[PMID: 38827851 PMCID: PMC11140357 DOI: 10.12669/pjms.40.5.9216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate a PCR based method of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of short tandem repeats and its quantification for detecting donor chimerism after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in acute leukaemias. Methods The descriptive study was conducted at Genetic Resource Centre (GRC) Lab Rawalpindi from Feb 2018 - Nov 2020. A total of twenty patients with acute leukaemias having undergone HSCT were selected and assessed for the analysis of chimerism status. DNA extraction from the whole blood was done by chelex method and short tandem repeats were amplified by using conventional STR- PCR assay. Electrophoresis was carried out and 6% polyacrylamide gels were used for the resultant amplified DNA products and then followed by their densitometry. These patients had undergone HSCT from Pakistan Institute of Medical Science and Armed Forces Bone Marrow Transplant Centre. Results The peaks in the PAGE densitometry represented the donor chimerism in all post transplant samples of the patients. Conclusion Our study showed that densitometry of STR PCR PAGE is a useful and cheaper method for demonstration of donor chimerism in acute leukaemia patients having undergone HSCT. Hence this method can be a valuable option in the monitoring of chimerism status in these patients and therefore helps in preventing graft failure by fast and early treatment strategies for these patients.

Abstract
After hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, chimerism assay is a useful approach to monitor the success of the transplant and to select the appropriate treatment strategy, such as donor leukocyte infusion or immunosuppressive drug dosage. Short tandem repeat PCR is the method that has been accepted as the gold standard for chimerism. However, it has not yet been sufficient to detect mixed chimerism in patients with minimal residual disease. Simultaneously, recent years have been marked by developing sensitive, high-throughput, and accurate molecular genetic assays. These novel methods have subsequently been adapted for the analysis of post-transplant chimerism. In this review, we discuss the technical features of both novel and conventional gold standard chimerism assays. We also discuss their advantages and disadvantages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after liver transplantation (LT) is a rare but fatal complication. GVHD diagnosis is usually based on clinical symptoms and pathologic confirmation. However, it is often misdiagnosed due to its non-specific symptoms. Here, we report the detection of donor-cell chimerism using peripheral blood (PB) donor-derived deoxyribonucleic acid (ddDNA) for 3 cases with suspected GVHD after LT (GVHD-LT) through real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay targeting 39 insertions and/or deletions of chromosomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The qPCR assay for detecting donor-cell chimerism was performed for 3 post-LT patients with suspected GVHD using KMRtype® and KMRtrack® assays (GenDx, Netherlands). The mean recipient/donor-cell fraction of informative markers unique to each recipient or donor was calculated. RESULTS In Case 1, who received living donor LT (LDLT) from his daughter, initial sign was diarrhea at post-operative day (POD) #23. Case 2 received unrelated deceased donor LT and initial sign was cytopenia at POD #29. Case 3 received LDLT from her son and GVHD associated cytopenia was developed at POD #80. Average PB ddDNA fractions in post-transplant samples of cases 1, 2, and 3 were 39.68%, 78.38%, and 4.76%, respectively. Despite an active treatment including steroid and tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitor, 2 patients (cases 1 and 2) died due to multiple organ failures. CONCLUSIONS Early detection of donor-cell chimerism may help halt fatal progression of GVHD-LT. A qPCR test targeting INDEL of chromosomes would be a helpful procedure for timely diagnosis of GVHD.

Abstract
Objective: To optimize and evaluate a real time PCR of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism by SYBR Green method for detection of donor chimerism after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted at Genetic Resource Centre (GRC) Lab Rawalpindi from Oct 2017 - Dec 2019. A total of twenty patients of post haematopoietic stem cell transplant with various haematological disorders were studied to see the status of donor chimerism by using SNP real time PCR using SYBR Green method and short tandem repeat PCR. These patients had undergone allogeneic HSCT from HLA-matched sibling donors at Pakistan Institute of Medical Science and Armed Forces Bone Marrow Transplant Centre. Results: Real time PCR using SYBR Green was able to detect significant amount of chimerism in all 20 patients having undergone HSCT. Regarding precision of the real time PCR assay the mean value of donor chimerism was 94.1% (SD 3.96) and by STR PCR it was 95.1% (SD 1.41). The assay was found to be sensitive with a detection limit of <1%. Conclusion: Our results demonstrate that SNP analysis by SYBR Green real time PCR may be used for the evaluation of chimerism status in patients having undergone HSCT with a sensitivity of <1%. Hence donor chimerism by this sensitive method can be used in monitoring of chimerism in post-transplant patients with various haematological disorders.

