Rapid and quantitative detection of CpG-methylation status using TaqMan PCR combined with methyl-binding-domain polypeptide.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To assess the medical applicability of CpG methylation as molecular markers for cancer diagnosis, we established a new system to determine DNA methylation based on TaqMan PCR combined with a methyl-binding-domain polypeptide 2. DESIGN AND METHODS:We evaluated the diagnostic applicability of this approach by examining the methylation status of two tumor suppressor genes, RASSF1A and APC, in 10 paired hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the corresponding non-tumor liver tissues. RESULTS:Methylation levels of total 20 clinical samples measured by the TaqMan PCR assay showed a significantly positive correlation (R=0.814, P<0.0005 for RASSF1A, R=0.736, P<0.00001 for APC) with those calculated by bisulfite sequencing. The methylated DNA amount measured by our TaqMan PCR system precisely replicated the methylation status estimated by direct sequencing. CONCLUSIONS:This suggests our method may serve as a reliable and easy-to-use tool for cancer diagnosis using methylated genes as biomarkers.

  • Medical errors: impact on clinical laboratories and other critical areas.

    abstract::The Institute of Medicine (IOM) report (1999) stated that the prevalence of medical errors is high in today's health care system. Some specialties in health care are more risky than others. A varying blunder/error rate of 0.1-9.3% in clinical diagnostic laboratories has been reported in the literature. Many of these e...
