Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a specific method for detecting the presence or absence of biliary tract cancer in a subject. A kit or device for detecting biliary tract cancer, which comprises a nucleic acid capable of specifically binding to miRNA, and A method for detecting biliary tract cancer, which includes measuring the expression level of the miRNA using the nucleic acid. do. [Background technology]
[0002] The biliary tract refers to the entire excretory pathway from bile secreted from hepatocytes to the duodenum. The extrahepatic biliary system is divided into the intrahepatic bile duct, which runs from the liver to the duodenum, and the extrahepatic biliary system, which runs from the liver to the duodenum. The extrahepatic bile duct, which exports bile, the gallbladder and bile duct, which temporarily store and concentrate bile, and the main pancreatic duct It is broadly divided into three parts: the duodenal papilla, which is the site that opens into the duodenal lumen, or the duodenal papilla.
[0003] Most biliary tract cancers are caused by the transformation of bile duct epithelial cells that line the lumen, and are treated with chemotherapy and radiation. Radiation therapy is ineffective, and early detection and surgical removal is the only definitive treatment. Biliary tract cancer does not have any noticeable symptoms. For example, if the cancer progresses and the bile duct becomes blocked, bile may flow back into the blood vessels. Since the first symptoms of cancer are jaundice and itching, it is often discovered at an advanced stage. Intrahepatic bile duct cancer rarely obstructs the extrahepatic bile duct, so in most cases The disease progresses without any symptoms of jaundice. Cancer deaths by site in Japan in 2011, as disclosed by the Cancer Control Information Center According to the statistics, the number of deaths from biliary tract cancer was 18,186, and The 5-year relative survival rate for cancer by site is 22.5% for men and 19.9% for women, the second worst after pancreatic cancer. Because the biliary tract is closely connected to important organs such as the liver and pancreas, This is a factor that leads to metastasis and worsens the prognosis.
[0004] Biliary tract cancer is broadly divided into three types depending on the location of the cancer: extrahepatic bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, and ampullary cancer. Furthermore, extrahepatic bile duct cancer can occur in the hepatic hilum at the entrance to the liver (hilar bile duct cancer), or in the area extending from the hepatic hilum to the gallbladder. upper bile duct cancer, from the gallbladder to the pancreas (mid-bile duct cancer), and from the pancreas to the 12th Cancer occurring in the bile duct close to the liver is divided into four types: It is known that surgery is difficult and the prognosis is poor.
[0005] UICC(Unio Internationalis Contra Cancru) The progression of extrahepatic bile duct cancer, gallbladder cancer, and ampullary cancer according to the "Biliary Tract Cancer Treatment Guidelines, Article 5" (Edited by the Japanese Society of Biliary Surgery, Kanehara Publishing Co., Ltd., 2003, p. 109) The stage is determined by lymph node metastasis, extraperitoneal distant metastasis to other organs, and macroscopic extent of spread around the bile duct. They are classified into 0, IA, IB, IIA, IIB, III, IVa, and IVb. The progression of intrahepatic bile duct cancer is determined by the TNM Classification of Malignant Tumors, 7th Edition, Japanese Version (UICC Japan Committee, TNM Committee translation, Kanehara Publishing Co., Ltd., 2012, p. 110) The stage is determined by lymph node metastasis, extraperitoneal distant metastasis to other organs, and macroscopic extent of spread around the bile duct. They are classified into Di I, II, III, IVa, and IVb.
[0006] The initial diagnosis of biliary tract cancer generally involves minimally invasive blood biochemistry tests, tumor marker tests, and and abdominal ultrasound examination are used (Non-patent document 1). Blood biochemistry tests for detecting biliary tract cancer For example, alkaline phosphatase, γ-GTP, and bilirubin, which increase with liver dysfunction, Tumor markers for detecting biliary tract cancer include, for example, CEA and CA19. -9, DUPAN-2, CA195, CA242, IL-6, etc. are known. The way to use tumor markers is to check whether their blood concentration is higher than a predetermined reference value or If the CEA level is low, cancer is suspected. For example, as described in Non-Patent Document 2, The standard value is 5ng / mL, and the standard value for CA19-9 is 37U / mL. If this value is present, cancer, including biliary tract cancer, is suspected.
[0007] Although still in the research stage, the expression of proteins and genes in biological samples such as blood There have been reports of detecting biliary tract cancer using ionizing radiation.
[0008] Patent Document 1 describes a method for detecting biliary tract cancer using the expression level of proteins in biliary tract tissue. It is written.
