Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnostic value of LOH and MSI of free DNA 3p microsatellite point in plasma of lung cancer patients. Methods Using PCR and sliver dye techniques, LOH and MSI of three microsatellite sites of plasma DNA on chromosome 3p in resected fresh tissue from 37 patients and whole blood sample from 94 patients were detected. Results The plasma free DNA concentration of most lung cancer patients was above microgramme level. Above 70% of tissues and plasma were positive. No significant difference was found at different stages and in different pathologic types. The result of patients with lymph node metastasis was significantly different from that of the patients without lymph node metastasis. Conclusion Plasma DNA of lung cancer patients is a good medium for gene diagnosis and may be used widely in the future.
