Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of detection kits, and particularly relates to a detection kit for simultaneously detecting the polymorphisms of human MTHFR and MTRR genes in a single reaction well. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of life science and medicine, the research on the association between gene polymorphisms and human health and diseases has always been a hot topic. Among them, the polymorphisms of the 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and the methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) gene occupy an important position in this research field.

[0003] The MTHFR gene is located at the position of chromosome lp36.3, with a full length of 19.3 kb and a total of 12 exons. The MTHFR encoded by it plays a key role in the folate-methionine cycle metabolic pathway, catalyzing the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, providing methyl raw materials for the synthesis of substances in the body and the methylation of nucleic acids and proteins, and at the same time maintaining the homocysteine in the body at a relatively low level. The common mutation site A1298C of the MTHFR gene will cause the encoded amino acid to change from glutamic acid to alanine, resulting in a decrease in enzyme activity, and further affecting folate metabolism.

[0004] The MTRR gene is also crucial in the folate metabolic pathway. The common mutation site A66G of the MTRR gene will affect the activity of methionine synthase, and further interfere with the metabolic process of homocysteine.

[0005] Numerous studies have confirmed that the polymorphisms of the MTHFR and MTRR genes are closely related to various diseases, including cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and reproductive health, etc.

[0006] In terms of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, when the enzyme activity related to folate metabolism is low, even if folate is supplemented according to the normal amount, the folate level in the body may still be insufficient, resulting in the accumulation of homocysteine in the body, triggering hyperhomocysteinemia, and further increasing the incidence risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as systemic atherosclerosis and thrombosis, etc. A mild and moderate increase in homocysteine level can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease death by 4-6 times, and it is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease.

[0007] In terms of reproductive health, the polymorphisms of the MTHFR and MTRR genes are closely related to diseases such as recurrent miscarriage and fetal neural tube defects. For example, the TT genotype of the C677T locus of the MTHFR gene is significantly correlated with low sperm concentration and high DNA fragmentation rate in male infertility patients, and may be a high-risk gene leading to male infertility.

[0008] In addition, these gene polymorphisms have also been found to be associated with the occurrence, development and prognosis of neurological diseases and tumors.

[0009] Currently, there are many methods for detecting MTHFR and MTRR gene polymorphisms, among which polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism PCR-RFLP is more widely used.

[0010] Chinese patent application No. 202223533154.6 discloses a real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR detection kit for detecting human MTHFR gene, including a box body, a first box cover and a second box cover symmetrically arranged on the top of the box body, the first box cover and the second box cover are connected to the box body by sliding rods in a slide groove, and the first box cover and the second box cover are connected by a movable limit hook that can be slid out of or plugged into the limit groove. When in use, move the limit hook to disengage from the limit groove, push the first box cover and the second box cover in the opposite direction, and the sliders of the first box cover and the second box cover move to the maximum in the box body slide groove, so that the first box cover and the second box cover can be opened to the maximum extent.

[0011] If the internal test tube of the above-mentioned real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR human MTHFR gene detection kit is damaged during transportation, the tester will not be able to know it in advance during the test and may accidentally touch the damaged test tube and contact the reagent, which may easily affect it and reduce the safety of use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Example 1 The present invention provides the following technical solution: A detection kit for simultaneously detecting the polymorphisms of human MTHFR and MTRR genes in a single reaction well, comprising: a box body 1, a plurality of moving grooves 9 and placing grooves 13 are respectively arranged at equal intervals at the top end and inside of the box body 1. The number of the moving grooves 9 and the placing grooves 13 is the same and their positions correspond one by one. Two warning covers 7 are symmetrically arranged inside the moving groove 9. A support plate 12 is arranged below the two warning covers 7 inside the placing groove 13. An elastic lifting mechanism is assembled between the support plate 12 and the bottom end of the placing groove 13. A follow-up driving mechanism is assembled between the support plate 12 and the two warning covers 7. Two support rods 11 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis at the top end of the support rod 11. The two support rods 11 are located between the two warning covers 7 and extend above the moving groove 9. A rubber ring-equipped placement ring 10 is fixedly connected to the top ends of the two support rods 11. A negative control tube 3 and a positive control tube 4 are respectively clamped inside the two rubber ring-equipped placement rings 10 at one side edge. A plurality of PCR reaction mixture tubes 5 are respectively clamped inside a plurality of rubber ring-equipped placement rings 10 in the middle. A plurality of primer and probe mixture tubes 6 are respectively clamped inside a plurality of rubber ring-equipped placement rings 10 at the other side edge. A box cover 2 is arranged outside the box body 1. A locking mechanism is assembled between the box cover 2 and the box body 1. Pressing blocks 8 are fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the box cover 2 corresponding to the positions of the negative control tube 3, the positive control tube 4, the PCR reaction mixture tubes 5 and the primer and probe mixture tubes 6.