[0009] In Patent Document 2, mRNA genes extracted from cells in the blood (monocytes, etc.) are used. Methods for diagnosing gastrointestinal cancers, including biliary tract cancer, are described. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0011] [Non-Patent Document 1] Biliary Tract Cancer Treatment Guidelines Editorial Committee, "Evidence-Based Biliary Tract Cancer Treatment Guidelines," Igaku Tosho Publishing Co., Ltd., 2007, pp. 38-39 [Non-patent document 2] Kiyoshi Kurokawa, Clinical Laboratory Data Book, 2013, p. 633, 636 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0012] The object of the present invention is to discover a novel tumor marker for biliary tract cancer and to develop a compound that specifically binds to the marker. The object of the present invention is to provide a method for effectively detecting biliary tract cancer using nucleic acids that can be used. As described in Reference 1, the initial diagnosis of biliary tract cancer is generally performed using minimally invasive blood biochemistry tests. Abdominal ultrasound examinations are used to detect biliary tract cancer. The tumor imaging rate (the probability that cancer can be detected by imaging) ranges from 21 to 90% (Non-patent Document 1). This can lead to a decrease in the detection rate, especially when the cancer is located in the lower bile duct. For example, alkaline phosphatase, γ-GTP, and bilirubin, which increase with liver dysfunction, These blood biochemistry tests are also used to detect biliary tract cancer, but they do not specifically detect biliary tract cancer. In addition, tumor markers for detecting biliary tract cancer, such as CEA and C Known examples include A19-9, DUPAN-2, CA195, CA242, and IL-6. Of these, CEA is elevated in 40-70% of biliary tract cancer patients, and CA19-9 is elevated in 50- It is known that the level is elevated in 79% of biliary tract cancer patients (Non-patent Document 1), but It is not unusual, and Non-Patent Document 1 states that it is difficult to use for early diagnosis. In addition, DUPAN-2, CA195, CA242, and IL-6 are non-patented. Reference 1 states that its clinical usefulness is unclear. When conventional tumor markers are used, other cancers and / or biliary and / or peri-biliary organs There is also a possibility that benign tumors and / or diseases of the organs may be falsely detected.
[0013] Although still in the research stage, the expression of proteins and genes in biological samples such as blood There are reports on detecting biliary tract cancer using the current dose as shown below, but none of them have been put into practical use. That's not the case.
[0014] Patent Document 1 describes a method for detecting biliary tract cancer using the expression level of proteins in biliary tract tissue. However, this detection method requires surgical tissue sectioning to obtain specimens. This is a physically demanding process for the patient, and is therefore not a preferred testing method. In addition, Patent Document 1 does not provide a specific accuracy for distinguishing biliary tract cancer with regard to this detection method. There is no description of detection performance such as sensitivity and specificity, and the method lacks industrial practicality.
[0015] In Patent Document 2, mRNA genes extracted from cells in the blood (monocytes, etc.) are used. A method for diagnosing gastrointestinal cancer, including biliary tract cancer, has been described. It is necessary to use a combination of tens to hundreds of mRNAs, and it has not yet been developed as a test. If this occurs, there are concerns about increased testing costs and the complexity of the discrimination algorithm. A is considered to be unstable and easily decomposed in blood, so it is not a desirable test subject. stomach.
[0016] Thus, existing tumor markers have poor performance in detecting biliary tract cancer, or The performance and detection methods of research-stage markers have not been specifically described, so these When using this method, unnecessary additional testing can be avoided by misidentifying healthy subjects as biliary tract cancer patients. There is a possibility that treatment opportunities may be missed due to overlooking the treatment or overlooking biliary tract cancer patients. Measuring genes consisting of tens to hundreds of genes increases the cost of testing, so It is difficult to use for such large-scale screening. Since collecting biliary tissue is highly invasive to patients and undesirable, we have developed a method to collect biliary tissue in a minimally invasive manner. It is possible to detect the disease from blood, and to accurately distinguish biliary tract cancer patients from healthy individuals. A highly accurate marker for biliary tract cancer that can be distinguished is required. Since surgical resection is the only curative treatment, highly sensitive markers for biliary tract cancer are highly desired. [Means for solving the problem]
[0017] As a result of intensive research to solve the above problems, the present inventors have discovered a method for collecting biliary tract tissue from blood that can be collected minimally invasively. We have identified several genes that can be used as cancer detection markers, and have identified nucleic acids that can specifically bind to these genes. By using the above method, it was found that biliary tract cancer can be significantly detected, and the present invention was completed. I arrived.

