Purpose: Circulating cell-free DNA in the blood of cancer patients harbors tumor-specific aberrations. Here, we investigated whether this DNA might also reflect the presence of circulating tumor cells (CTC). Experimental Design: To identify the source of cell-free DNA in blood, plasma derived from 81 patients with prostate cancer was examined for CTCs and cell-free DNA. An epithelial immunospot assay was applied for detection of CTCs, and a PCR-based fluorescence microsatellite analysis with a panel of 14 polymorphic markers was used for detection of allelic imbalances (AI). Results: The plasma DNA levels significantly correlated with the diagnosis subgroups of localized (stage M0, n = 69) and metastasized prostate cancer (stage M1, n = 12; P = 0.03) and with the tumor stage of these patients (P < 0.005). AI was found on cell-free DNA in plasma from 45.0% and 58.5% of M0 and M1 patients, respectively. Detection of CTCs showed that 71.0% or 92.0% of the M0 and M1 patients harbored 1 to 40 CTCs in their blood, respectively.The occurrence of CTCs correlated with tumor stage (P < 0.03) and increasing Gleason scores (P = 0.04). Notably, significant associations of the number of CTCs with the AI frequencies at the markers D8S137 (P = 0.03), D9S171 (P = 0.04), and D17S855 (P = 0.02) encoding the cytoskeletal protein dematin, the inhibitor of the cyclin-dependent kinase CDKN2/p16 and BRCA1, respectively, were observed. Conclusions: These findings show, for the first time, a relationship between the occurrence of CTCs and circulating tumor-associated DNA in blood, which, therefore, might become a valuable new source for monitoring metastatic progression in cancer patients.

“…На сегодняшний день много работ посвящено изучению микросателлитных перестроек в цирДНК крови [107][108][109][110][111][112][113]. Микросателлиты -короткие повторяющиеся и высокополиморфные последовательности, состоящие из многократно повторяющегося мотива, например, ди-, три-, тетрануклеотида: (NN-N)n. Микросателлиты более или менее случайно распределены в геноме [114].…”

Внеклеточные нуклеиновые кислоты (внНК) в циркуляции как здоровых, так и больных людей были впервые описаны в 1948 г., однако оставались без внимания до середины 60-х годов прошлого века. внНК особенно интенсивно исследуются в последние 5 лет. Основное внимание уделяется исследованию внНК как источнику диагностического материала; однако механизмы генерации внеклеточных нуклеиновых кислот, а также механизмы, обеспечивающие их долговременную циркуляцию в кровотоке, однозначно не установлены. По данным одних авторов, основным источником циркулирующих дезоксирибонуклеиновых кислот в крови (цирДНК) являются процессы некроза и апоптоза, другие ссылаются на возможную секрецию нуклеиновых кислот как здоровыми, так и опухолевыми клетками. Известно, что цирДНК могут циркулировать в крови в течение длительного времени, ускользая от действия ДНК-гидролизующих ферментов крови и, по-видимому, находясь в составе надмолекулярных комплексов. В этом обзоре представлены данные разных авторов и приведены доказательства в пользу всех предложенных теорий появления цирДНК, описаны особенности строения цирДНК, а также факторы, влияющие на время циркуляции ДНК в крови.Ключевые слова: циркулирующая ДНК, апоптоз, некроз, активная секреция, ДНКазы, метилирование.

“…Detection of LOH in cell-free circulating DNA may be constrained by the restrictions mentioned above. Muller et al [93] have attempted to overcome this dilemma by taking advantage of a PCR-based fluorescence microsatellite assay for 12 polymorphic markers for the purpose of investigating LOH in the cell-free plasma DNA of 59 prostate cancer patients. To enrich the DNA portion containing shorter fragments [94], fractionation of plasma DNA into high and low molecular weights was performed.…”

Abstract:In most cases, early detection and treatment of cancer are prerequisites for full recovery. However, its early detection continues to be extremely difficult since its characteristic symptoms rarely manifest at the onset of disease. The development of highly sensitive, specific biomarkers also capable of reflecting pathological changes is, therefore, of the upmost importance. Lung cancer, for example, is most frequently diagnosed during the late metastatic stage so that, as a result, malignant neoplasms in the lung are among the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Circulating DNA is a non-invasive diagnostic assay that has been greatly improved for the purposes of diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancer. In the current review, we discuss recent data concerning circulating tumor-derived DNA as a tool for early detection, diagnosis, and follow-up. Given the scope of this review, the focus will be on lung cancer, one of the most prolific and lethal cancers affecting humanity today.
