Problems solved by technology

This method has the advantages of high sensitivity and strong sequence specificity; however, this method has high requirements for experimental conditions. From the beginning of sampling to the analysis of final results, every step must be strictly operated, otherwise it is difficult to ensure the detection of gene expression level results Accurate and reliable (Bustin S&Nolan T, European journal of clinical investigation, 2017, 47, 756-774)
Patent CN102925543A discloses an in situ hybridization detection kit, detection method and application of pre-leukemia lesion mRNA level. Hybridization technology can detect the expression of Twist gene at the mRNA level, which is convenient and simple to operate, but its sensitivity is limited to a certain extent due to the inability to amplify the signal

Embodiment 1

[0042] Example 1 Twist gene expression detection kit

[0043] The Twist gene expression detection kit described in this embodiment mainly includes:

[0044] 1. False Capture Probes

[0045] False capture probes are combinations of local sequences containing different repeats of human transposons that neither hybridize to target mRNA nor to capture probes, amplification probes, and labeled probes with terminally modified fluorescent groups. The needles hybridize. The false capture probe is used for the pre-hybridization treatment of the biological sample to be detected, which can effectively prevent the non-specific binding of the capture probe to the non-target mRNA in the biological sample to be detected, and improve the specificity of detection (for specific use, select at least 2 The purpose of improving the specificity of detection can be achieved by using the false capture probe, for which reference may be made to Example 6 and Example 7). In this embodiment, three fal...

Embodiment 2

[0063] Example 2 Using the kit in Example 1 to detect the sample

[0064] The formula of described various solutions is as table 6:

[0065]

[0066] In this embodiment, the blood samples of tumor patients are preferred, and the expression level of Twist gene of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the samples is detected, wherein the pre-capture mixed solution, capture mixed solution, amplification mixed solution, and chromogenic mixed solution are all used in Example 1. All probes in the corresponding list of the Twist Gene Expression Assay Kit.

[0067] 1. Sample pretreatment, the cells to be tested are filtered onto the filter membrane

[0068] (1) Collect the cell suspension to be tested, centrifuge horizontally at 600×g for 5 minutes, and discard the supernatant. (2) Add 4ml of PBS and 1ml of fixative, vortex and mix well, and let stand at room temperature for 8min. (3) Sample filtration: transfer the liquid to the filter, turn on the vacuum pump to pump out the liqui...

Embodiment 3

[0098] Example 3 The impact of capture probe structure on the detection effect of the kit

[0099] 1. Design of kit preparation (capture probe structure design)

[0100] In order to evaluate the detection effect of kits composed of capture probes with different structures, experimental groups 1-3 were designed, and the three groups were all the same except for different capture probes. Among them, the experimental group 1 selected the self-assembled polymer branched nucleic acid probe in the kit of the present invention; the experimental group 2 selected the linear capture probe, and its composition structure from the 5' end to the 3' end is as follows: α1 or α2 region sequence, β1 or β2 region sequence and the γ region sequence composed of the specific sequence P1, spacer sequence and P2 sequence that can bind to the target mRNA to be detected, the base of the α1 or α2 region sequence, β1 or β2 region sequence and the γ region sequence The base composition is exactly the sam...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of molecular biology, in particular to a Twist gene expression detection kit. Background technique [0002] Twist gene, one of the members of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor family, was first discovered in Drosophila in 1987, and it plays a key regulatory role in embryonic development (Pei H, et al., MedChemComm, 2017, 8, 268-275). So far, two Twist genes have been identified in vertebrates, namely Twist 1 and Twist 2 (also known as Dermo-1), and their bHLH and carboxy-terminal functional domains have more than 90% similarity; however, the Twist 1 The amino terminus is rich in glycine, whereas the amino terminus of Twist 2 lacks glycine. Wherein, Twist 1 is the so-called Twist gene. The human Twist gene is located on chromosome 7p21.1 and contains 4 exons. Twist is rarely detected in healthy adult tissues, but is often highly expressed in various cancer tissues such as breast cancer, prostat...