[0466] The specimens used in the method of the present invention include biological tissues of subjects (preferably biliary tissues), Examples of specimens include those prepared from body fluids such as blood, serum, plasma, and urine. The RNA-containing sample prepared from the tissue and the polynucleotides prepared from the sample are included. Samples containing methicone, body fluids such as blood, serum, plasma, and urine, and part or all of the subject's biological tissue These are tissues collected by iopsy or extracted by surgery, etc. , a sample can be prepared for measurement.
[0467] As used herein, a subject refers to a mammal, such as, but not limited to, a human, monkey, mouse, rat, etc. and preferably humans.
[0468] In the method of the present invention, the steps can be changed depending on the type of specimen to be measured. can.
[0469] When RNA is used as the measurement target, biliary tract cancer (cells) can be detected using, for example, the following steps: Steps (a), (b) and (c): (a) RNA prepared from a subject's sample or a complementary polynucleotide transcribed therefrom A step of combining a cDNA with a polynucleotide in a kit or device of the present invention. Top, (b) RNA derived from the sample or synthesized from the RNA bound to the polynucleotide cDNA is subjected to hybridization using the polynucleotide as a nucleic acid probe. or by quantitative RT-PCR using the above polynucleotide as a primer. measuring by (c) Based on the results of the measurement in (b) above, the presence or absence of biliary tract cancer (expression of genes derived from biliary tract cancer) Evaluating the presence of may include:
[0470] This invention allows the detection, testing, and evaluation of biliary tract cancer (or its resulting gene expression) in vitro. For example, various hybridization techniques can be used to evaluate or diagnose Such hybridization methods include, for example, Northern blotting and Southern blotting. PCR method, RT-PCR method, DNA chip analysis method, in situ hybridization method , Northern hybridization, Southern hybridization, etc. It is possible.
[0471] When using the Northern blot method, the above-mentioned nucleic acid probes that can be used in the present invention are used. By doing so, it is possible to detect and measure the presence or absence of expression of each gene in RNA and its expression level. Specifically, the nucleic acid probe (complementary strand) is irradiated with a radioisotope ( 32 P, 33 P, 35 S Label with a fluorescent substance or the like, and transfer it to a nylon membrane or the like according to the usual method. After hybridization with RNA from the tissue of the subject, the D The signal derived from the label (radioisotope or fluorescent substance) of the NA / RNA duplex is emitted. X-ray detector (BAS-1800II (Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.), etc.) is detected using a fluorescence detector (e.g., STORM 865 (GE Healthcare)). The measurement method can be exemplified.
[0472] When quantitative RT-PCR is used, the above primers that can be used in the present invention are used. This allows the detection and measurement of the presence or absence of gene expression in RNA and the amount of expression. Specifically, cDNA is prepared from RNA derived from the subject's biological tissue according to a standard method. A pair of primers of the present invention is used as a template to amplify a region of each target gene. - (consisting of the positive and negative strands that bind to the above cDNA) is hybridized with the cDNA to form a normal An example of a method is to perform PCR using the method described above and detect the resulting double-stranded DNA. In addition, as a method for detecting double-stranded DNA, the above PCR can be performed in advance using radioisotopes or fluorescent A method using primers labeled with a substance, PCR products are electrophoresed on an agarose gel The method involves electrophoresis and staining double-stranded DNA with ethidium bromide or similar to detect the produced Double-stranded DNA is transferred to a nylon membrane or the like in the usual way and labeled. The method may include a method of detecting the target nucleic acid by hybridizing it with a nucleic acid probe.
[0473] When nucleic acid array analysis is used, the nucleic acid probe (single-stranded or double-stranded) of the present invention is used as a substrate. Use an RNA chip or DNA chip attached to a solid phase. The area where the nucleic acid probe was attached was called a probe spot, and the area where the nucleic acid probe was not attached was called a blank spot. The gene clusters immobilized on a substrate are generally called nucleic acid chips, nucleic acid arrays, and microchips. DNA or RNA arrays are called DNA or RNA macroarrays. Although arrays and DNA or RNA microarrays are included, the term "chip" is used herein. In this case, all of them are included. Target: Human miRNA Oligo chip (Toray Industries, Inc.) can be used. However, this is not limited to this.
[0474] The measurement of the DNA chip is not limited to, but may be performed by, for example, detecting a signal derived from a label of a nucleic acid probe. Null was detected by an image detector (Typhoon 9410 (GE Healthcare)), 3D-Gene ( Examples of methods for detecting and measuring include a scanner (registered trademark) (Toray Industries, Inc.) It is possible.
