Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a primer set for obtaining cfDNA standard products, PCR amplification positive standard products, and preparation methods, kits and applications thereof.
  • cfDNA cell-free DNA, cfDNA
  • Mandel and Metais in 1948. Tan and his colleagues first linked cfDNA to disease in 1966, because they observed high concentrations of cfDNA in the plasma of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Subsequent studies also made people realize that changes in the concentration of cfDNA in plasma are closely related to the individual's physiological state and clinical manifestations. For example, acute trauma, cerebral infarction, exercise, organ transplantation, infection, etc. can all cause the concentration of cfDNA in plasma to rise. The use of cfDNA as a potential cancer biomarker began in 1977.
  • Leon and his colleagues used radioimmunochemical methods to prove that the cfDNA content detected in the serum of cancer patients was significantly higher than that of healthy people. However, with the condition of cancer patients The improvement of the patient’s body cfDNA content will also be accompanied by a decline. Therefore, a technology that can quickly detect the content of cfDNA in plasma may provide a relatively convenient auxiliary dynamic monitoring index for evaluating individual health.
  • cfDNA mainly exists in double-stranded form in the blood. It is generally believed that the main source of cfDNA is released from apoptotic or necrotic cells. Its most concentrated fragment is about 166bp in length. cfDNA integrity (cfDNA integrity) measures the ratio of long fragments to short fragments (copy number) in the obtained cfDNA. Normally, apoptosis is the main form of normal cell death, releasing DNA fragments of about 200 bp. The death of tumor cells will increase the proportion of necrotic cells, and the size of DNA fragments released by necrotic cells is different from the size of apoptotic fragments.
  • the integrity of cfDNA in the blood will also change. Therefore, the integrity of cfDNA may also become a marker that can dynamically monitor the occurrence and changes of tumors and has auxiliary guiding significance.
  • the quantitative detection methods for measuring the concentration of cfDNA in plasma are roughly divided into two categories: one is to extract cfDNA from the plasma using a kit, and the extracted product can be directly used for quantitative detection using Qubit, qPCR or digital PCR; the other The class is to directly use plasma samples for quantitative detection, which can minimize the loss or contamination of the product during the extraction process, and retain the most primitive information of cfDNA in the plasma, and the demand for plasma is small, and the operation time is low. The cost is also relatively low.
  • qPCR primers For the second type of solution, usually targeting specific conserved regions (Direct Quantification of Cell-Free, Circulating DNA from Unpurified Plasma, Sarah Breitbach, etc., PLos One), two pairs of qPCR primers that are fully complementary to the conserved regions are designed.
  • the product fragments amplified by the qPCR primers are of different lengths, and the long and short fragments (222bp, 90bp) of the conserved region in the plasma sample cfDNA can be amplified separately, and then the amount of cfDNA in the plasma sample (short fragment indicator) and integrity can be indicated (Long fragment/short fragment), the long fragment includes short fragments.
  • the PCR products were amplified with long/short fragment qPCR primers, and added to animal plasma (without primer amplification template) according to preset different concentrations, as long/short fragment cfDNA standard products of different concentrations ( Generally 6 concentration gradients).
  • the corresponding qPCR primers are used to amplify cfDNA standards with different lengths and concentrations to obtain cfDNA amplification standard curves of different fragment lengths.
  • the qPCR test results are compared to obtain the cfDNA content and integrity information of the plasma sample to be tested.
  • the first type of method mentioned above is relatively mature and is currently the most widely used cfDNA quantitative detection method, but its shortcomings are also obvious: there is a large demand for plasma (generally at least 0.5ml of plasma), and cfDNA may be lost during the extraction process. Or contamination, which cannot reflect the truest condition of the cfDNA concentration and integrity in the plasma. In addition, the experimental time cost and reagent cost are relatively high.
  • the main problems of the second type of methods are as follows: 1) When cfDNA quantitative detection is limited to the use of animal plasma in standard products, there may be component differences with human plasma, which will affect the accuracy of the detection results; 2) Simultaneous detection of cfDNA concentration and A set of standard products are required for completeness.
  • Treating the original plasma with DNAase can eliminate cfDNA in the original plasma; however, this method will significantly increase the preparation steps of plasma standards, reduce efficiency, and increase costs. It also needs to be added when DNAase is added. Corresponding buffer to make DNAase active to remove cfDNA in the original plasma, which will increase the difference between the composition of the obtained plasma standard and the plasma sample to be tested, thereby making the plasma standard and the plasma sample to be tested When performing qPCR direct amplification, the amplification efficiency is different, and because the newly added buffer may also affect the measurement of the absorbance value of the qPCR amplification product, the plasma standard obtained by this method can also be obtained during use.

