Problems solved by technology

However, the main challenge of using ctDNA to assist cancer diagnosis and treatment selection in the clinic is how to develop a highly sensitive detection method to distinguish weak ctDNA signals from high cfDNA background levels, especially for ctDNA concentrations that may reach pg / mL levels. Early diagnosis requires higher sensitivity and selectivity of detection methods
Not only that, the current clinically available detection kits are generally limited by many limitations such as poor DNA extraction methods, poor bisulfite treatment, and unreasonable design of quantitative PCR methods for the detection of methylated DNA.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biotechnology and DNA detection, and in particular relates to a DNA methylation qPCR kit for lung cancer detection and its application method, in particular, to a methylation qPCR using plasma free DNA to determine The methylation status of one or more gene targets (such as SHOX2, HOXA9 and TAC1) is used for lung cancer detection or screening kits and methods of use thereof. After experimental testing, the kits of the present invention can combine the biomarkers The detection sensitivity is improved to the picogram / nanogram level of DNA molecules, and the detection sensitivity is improved by optimizing specific nucleotide sequence primers and DNA probes and improving the bisulfite treatment method of plasma free DNA.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biotechnology and DNA detection, and in particular relates to a DNA methylation qPCR kit for lung cancer detection and its application method, in particular, to a methylation qPCR using plasma free DNA to determine The methylation status of one or more gene targets (such as SHOX2, HOXA9 and TAC1) is used for the test kit for lung cancer detection or screening and the use method thereof. In addition, the present invention also relates to the application of the above detection kit in biomedicine Applications. Background technique [0002] Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. According to the American Cancer Society, there were approximately 234,030 new lung cancer cases and 154,050 lung cancer deaths in the United States alone in 2018, and the estimated number of lung cancer deaths is roughly equivalent to colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, and non-Hodgkin lymph...