[0475] As used herein, "stringent conditions" refers to conditions under which the nucleic acid probe is to a greater extent (e.g., mean background reading + background) than for other sequences. The number of hybridizations to the target sequence is determined by the number of hybridizations (measurements of at least 2 times the standard error of the round measurement). This is a condition.
[0476] Stringent conditions are determined by the conditions for hybridization and subsequent washing. The hybridization conditions are not limited, but may be, for example, 30°C to 60°C. SSC, detergent, formamide, dextran sulfate, blocking agent, etc. The conditions are as follows: 1×SSC is a solution containing 150 mM sodium chloride for 1 to 24 hours. The aqueous solution (pH 7.0) contained 15 mM sodium citrate and 15 mM sodium citrate. Contains SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate), Triton, or Tween. The redox conditions are preferably 3 to 10×SSC, 0.1 to 1% SD Another condition that defines stringent conditions is the hybridization The post-treatment washing conditions are, for example, 0.5x SSC and 0.1% SDS at 30°C. a solution containing 0.2x SSC and 0.1% SDS at 30°C, and a solution containing 0.0x SSC and 0.1% SDS at 30°C. Examples of suitable conditions include successive washing with 5xSSC solution. It is desirable that the hybridized state with the target positive strand be maintained even after washing under the above conditions. Specifically, such a complementary strand is a strand that is completely complementary to the base sequence of the target positive strand. A strand consisting of a certain base sequence, and a strand having at least 80%, preferably at least 85%, %, more preferably at least 90% or at least 95%, for example at least 98% or An example of a chain is a chain consisting of a base sequence having at least 99% identity.
[0477] Other examples of "stringent conditions" for these hybridizations are See, for example, Sambrook, J. & Russell, D., Molecules lar Cloning, A LABORATORY MANUAL, Cold Sp Ring Harbor Laboratory Press, January 15, 2001 This is described in Volume 1, 7.42-7.45, Volume 2, 8.9-8.17, etc. Can be used in inventions.

[0485] The value obtained from the discriminant equation is called the discriminant score, and it explains the measurements of a newly given data set. The discriminant score is substituted as a variable into the discriminant equation, and the grouping can be determined by the sign of the discriminant score.
[0486] Fisher's discriminant analysis, a type of linear discriminant analysis, is a dimensional analysis suitable for classifying It is a dimension reduction method for selecting data with the same label by focusing on the variance of synthetic variables. By minimizing the variance of the data, a highly discriminative composite variable is constructed (Venables, W. Modern Applied Statistics with S. Fourth edition. Springer, 2002). Fisher's In discriminant analysis, we find the projection direction w that maximizes Equation 2. Here, μ is the mean of the input, n g is the number of data belonging to class g, μ g is the mean of the data inputs belonging to class g. The numerator and denominator are the between-class variance and the within-class variance when the data is projected in the direction of vector w, respectively. The discriminant coefficient w is calculated by maximizing this ratio. i (Kanamori Takafumi et al.

[0490] SVM is a discriminant analysis method invented by V. Vapnik (The Nature f Statistical Leaning Theory, Springer, 19 95). Specific data items in a data set with known classification groups are used as explanatory variables and classification variables. To correctly classify the dataset into known groups using the target group as the objective variable A boundary surface called a hyperplane is determined, and a discriminant formula for classifying the data is determined using the boundary surface. The discriminant is then assigned the measurements of the newly given data set as explanatory variables. By substituting the value into the discriminant, the grouping can be determined. The result may be the group to be classified, or the probability of being classified into the group to be classified. Distance is also acceptable. In SVM, feature vectors are highly refined as a way to deal with nonlinear problems. A method is known in which a nonlinear transformation is performed to a dimension and a linear discrimination is performed in that space. An expression in which the dot product of two elements in the given space is expressed only in terms of the inputs in the original space. The kernel is called a kernel, and examples of kernels are the linear kernel and RBF (Radial Basis Function). Basis Function kernel and Gaussian kernel. While mapping to a higher dimension using a kernel, we actually avoid computing features in the mapped space. Therefore, it is possible to construct the optimal discriminant, i.e., the discriminant, by calculating only the kernel. For example, Hideki Aso et al., Frontiers of Statistical Science 6, "New Statistics in Pattern Recognition and Learning" Concepts and Methods, Iwanami Shoten (2004), Nello Cristianini et al., S Introduction to VM, Kyoritsu Publishing (2008).
