An MSRE-Assisted Glycerol-Enhanced RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a Method for Methylation Detection

The HGRC method exhibits excellent performance in the detection of a CNE2-specific methylation locus with a (limit of detection) LOD of 100 aM and a linear range of 100 aM to 100 fM. It also responds well to different methylation levels and is capable of distinguishing methylation levels as low as 0.1%. Moreover, this method can distinguish NPC cells from normal cells by detecting methylation in cellular genomes. This method provides a rapid and sensitive approach for NPC detection and also holds good application prospects for other cancers and diseases featuring DNA methylation as a biomarker.