Abstract
Severely immunosuppressed AIDS patients with recurrent opportunistic infections (OIs) represent an unmet medical need even in the era of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Here we report the development of a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched allogeneic adaptive immune therapy (AAIT) for severely immunosuppressed AIDS patients. Twelve severely immunosuppressed AIDS patients with severe OIs were enrolled in this single-arm study. Qualified donors received subcutaneous recombinant granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor twice daily for 4-5 days to stimulate hematopoiesis. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were collected from these donors via leukapheresis and transfused into the coupled patients. Clinical, immunological, and virological parameters were monitored during a 12-month follow-up period. We found AAIT combined with ART was safe and well-tolerated at the examined doses and transfusion regimen in all 12 patients. Improvements in clinical symptoms were evident throughout the study period. All patients exhibited a steady increase of peripheral CD4+ T cells from a median 10.5 to 207.5 cells/μl. Rapid increase in peripheral CD8+ T-cell count from a median 416.5 to 1206.5 cells/μl was found in the first 90 days since initiation of AAIT. In addition, their inflammatory cytokine levels and HIV RNA viral load decreased. A short-term microchimerism with donor cells was found. There were no adverse events associated with graft-versus-host disease throughout the study period. Overall, AAIT treatment was safe, and might help severely immunosuppressed AIDS patients to achieve a better immune restoration. A further clinical trial with control is necessary to confirm the efficacy of AAIT medication.

Abstract
Chimerism analysis is a well-established method for monitoring the state of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) over time by analyzing peripheral blood or bone marrow samples of the recipient in several malignant and non-malignant hematologic diseases. From a clinical point of view, a continuous monitoring is fundamental for an effective early therapeutic intervention. This paper provides a comparative overview of the main molecular biology techniques which can be used to study chimerism after bone marrow transplantation, focusing on their advantages and disadvantages. According to the examined literature, short tandem repeats (STR) analysis through simple PCR coupled with capillary electrophoresis (STR-PCR) is the most powerful method which guarantees a high power of differentiation between different individuals. However, other methods such as real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR), digital PCR (dPCR), and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology were developed to overcome the technical limits of STR-PCR. In particular, these other techniques guarantee a higher sensitivity, which allows for the detection of chimerism at an earlier stage, hence expanding the window for therapeutic intervention. After a comparative evaluation of the various techniques, it seems clear that STR-PCR still remains the gold standard option for chimerism study, even if it is likely that both dPCR and NGS could supplement or even replace the common methods of STR analysis.

Abstract
In forensic point of view and for genetic study, biological samples collected at a crime scene serve as a significant tool, in order to resolve crimes by identifying the person. In some scenarios, individual identification gets masked by chimera persons, where the chimera person cells will have different DNA. The use of biological traces which are recorded by a person’s touch while handling items raises the chance of forensic study system. Therefore, DNA profiling can be obtained from items that were touched, which inturn becomes an useful means for forensic mode of investigation. Chimerism investigations are recognized processes to examine the condition of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) to analyze peripheral blood and recipient’s bone marrow samples for non-malignant and malignant hematologic diseases. In adults, ectomesenchymal cells identified in oral and maxillofacial tissues are promising for future dental stem cell therapies, because the oral tissues area rich source for stem cells. Dental stem cells have various expressive profiles and exist in specific niches. Apart from these applications, this review article highlights dental stem cells significances in forensic dental investigations.

Abstract
Chimerism refers to the relative proportion of donor and recipient DNA after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and its quantitative follow-up is of great clinical utility in this setting. PCR of short tandem repeats (STR-PCR) constitutes the gold standard method for chimerism quantification, although more sensitive PCR techniques (such as qPCR) have recently arisen. We compared the sensitivity and the quantification capacity of both techniques in patient samples and artificial mixtures and demonstrated adequate performance of both methods, with higher sensitivity of qPCR and better quantification skills of STR-PCR. By qPCR, we then prospectively followed up 57 patients that were in complete chimerism (CC) by STR-PCR. Twenty-seven patients (59%) showed 0.1–1% recipient DNA in the bone marrow. Only 4 patients presented 0.1–1% recipient DNA in peripheral blood (PB), and one of them relapsed. Finally, by qPCR, we retrospectively studied the last sample that showed CC by STR-PCR prior to relapse in 8 relapsed patients. At a median of 59 days prior to relapse, six patients presented mixed chimerism by qPCR in PB. Since both approaches have complementary characteristics, we conclude that different techniques should be applied in different clinical settings and therefore propose a methodological algorithm for chimerism follow-up after HSCT.

Abstract
Chimerism status evaluation is a routine test performed in post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) period. The aim of the study was to evaluate a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method (GenDx, Utrecht, the Netherlands) applicability for this purpose. The study included 74 recipient/donor pairs tested for informative markers: median of four and six informative markers was found for patients (related and unrelated donor, respectively). Higher sensitivity of qPCR method was confirmed by analysis of recipient post-HSCT samples (N = 800) among which microchimerism (0.1%-1% recipient DNA) was detected in 21.8% of cases. The ability to detect less than 1% of minor population, as opposed to the short tandem repeat (STR) method for which 1% is the limit, translated into earlier identification of a disease relapse for four patients in our study sample.