[0491] C-support vector classification, a type of SVM method on(C-SVC) is a method that creates a hyperplane by learning with two groups of explanatory variables and then applies it to unknown data sets. (C. Cortes et al., 1995, Ma Chine Learning, Vol. 20, p273-297).
[0492] An example of calculating a discriminant for C-SVC that can be used in the method of the present invention is shown below. The subjects are divided into two groups: biliary tract cancer patients and healthy subjects. To determine whether or not there is a biliary tract disease, for example, a biliary tissue test can be used.
[0493] Next, a dataset consisting of comprehensive gene expression levels of the two separated serum samples ( We prepared a group of samples (hereinafter referred to as the learning sample group) and identified genes that showed clear differences in gene expression levels between the two groups. The discriminant equation using C-SVC with the explanatory variables and the grouping as the objective variable (for example, -1 and +1) Equation 4 is the objective function to be optimized, where e is the total input vector, and y is The objective variable is a vector of Lagrange multipliers, Q is a positive definite matrix, and C is a matrix used to adjust the constraints.

[0499] In addition to these, the specimen from the subject contains the expression of target genes derived from biliary tract cancer. and / or determine or evaluate the absence or presence of the protein, or compare the expression level with a control derived from a healthy subject. As methods for evaluating the data, neural networks, k-nearest neighbors, decision trees, and logistic regressions are used. You can choose a method such as regression analysis.
[0500] The method of the present invention may, for example, comprise the following steps (a), (b) and (c): (a) Tissue containing a biliary tract cancer-derived gene derived from a biliary tract cancer patient and / or a biliary tract derived from a healthy subject Expression level of target genes in tissue samples already known to contain no cancer-derived genes and a detection polynucleotide, kit or device (e.g., DNA chip) according to the present invention. measuring using (b) From the measured values of the expression levels measured in (a), the discriminant equations 1 to 3, 5 and 6 are created. a step of forming (c) measuring the expression level of the target gene in a sample derived from a subject using a detection polynucleotide according to the present invention; (b) The measured values are substituted into the discriminant formula, and based on the results obtained, the specimen is determined to contain the target gene derived from biliary tract cancer. Determine or evaluate whether or not a gene is present in a healthy subject, or compare its expression level with that of a healthy subject. evaluating the results in comparison with a control; Here, x in the formulas 1 to 3, 5 and 6 is an explanatory variable, and Measure a polynucleotide or a fragment thereof selected from the polynucleotides described in the section Specifically, the present invention includes a value obtained by discriminating between biliary tract cancer patients and healthy subjects. The explanatory variables for this purpose are, for example, gene expression levels selected from the following (1) and (2): (1) A base sequence represented by any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125, 466 to 478, or a complement thereof The genomic sequence is determined by either DNA containing 15 or more consecutive bases. Gene expression levels in the serum of cancer patients and healthy individuals. (2) A base sequence represented by any one of SEQ ID NOs: 126 to 148 or its complementary sequence In addition, patients with biliary tract cancer measured by DNA containing 15 or more consecutive bases Or gene expression levels in the serum of healthy individuals.
[0501] As described above, it is possible to detect whether a sample derived from a subject contains a gene derived from biliary tract cancer and / or whether it contains a gene derived from biliary tract cancer. As a method for determining or evaluating whether or not a discriminant is present, a discriminant is created using a training sample group. A discriminant is required, and in order to improve the discrimination accuracy of the discriminant, It is necessary to use genes with clear differences in the discriminant.
[0502] Furthermore, it is preferable to determine the genes to be used as explanatory variables in the discriminant equation as follows. First, we compared the comprehensive gene expression levels of the biliary tract cancer patient group and the comprehensive gene expression levels of the healthy control group, which are the learning sample groups. The expression level was used as a data set, and the P value of the t-test, which is a parametric analysis, and the P value of the non-parametric The P value of the Mann-Whitney U test, which is a risk analysis, or the P value of the Wilcoxon test The magnitude of the difference in expression level of each gene between the two groups is calculated using values such as the expression level of each gene.
[0503] The risk rate (significance level) of the P value obtained by the test is, for example, 5%, 1%, or 0.01%. A difference smaller than the mean can be considered statistically significant.
[0504] To correct for the increased probability of type I error due to repeated testing, Correction can be performed by methods such as Bonferroni and Holm (e.g. , Yasushi Nagata et al., "Basics of Statistical Multiple Comparison Methods", Scientist Publishing (2007). For example, the P value obtained by a test is multiplied by the number of times the test is repeated. , i.e., multiplied by the number of genes used in the analysis and compared to the desired significance level to obtain the overall This can reduce the probability of making a type I error.
