Definitions

  • the present application relates to the field of biotechnology, and relates to the field of genetic diagnosis, and in particular to a method for diagnosing cancer by biopsy cell samples.
  • Cancer is one of the major diseases that threaten human health. About 14 million cancer patients are added globally each year, 8.2 million patients die of cancer, and these two numbers are still growing year by year. Cancer has a gradual process of development. Early cancers have a low degree of malignancy. If you get timely surgery, you can usually achieve a high 5-year survival rate. Advanced cancer is highly malignant, prone to metastasis, and cannot be treated surgically. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are also difficult to obtain good results, so the 5-year survival rate is very low. The key to cancer treatment is early detection, but many cancers usually have no symptoms at an early stage, or the symptoms are atypical, which may lead to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
  • Imaging techniques such as ultrasound and CT can detect solid tumors at an early stage, but it is difficult to judge the benign and malignant tumors. Therefore, a suspicious site sampling is required for biopsy.
  • the commonly used biopsy sampling methods include fine needle aspiration, thick needle aspiration, endoscopic guided tissue biopsy, and brush cell examination of the bronchus, esophagus, oral cavity, and cervix.
  • Fine needle aspiration is a sampling method used to detect lumps and masses. It is directly pierced by a large mass that is accessible to the body surface, or is deep or small under the guidance of ultrasound and CT. The lump was taken for puncture sampling. Fine needle aspiration is widely used for tumor sampling in the thyroid, breast, lymph nodes, parotid gland, pancreas, liver, lung, prostate, ovary and other parts.
  • the pathological diagnosis of benign and malignant cells by traditional pathology is based on the relationship between cell size, morphology, invasiveness and peripheral cellular tissues. Because the sample volume obtained by fine needle aspiration is small, it is difficult to reflect the histological morphology, and the degree of cell atypia of early cancer is also low. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve high accuracy in puncture cytological pathological diagnosis, and it is difficult for pathologists. Experience dependence is very high, and some cancers cannot be diagnosed even in the middle and late stages.
  • the method of sampling the thick needle puncture and the fine needle puncture is similar.
  • the difference is that the thick needle is used for the thick needle, so that a larger tissue strip can be obtained, which can provide certain histological information.
  • the sampling amount is still small relative to the whole tumor, some histological features, especially the invasion relationship of cancer cells to surrounding tissues, are difficult to judge, so there are still some limitations.
  • Endoscopically guided biopsy is a method for sampling suspicious lesions under endoscopy guided by endoscopy, such as endoscopy, colonoscopy, cystoscopy, hysteroscopy, and otolaryngoscopy. It is commonly used in esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and bladder. Diagnosis of cancer, endometrial cancer, and nasopharyngeal cancer. Tissue biopsies have obtained a large sample size, but some cases of early cancer patients are still unable to be diagnosed due to low tissue atypia.
  • Brush cell examination usually uses a brush to take cells in the bronchi, mouth, esophagus, and cervix for examination.
  • the sample size obtained by this method is also small, and it is difficult to reflect the histological morphology, so the pathological diagnosis accuracy is also low.
  • Urine exfoliated cell detection is a routine test for the diagnosis of urinary cancer, but it is mainly based on the morphology of the cells. The accuracy is low, and it is still necessary to rely on cystoscopy and biopsy for diagnosis, which brings great pain to patients.
  • BRAF for papillary thyroid carcinoma
  • BRAC for breast cancer
  • CEA for lung cancer
  • PSA for prostate cancer
  • BRAF mutations can only be used for the detection of papillary thyroid carcinoma, and it is impossible to detect follicular tumors
  • PSA has high sensitivity but low specificity, resulting in higher False positive.
  • detection techniques for detecting tumor antigens and in situ hybridization in urine but the sensitivity and specificity are not ideal.
  • Genomic imprinting is a way of gene regulation in epigenetics. It is characterized by methylation of alleles from a particular parent, such that one gene has only one allele and the other is in a state of gene silencing. This type of gene is called a blot (remember) gene. Deletion of the blot is an epigenetic change in which the allelic gene of the imprinted gene results in a silenced allele being activated and beginning to express the gene.
  • the methylation status of the imprinted gene can be used as a pathological marker to analyze the abnormal state of the cell by a specific molecular detection technique.
  • the in situ detection of the imprinted gene is sensitive and effective in complementing the morphological pathology, making the morphological pathological uncertainty region no longer exist.