Abstract
Using data obtained from domestic and foreign sources, we formed a set of primers and fluorogenic probes for analyzing twentysix specific sequence polymorphisms and one reference gene. In the course of evaluating the effectiveness of real-time PCR, using the example of one of the markers (S01a), we obtained the optimal amount of DNA per reaction (70 ng), providing a resolution of at least 0.1% of the method with the ability to estimate linear chimerism. Formed panel of primers for genetic polymorphisms - InDel has a high degree of informational content for donor-recipient pairs of Russia. From January 2018 to June 2019, a quantitative assessment of the level of linear (CD3 +, CD34 +) and general chimerism was carried out for 28 patients of the clinic of the Institution. Finally, we analyzed patients who received allografts and present 4 different clinical situations that illustrate the informativity level of this method.

Abstract
Primarily due to recent advances of detection techniques, microchimerism (the proportion of minor variant population is below 1%) has recently gained increasing attention in the field of transplantation. Availability of polymorphic markers, such as deletion insertion or single nucleotide polymorphisms along with a vast array of high sensitivity detection techniques, allow the accurate detection of small quantities of donor- or recipient-related materials. This diagnostic information can improve monitoring of allograft injuries in solid organ transplantations (SOT) as well as facilitate early detection of relapse in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). In the present review, genetic marker and detection platform options applicable for microchimerism detection are discussed. Furthermore, current results of relevant clinical studies in the context of microchimerism and SOT or allo-HSCT respectively are also summarized.

Abstract
The increase of mixed chimerism (MC) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been associated with a high risk of relapse. A variety of techniques that use polymorphic markers have been established to survey hematopoietic chimerism status. The highest sensitivity is achieved using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) analysis of insertion/deletion polymorphism, which allows the detection of disease recurrence and subsequently the earlier initiation of therapeutic intervention. The purpose of this study is the evaluation of multiplex RQ-PCR for MC assessment (six biallelic genetic systems and Y-specific locus), allowing the amplification and detection of target gene of interest and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase reference housekeeping gene in a single microtube. With optimized amounts of primers and probe, the quantification of target DNA was shown to be linear throughout the tested range (100%-0.05%). The efficiencies of multiplex RQ-PCR were in a range of 0.89 to 1.07. The sensitivity of individual systems ranged 0.02% to 0.04% with an average of 0.034%. A high degree of linear correlation between the chimerism results obtained by multiplex RQ-PCR vs singleplex RQ-PCR was observed (P < 0.0001, Spearman's coefficient = 0.9927), while correlation between multiplex RQ-PCR vs short tandem repeat analysis was also statistically significant (P < 0.0001, Spearman's coefficient = 0.9769). This new multiplex RQ-PCR assay is a quick, sensitive, reproducible, and cost-effective method for accurate MC assessment.

Earlier relapse detection after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation by chimerism assays: Digital PCR versus quantitative real-time PCR of insertion/deletion polymorphisms. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0212708. [PMID: 30794643 PMCID: PMC6386495 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0212708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2018] [Accepted: 02/07/2019] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The analysis of molecular haematopoietic chimerisms (HC) has become a well-established method to monitor the transplant evolution and to assess the risk of relapse after allogeneic stem cells transplantation (allo-STC). Different techniques and molecular markers are being used for chimerism surveillance after transplantation, including quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and the recently developed digital PCR (dPCR). This study aims to compare the sensitivity and accuracy of both methods to quantify HC and predict early relapse. Methodology HC was evaluated using custom PCR systems for the specific detection of the Y-chromosome, null alleles and insertion-deletion polymorphisms. A total of 281 samples from 28 adult patients who underwent an allo-SCT were studied. Increasing mixed chimerism was detected prior to relapse in 100% of patients (18 relapses). Results Compared with conventional qPCR amplification, dPCR predicted relapse with a median anticipation period of 63 days versus 45.5 days by qPCR. Overall, 56% of the relapses were predicted earlier with dPCR whereas 38% of the relapses where detected simultaneously using both techniques and only in 1 case, relapse was predicted earlier with qPCR. Conclusions In conclusion, chimerism determination by dPCR constitutes a suitable technique for the follow-up of patients with haematological pathologies after allo-STC, showing greater sensitivity to predict an early relapse.

A set of 14 DIP-SNP markers to detect unbalanced DNA mixtures. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2018; 497:591-596.