Description

获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、PCR扩增阳性标准品及其制备方法、试剂盒及应用 技术领域
本发明涉及生物技术领域，具体而言，涉及一种获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、PCR扩增阳性标准品及其制备方法、试剂盒及应用。
背景技术
cfDNA(cell-free DNA,cfDNA)于1948年被Mandel和Metais在血浆中发现。1966年Tan和他的同事首次将cfDNA和疾病联系在一起，因为他们在系统性红斑狼疮(systemic lupus erythematosus，SLE)的病人血浆中观察到高浓度的cfDNA。之后的研究也让人们意识到血浆中cfDNA的浓度变化与个体生理状态及其临床表现息息相关，例如急性创伤，脑梗塞，运动，器官移植，感染等都能够引起cfDNA在血浆中的浓度上升。利用cfDNA作为一个潜在的癌症生物标记物始于1977年，Leon与其同事利用放射免疫化学的方法证明在癌症患者血清中检测出的cfDNA含量会比健康人的明显偏高，但随着肿瘤患者病情的好转，患者体内cfDNA的含量也会伴随着下降。因此，一种能够快速检测出血浆中cfDNA含量的技术将有可能为评判个体健康提供一种获取相对便捷的辅助性动态监控指标。
cfDNA在血液中主要是以双链形式存在的，通常人们认为cfDNA的主要来源是由凋亡或坏死的细胞释放而出，它最集中的片段长度约166bp。cfDNA完整性(cfDNA integrity)测量的是所获取的cfDNA中长片段与短片段(拷贝数)的比例。通常正常细胞死亡形式以细胞凋亡为主，释放出200bp左右的DNA片段。而肿瘤细胞的死亡会增加坏死细胞的比例，坏死细胞释放出的DNA片段大小与细胞凋亡的片段大小存在差异。所以当机体有肿瘤发生或肿瘤病情变化时，血液中cfDNA的完整性也将发生改变。所以，cfDNA完整性也可能成为一种能够动态监测肿瘤发生与变化的，具有辅助指导意义的标记物。
目前，测量血浆中cfDNA浓度的定量检测方法大致分为两类：一类是利用试剂盒先提取出血浆中的cfDNA，提取后的产物可直接使用Qubit，qPCR或者digital PCR做定量检测；另一类是直接利用血浆样本进行定量检测，这样可以最大限度的避免在提取过程中对产物造成的损失或污染，最大程度的保留血浆内cfDNA的最原始信息，且对血浆需求量少，操作时间和成本也都相对较低。针对第二类方案，通常是针对特定的保守区域(Direct Quantification of Cell-Free,Circulating DNA from Unpurified Plasma，Sarah Breitbach等，PLos One)，设计两对与保守区域完全互补配对的qPCR引物，该两对qPCR引物扩增的产物片段长度不同，可分别扩增出血浆样品cfDNA中的保守区域的长、短片段(222bp、90bp)，进而指示血浆样品中cfDNA的量(短片段指示)和完整性(长片段/短片段)，该长片段包括短片段。同时，另外用长/短片段qPCR引物扩增获得PCR产物，并按照预设的不同浓度分别加入至动物血浆(不含有引物扩增模板)中，作为不同浓度的长/短片段cfDNA标准品(一般为6个浓度梯度)。在对待测血浆样品进行qPCR检测时，利用相应的qPCR引物对不同长度浓度的cfDNA标准品进行扩增，从而获得不同片段长度的cfDNA扩增标准曲线，进而通过该标准曲线和待测血浆样品的qPCR检测结果进行比对，从而获得待测血浆样品cfDNA的含量和完整性信息。
上述的第一类方法比较成熟，是目前运用最广泛的cfDNA定量检测方法，但是其缺点也很明显：对血浆需求量较大(一般情况至少0.5ml血浆)，提取过程中可能伴随cfDNA的损失或污染，不能反映血浆内cfDNA浓度及完整性的最真实状况，此外实验时间成本和试剂成本相对较高。第二类方法现存的主要问题有以下几点：1)cfDNA定量检测时限于标准品中使用动物血浆，可能与人源血浆有成分差异，影响检测结果的准确性；2)同时检测cfDNA浓度和完整性时需各使用一套标准品，时间和试剂成本较高，单次检测的样本通量较低；3)cfDNA定量的标准品制备过程繁琐、稳定性较差；4)批间实验缺少有效的阳参质控。
现有技术中，为了解决上述问题，一般采用下述2种方法：
1)用DNAase处理原样血浆，即可消除原样血浆中的cfDNA；但是，这种方法除了会明 显增加血浆标准品的制备步骤，降低效率，增加成本外，还因为加入DNAase处理时，还需加入相应的缓冲液，以使DNAase发挥活性除去原样血浆中的cfDNA，这会使获得的血浆标准品与待测血浆样品的组成之间差异度加大，进而使得血浆标准品和待测血浆样品在进行qPCR直扩时，扩增效率存在差异，而且因为新加入的缓冲液还可能影响qPCR扩增产物吸光值的测量，所以，通过这种方法获得的血浆标准品，在使用时，同样存在获得的标准曲线不准确的问题。
2)直接使用原样血浆，使得标准品与待测血浆样品在进行qPCR直扩时，将因血浆环境引起的差异降到最低。但是，利用这种血浆标准品进行cfDNA检测时，制备血浆标准品的原样血浆中cfDNA的浓度未知，这些浓度未知的cfDNA片段在qPCR时，同样会被引物扩增出PCR产物，从而使得基于这种标准品扩增获得的标准曲线不准确，相应的使基于该标准曲线获得的待测血浆样品的cfDNA浓度偏低。