  • imprinted gene detection does not require tissue morphology and uses a small sample size. It is a cancer detection method that is very suitable for biopsy samples.
  • Detection of cancers such as central nervous system tumors, parotid malignant tumors, malignant lymphomas, and leukemias can provide more accurate pre-diagnosis and diagnostic information, completely avoiding problems that cannot be diagnosed due to insufficient cell or tissue abnormalities.
  • Increasing the early diagnosis rate of cancer is of great significance for improving the quality of life of patients and prolonging their survival.
  • the present application provides a method for diagnosing cancer by biopsy cell samples, which can be judged by visually observing changes in the imprinted (spot) genes of cancer at the early stage of biopsy cell level. The degree of benign and malignant and malignant cancer.

Description

[根据细则37.2由ISA制定的发明名称] 通过活检细胞样本诊断癌症的方法 技术领域
本申请涉及生物技术领域,涉及基因诊断领域,具体涉及一种通过活检细胞样本诊断癌症的方法。
背景技术
癌症是威胁人类健康的主要疾病之一,每年全球新增约1400万癌症患者,820万患者死于癌症,并且这两个数字还在逐年增长。癌症有一个逐渐发展的过程,早期癌症的恶性程度较低,如果能够得到及时的手术治疗,通常能够达到较高的5年生存率。而晚期癌症恶性程度较高,容易发生转移,无法进行手术治疗,放疗和化疗也难以得到较好的疗效,因此5年生存率非常低。癌症治疗的关键在于早期发现,但是很多癌症在早期通常没有任何症状,或者症状不典型,容易造成漏诊和误诊。超声和CT等影像学技术能够在较早期发现实体肿瘤,但难以对肿瘤的良恶性进行判断,因此需要对可疑部位取样进行活检。目前常用的活检取样方式主要有细针穿刺,粗针穿刺,内镜引导下的组织活检,以及支气管、食道、口腔、子宫颈等部位的刷细胞检查。
细针穿刺(FNA)是一种用于检测硬块和肿块的取样方法,通过空心针对体表可触及的较大肿块进行直接穿刺,或者在超声和CT的引导下对位置较深或体积较小的肿块进行穿刺取样。细针穿刺广泛应用于甲状腺、乳腺、淋巴结、腮腺、胰腺、肝脏、肺、前列腺、卵巢等部位的肿瘤取样。传统病理学对细胞的良恶性诊断是基于细胞的大小,形态,侵润性和周边细胞组织的关系来作出判断的。由于细针穿刺所获得的样本量较少,难以反映组织学形态,同时早期癌症的细胞异型性程度也较低,因此穿刺细胞学病理诊断通常难以达到较高的准确率,而且对病理医生的经验依赖性非常高,有些癌症甚至到中晚期都无法确诊。
粗针穿刺与细针穿刺的取样方法较为类似,区别在于粗针穿刺使用较粗的针,因此可以获得较大的组织条,可以提供一定的组织学信息。但是由于取样量相对于整个肿瘤来说仍然很小,一些组织学特征,尤其是癌细胞对周围组织的侵犯关系较难判断,因此仍有一定的局限性。
内镜引导下的组织活检是在胃镜、肠镜、膀胱镜、宫腔镜、耳鼻咽喉镜等内镜引导下对可疑病变组织进行取样的方法,常用于食道癌、胃癌、结直肠癌、膀胱癌、子宫内膜癌、鼻咽癌的诊断。组织活检获得的样本量较多,但仍有一部分早期癌症患者的病例由于组织异型性较低而无法明确诊断。