The unbroken negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, and primer and probe mixture tube 6 during transportation remain in place due to the gravity of the internal liquid and wait to be taken out. The broken negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, or primer and probe mixture tube 6 during transportation loses the gravity effect due to the loss of internal liquid. After the lid 2 is removed and the pressing force of the pressing block 8 is lost, the lower support plate 12 rises under the drive of the elastic lifting mechanism, driving the broken negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, or primer and probe mixture tube 6 and part of the structure of the follower drive mechanism to rise. The rise of part of the structure of the follower drive mechanism drives the other structures of the follower drive mechanism, driving the corresponding two warning covers 7 to move towards each other until the two warning covers 7 merge and stop. At this time, the broken negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, or primer and probe mixture tube 6 is covered by the corresponding two warning covers 7, which can remind the tester that the negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, or primer and probe mixture tube 6 at this position is broken, avoiding the tester from contacting and being affected by it; The tester takes out the unbroken negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, and primer and probe mixture tube 6. First, open the tube caps of the negative control tube 3 and positive control tube 4, and pour the PCR reaction mixtures in the two PCR reaction mixture tubes 5 and the primer and probe mixtures in the two primer and probe mixture tubes 6 into the negative control tube 3 and positive control tube 4 respectively and mix evenly. After PCR amplification, fluorescence analysis is carried out to verify the effectiveness of the detection kit; After verifying the effectiveness of the detection kit, pour the PCR reaction mixture in the PCR reaction mixture tube 5 and the primer and probe mixture in the primer and probe mixture tube 6 into the test tube with the DNA sample and mix evenly. After PCR amplification, fluorescence analysis is carried out to judge the polymorphism situation of the MTHFR and MTRR genes in the DNA sample; The above PCR reaction mixture includes Taq DNA polymerase, dNTP mixture, 10×PCR buffer, MgCl2, UNG enzyme, and deionized water; In the primer and probe mixture, the primer and probe information designed for the A1298C locus of the MTHFR gene is as follows: Forward primer: 5'-CTGAAGGAGAAGGTGTCTGCGGGA-3' Reverse primer: 5'-AGGACGGTGCGGTGAGAGTG-3' Wild-type probe 1: FAM-5'-ACGCCCGGCTCCATG-3'-MGB Mutant probe 1: VIC-5'-ACGCCCGGCTCCCTG-3'-MGB Wild-type probe 2: ROX-5'-TACGCCCGGCTCCATG-3'-MGB Mutant probe 2: CY5-5'-TACGCCCGGCTCCCTG-3'-MGB The primer and probe information designed for the A66G site of the MTRR gene is as follows: Primer and probe information Forward primer: 5'-TGAAGGAGAAGGTGTCTGCGGGA-3' Reverse primer: 5'-AGGACGGTGCGGTGAGAGTG-3' Wild-type probe 1: FAM-5'-CCTGAAGCACGCGGCTG-3'-MGB Mutant probe 1: VIC-5'-CCTGAAGCACACGGCTG-3'-MGB Wild-type probe 2: ROX-5'-TCCTGAAGCACGCGGCTG-3'-MGB Mutant probe 2: CY5-5'-TCCTGAAGCACACGGCTG-3'-MGB.

[0031] Specifically, the elastic lifting mechanism includes two first springs 101 symmetrically fixed to the bottom end of the placement groove 13, and the top ends of the first springs 101 are fixed to the bottom end of the support plate 12.

[0032] In this embodiment, refer to the appendix Figure 4 , and the support plate 12 realizes lifting under the elastic force of the two first springs 101.

[0033] Specifically, when the negative control tube 3, the positive control tube 4, the PCR reaction mixture tube 5, and the primer and probe mixture tube 6 are in an intact state and clamped in the rubber-ringed placement ring 10, the support plate 12 descends to the lowest point due to gravity, and the first spring 101 is in a compressed state.

