- Reference example 1 Preparation of urine samples
- the urine samples of the subjects (6 healthy subjects, 14 prostate cancer patients (hereinafter, also referred to simply as "patients")) used in Examples 1 and 2 below are , 5 days worth of urine provided by a man who obtained an informed outlet.
- Table 2 shows the age of each subject, the stage of prostate cancer, and the treatment history.
- stage II cancer localized inside the prostate
- stage II cancer localized inside the prostate
- Example 1 Solid-phase microextraction-specification of prostate cancer markers using gas chromatograph mass spectrometry
- Five patients ages 62-77 to reduce personal odors due to diet and genetic predisposition, and odors due to occult blood.
- a mixed urine was prepared by mixing equal amounts of urine for 5 days with stage II and Gleason score 7.2 (average).
- 6 healthy subjects 52-75 years old were divided into 2 groups of 3 each, and mixed urine was prepared by mixing equal amounts of urine for 6 days of 3 individuals in each group.
- a large amount of volatile components were collected by putting mixed urine in a closed glass container and heating it, and analyzed the components with a mass spectrometer.
- the compound was adsorbed on solid-phase microextraction fibers coated with divinylbenzene / carboxen / polyvinyldimethylisomer (DVB / CAR / PDMS) (supelco, # 57348-U, Sigma-Aldrich) to concentrate the dilute components.
- DVD / CAR / PDMS polyvinyldimethylisomer
- GC-MS GCMS-TQ8030, Shimadzu
- the analysis conditions for GC-MS are as follows.
- % RSD relative standard deviation
- Specimens obtained from healthy subjects and prostate cancer patient specimens (preoperative) were plotted at different positions along the PC1 axis, indicating that the profiles of volatile components were clearly different. Comparing the healthy subject sample with the prostate cancer patient + endocrine treatment patient sample (preoperative) was also plotted at different positions, showing that the profile of the volatile component was clearly different, but it was different from the healthy subject sample. Prostate cancer patient specimen (preoperative) The difference was not as great as the specimen obtained from the patient, and the prostate cancer patient + endocrine treatment patient specimen (preoperative) was closer to the healthy subject specimen along the PC1 axis. As for the first principal component, healthy subjects were positively large, and on the contrary, prostate cancer patients were negatively large.
- the first principal component was considered to be an axis indicating the state of health. Based on this, the result that the prostate cancer patient + endocrine treatment patient sample (preoperative) was closer to a healthy person is peculiar to cancer released from cancer tissue due to the effect of endocrine treatment to suppress the progression of cancer. It can be considered that the number of volatile compounds in the disease may have decreased, and it may have become closer to the profile of volatile compounds released from the cancer tissue of healthy subjects.
- Prostate cancer patient specimens (postoperative) and prostate cancer patient specimens + endocrine treatment (postoperative) specimens, which are patients after cancer removal, are along the PC1 axis rather than preoperative cancer patients. It was plotted near a healthy person in the positive direction. The presence or absence of cancer was thought to change the profile of volatile components released into the urine.
- the principal component scores of the individual peaks obtained by GC-MS analysis were plotted on the graph of PC1 axis-PC2 axis. From the above results, it was considered that the peak with a negatively large first principal component score is the component group that characterizes prostate cancer.
- Eight compounds in this population (Dymethylglutarate, 2,6-Xylidine, 2-Hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone, 2,6-di (propan-2-yl) phenol, Dimethylsuccinate, Acetophenone, 2-Phenyl-2- Phenol and 3,5,5-Trimetyl-2-cyclohexenone) were identified as prostate cancer markers.
- Example 2 Quantitative analysis of volatile organic compounds in human urine (change in urinary concentration before and after surgery) Using the preoperative urine of 5 cancer patients and the postoperative urine of these 5 patients, the 7 target compounds identified in Example 1 (Dymethyl glutarate, 2-Hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone, 2,6- The concentrations of di (propan-2-yl) phenol, Dimethyl succinate, Acetophenone, 2-Phenyl-2-propanol, and 3,5,5-Trimetyl-2-cyclohexenone) were quantitatively analyzed. Each urine sample was obtained by mixing an equal amount of urine for 5 doses. The details of the quantitative analysis method are as follows.
- Standard stock solution Dilute the target compound with DMSO and dilute it with 10, 20, 50, 200, 500, 2000, 5000, 10000 and 20000 ng / mL (equivalent concentration in the sample is 1, 2, 5, 20, 50, 200). , 500, 1000 and 2000 ng / mL) and used as a standard stock solution.
- 20 mL of standard solution 250 ⁇ L of purified water was added to the headspace vial, and 25 ⁇ L of the standard stock solution for each calibration curve was added.
- 20 mL of sample solution and blank solution 250 ⁇ L of sample was added to a headspace vial, and 25 ⁇ L of DMSO was added.
- a solution prepared by performing the same operation using TOC purified water instead of the sample was used as a blank solution.
- 20 mL of added sample solution 250 ⁇ L of the sample was added to the headspace vial, and 25 ⁇ L of the standard stock solution 200, 500 and 2000 ng / mL was added.
- the results are shown in Figures 1-7.
- the seven target compounds are components that show higher values in preoperative specimens than in postoperative specimens. From this, it was found that these compounds are compounds derived from prostate cancer tissue.
- Example 3 Quantitative analysis of volatile organic compounds in human urine (comparison of urinary concentrations of healthy subjects and patients) Eight target compounds identified in Example 1 using 4 days'worth of urine (24 samples in total) from 6 healthy subjects and 2 to 5 days' worth of urine (13 samples in total) from 4 prostate cancer patients. (Dymethyl glutarate, 2-Hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone, 2,6-di (propan-2-yl) phenol, Dimethyl succinate, Acetophenone, 2-Phenyl-2-propanol, 3,5,5-Trimetyl-2-cyclohexe none , And 2,6-Xylidine) were quantitatively analyzed. The quantitative analysis method is the same as in Example 2.
- the monitor ions of 2,6-Xylidine not selected in Example 2 are as follows.
- the eight target compounds are components that show higher values in the specimens of prostate cancer patients than in the specimens of healthy subjects. From this, it was found that these compounds are compounds derived from prostate cancer tissue.
