| Abstract |
BACKGROUND:Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a target of molecular therapeutics for colorectal cancer. However, mutation of Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) gene at codons 12 and 13 attenuates the therapeutic effect of anti-EGFR therapies. Therefore, the detection of KRAS gene mutation is important for therapeutic decision-making. MATERIALS AND METHODS:KRAS gene mutation at codons 12 (c.34G>T, c.35G>C, c.35G>A) and 13 (c.38G>A) in six cancer cell lines were investigated. A loop-mediated isothermal amplification-based procedure was developed that employed peptide nucleic acid to suppress amplification of the wild-type allele. RESULTS:This mutation-oriented gene-amplification procedure can amplify the DNA fragment of the KRAS gene with codon 12 and codon 13 mutation within 30 min. Moreover, boiled cells can work as template resources. CONCLUSION:This newly developed procedure can be useful for patient stratification for anti-EGFR therapies. |
