Objective To establish a TaqMan-MGB fluorescent probe characterized real-time polymerase chain reaction ( qPCR) method for detecting retinoic acid induced genes G ( RIG-G) in human acute promyelocytic leukemia ( M3 ) .Analyze RIG-G expression levels in peripheral blood of both normal persons and M3 patients and explore its diagnosis value for M 3.Methods Methodology establishment study.A detection method and standard curve of TaqMan-MGB real-time PCR were established after designing specific primers and TaqMan-MGB fluorescence probe of human RIG-G gene and using reverse transcription complementary DNA ( cDNA) as a template.The performance of this method was evaluated in specificity, accuracy, precision, analytical sensitivity and interference substances . Twenty clinical specimens with M3 were quantified RIG-G expression so as to evaluate the correlation between peripheral blood and bone marrow samples .Meanwhile , the results of RIG-G expression in peripheral blood of 40 normal specimens and 20 patients with M3 were analyzed by t-test.And receiver-operating characteristic curve ( ROC ) was used to analyze the detection efficiency of M 3.Results There was a good linear relationship between log value of RIG-G standard substance and threshold cycle number ( Ct ) ( standard curve equation:Y=-3.539X+42.952,R2 =0.999).New method was used to detect standard substance . The deviation between observed and expected values was <5% (r=0.999).Three concentration samples (107 ,104 ,101 copies/μl) were selected for precision test.Intra-assay coefficients of variation were 1.38%, 2.31% and 1.38%, respectively , and intre-assay coefficients of variation were 0.71%, 1.17% and 5.07%, separately.All were less than 10%.The sensitivity of this method was 101 copies/μl.There was a good correlation of RIG-G results between peripheral blood and bone marrow in M 3 patients(r=0.996, b=0.973).But there was no significant difference between this two group results (t=0.099, P>0.05). However , there was obvious difference of RIG-G value in peripheral blood between control group and M 3 patient group (U=18,P<0.001), 3.62 ×104(1.61 ×104 -4.90 ×104)copies/μl for controls and 7.10 ×102 (5.43 ×102 -2.21 ×103 ) copies/μl for M3 patients, respectively.Conclusions Successfully establishe a TaqMan-MGB real-time PCR method for detecting RIG-G gene in peripheral blood.The accuracy, precision, sensitivity and specificity are good .It could provide necessary help in early diagnosis and monitor treatment of clinical M3 patients.