[0034] In this embodiment, refer to the appendix Figure 4, it can achieve that the negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, and primer and probe mixture tube 6 that are not damaged during transportation remain in their original positions due to the gravitational force of the internal liquid and wait to be taken out, and the negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, or primer and probe mixture tube 6 that are damaged during transportation lose their gravitational force due to the loss of internal liquid. After the lid 2 is removed and the pressing force of the pressing block 8 is lost, the lower support plate 12 rises under the drive of the elastic lifting mechanism.

The two first limiting rods 204 are located on the side of the same-side drive shaft 203 remote from the first rack 201 and are perpendicular to the two first racks 201. The two moving frames 206 are respectively sleeved on the two first limiting rods 204 through holes. Second racks 205 are respectively fixed to the mutually close sides of the two moving frames 206. The gear 202 on the side close to the second rack 205 is meshed with the second rack 205.

[0036] In this embodiment, referring to the attached Figure 3 and 5 , when the support plate 12 rises driven by the follow-up drive mechanism, the two first racks 201 rise. During the rising process of the two first racks 201, the two meshed gears 202 are driven to rotate. The two meshed gears 202 drive another two meshed gears 202 to rotate. The other two meshed gears 202 drive the two meshed second racks 205 to rotate. The two second racks 205 drive the two moving frames 206 to move towards each other on the two first limiting rods 204. The two moving frames 206 drive the two warning covers 7 to move towards each other to achieve the follow-up function of the two warning covers 7 and the support plate 12.

[0037] Specifically, when the negative control tube 3, positive control tube 4, PCR reaction mixture tube 5, and primer and probe mixture tube 6 are in a damaged state, the support plate 12 rises to the highest point due to the loss of gravitational force, that is, when it fits with the bottom ends of the two warning covers 7, the two warning covers 7 move to the closed state.

[0041] Specifically, the number of PCR reaction mixture tubes 5 is the same as the number of primer and probe mixture tubes 6.

[0042] In this embodiment, referring to the appendix Figure 1 to facilitate the detection work of the detection kit for simultaneously detecting the polymorphisms of human MTHFR and MTRR genes in a single reaction well.

[0043] Specifically, the locking mechanism includes two second limiting rods 305 symmetrically fixed to the inner wall of the box cover 2 and four locking holes 303 opened on the box cover 2. The second limiting rods 305 are located above the box body 1. An activity frame 301 is sleeved on the second limiting rods 305 through holes. A second spring 304 is elastically connected between the box cover 2 and the activity frame 301 outside the second limiting rods 305. Two locking blocks 302 are symmetrically arranged on the side walls of the two activity frames 301 away from each other. The four locking blocks 302 correspond to the four locking holes 303 one by one and are respectively inserted into the four locking holes 303.

[0044] In this embodiment, referring to the appendix Figure 3 , 6 and 7, the locking mechanism is to squeeze any one of the locking blocks 302 on both sides. The two locking blocks 302 being squeezed on both sides drive the two connected activity frames 301 to move towards each other on the two second limiting rods 305. The two activity frames 301 drive the other two locking blocks 302 to move in the same direction until the locking blocks 302 being squeezed on both sides disengage from the locking holes 303. At this time, the four locking blocks 302 are respectively disengaged from the four locking holes 303, and the separation of the box cover 2 and the box body 1 is completed.

[0045] Specifically, when the locking block 302 is squeezed to open the box cover 2, the activity frame 301 does not disengage from the second limiting rod 305.

The rubber-ringed placement ring 10 drives the two support rods 11 to rotate. The two support rods 11 drive the support ring plate 401 to rotate. The support ring plate 401 drives the screw rod 404 to rotate. During the rotation of the screw rod 404, the movable seat 405 moves up and down on the screw rod 404 under the guiding action of the two guide rods 406 until it stops rotating. At this time, the movable seat 405 fits with the fixed seat 402, and the upper and lower magnets 403 adsorb and fix the position of the support plate 12. That is, during the removal of the undamaged negative control tubes 3, positive control tubes 4, PCR reaction mixture tubes 5, or primer and probe mixture tubes 6, the corresponding two warning covers 7 will not close, and it does not affect the removal.
