using a commercial kit. After bisulfite treatment, the C base on the CpG island which is methylated in the DNA still keeps the C base, and the C base on the CpG island which is not methylated is changed into the U base, so that the sequence difference between the methylated DNA and the unmethylated DNA is caused, and the methylated DNA can be detected for the subsequent nucleic acid detection method.
The GCDNA-rich DNA is completely transformed within 3 hours, and the converted DNA liquid can be immediately used or put into a temperature of minus 20 ℃ for standby use as a template for the subsequent fluorescent quantitative qPCR reaction. Such as EZ DNA Methylation-Gold Kit (TM) from Zymo company.
4. Fluorescent quantitative detection
Taking the DNA solution obtained by transformation as a template and beta-actin as an internal reference gene; the nucleic acid combinations are detected for PCR reactions. The negative reference substance is water, and the positive reference substance is plasmid DNA containing PAX1, SOX1, FAM19A4 and internal reference gene sequences.

The reagent kit reaction system for methylation detection through selecting a clinical sample with definite pathological information determines a positive judgment value through an ROC curve (shown in figure 1), wherein the reagent kit reaction system comprises a human cervical exfoliated cell cervical cancer (adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma and the like) sample, a low-level cervical lesion sample (CIN 1), cervical high-level lesion samples (CIN 2 and CIN 3) and an inflammation sample, namely methylation is generated on at least one gene of the PAX1, SOX1 and FAM19A4 genes detected, namely the occurrence of cervical cancer is a high risk. The specific result interpretation method is as follows:
a. the internal standard channel is satisfied that the S-type amplification curve exists, the Ct value is less than or equal to 33, the PAX1, SOX1 and FAM19A4 gene channels are free of the S-type amplification curve or the delta Ct value of the PAX1 gene is more than 7.67, the delta Ct value of the SOX1 gene is more than 7.20, and the delta Ct value of the FAM19A4 gene is more than 7.26, and the judgment result is negative;
b. the internal standard channel is satisfied with an S-type amplification curve, the Ct value is less than or equal to 33, the delta Ct value of the PAX1 gene is less than or equal to 7.67, or the delta Ct value of the SOX1 gene is less than or equal to 7.20, or the delta Ct value of the FAM19A4 gene is less than or equal to 7.26, and at least one channel detection of the three genes satisfies the corresponding delta Ct value requirement, and the result is judged to be positive;
c. if the internal standard channel has no S-type amplification curve or Ct value is more than 33, the judging result is invalid, and the sample is recommended to be extracted again for detection.
A total of 206 samples (Table 10) were tested using the above-described kit reaction system, including 34 cervical cancer samples, 46 low-grade intraepithelial lesions (CIN 1) samples, 58 high-grade intraepithelial lesions (CINII-III) samples, 68 chronic inflammatory samples, and the test results are shown in Table 9. Compared with clinical pathology results, the area of the combined ROC curve of the three genes obtained by using the methylation detection kit is 0.901 (shown in figure 1), the overall specificity is 89.47%, and the overall sensitivity is 90.22%. Wherein, the detection rates of CINII-III group and squamous carcinoma group are 84.48% and 100% respectively; the detection rates for CINI group and chronic inflammation group were 86.96% and 91.18%.
From the results, in view of clinical CINII and above, the kit can better identify cervical high-level lesions and cervical cancer by taking the cervical high-level lesions as colposcopic referral basis, realize shunting with low-level lesions and inflammation, and reduce unnecessary colposcopic referral of patients to a certain extent.