[0505] In addition, rather than testing, the gene expression levels of the biliary tract cancer patient group and the healthy subject group were compared. The absolute value (fold change) of the expression ratio of the median expression level of each gene was calculated and judged. Genes to be used as explanatory variables in a separate formula may also be selected. A ROC curve was created using gene expression levels, and the AUROC value was used as the explanatory variable for the discriminant equation. The gene to be used may be selected.
[0506] Next, using an arbitrary number of genes with large differences in gene expression levels obtained here, A discriminant that can be calculated using the method above is created. A discriminant that obtains the maximum discriminant accuracy is constructed. For example, we can use the P-value significance level to find a discriminant for every combination of genes. The method of construction and the genes used to create the discriminant equation are selected based on the gene expression level with large differences. There are methods for repeatedly evaluating the number of items by increasing it one by one (Furey TS. et al., Bioinformatics, 2000, Vol. 16, p906-14). In contrast, the gene expression levels of other independent biliary tract cancer patients or healthy individuals were substituted as explanatory variables. The discrimination results of the independent biliary tract cancer patients or healthy subjects to which they belong are calculated. The diagnostic gene set and the discriminant constructed using the diagnostic gene set are independently By evaluating a group of specimens, a diagnostic test that can detect more common biliary tract cancers is Gene sets and methods for discriminating biliary tract cancer can be found.
[0507] In addition, the discriminant performance (generalizability) of the discriminant was evaluated using the split-sample method. That is, it is preferable to divide the dataset into a training sample group and a test sample group, and Gene selection and discriminant formula creation are performed using statistical tests on a group of training samples, and test samples are analyzed using the discriminant formula. Accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were calculated using the results of group discrimination and the true group to which the test sample group belonged. , and evaluate the discrimination performance. On the other hand, statistical tests are performed using all samples without dividing the dataset. The gene is selected and a discriminant formula is created, and a newly prepared sample is discriminated using the discriminant formula to check the accuracy. Sensitivity and specificity can also be calculated to evaluate discriminant performance.
[0508] The present invention provides a polynucleotide for detection or disease diagnosis that is useful for the diagnosis and treatment of biliary tract cancer, A method for detecting biliary tract cancer using the polynucleotide, and a method for detecting biliary tract cancer using the polynucleotide We provide a kit and device for detecting biliary tract cancer, especially for detecting existing tumor markers CEA and C Selection of diagnostic genes and creation of discriminant equations that show accuracy exceeding that of the A19-9 biliary tract cancer diagnostic method In order to carry out the above, in the method of the present invention, for example, CEA and CA19-9 negative Although it was judged that the patient had a normal brain function, detailed examinations such as computed tomography using contrast agents revealed that the patient had a normal brain function. The genes expressed in the serum from patients who were ultimately found to have biliary tract cancer were By comparing the expression of genes in serum from patients without biliary tract cancer, CEA and It is possible to construct a diagnostic gene set and a discriminant equation that show accuracy exceeding that of CA19-9 and CA19-9.
[0509] For example, the nucleic acid sequence represented by any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125, 466 to 478 described above one or more of the above polynucleotides based on the base sequence of the above-mentioned nucleotide sequence or its complementary sequence, and optionally a base sequence represented by any one of SEQ ID NOs: 126 to 148, or any combination of one or more of the above polynucleotides based on the complementary sequence of The diagnostic gene set is as follows. Furthermore, the diagnostic result of the tissue diagnosis is Class I biliary tract cancer. The expression levels of the diagnostic gene set in the previous specimen and the specimen derived from a Class II healthy subject were used. As a result, the expression level of the diagnostic gene set of an unknown specimen is measured. By this, it is possible to determine whether an unknown sample contains a biliary tract cancer-derived gene or whether it contains a biliary tract cancer-derived gene. It can distinguish between incomplete and incomplete data with up to 100% accuracy. [Example]

[0515] [Example 1] Selection of genetic markers using samples from the learning sample group and single-sample selection using samples from the test sample group Method for evaluating the ability of genetic markers to discriminate biliary tract cancer In this example, a genetic marker for distinguishing biliary tract cancer from healthy subjects was selected from a group of training samples.

