Embodiment 1

[0080] Example 1. Selection of DMPs related to the pathogenesis of liver cancer

[0081] sample

[0082] Liver cancer samples were obtained from 184 liver cancer patients at Seoul National University Hospital to screen DNA methylated regions associated with liver cancer development. For normal tissues corresponding to liver cancer tissues, a normal control group was used.

[0083] Using a column-based DNA extraction method (PureLink TM Genomic DNA Mini Kit, Invitrogen; PureLink TM Genomic DNA Mini Kit, Invitrogen) and beads (Bead) method of DNA extraction (MagListo TM 5M Genomic DNA Extraction Kit, Bioneer; MagListo TM Genomic DNA (genomic DNA) was extracted from each sample using 5M Genomic DNA Extraction Kit (Bioni). The extracted genomic DNA was quantified using a spectrophotometer (nanodrop), and the state of the DNA was electrophoresed on a 1.5% agarose gel to confirm whether it was degraded or not.

Embodiment 2

[0094] Example 2. Selection of Diagnostic Marker Candidates

[0095] refer to figure 1 , DNA was extracted from 182 cases of liver cancer and corresponding normal liver samples, followed by InfiniumMethylation EPIC BeadChip.

[0096] Methylation data was analyzed by a self-built pipeline. Probes with a low degree of methylation under normal conditions and a high degree of methylation in tumors were selected.

[0097] First, DMPs showing methylation differences between normal and cancer samples were selected.

[0098] Select 7 probes with very low methylation status in normal samples and very high methylation of more than 50% in more than 70% of cancer patients, and have machine learning methods to verify the efficiency ( figure 1 ,blue).

[0099] Select probes whose methylation is very low (below 10%) in normal samples and high on average above 30% in liver cancer patients, and perform machine learning to select the probes that can effectively distinguish liver cancer / norm...

Embodiment 3

[0101] Example 3. Probe Selection by Heatmap

[0102] As a result of investigating the DNA methylation of 182 liver cancer samples and 127 normal samples, 100,053 DMP (differentially methylated probes, differently methylated probes) were selected from more than 5% of liver cancer samples that were overmethylated .

[0103] A very low 13,078 probes with methylation below 10% were selected from normal samples to enable blood biopsy in DMP showing differences between normal / cancer samples.

[0104] Among the selected probes, 7 probes with over 50% hypermethylation were selected from more than 70% of cancer patients (Table 1).

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for assessing the prognosis or risk stratification of liver cancer by using a clinical specimen mixed with a normal tissue, wherein at least one CpG site thatshows a low methylation level in normal and blood tissues but a high methylation level in only a cancer tissue is measured for methylation level.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring the degree of methylation of a specific gene CpG site, thereby assessing the risk of liver cancer. Background technique [0002] Cancer is a disease in which cell division cannot be controlled due to uncontrolled cell cycle, it infiltrates surrounding tissues and grows rapidly, and spreads or metastasizes to every part of the body, threatening life. [0003] Cancer that occurs in the liver is called liver cancer, and liver cancer is one of the cancers with a high incidence worldwide. In Korea, the death rate of liver cancer is very high at 23 per 100,000 people, and about 10% of the total death rate among Koreans is related to hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and liver cancer. [0004] Liver cancer can be classified into metastatic liver cancer in which cancer of other tissues metastasizes to the liver and primary liver cancer (HCC; hepatocellular carcinoma) in which cancer develops from stem cells itself.
