PG - 169-176 LID - 10.1267/ahc.17024 [doi] AB - Identification of fusion genes in cancer is essential for pathological diagnosis and clinical therapy. Although methods for detection of fusion genes, such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), have been developed in last two decades, these methods are not ideal for detection of these genetic alterations owing to their high cost and time-consuming procedures. In this study, we developed novel application for detection of gene translocations using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). We verified the amplified DNA products of echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EML4-ALK), synaptotagmin and synovial sarcoma, X breakpoint (SYT-SSX), and immunoglobulin heavy chain gene and B cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (IgH/BCL2) by real-time PCR, agarose-gel electrophoresis, and the naked eye after the LAMP procedure. Fusion genes were detected in samples diluted 10(3) times within 60 min. Because of the advantages of rapid amplification, simple operation, and easy detection without requiring sophisticated equipment or technical skill, LAMP may have potential applications as an on-site analytical approach in hospitals for pathological diagnosis and decision making regarding appropriate therapeutic approachs.