现有技术中，血浆阳性标准品一般是动物血浆(如小鼠血浆)中加入确定浓度核酸片段(与cfDNA浓度检测时扩增的片段相同)制备得到。之所以用其他物种来源的血浆(例如小鼠血浆)代替原来的样本同类型的血浆，是因为替代血浆中的DNA在qPCR时不能被引物扩增出产物，即可消除原来的样本同类型的血浆中的cfDNA对血浆标准品、标准曲线制作的影响。但是，不同物种来源的血浆成分差异明显，因此，直接以血浆标准品或待测血浆样品为模板进行qPCR扩增时，扩增效率也会存在差异，而且血浆成分的差异同样会影响qPCR扩增产物吸光值的测量，所以，通过这种方法获得的血浆阳性标准品，在使用时，会存在获得的标准曲线不准确的问题。由于PCR扩增阳性标准品包括第一外源序列和第二外源序列，在后续定量或定性检测扩增时，引物与第一外源序列和第二外源序列配对，这样本发明的血浆阳性标准品血浆可以为样本同类型的血浆，从而避免了血浆成分的差异造成影响qPCR扩增产物吸光值的测量带来的不准确问题。同时，也避免了样本同类型的血浆中的cfDNA对标准曲线制作的影响。
本发明的用于扩增cfDNA标准品的引物组，可适用于不同样本类型，并可快速、低成本的获得相应的cfDNA标准品，即本发明的PCR扩增阳性标准品；在进行cfDNA检测时，可仅使用本发明的PCR扩增阳性标准品这1个标准品，简化了实验方案，降低了检测成本。与现有技术中通过使用与待检测cfDNA样本不同物种的血浆的方案相比，避免了因为不同物种血浆成分不同而引起的扩增效率不一致而导致的标准曲线不准确，或因为不同物种血浆成分不同造成qPCR仪测得的荧光信号强度的差异进而导致检测结果不准确的问题，提高了检测结果的准确性；与现有技术中通过使用与待检测cfDNA样本相同物种的血浆的方案相比，避免了因为血浆阳性标准品中血浆自身含有的标准品而导致的标准曲线不准确，进而导致检测结果不准确的问题，提高了检测结果的准确性，同时还降低了血浆阳性标准品中血浆来源的限制，提高了方法的适用性。
第一靶序列是人类基因组中的保守核苷酸序列即可，单拷贝、多拷贝基因都是可行的。但是，对于单拷贝基因来讲，在扩增时可以适当的增加循环数来获得更多的拷贝，当然，这可能存在非特异性扩增，从而使准确性相对降低，因此，以单拷贝基因作为扩增对象，样本进一步优选的可以是从血浆样本中提取出的cfDNA，而不是血浆样本本身。在本申请中，优选的，第一靶序列在人类的染色体上具有多个拷贝，这样可以较为容易的获得准确性较高的PCR扩增阳性标准品。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，还提供了一种用于血浆中cfDNA检测的阳性质控品。该阳性质控品包括上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、第二靶序列和标准血浆；第二靶序列为人类的基因组中具有固定长度的核苷酸序列；第二靶序列的序列长度大于第一靶序列的序列长度。
优选的，第二靶序列为人类的基因组中的保守核苷酸序列；优选的，标准血浆为cfDNA含量低于预设阈值的人类血浆；优选的，第二靶序列包括第一靶序列；优选的，预设阈值为30ng/mL、20ng/mL、15ng/mL、10ng/mL或5ng/mL；优选的，第一靶序列的长度在50bp～150bp之间，更优选在60bp～120bp之间，第二靶序列的长度在150bp～300bp之间，更优选在180bp～300bp之间；优选的，阳性质控品中PCR扩增阳性标准品、第二靶序列的拷贝数比值为(1～2):(1～2)，更优选的，阳性质控品中PCR扩增阳性标准品、第二靶序列的拷贝数比值为1:1。
现有技术中，cfDNA浓度的定量检测时，一块96孔板，如仅检测血浆样品的cfDNA浓度，则cfDNA标准品(短片段标准品+动物血浆)6个浓度，每个浓度3个复孔(用于标准曲线的制作，定量用)，阴性对照(与标准品相同的血浆，未添加标准片段)2～3个孔，需用去20个孔，剩76个孔进行样品检测，每个样品3个复孔，约可检测25个样品/板。若同时检测血浆样品的cfDNA浓度和完整性，则需两个cfDNA标准品(短/长片段标准品+动物血浆)6个浓度，每个浓度3个复孔(用于标准曲线的制作，定量用)，阴性对照(与标准品相同的血浆，未添加标准片段)4～6个孔，需用去40个孔，剩余56孔；每个血浆样品两对引物分别3 个复孔(共计6个孔)，即9个样品/板，检测通量低，需要两个标准品，做两个标准曲线。
而采用本发明的技术方案，当第二靶序列包括第一靶序列时，可以只需要一个标准品，制作一个标准曲线，从而降低了工作量，提高了检测效率，且能提高每次qPCR检测cfDNA样品的通量。
为了方便应用，根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了一种用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的试剂盒。该试剂盒包括第一引物组、和/或上述PCR扩增阳性标准品，第一引物组为上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组。
优选的，试剂盒还包括第四引物组；第四引物组包括第四上游引物和第四下游引物；第四上游引物包括第一外源序列，第四下游引物包括第二外源序列。
更优选的，第四上游引物为第一外源序列，第四下游引物为第二外源序列。
优选的，试剂盒还包括上述用于血浆中cfDNA检测的阳性质控品。
优选的，试剂盒还包括第二引物组和第三引物组；第二引物组包括：第二上游引物和第二下游引物；第二上游引物包括第一锚定序列，第二下游引物包括第二锚定序列；第三引物组包括：第三上游引物和第三下游引物；第三上游引物包括第三锚定序列，第三下游引物包括第四锚定序列；第三锚定序列和第四锚定序列均为人类的同一染色体上的保守核苷酸序列，且它们的组合能够用于扩增第二靶序列；第二靶序列的序列长度大于第一靶序列的序列长度；优选的，第二上游引物为第一锚定序列，第二下游引物为第二锚定序列；优选的，第三上游引物为第三锚定序列，第三下游引物为第四锚定序列。
通过上述描述可知，实际上，第一引物组是用于扩增获得PCR扩增阳性标准品的；第二引物组是用于扩增短片段实现cfDNA定量的；第三引物组是用于扩增长片段，与第二引物组结果配合实现cfDNA完整性检测的；第四引物组是用于扩增不同浓度的PCR扩增阳性标准品，进而获得标准品曲线的。所以，应用该试剂盒可以高效准确的对检测血浆中cfDNA的浓度和完整性进行检测。
优选的，第二靶序列包括第一靶序列，这样可以进一步简化检测步骤，提高检测效率。当然，第二靶序列可以不包括第一靶序列，只要比第一靶序列长即可。
当第二靶序列包括第一靶序列时，可以选用荧光染料法进行检测。
当第二靶序列不包括第一靶序列时，可以选用荧光染料法、探针法等进行检测。其中，探针法可基于在一个孔中同时进行第一靶序列和第二靶序列的扩增而同时检测两种片段，本方案能提高检测通量，降低检测成本，提高检测效率和准确率，避免相互干扰，减少误差；需要说明的是，探针应为两种，分别位于第一靶序列和第二靶序列，且相互之间不互补配对，且均为人类染色体上的保守序列，探针上的5’端具有猝灭基团，该猝灭基团与探针上的荧光基团结合，使得探针不发出荧光，当进行PCR扩增时，两种探针分别结合在自己的靶向结合区域(模板上)，聚合酶在以模板链为基础，延伸引物时，其5’-3’外切酶活性发生作用，将结合在模板上的探针的5’端的猝灭基团切除，使得荧光探针产生荧光，进而通过检测到的两种荧光的情况，确定样本中第一靶序列和第二靶序列量/浓度，进而获得样品中cfDNA的量以及完整性等信息。
优选的，第二引物组和第三引物组具有相同的上游引物或下游引物，从而可以简化试剂盒组分，降低试剂盒生产成本。
为了进一步提高检测的灵敏度和准确性，更优选的，第一靶序列的长度在50bp～150bp之间，更优选在60bp～120bp之间，第二靶序列的长度在150bp～300bp之间，更优选在180bp～300bp之间。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在检测血浆中cfDNA的技术中的应用。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上 述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在评估个体健康中的应用。其中，个体健康中的应用包括运动健身效果的动态监控、个体衰老评估(体现在衰老标志物的监控)等。研究表明，身体的健康状况与cfDNA的浓度变化息息相关，监控cfDNA浓度的变化可以反映个体健康状况，包括运动健身身体状况的变化；cfDNA包含端粒的片段，而端粒的缩短与细胞衰老有着密切的关系。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在中风诊断和/或治疗中的应用。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在肿瘤诊断中的应用。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在肿瘤治疗中的应用。
