Abstract

AbstractThe study aimed to develop a quantitative colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique using the phenol red indicator (QLAMP-PhR) for detecting Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) levels in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and healthy individuals. QLAMP-PhR assays were conducted on 251 stool samples specific for the Fn FadA gene. Six primers were synthesized and utilized with master mix reagents, and a phenol red indicator was employed to enhance the QLAMP-PhR technique. A standard quantitative analysis curve was generated using a logarithmic function (absorbance vs. concentration) by serially diluting the copy number of genomic DNA templates (Fn ATCC25586). The CRC group exhibited a significantly higher abundance of Fn compared to the healthy control group (P < 0.001). These findings suggest that the QLAMP-PhR technique effectively identifies Fn specifically by its gene for the key virulence factor FadA. Additionally, ideas for developing a real-time QLAMP-PhR test were presented. Compared to the traditional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, QLAMP-PhR offers several advantages including rapidity, simplicity, specificity, sensitivity, and cost-effectiveness method that can quantitatively screen for Fn presence in normal populations. The QLAMP-PhR method represents a sensitive and specific amplification assay for the rapid detection of the Fn pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to report the application of QLAMP-PhR for detecting FadA in Fn.
