Detection of Microsatellite Instability by High-Resolution Melting Analysis in Colorectal Cancer

چکیده مقاله:
Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. microsatellite instability (MSI) is a molecular marker of a deficient mismatch repair system and happens in almost 15% of CRCs. Because of a wide frequency of MSI+ CRC in Iran compared to other parts of the world, the importance of screening for this type of cancer is highlighted. Methods: The most common MSI detection technique is a fluorescent PCR-based method in which fragments are analyzed by capillary electrophoresis (CE). This technique is very time-consuming, difficult, and expensive. We sought to develop and evaluate a proper method with high accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity to screen the MSI+ CRC. A high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis procedure is relying on the analysis of the melting curve attributes. Low cost, feasibility, high specificity, and sensitivity are outstanding attributes of HRM analysis. Results: Five mononucleotide microsatellite markers, including BAT-25, BAT-26, NR-21, NR-24, and NR-27, in 25 archival CRC tumor tissue samples were compared with normal tissue adjacent using HRM method. The specificity and sensitivity of BAT-25 with HRM method were 100% compared to CE, while other markers had lower sensitivity. However, when all the markers were considered together, the sensitivity and specificity became 100%. The number of MSI+ samples was 56%, which shows a higher ratio than previous Iranian studies. The highest MSI was related to BAT-26 (52%). Conclusion: The HRM method is much simpler and more cost-effective than current MSI techniques, and its sensitivity and accuracy are comparable. Therefore, it can serve as an alternative method in cases where CE is unavailable.

BACKGROUND Microsatellite instability (MSI) is an important marker for screening for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome) as well as a prognostic and predictive marker for sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). The mononucleotide microsatellite marker panel is a well-established and superior alternative to the traditional Bethesda MSI analysis panel, and does not require testin...

BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world. In 75% CRC develops sporadically, in 25% hereditary or as a consequence of inflammatory bowel disease. CRC carcinogenesis develops over many years. The cause of CRC in 85% is chromosomal instability (CIN) and in 15% microsatellite instability (MSI-H), where hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) represen...

Although often viewed as a single disease, colorectal cancer more accurately represents a constellation of heterogeneous subtypes that result from different combinations of genetic events and epigenetic alterations. Chromosomal instability (CIN), microsatellite instability (MSI) and CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) have been identified as the three major molecular characteristics, which i...