在肿瘤治疗中的应用包括治疗效果监控、预后评估中的应用。利用cfDNA作为一个潜在的癌症生物标记物始于1977年，Leon与其同事利用放射免疫化学的方法证明在癌症患者血清中检测出的cfDNA含量会比健康人的明显偏高，但随着肿瘤患者病情的好转，患者体内cfDNA的含量也会伴随着下降。因此，检测出血浆中cfDNA含量的技术将有可能为评判个体健康提供一种获取相对便捷的辅助性动态监控指标。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在自身免疫疾病的诊断中的应用。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在自身免疫疾病的治疗中的应用。
其中，自身免疫性疾病可以为系统性红斑狼疮，研究表明，系统性器官损伤的病人血浆中具有高浓度的cfDNA，而且cfDNA浓度变化与个体生理状态及其临床表现息息相关，cfDNA的浓度会在一定程度反映个体生理状态及其临床表现。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在系统性器官损伤的诊断和/或治疗中的应用。其中，系统性器官损伤包括肾小球肾炎、胰腺炎、炎症性肠病、肝炎等炎症疾病等。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了上述用于扩增获得cfDNA标准品的引物组、上述PCR扩增阳性标准品、上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品、上述阳性质控品或上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA进行检测的试剂盒在器官移植中的应用。器官移植中应用为在器官移植排异性的监控中的应用。cfDNA来自于供体器官的坏死的细胞(释放量大于10，000bp)、凋亡的细胞(180-200个单核小体DNA)和一些活性释放物质，它在血浆中的半衰期为15-30min。治疗性药物的检测依据是根据检测药物的毒性，如果在早期可以加上cfDNA检测则可以降低早期感染的风险。与传统技术相比，cfDNA检测不仅能够更早的检测出器官的免疫排斥反应，而且使对肾脏、心脏、肺和肝脏的移植中的检测更简便经济，同时还可以根据个人情况设计移植方案。
根据本发明一种典型的实施方式，提供了一种对血浆样品的cfDNA检测的qPCR方法。该qPCR方法包括：S1，利用第四引物组对含有不同浓度阳性标准品的血浆阳性标准品进行qPCR扩增，得含有不同浓度阳性标准品的血浆阳性标准品的qPCR扩增结果；S2，基于对含 有不同浓度阳性标准品的血浆阳性样品的qPCR扩增结果，拟合出标准曲线；第四引物组包括第四上游引物和第四下游引物；第四上游引物包括第一外源序列，第四下游引物包括第二外源序列；血浆阳性标准品为上述用于对血浆样本的cfDNA检测的血浆阳性标准品。
优选的，S1还包括采用第二引物组对血浆样品进行qPCR扩增，得血浆样品的第一qPCR扩增结果；第二引物组包括：第二上游引物和第二下游引物；第二上游引物包括第一锚定序列，第二下游引物包括第二锚定序列。
优选的，第二上游引物为第一锚定序列，第二下游引物为第二锚定序列。
优选的，第四上游引物为第一外源序列，第四下游引物为第二外源序列。
优选的，qPCR方法还包括：S3，结合血浆样品PCR检测结果和标准曲线，计算出血浆样品中cfDNA的含量。其中，cfDNA的浓度＝((第一靶序列拷贝数/第一靶序列在基因组中的拷贝数)*人类单倍体基因组质量)/血浆样本的体积。
更优选的，S1还包括采用第三引物组对血浆样品进行qPCR扩增，得血浆样品的第二qPCR扩增结果；第三引物组包括：第三上游引物和第三下游引物；第三上游引物包括第三锚定序列，第三下游引物包括第四锚定序列；第三锚定序列和第四锚定序列均为人类的同一染色体上的保守核苷酸序列，且它们的组合能够用于扩增第二靶序列；第二靶序列的序列长度大于第一靶序列的序列长度；所述步骤S3还包括：结合血浆样品的第一qPCR扩增结果、血浆样品的第二qPCR扩增结果和所述标准曲线，计算出所述血浆样品中cfDNA的完整性。
优选的，第三上游引物为第三锚定序列，第三下游引物为第四锚定序列。cfDNA的完整性＝扩增出的第二靶序列拷贝数/扩增出的第一靶序列拷贝数。
在本发明一具体的实施方式中，提供一种以L1PA2为测定对象从而检测人血浆cfDNA浓度和完整性的方法，具体步骤如下：1)以L1PA2作为内参靶向位点；2)制备标准品；3)制备质控阳参；4)血液样本做血浆分离；5)配制适用于以血浆样本为模板进行扩增的qPCR mix对待测样本进行检测；6)对QPCR数据处理分析。
L1PA2内参引物(L1PA2-P1：SEQ ID NO：1；L1PA2-P2，SEQ ID NO：2)：选取人类基因组L1PA2作为靶向模板，该位点为多拷贝数位点，在单倍体人基因组中对应了3345个拷贝，扩增后的产物L90序列长度为n1＝90bp，扩增原理参加图2(图2中，引物名称中省略了基因名称L1PA2，L1PA2-P1、L1PA2-P2分别简称为P1、P2)。
标准品制作：选取L1PA2作为靶向模板，设计引物(引物L1PA2-P3：SEQ ID NO：3，L1PA2-P4：SEQ ID NO：4)对目的区域进行扩增得到标准品，标准品的序列长度为131bp(扩增子长度为n2＝131bp的cfDNA standard，即阳性标准品L1PA2-S1)。因为考虑到标准品与待测样本的扩增环境最好一致，即两者均需要添加等量的人血浆作为扩增环境。另一方面在标准品中添加人血浆作为反应背景势必会引入血浆中自带的L1PA2模板，因此上述标准品制作反应时我们利用了外源序列的引物(引物L1PA2-P5：SEQ ID NO：5，L1PA2-P6：SEQ ID NO：6)；引物P5和P6无法扩增人血浆样本中的L1PA2序列，而引物L1PA2-P3＝L1PA2-P5+L1PA2-P1，L1PA2-P4＝L1PA2-P2+L1PA2-P6；这样采用L1PA2-P3和L1PA2-P4扩增得到扩增子长度为n2＝131bp的cfDNA standard，即阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，扩增原理参加图1(图1中，引物名称中省略了基因名称L1PA2，L1PA2-P1、L1PA2-P2、L1PA2-P5和L1PA2-P6分别简称为P1、P2、P5和P6。
在对待测样本进行定量时，标准品的扩增引物为引物的外源序列(引物L1PA2-P5，L1PA2-P6)，待测样本的扩增使用(L1PA2-P1，L1PA2-P2或L1PA2-P7，L1PA2-P8(SEQ ID NO：7)，L1PA2-P1＝L1PA2-P7，L1PA2-P1\L1PA2-P2扩增产物为90bp，L1PA2-P7\L1PA2-P8扩增产物222bp)。
标准品扩增时添加的人血浆可为每次测试待测样本剩余的血浆样本混合得到的混合人血浆(只要是人血浆样本即可)，因为外源引物无法扩增人血浆中的cfDNA模板，所以混合的人血浆样本中自带的cfDNA不会对标准品的定量产生影响。
完整性阳参的制作：选取L1PA2基因的序列片段作为模板，序列长度为n3＝222bp，使 用L1PA2-P7与L1PA2-P8引物对目的区域进行扩增得到扩增子L222，即阳性标准品L1PA2-S2，然后将等拷贝数的标准品与L222混匀，制备成完整性阳参，其理论的完整性值I＝50％，扩增原理参考图3(图3中，引物名称中省略了基因名称L1PA2，L1PA2-P7、L1PA2-P8分别简称为P7、P8)。
鉴于本发明的体系为以血浆为模板进行PCR扩增的体系，所以阳参的背景也应该为人血浆，但是使用的L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2与L1PA2-P7&L1PA2-P8引物可以扩增人血浆中的cfDNA模板，所以需要消除阳参使用的人血浆中cfDNA片段或将cfDNA片段的浓度控制在较低的水平，以此来保证阳参定量的稳定性。
在本发明中，可首先在血浆直扩体系中用L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2引物测定现有的所有血浆样本的cfDNA质量浓度，再从中筛选浓度值在15ng/ml以下(此浓度之下代表血浆中cfDNA质量浓度低，对人为加入的模板影响较小)的几份血浆样本，各取部分血浆进行混合，测试了其用于阳参的稳定性后，分装后于-80℃保存，每次取一管使用。
配制适用于以血浆样品为模板进行PCR扩增的qPCR mix：血浆成分复杂含有多种PCR抑制剂，qPCR定量的关键因素之一就是需要保证PCR过程中模板的扩增效率接近100％，所以选择合适的DNA聚合酶至关重要，本发明中选用了适用于以血浆为模板进行PCR扩增的特殊聚合酶(例如：Phusion Polymerase)，并通过调节Mg 2+、引物浓度、荧光染料比例等，使得qPCR的扩增效率接近100％。在本发明一典型的实施方式中，用于以血浆为模板进行PCR扩增的qPCR mix如下表1：

