Development of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for the rapid detection of six common respiratory viruses.

ABSTRACT: Due to the highly contagious and spreads quickly of respiratory infectious diseases (ADR), the availability of rapid, sensitive, and reliable diagnostic methods is essential for disease control. Here, we develop an approach based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for the detection of influenza A virus (Flu A), Flu A subtypes H1N1and H3N2, influenza B virus (Flu B), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) subtypes A and B, human adenovirus (HAdV), parainfluenza virus (PIV) subtypes 1 and 3, and human rhinovirus (HRV) simultaneously. We designed primers specific to detect respiratory viruses above, optimized the RT-LAMP assay and evaluated it for its sensitivity and specificity of detection using real-time monitoring based on SYBR Green I. We also evaluated the result of our RT-LAMP assay on 638 nasopharyngeal swab specimens with the commercial RT-PCR by Cohen's Kappa. The inconsistent results were verified by Sanger sequencing furtherly. The developed RT-LAMP assay displayed a detection limit of 1 × 10² copies/ml RNA close to that of RT-PCR; no cross-reactivity was observed in the 10 kinds of viruses studied. The results obtained with 638 clinical samples indicate that the developed method has high specificity (0.988-1) and sensitivity (0.863-1) for viruses studied, and the Kappa value of all viruses was more than 0.85 revealed an excellent agreement between the two methods. We developed an RT-LAMP-based method and optimized for the detection of common respiratory viruses. It may be a powerful tool for rapid and reliable clinical diagnosis of ADR in primary hospitals.

Rapid detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae by loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay.

Project description:To improve the diagnosis and treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) infection and reduce the misuse of antibiotics, we sought to establish a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of Mp.Six primers specific for the Mp P1 gene were designed, and the LAMP method was used to rapidly detect Mp. The sensitivity of the LAMP method was determined by serial dilution of the standard Mp strain FH (standard strains of Mycoplasma pneumoniae). Specificity was assessed with 17 common pathogenic microorganisms in the respiratory tract. Patient samples were collected from the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine at the 307th Hospital of Chinese People's Liberation Army from March 2016 to May 2017, examined prospectively, and compared with diagnosis by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).The LAMP assay for Mp detection can be completed within 60?minutes. The minimum detection limit was 39?pg/?L, and no cross-reaction was observed with 17 common respiratory tract pathogens. Of the 125 clinical specimens tested, 43 cases were positive by LAMP assay, and 40 cases were positive by qRT-PCR (P?=?.162). All 43 samples determined as positive by LAMP test were confirmed to be Mp by Mp P1 protein sequencing.The LAMP assay is suitable for rapid detection of Mp. It has high sensitivity and specificity, and the detection results are not inferior to those of qRT-PCR.

Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for Rapid Detection of Hepatitis C virus.

Project description:Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major public health problem and a leading cause of chronic liver disease. An estimated 180 million people are infected worldwide. In this study, we developed a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of HCV genomic RNA and compared the sensitivity of LAMP with nested-PCR. A total of 30 blood samples from HCV-infected patients were analyzed with six primers targeting conserved sequences of the HCV 5'UTR within 70 min, under isothermal conditions at 62 °C. Then, visualized by gel electrophoresis with ethidium bromide staining and detected by the naked-eye after adding SYBR Green I. All samples positive for HCV by nested PCR were confirmed by LAMP method. When visualized by gel electrophoresis and ethidium bromide staining, the HCV LAMP assay products appeared in a ladder pattern, with many bands of different sizes. The HCV LAMP product could also be detected by the naked-eye after adding SYBR Green I to the reaction tube and observing a color change from orange to green in positive samples. The HCV LAMP had the same sensitivity as a nested-PCR assay, the detection limit for the both systems were found to be 10 copies/mL of HCV RNA. The LAMP assay reported here is superior for rapid amplification, simple operation, and easy detection and will be useful for rapid and reliable clinical diagnosis of HCV in areas with limited resources, such as developing countries.

Reverse-transcription, loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for the sensitive and rapid detection of H10 subtype avian influenza viruses.

Project description:The H10 subtype avian influenza viruses (H10N4, H10N5 and H10N7) have been reported to cause disease in mammals, and the first human case of H10N8 subtype avian influenza virus was reported in 2013. Recently, H10 subtype avian influenza viruses (AIVs) have been followed more closely, but routine diagnostic tests are tedious, less sensitive and time consuming, rapid molecular detection assays for H10 AIVs are not available.Based on conserved sequences within the HA gene of the H10 subtype AIVs, specific primer sets of H10 subtype of AIVs were designed and assay reaction conditions were optimized. A reverse-transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was established for the rapid detection of H10 subtype AIVs. The specificity was validated using multiple subtypes of AIVs and other avian respiratory pathogens, and the limit of detection (LOD) was tested using concentration gradient of in vitro-transcribed RNA.The established assay was performed in a water bath at 63 °C for 40 min, and the amplification result was visualized directly as well as under daylight reflections. The H10-RT-LAMP assay can specifically amplify H10 subtype AIVs and has no cross-reactivity with other subtypes AIVs or avian pathogens. The LOD of the H10-RT-LAMP assay was 10 copies per ?L of in vitro-transcribed RNA.The RT-LAMP method reported here is demonstrated to be a potentially valuable means for the detection of H10 subtype AIV and rapid clinical diagnosis, being fast, simple, and low in cost. Consequently, it will be a very useful screening assay for the surveillance of H10 subtype AIVs in underequipped laboratories as well as in field conditions.

Reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for rapid detection of Bovine Rotavirus.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Bovine rotavirus (BRV) infection is common in young calves. This viral infection causes acute diarrhea leading to death. Rapid identification of infected calves is essential to control BRV successfully. Therefore development of simple, highly specific, and sensitive detection method for BRV is needed. RESULTS: A reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assay was developed and optimized for rapid detection of BRV. Specific primer sets were designed to target the sequences of the VP6 gene of the neonatal calf diarrhea virus (NCDV) strain of BRV. The RT-LAMP assay was performed in a water bath for 60 minutes at 63°C, and the amplification products were visualized either directly or under ultraviolet light. This BRV specific RT-LAMP assay could detect 3.32 copies of subtype A BRV. No cross-reactions were detected with other bovine pathogens. The ability of RT-LAMP to detect bovine rotavirus was further evaluated with 88 bovine rectal swab samples. Twenty-nine of these samples were found to be positive for BRV using RT-LAMP. The BRV-specific-RT-LAMP results were also confirmed by real-time RT-PCR assay. CONCLUSIONS: The bovine rotavirus-specific RT-LAMP assay was highly sensitive and holds promise as a prompt and simple diagnostic method for the detection of group A bovine rotavirus infection in young calves.

Development of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for rapid detection of capripoxviruses.

Project description:Sheep pox (SP), goat pox (GP), and lumpy skin disease (LSD), caused by capripoxviruses (CaPVs), are economically important diseases of sheep, goats, and cattle, respectively. Here, we report the development of a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid detection of CaPVs. LAMP primers were designed to target a conserved gene encoding the poly(A) polymerase small subunit (VP39) of CaPVs. Hydroxynaphthol blue (HNB) was incorporated to monitor assay progress by color change from violet when negative to sky blue when positive, and results were verified by agarose gel electrophoresis. The LAMP assay was shown to be highly specific for CaPVs, with no apparent cross-reactivity to other related viruses (near neighbors) or viruses that cause similar clinical signs (look-a-like viruses). The performance of LAMP was compared to that of a highly sensitive quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assay. LAMP and qPCR exhibited similar analytical sensitivities, with limits of detection of 3 and 8 viral genome copies, respectively. Diagnostic specificity was assessed on 36 negative specimens, including swabs and EDTA blood from control sheep, goats, and cattle. Diagnostic sensitivity was assessed on 275 specimens, including EDTA blood, swabs, and tissues from experimentally infected sheep, goats, and cattle. Overall agreement on diagnostic test results between the two assays was 90 to 95% for specificity and 89 to 100% for sensitivity. The LAMP assay described in this report is simple to use, inexpensive, highly sensitive, and particularly well suited for the diagnosis of capripox in less well equipped laboratories and in rural settings where resources are limited.

Rapid and Sensitive Detection of Didymella bryoniae by Visual Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay.

Project description:Didymella bryoniae is a pathogenic fungus that causes gummy stem blight (GSB) in Cucurbitaceae crops (e.g., cantaloupe, muskmelon, cucumber, and watermelon). GSB produces lesions on the stems and leaves, and can also be spread by seeds. Here, we developed a rapid, visual, and sensitive loop-mediated amplification (LAMP) assay for D. bryoniae detection based on sequence-characterized amplified regions (GenBank accession nos GQ872461 and GQ872462) common to the two random amplification of polymorphic DNA group genotypes (RGI and RGII) of D. bryoniae; ideal conditions for detection were optimized for completion in 45 min at 63°C. The sensitivity and specificity of the LAMP assay were further analyzed in comparison with those of a conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The sensitivity of the LAMP assay was 1000-fold higher than that of conventional PCR with a detection limit of 0.1 fg μL(-1) of targeted DNA. The LAMP assay could be accomplished in about 45 min, with the results visible to the naked eye. The assay showed high specificity in discriminating all D. bryoniae isolates from seven other fungal pathogens that occur in Cucurbitaceae crops. The LAMP assay also detected D. bryoniae infection in young muskmelon leaves with suspected early symptoms of GSB disease. Hence, the technique has great potential for developing rapid and sensitive visual detection methods for the D. bryoniae pathogen in crops and seeds. This method has potential application in early prediction of disease and reducing the risk of epidemics.

Rapid detection of <i>Heterobasidion annosum</i> using a loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay.

Project description:Heterobasidion annosum is one of the most aggressive pathogens of Pinus forests in Europe, causing considerable economic losses. To detect H. annosum for disease diagnosis and control, we developed a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) reaction with a primer set designed from the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) DNA sequences of H. annosum. In our study, this LAMP assay was found to be capable of efficiently amplifying the target gene within 60 min at 63°C. In specificity tests, H. annosum was positively detected, and other species were negative. The detection limit of this assay was found to be 100 pg·μL-1, and the assay was also successfully tested for use with basidiospore suspensions and wood samples. This study provides a rapid method for diagnosing root and butt rot caused by H. annosum, which will be of use in port surveillance of logs imported from Europe.
