General information

The SALSA MS-MLPA Probemix ME053-A1 BRCA1-BRCA2-RAD51C is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of methylation status of one or more sequences of the BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51C genes.

BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51C are tumour suppressor genes that participate in DNA repair processes and genome integrity maintenance. Germline deleterious variants in these genes have been extensively described in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer patients, contributing to increased risks of developing the disease. Previous studies have also identified aberrant promoter methylation levels in BRCA1 and RAD51C genes, proposing a new mechanism of gene inactivation in early-onset breast and/or ovarian cancer (Hansmann et al. 2012, Evans et al. 2018). Furthermore, somatic methylation of BRCA1 and BRCA2 may result in reduced gene expression levels and contribute to tumorigenesis and development of sporadic breast/ovarian cancer (Esteller et al. 2000, Bosviel et al. 2011, Stordal et al. 2013). Moreover, promoter hypermethylation of BRCA1, BRCA2 and RAD51C genes has been described in triple-negative breast cancer and epithelial ovarian carcinomas, and it can guide effective therapeutic interventions with PARP inhibitors and serve as markers of therapy response (Veeck et al. 2010, Cunningham et al. 2014, Pennington et al. 2014, Sahnane et al. 2020, Menghi et al. 2022).

Positive samples

Inclusion of a positive sample is usually not required, but can be useful for the analysis of your experiments. MRC Holland has very limited access to positive samples and cannot supply such samples. We recommend using positive samples from your own collection. Alternatively, you can use positive samples from an online biorepository, such as the Coriell Institute.

See this support article for commercially available positive samples that can be used with this product.
