• testing on cloned model plasmids for each SNP variant using the LightCylcer 480 (Roche) and the Universal Master Mix (Applied Biosystems) supplemented with 5mM MgCl2 • use of DNA from cell lines or patients with known SNP-status as positive controls for each variant • validation of system 3 (with SNP at position 3 of the up-stream probe) on DNA samples from 30 patients with known SNP status (sequenced at AJ Innuscreen, Berlin) • parallel determination of SNP status in patient DNA samples originating from tumor tissue, whole blood and leukocytes (isolated by standard protocols) • SNP analysis on DNA (50-100ng per reaction) from leukocytes of 99 patients with clear-cell RCC • comparison with SNP data from 116 healthy controls (data from the HapMap study) • calculation of Odds ratios for different SNP variant as indicator of an increased chance to develop RCC • Results 2 • analysis of DNA from 99 patients with primary clear cell RCC • median age: 65 yrs (37-83 yrs), 62 male & 37 female • SNP-distribution in clear cell RCC: 22.2 % CC / 55.6 % CT / 22.2 % TT • first comparison with data from 116 healthy controls from the HapMap-study • (CEU - people from Utah with ancestry from northern & western Europe): • 19.0 % CC / 46.6 % CT / 34.5 % TT • comparison of CT vs. TT: OR = 1.85  prevalence for RCC • next steps: • analysis of more ccRCC patients • analysis of matched healthy controls with this assay • dependence on tumor stage / grade / outcome • haplotype analysis of further VEGF-promoter SNPs http://urologie.uniklinikum-dresden.de / susanne.fuessel@uniklinikum-dresden.de
