Abstract:
Background and purpose:For the past few years, HPV DNA has been detected in the peripheral blood in the patients with cervical cancer and believed to be a promising tumor marker, but because the concentration in the patients' serum was extremely low, it made it difficult to detect the circulating HPV DNA. In order to find a way to improve the sensitivity of the assay, this study compared and evaluated three methods that are currently being used to measure HPV DNA in the extraction from serum of cervical cancer patients. Methods:51 patients were pathologically proved to be cervical cancer and enrolled into the study. DNA from their sera was extracted by three methods:(1) Phenol-chloroform extraction, (2) UNIQ-10 collumn virus DNA kit(SANGON,Shanghai), (3) QIAamp MinElute Virus spin kit(QIAGEN,Germany). Then the HPV DNA was quantitated by PCR using GP5+/GP6+ primers.Results:Either fresh or short-term storage sera has been used The positive rates were 14.3%, 5.7%, and 57.1% with three assays, respectively. But when long-term storage samples were used to quantitate, the positive rates were low regardless of the methods being used.Conclusions:QIAamp MinElute Virus spin kit was the most sensitive for the content of serum HPV DNA, it could improve the positive rate for the assay if the serum was not stored for long time.