需要进一步说明的是，聚合酶：Phusion Blood II DNA Polymerase使用量最大为0.6μL(说明书推荐)，可根据实际的模板量减少用量。
MgCl 2浓度：2×Phusion Blood PCR buffer已经提供了终浓度为3.0mM的MgCl2，可根据实际情况增加MgCl2浓度最高达4.5mM。

采用绝对定量的方法，通过标准品计算出待测血浆样本浓度值和完整性值。在以阳性标 准品S1为标准品的情况下，标准品使用L1PA2-P5&L1PA2-P6引物进行扩增(其扩增子片段长度为131bp)，待测样本用L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2引物进行扩增(其扩增子片段长度为90bp)，则待测样本的真实拷贝数值A(L90)为qPCR软件根据标准曲线定量的拷贝数值O(L90)乘以系数Index1＝标准品扩增子长度/待测样本的扩增子长度＝131bp/90bp＝1.46，即A(L90)＝O(L90)*1.46。这样的计算可以消除由于标准品与待测样本扩增子长度差异而导致的定量结果间的偏差。同理，在以S1为标准品的情况下，如果待测样本用L1PA2-P7&L1PA2-P8引物进行扩增(其扩增子片段长度为222bp)，则待测样本的真实拷贝数值A(L222)为QPCR软件根据标准曲线定量的拷贝数值O(L222)乘以系数Index2＝标准品扩增子长度/待测样本的扩增子长度＝131bp/222bp＝0.59，即A(L222)＝O(L222)*0.59。计算得到待测样本真实拷贝数值A(L90)后，利用拷贝数与基因组质量的对应关系即3345个拷贝数的A(L90)对应一个单倍体基因组的质量(3.3pg)，待测样本的质量浓度C＝A(L90)/2/3345*3.3ng/ml。计算得到待测样本真实拷贝数值A(L90)与A(L222)后，可以得到完整性值I＝A(L222)/A(L90)。
在本发明的发明宗旨指导下，扩增的DNA及引物可以有多种选择，例如，在本发明一具体的实施方式中，具体的扩增序列及引物信息如下：L1PA2的序列为SEQ ID NO：8。
备注：引物L1PA2-P1与L1PA2中的(SEQ ID NO：9)互补，引物P2为SEQ ID NO：2，引物P8为SEQ ID NO：7。