刷细胞检查通常使用毛刷在支气管、口腔、食道、子宫颈获取细胞进行检查。使用这种方法获取的样本量也较少,难以反映组织学形态,因此病理学诊断准确率也较低。尿液脱落细胞检测是诊断泌尿系统癌症的常规检查项目,但主要是根据细胞的形态来进行判断,准确率较低,仍然要依靠膀胱镜和活检进行确诊,给患者带来较大的痛苦。
为了避免传统病理学在对早期癌症诊断中的局限性,人们开发了多种在细胞分子水平检测肿瘤的生物标志物,如用于甲状腺乳头状癌的BRAF,用于乳腺癌的BRAC,用于肺癌的CEA,用于前列腺癌的PSA等。但是目前已有的肿瘤标志物还存在一些不足,如BRAF的突变仅能用于甲状腺乳头状癌的检测,无法检测滤泡性肿瘤;PSA的灵敏度很高,但是特异性较低,造成较高的假阳性。目前也有一些在尿液中进行肿瘤抗原检测和原位杂交的检测技术,但是灵敏度和特异性都不太理想。
从癌症的发展过程分析,分子层面的改变(表观遗传学和基因学)远早于细胞形态和组织结构的变异,所以分子生物学检测对癌症早期的检测更敏感。基因组印记是表观遗传学中基因调控的一种方式。其特点是,通过甲基化来自特定亲代的等位基因,使某个基因只有一个等位基因表达,而另一个则陷入基因沉默状态。该种类的基因,被称为印迹(记)基因。印迹缺失是印迹基因去甲基化导致沉默状态的等位基因被激活并且开始基因表达的一种表观遗传改变。大量研究表明,该现象(印迹缺失)普遍存在于各类癌症并且发生时间早于细胞和组织形态改变。与此同时,在健康细胞中,印迹缺失比例极低,与癌细胞成鲜明对比。所以,印迹基因的甲基化状态可以作为病理标记,通过特定分子检测技术,对细胞异常状态进行分析。如图1所示,印迹基因原位检测敏感而有效地补足了形态病理的不足,使得形态病理的不确定区不再存在。
基于以上原因,印迹基因检测对组织形态没有要求,使用的样本量也较少,是一种非常适用于活检 样本的癌症检测方法。通过印迹基因检测技术对甲状腺癌、乳腺癌、胰腺癌、肺癌、肝癌、结直肠癌、膀胱癌、前列腺癌、胃癌、食道癌、鼻咽癌、口腔癌、卵巢癌、子宫内膜、宫颈癌、中枢神经系统肿瘤、腮腺恶性肿瘤、恶性淋巴瘤、白血病等癌症进行检测,可以提供更精确的预诊和诊断信息,彻底避免由于细胞或组织异型性不够明显而造成无法诊断的问题,极大提高癌症的早期诊断率,对提高患者生活质量、延长生存期具有重要的意义。

具体实施方式
为更进一步阐述本申请所采取的技术手段及其效果,以下结合附图并通过具体实施方式来进一步说明本申请的技术方案,但本申请并非局限在实施例范围内。
实施例1 穿刺细胞的印记基因分析
所述的印记基因的检测方法,包括如下步骤:
(1)用活检穿刺针获取穿刺细胞,经10%中性福尔马林固定,以防RNA降解,固定时间为24小时,制作细胞压片;
(2)按照RNASCope的样品处理方法封闭样本中内源性过氧化物酶活性,增强通透性并暴露出RNA分子;
(3)设计探针:根据印记基因序列设计特异性引物;
所述设计探针是根据印记基因Z1(Gnas)、Z2(Igf2)、Z3(Peg10)、Z4(Igf2r)、Z5(Mest)、Z6(Plagl1)、Z7(Cdkn1c)、Z8(Dcn)、Z9(Dlk1)、Z10(Gatm)、Z11(Grb10)、Z12(Peg3)、Z13(Sgce)、Z14(Slc38a4)、Z15(Diras3)和Z16(Snrpn/Snurf)进行设计的,具体在每个基因的内旋子内选择一段序列作为探针,具体的探针由Advanced Cell Diagnostics公司设计。
(4)将步骤(3)的探针与待测样本通过试剂盒进行RNASCope原位杂交;
(5)信号扩增和苏木精染色,用显微镜成像分析印记基因的表达情况;
所述模型中的计算印记基因表达量、印记基因缺失表达量和印记基因拷贝数异常表达量的公式如下:
总表达量=(b+c+d)/(a+b+c+d)×100%;
正常印记基因表达量=b/(b+c+d)×100%;
印记基因缺失基因表达量(LOI)=c/(b+c+d)×100%;
印记基因拷贝数异常的基因表达量(CNV)=d/(b+c+d)×100%;
其中,a、b、c、d如图2所示,所述a为将细胞进行苏木素染色后,细胞核内不存在标记,印记基因没有表达的细胞核;所述b为将细胞进行苏木素染色后,细胞核内存在一个棕色标记,印记基因存在的细胞核;所述c为将细胞进行苏木素染色后,细胞核内存在两个棕色标记,印记基因缺失的细胞核;所述d为将细胞进行苏木素染色后,细胞核内存在两个以上棕色标记,印记基因拷贝数异常的细胞核。