In either case, only genes with gene expression levels of 2 to the power of 6 or higher in 50% or more of the samples were included. Furthermore, we selected genes with statistical significance for discriminating between biliary tract cancer patients and healthy subjects. The P values obtained by two-tailed t-test assuming equal variance for each gene expression level were then compared with Bonn- Frank After the Erroni correction, genes that satisfy p<0.01 are used as explanatory variables in the discriminant equation. The results were obtained as cards and are listed in Table 2.

[0519] Furthermore, using the expression levels of these genes as indicators, Fisher's discriminant analysis was used to identify biliary tract cancer. We created a discriminant to determine the presence or absence of 125 species selected in the training sample group. Among the genes, the newly discovered base sequence represented by any of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 The polynucleotides listed below were entered into Equation 2 to create a discriminant formula, and the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were calculated. are shown in Table 3. The discriminant coefficients and constant terms are shown in Table 4.
[0520] The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of the test sample group were calculated using the discriminant formula created above, and the selection was made. The discriminatory performance of the determined polynucleotides was verified in independent samples (Table 3). For example, the sequence The expression level measurement of the base sequence shown in number 1 was performed on the learning sample group of healthy subjects (100 people) and biliary tract cancer. When comparing patients (67 people), the gene expression measurements of the biliary tract cancer patient group were higher than those of the healthy control group. The results were significantly lower than those of healthy subjects (50 subjects) in the test sample group (see Figure 2, left). ) and biliary tract cancer patients (33 people) (see Figure 2 right). In other polynucleotides shown in Fig. 1, the gene expression of biliary tract cancer patients was significantly higher than that of healthy controls. The measured values of the current amount were significantly lower (-) or higher (+) (Table 2). Furthermore, for example, the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 was verified using a group of human samples. The predictive value for detecting biliary tract cancer was calculated using the threshold (5.69) that discriminated between the two groups set in the training sample group. The results showed 33 true positives, 49 true negatives, 1 false positive, and 0 false negatives. The detection performance was 99% accuracy, 100% sensitivity, and 98% specificity. The detection performance of all polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 was calculated and shown in Table 3. It was written.
[0521] Among the polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 shown in Table 2, For example, SEQ ID NOs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 2 8, 29, 30, 31, 34, 35, 36, 39, 40, 41, 42, 44, 45, 46 , 47, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 60, 62, 64, 65, 67, 68, 62 consisting of the base sequences represented by 70, 74, 75, 76, 83, 84, 105, and 107 These polynucleotides had sensitivities of 100%, 97%, and 97%, respectively, in the test specimen group. ,100%,84.8%,90.9%,87.9%,90.9%,66.7%,87.9 %, 93.9%, 75.8%, 72.7%, 72.7%, 75.8%, 63.6%, 78 .8%, 75.8%, 69.7%, 72.7%, 72.7%, 69.7%, 93.9%, 66.7%, 63.6%, 69.7%, 69.7%, 78.8%, 75.8%, 72.7 %, 78.8%, 81.8%, 66.7%, 60.6%, 60.6%, 72.7%, 66 .7%, 60.6%, 63.6%, 81.8%, 60.6%, 69.7%, 60.6%, 78.8%, 69.7%, 63.6%, 63.6%, 60.6%, 72.7%, 63.6 %, 72.7%, 72.7%, 63.6%, 66.7%, 60.6%, 60.6%, 63 .6%, 63.6%, 69.7%, 63.6%, 69.7%, and 60.6%, respectively (Table 3) Here, from the comparative example described later, the sensitivity of the existing marker CEA in the test sample group was 3 The sensitivity of CA19-9 was 59.4% (Table 5). For example, SEQ ID NOs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 , 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 34, 35, 36, 39, 40, 41, 42, 44, 4 5, 46, 47, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 60, 62, 64, 65, 67 , 68, 70, 74, 75, 76, 83, 84, 105, 107 The 62 polynucleotides alone surpass the existing blood tumor marker CA19-9 It was proven that the sensitivity can distinguish biliary tract cancer.
[0522] In addition, for example, the bases represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 23, and 64 The nine polynucleotide sequences were obtained from the stage 0 and 1 All six biliary tract cancer specimens (including IA and IB) were correctly identified as biliary tract cancer. Therefore, these polynucleotides can detect early stage biliary tract cancer and are useful for early detection of biliary tract cancer. Contributes to early diagnosis.
[0523] Furthermore, these polynucleotides were expressed in the extrahepatic bile duct, intrahepatic bile duct, and The tumors occupying the gallbladder and papilla were correctly identified as biliary tract cancer. Cancer of the lower bile duct and papilla, which are considered to have a poor prognosis, and cancer of the intrahepatic bile duct, which tends to progress without symptoms. was also detected.