在本发明一具体的实施方式中，血浆的处理可以通过以下方法进行：
血液样本用EDTA或Streck抗凝管采集，采血完成后上下轻轻颠倒5～10次使样本和抗凝剂充分混匀。采用EDTA采血管收集的血液样本需保存于4℃环境，一般要求3h内需对样本进行血浆分离。采用Streck采血管收集的血液样本可常温运输，一般要求1周内需对样本进 行血浆分离。
血浆分离采用两步法，将带有全血样本的采血管置于4℃，1,600g离心10分钟，低速离心完成后吸取血浆部分。在吸取结束时，采血管中剩余血浆的液面距白膜层的高度需保证至少有0.5-1cm，以防止白膜层中的有核细胞污染吸取的血浆成分。第二步离心采用高速离心，将血浆置于4℃，1,6000g离心10分钟。第二步离心完成后，会发现管底存在少量细胞碎片，此时只吸取血浆上清，切勿吸到细胞碎片。经过两次离心并分离出的血浆样本即为后续的实验样本。
在本发明一具体的实施方式中，制备人工制备的gDNA来源的模拟cfDNA片段分布的DNA片段的方法具体包括如下步骤：
将4份以上的健康个体(男女各半)的血液gDNA等量混合在一起，DNA总量2～3μg。使用KAPA HyperPlus Kit提供的KAPA Frag Enzyme对混合后gDNA进行酶切打断(40min)，打断纯化后的DNA再用bluepippin 3％Agarose Gel对100bp-350bp之间的小片段gDNA进行富集。富集后的产物经过磁珠纯化，得到gDNA(100-350)的片段即为模拟cfDNA片段分布的DNA片段，使用Qubit对其进行浓度测定。
在本发明一具体的实施方式中，血浆阳性标准品中含PCR扩增阳性标准品的浓度范围如下：本发明使用的标准品6个点的拷贝数浓度(每个反应孔)依次为：1000、5000、10000、20000、100000、1000000。该系列标准品可测量的血浆样本cfDNA浓度范围为：1.44ng/mL-717.99ng/mL。标准品拷贝数浓度的设置原则大概是在保证覆盖测试样本浓度范围的同时尽可能缩小标准品的范围，以获取更精确的定量结果。针对于不同的测试对象，标准品的拷贝数浓度范围可以作调整，例如健康人的血浆cfDNA浓度范围一般不超过100ng/mL，标准品浓度范围可以缩窄；例如肿瘤病人的血浆浓度最高可能到1000ng/mL，标准品浓度范围可以放宽，以提高制备获得标准品曲线的准确性和适用性。
根据本发明一典型的实施例，提供几种在本发明宗旨指导下获得的可用于具体检测的目标序列及其对应的扩增引物，具体如下(注：在本发明中P1～P8可以代表引物的物质，以L1PA2为例，可参见图1和图2，引物命名的中间数字，例如L1PA2-1-P7中的“1”，可以理解为第几组，相同基因中，相同组的引物为一对扩增引物，例如，长片段引物L1PA2-1-P7和L1PA2-1-P8为一对扩增引物，短片段引物L1PA2-11-P1和L1PA2-11-P2为一对扩增引物)：

