Telomere Measurement by Quantitative PCR
摘要
Abstract
Objective To determine relative telomere length by quantitative PCR.Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from 9 types of human cells.Relative T/S ratios measured by quantitative PCR were compared with relative mean terminal restriction fragment(TRF)lengths in the same samples measured by traditional Southern blot methods.Results Relative R/S ratio measured by Q-PCR was 0.68±0.57,and relative mean TRF length was 8.57±2.34.By linear regression analysis,the correlation coefficient,R~2,for the relationship of T/S ratio to TRF length,was 0.7807(P<0.001).Conclusion We have demonstrated the measurement of relative average telomere lengths by quantitative PCR,using a carefully designed pair of oligonucleotide primers.The assay is simple,rapid and reproducible,thus reliable for a high throughput of samples.It is recommendable to be used in study of telomere biology and genetic epidemiology of cancer and aging related diseases.关键词
