Objective:to study ADAM23,MIMT1,FAM150B,GRIN2A,LRRC4 DNA methylation feature while nasopharyngeal epithe-lium canceration. Methods:Totally 12 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 10 patients with nasopharyngitis were chose as the research objects. Nasopharyngeal tissue DNA was extracted and was used to specifically identify 5-methyl cytosine antibody immune precipitation DNA. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect the contents of five genes respectively. Non 5-methyl cytosine antibody(non MeDIP-qPCR experiment) and nonspecific antibody IgG immune precipitation were set up as dual controls. Results:Regardless of the patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma or nasopharyngitis,methylation was not detected in five genes when using nonspecific antibody IgG experiment. Non MeDIP-qPCR experiment showed that there was no difference in fluorescence quan-titative value of five genes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and nasopharyngitis(P >0.05). MeDIP-qPCR experiment showed that all five genes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma presented significant methylation. Corrected values of real-time fluorescence quantification of ADAM23,MIMT1,FAM150B,GRIN2A,LRRC45 were 3.39±2.28,6.03±3.93,3.68±1.81,7.12±3.17,3.10±1.94 in nasopharyn-geal carcinoma and were 0.00±0.00,0.01±0.01,0.25±0.49,0.20±0.20,0.00±0.00 in nasopharyngitis(all P < 0.01). Conclusion:ADAM23,MIMT1,FAM150B,GRIN2A,LRRC4 gene methylation are important characteristics of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