实施例1
下述实施例中所用的试剂信息如下表21所示。
表21
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000028
本实施例中涉及的引物及阳性标准品信息如下：
引物L1PA2-P1：SEQ ID NO：1。引物L1PA2-P2，SEQ ID NO：2。引物L1PA2-P3：SEQ ID NO：3。引物L1PA2-P4：SEQ ID NO：4。引物L1PA2-P5：SEQ ID NO：5。引物L1PA2-P6：SEQ ID NO：6。引物L1PA2-P7：SEQ ID NO：1。引物L1PA2-P8：SEQ ID NO：7。
阳性标准品L1PA2-S1：选取L1PA2作为靶向模板，设计引物(L1PA2-P3：SEQ ID NO：3，L1PA2-P4：SEQ ID NO：4)对目的区域进行扩增得到标准品，标准品的序列长度为131bp，即阳性标准品L1PA2-S1。
阳性标准品L1PA2-S2：选取L1PA2基因的序列片段作为模板，使用L1PA2-P7(SEQ ID NO：1)与L1PA2-P8(SEQ ID NO：7)引物对目的区域进行扩增得到扩增子L222，即阳性标准品L1PA2-S2。
以L1PA2为例，“直接对血浆样本进行qPCR扩增从而实现cfDNA检测”(也称为直扩体系)与“纯cfDNA片段为模板进行扩增的扩增效率比对实验”如下：
一、以血浆为模板进行PCR扩增的PCR体系与纯核酸体系中阳性标准品L1PA2-S1扩增效率的比较

注，表27中的标准品均是L1PA2-S1稀释不同倍数得到的，具体稀释情况见表28。
在相关设置页面(例如，与QPCR仪器连接的电脑上QPCR软件里面的设置页面)填写标准品各点对应的模板拷贝数(copies/reaction)，标准品各点对应的模板拷贝数(copies/reaction)如下表28：
表28
标准品 每个反应孔中的拷贝数

标准品2 100000
标准品3 20000
标准品4 10000
标准品5 5000
标准品6 1000
qPCR实验结束后，通过StepOne plus仪器自带的软件分析纯核酸体系和以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系标准品拟合的标准曲线及其扩增效率：纯核酸体系的回归系数R 2＝1.000，扩增效率Eff％＝98.577％；以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系的回归系数R 2＝0.999，扩增效率Eff％＝98.842％。
以上分析结果表明，制备的阳性标准品在纯核酸体系与以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系中扩增效率均正常，两种体系的扩增效率无明显差异。
二、以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系与纯核酸体系中不同标准品之间的偏差(可作为待测产物与标准品间比例关系换算的证明)
将2套标准品(阳性标准品L1PA2-S1和阳性标准品L1PA2-S2)用不同引物分别作标准曲线，共得到3条标准曲线，具体信息如下：
1)阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，引物用L1PA2-P5和L1PA2-P6做标准曲线；
2)阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，引物用L1PA2-P1和L1PA2-P2做标准曲线；
3)阳性标准品L1PA2-S2，引物用L1PA2-P7和L1PA2-P8做标准曲线。
在模板数相同的情况下，qPCR检测到的荧光值强度与扩增子长度成正比，所以说，1)、2)、3)标准品之间的定量值可以通过扩增子长度的比值进行换算。
纯核酸体系与以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系qPCR反应mix的配制方法及反应程序同上(以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系与纯核酸体系中阳性标准品L1PA2-S1扩增效率的比较)。
纯核酸体系中不同标准品之间的偏差，如下表29所示。
表29
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000032
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000033
备注：标准品1～6分别为对应的标准品不同的稀释产物。
Observed copies指qPCR仪实测的拷贝数，Expected copies指理论上标准品的拷贝数。
O/E＝Observed copies/Expected copies，Average(O/E)即同一标准品所有点O/E的均值；CV(O/E)即同一标准品所有点O/E的变异系数。
以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系中不同标准品之间的偏差，如下表30所示。
表30
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000034
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000035
备注：标准品1～6分别为对应的标准品不同的稀释产物。
Observed copies指qPCR仪实测的拷贝数，Expected copies指理论上标准品的拷贝数。
O/E＝Observed copies/Expected copies，Average(O/E)即同一标准品所有点O/E的均值；CV(O/E)即同一标准品所有点O/E的变异系数。
从结果来看，纯核酸体系与以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系中不同标准品之间的偏差均很小，其中以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系中不同标准品之间的偏差更小。基于这样的测试结果，我们认为只使用1)阳性标准品L1PA2-S1+L1PA2-P5&L1PA2-P6引物这1套标准品对待测样本进行浓度或完整性的测定，与同时使用2)阳性标准品L1PA2-S1+L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2引物和3)阳性标准品L1PA2-S2+L1PA2-P7&L1PA2-P8引物这2套标准品对待测样本进行浓度或完整性的测定，待测样本的测定结果基本等同。
三、标准曲线的获得及其适用性
上述获取标准曲线的方式为使用StepOne plus qPCR仪自带软件进行分析，在相关设置版面将标准品每个点对应的拷贝数按要求输入，软件经过计算后得到分析结果，分析结果包括标准曲线的斜率(slope)、Y-截距(y-intercept)、回归系数(R 2value)、扩增效率(Eff％)。关键指标为回归系数(R 2value)与扩增效率(Eff％)：R 2value越接近1，表示标准曲线的线性拟合程度越好，优选范围为R 2value≥0.99；Eff％最理想的状态为100％，优选范围为95％～105％(图4～9中，quantity为量，即拷贝数)。
1)纯核酸扩增体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P5&L1PA2-P6引物，扩增子长度为131bp)的标准曲线如图4所示。
2)纯核酸体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2引物，扩增子长度90bp，)的标准曲线如图5所示。
3)纯核酸体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S2，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P7&L1PA2-P8引物，扩增子长度222bp)的标准曲线如图6所示。
4)以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P5&L1PA2-P6引物，扩增子长度为131bp)的标准曲线如图7所示。
5)以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S1，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2引物，扩增子长度90bp)的标准曲线如图8所示。
6)以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系(阳性标准品L1PA2-S2，扩增引物为：L1PA2-P7&L1PA2-P8引物，扩增子长度222bp)的标准曲线如图9所示。
以上是StepOne plus软件自动分析结果，再同一扩增体系中，三种不同标准品的扩增效率接近。此处补充标准曲线分析的计算原理：标准曲线即将标准品模板拷贝数取log值对每个稀释样本的Ct值作图，得到的递减的线性图。R 2就是反映该递减线性关系的可信度，理想情况下R 2＝1。在对标准曲线进行线性拟合时，可以计算得到该直线的斜率slope，理想状态下slope＝-3.32。通过slope值计算即可得到扩增效率Eff％＝(10 (-1/slope)-1)*100％，理想状态下Eff％＝100％。
实施例2
除了染料法QPCR可以实现本发明，探针法同样也可以，在本实施例中，将列举几种具体的可行实施方案。
方案a：浓度和完整性分开检测
例举两组方案a中的引物及探针序列信息，如表31：
表31

Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000037
注：本方案a中每组引物的扩增产物(长片段/短片段)检测共用一个探针，所以浓度与完整性分开两管检测，即短片段检测为一管(以方案1为例，此管包括探针1、引物11-F、引物11-R)，长片段检测为另一管(以方案1为例，此管包括探针1、引物12-F、引物12-R)。

对10个血浆样本采用方案a进行检测，结果与使用染料法QPCR得到的结果一致(具体结果未示出)，说明方案a切实可行。
方案b：浓度和完整性在同一管检测
例举两组方案b中的引物及探针序列信息，如表35：
表35
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000039
注：本方案b中，每组引物的扩增的产物(长片段/短片段)检测分别用不同的探针，所以浓度与完整性可在同一PCR管检测，即同一PCR管中包含长片段引物对、短片段引物对、两种探针(以同时检测短片段1和长片段1的方案3为例，此PCR管中包括探针31、探针32、引物31-F、引物31-R、引物32-F、引物32-R)。

4)计算待测物浓度及完整性：
采用绝对定量的方法，通过标准品计算出待测血浆样本浓度值和完整性值。
探针法以血浆为模板，PCR扩增聚合酶还可用以下酶替代：

实施例4
单拷贝、多拷贝基因方法比较试验及结果
实验方法：
使用两种引物扩增定量提取后的cfDNA样本中单拷贝基因(MSTN，EIF2C1)，并与L90(L1PA2的引物L1PA2-P1&L1PA2-P2扩增子，90bp)的定量结果做比较，分析定量结果间的异同及不同样本间相对值的变化趋势。
引物具体信息见表43：
表43
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000048
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000049
使用L90，MSTN，EIF2C1引物定量时，标准品用D-g125-1至D-g125-6。
说明：D-g125系列标准品是在测试过程中制备的另一套标准品，与前述的S1、S2标准品的区别在于，D-g125的制备过程没有经过PCR扩增，制备流程如下：先将gDNA片段化，然后筛选出接近cfDNA片段分布的片段，将该片段按一定浓度等比稀释即得到D-g125系列标准品，D-g125-1至D-g125-6是其具体标号。

注：表中的数值单位为haploid human genome copies/μL plasma，即每微升血浆的人单倍体基因组当量。
各引物定量绝对值的柱状图如图19所示，其中MSTN结果为两次定量结果的平均值。
两两引物定量结果间的一致性见表48：
表48
  R 2 P value
L90 vs.MSTN 0.9781 0.0002
L90 vs.EIF2C1 0.9514 0.0009
MSTN vs.EIF2C1 0.9867 <0.0001
实验结论：
MSTN，EIF2C1在基因组上的扩增模板在基因组上为单拷贝，L90在基因组上的扩增模板为多拷贝。所以L90在定量过程中对基因组模板量的需求量相对更宽松。
从定量结果的绝对值角度分析，使用MSTN，EIF2C1两套引物分别定量，其结果差值最小。L90与EIF2C1间定量结果的差值也整体小于L90与MSTN间的定量差值。
从定量结果的一致性角度分析，三套引物定量结果的一致性都表现良好，R 2均能达到95％以上，P value<0.001。
实施例5
选取来自健康体检者8例，使用EDTA采血管收集志愿者全血，在短时间内完成血浆分离。并将分离好的血浆样本分两部分进行测试，一部分各取400μL血浆进行cfDNA提取，并对提取后的cfDNA用纯核酸体系进行定量，另一部分直接用血浆进行以血浆为模板PCR扩增cfDNA定量。提取后的核酸产物定量体系和本发明的以血浆为模板PCR扩增定量体系中使用的标准品、阳参及引物相同，标准品、阳参及引物的具体信息在具体实施方式或上述实施例中已作详述。提取后的核酸产物定量方法参照现有文献(Direct Quantification of Cell-Free,Circulating DNA from Unpurified Plasma_PLos One，后续称现有)，具体步骤不在此详述。

三、血浆样本在以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系与纯核酸体系中的重复性测试结果
按上述步骤一(应用本发明的技术方案直接用血浆进行PCR扩增cfDNA定量)和步骤二(对提取后的cfDNA用纯核酸体系进行定量)对5个样本进行三次重复测定，得到这5个样本在以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系与纯核酸体系中的重复性结果见表58：
表58
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000062
Figure PCTCN2020112866-appb-000063
无论是纯核酸体系还是以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系，使用阳性标准品S1+P5&P6引物这套标准曲线对以上样本进行定量，cfDNA浓度与完整性的重复性均良好(CV值<10％)；纯核酸体系与以血浆为模板PCR扩增体系相比，重复性没有明显差异。