Abstract
Unbalanced DNA mixture is still a difficult problem for forensic practice. DIP-STRs are useful markers for detection of minor DNA but they are not widespread in the human genome and having long amplicons. In this study, we proposed a novel type of genetic marker, termed DIP-SNP. DIP-SNP refers to the combination of INDEL and SNP in less than 300bp length of human genome. The multiplex PCR and SNaPshot assay were established for 14 DIP-SNP markers in a Chinese Han population from Shanxi, China. This novel compound marker allows detection of the minor DNA contributor with sensitivity from 1:50 to 1:1000 in a DNA mixture of any gender with 1 ng-10 ng DNA template. Most of the DIP-SNP markers had a relatively high probability of informative alleles with an average I value of 0.33. In all, we proposed DIP-SNP as a novel kind of genetic marker for detection of minor contributor from unbalanced DNA mixture and established the detection method by associating the multiplex PCR and SNaPshot assay. DIP-SNP polymorphisms are promising markers for forensic or clinical mixture examination because they are shorter, widespread and higher sensitive.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Clinical decision making after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is partially based on hematopoietic chimerism analysis. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of polymorphic short tandem repeats (STR-PCR) is currently considered the gold standard for chimerism surveillance after transplantation. Nevertheless, this method has shown several limitations. Emerging technologies such as digital PCR (dPCR) has been applied to detect hematopoietic chimerism. Despite previous reports, the clinical usefulness of dPCR is unclear because the studies were performed in limited patient populations with short follow-ups.
Methods:
In order to compare hematopoietic chimerism detection time and rate, we analyzed 591 samples from 155 patients undergoing gender-mismatched HSCT using STR-PCR and dPCR. We also established the correlation between both methods in artificial DNA mixtures prepared in known proportions and in clinical samples.
Results:
Depending on the artificial DNA mixture analyzed the correlation coefficient between both methods was 0.9946 and 0.9732. The limit of detection for dPCR was 0.01%. Of 157 samples with donor and recipient DNA, mixed chimerism (MC) was detected solely by dPCR in 66 samples. Within the group of patients relapsing after HSCT (n=32) MC was detected earlier in 15 of these patients with dPCR in comparison with STR-PCR. The mean time from MC detection to relapse was 155 days (range: 13–385 days) and 65 days (range: 0–203 days) for dPCR and STR-PCR, respectively.
Conclusions:
dPCR is a sensitive and accurate method for the quantification of hematopoietic chimerism allowing earlier MC detection compared to STR-PCR.

J Forensic Leg Med 2017; 46:30-36. [PMID: 28119211 DOI: 10.1016/j.jflm.2017.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2016] [Revised: 12/23/2016] [Accepted: 01/16/2017] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Samples containing unbalanced DNA mixtures from individuals often occur in forensic DNA examination and clinical detection. Because of the PCR amplification bias, the minor contributor DNA is often masked by the major contributor DNA when using traditional STR or SNP typing techniques. Here we propose a method based in allele-specific Insertion/Deletion (INDEL) genotyping to detect DNA mixtures in forensic samples. Fourteen INDELs were surveyed in the Chinese Han population of Shanxi Province. The INDELs were amplified using two separate primer-specific reactions by real-time PCR. The difference Ct value of the 2 reactions (D-value) were used for determination of the single source DNA. INDELs types and further confirmed by electrophoresis separation. The minor allele frequency (MAF) was above 0.2 in 10 INDELs. The detection limit was 0.3125 ng-1.25 ng template DNA for real-time PCR in all 14 INDEL markers. For single source 10 ng DNA, the average D-value was 0.31 ± 0.14 for LS type, 6.96 ± 1.05 for LL type and 7.20 ± 1.09 for SS type. For the series of simulated DNA mixture, the Ct value varied between the ranges of single source DNA, depending on their INDEL typing and mixture ratios. This method can detect the specific allele of the minor DNA contributor as little as 1:50 in rs397782455 and rs397696936; 1:100 in rs397832665, rs397822382 and rs397897230; the detection limit of the minor DNA contributor was as little as 1:500-1:1000 in the rest INDEL markers, a much higher sensitivity compared with traditional STR typing. The D-value variation depended on the alternation of dilution ratio and INDEL types. When the dilution was 1:1000, the maximum and minimum D-values were 8.84 ± 0.11 in rs397897230 and 4.27 ± 0.19 in rs397897239 for LL and SS type mixture, the maximum and minimum D-values were 9.32 ± 0.54 in rs397897230 and 4.38 ± 0.26 in rs 397897239 for LL(SS) and LS type mixture, separately. Any D-value between 0.86 and 5.11 in the 14 INDELs indicated the presence of mixture. The separate amplification strategy based on real-time PCR provides a promising and convenient method for detection of unbalanced DNA mixture for Chinese Han population.