[0524] [Example 2] <Evaluation of biliary tract cancer discrimination performance by combining multiple genetic markers using test specimens Pricing Method> In this example, the genetic markers selected in Example 1 were combined to evaluate the ability to discriminate biliary tract cancer. Specifically, the methods for evaluating the nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 selected in Example 1 were investigated. A combination of any two of the measured values of the expression level of polynucleotides consisting of the base sequence represented by Fisher's discriminant analysis was performed on 7,750 combinations to determine the presence or absence of biliary tract cancer. Next, the discriminant equation created above was used to determine the accuracy of the test sample group. The discrimination performance of the selected polynucleotides was examined using independent samples. The test was conducted using the above 7,750 combinations of polynucleotide expression measurements. When biliary tract cancer was discriminated from the sample group, for example, the salts represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 and SEQ ID NO: 4 were Using the measured expression level of a polynucleotide consisting of the base sequence, When comparing the healthy subjects (33 people) and biliary tract cancer patients (33 people), the learning sample group showed a significant difference between the healthy subjects and the biliary tract cancer patients. A scatter plot was obtained in which the expression level measurements of the groups were significantly separated (see Figure 3, left). The results were also reproduced in the test sample group (see Figure 3, right). Any two other pairs of measured values of the expression level of a polynucleotide consisting of the base sequence represented by 5 Scatter plot showing significant separation of expression level measurements between healthy subjects and biliary tract cancer patients, even when combined. These results were verified with a test sample group. Regarding the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 4, a function (0 = 5.16x + y + 48.11), the predictive value for detecting biliary tract cancer was calculated. There were 33 true negatives, 48 true negatives, 2 false positives, and 0 false negatives. The accuracy was 98%, the sensitivity was 100%, and the specificity was 96%. The expression level measurement values of polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 The detection performance for all combinations of any two of these was calculated. and a polynucleotide consisting of a base sequence represented by another SEQ ID NO. The 124 combinations of polynucleotides and their detection performance are listed in Table 6. For example, SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO: 7, SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO: 9, SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO: 2 5. Expression of polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO: 66 All combinations of dose measurements showed 100% sensitivity in the test specimen group. The sensitivity of the polynucleotides is higher than that of the existing marker CA19-9 (75.8% from Table 5). The combinations of nucleotide expression measurements were obtained in 6,316 test sample groups. The combination contains at least one of the base sequences 1 to 125 listed in Table 2 obtained in Example 1. That is, in the test sample group, the bases represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 were used. Any combination of two of the measured values of the expression level of polynucleotides consisting of the sequence CA19 It was demonstrated that the method can distinguish biliary tract cancer with a sensitivity exceeding -9.
[0525] In addition, the expression level of polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 is measured. Of the 7,750 combinations of any two values, the status of the test sample group was Correctly identify all six biliary tract cancer specimens of grades 0 and 1 (including IA and IB) as biliary tract cancer. There were 1,290 possible combinations of the two pieces. The combination includes at least a polynucleotide consisting of the base sequence represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125. These polynucleotides have also been used once before to detect early stage biliary tract cancer. This will contribute to the early diagnosis of biliary tract cancer.
[0526] In this way, polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 Expression level measurements of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more Even if these are combined, a marker with excellent sensitivity for detecting biliary tract cancer can be obtained. Regarding the polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 selected in Example 1, The miRNAs were ranked in descending order of P value, which indicates statistical significance, and the top miRNAs were added one by one. The detection performance was calculated using one or a combination of multiple miRNAs. Sensitivity in the sample group was 100% for one miRNA and 100% for two miRNAs. , 100% for 3 miRNAs, 100% for 5 miRNAs, and 10 miRNAs 00%, 100% with 20 miRNAs, 100% with 50 miRNAs, 100% with 100 m The sensitivity of iRNA was 100%. These sensitivities are higher than those of existing blood tumor markers. Therefore, a combination of multiple miRNAs may be an excellent marker for detecting biliary tract cancer. Here, the combination of multiple miRNAs showed statistical significance as described above. Any combination of multiple miRNAs is effective for biliary tract cancer, regardless of whether they are added in order of difference. It can be used to detect
[0527] From these results, it was found that all polynucleotides consisting of the base sequences represented by SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 125 It can be said that tid is an excellent diagnostic marker for biliary tract cancer.
