A risk-based approach for detection of recurrent CIN

Fujirebio
25 Apr 2024

Utilizing HPV genotyping and DNA methylation analysis can aid in distinguishing between women requiring re-treatment and those who can be managed conservatively, reducing unnecessary interventions and associated obstetric complications. The incorporation of HPV testing post-treatment has shown to be both safe and cost-effective, enhancing the accuracy of post-treatment surveillance and providing insights in vaccination benefit for treated women. Rebecca Millecamps from Fujirebio discusses the need for effective post-treatment surveillance strategies for women treated for CIN2/3 to detect recurrent lesions and prevent overtreatment, considering the persistent risk of cervical cancer. Additionally, DNA methylation testing is highlighted as a promising approach for detecting recurrent CIN after treatment, particularly for identifying residual lesions in need of re-treatment.

DNA / RNA Extraction and PurificationPurified DNA and RNA are required for numerous downstream molecular biology applications. Consequently, the importance of high-quality DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment cannot be underestimated. Many purification kits are available and are typically optimized for nucleic acid type and source, including plasmid DNA, genomic DNA, mRNA, RNA and viral nucleic acid purification kits. Automated extraction and purification of nucleic acids can be implemented with magnetic bead separator instruments or high-throughput purification workstations. Find the best DNA/RNA extraction and purification equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :DNA / RNA QuantificationDetection and quantification of nucleic acids is important in molecular biology, cloning, expression, forensics and clinical diagnostics. Nucleic acids can be detected by labeling with colorimetric, fluorescent or radio labels and using in situ hybridization kits to identify specific sequences. Multiple nucleic acids can be detected and quantified at once using RNA / DNA detection beads or RNA / DNA microarrays.
