We designed a novel multiplex in-cell reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method for the simultaneous detection and differentiation of p190 and p210 BCR-ABL mRNAs within single cells from the human chronic myeloid leukemia and Philadelphia positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Human K562 chronic myeloid leukemia and SUP B-15 Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell lines were used as positive controls for p210 and p190 BCR-ABL mRNAs, respectively. HL60 cell line was used as a negative control. After the leukemia cells were fixed and permeabilized, without extracting nucleic acids, the mRNAs were reverse transcribed to cDNAs, and the cDNAs were amplified by multiplex polymerase chain reaction with fluorescent primers specific for p190 and p210 BCR-ABL mRNAs. After transfer onto glass slides by cytospin, the amplified cells were detected by fluorescence microscopy. Fluorescence microscopy after propidium iodide or 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindone counterstaining showed that the positive K562 cells exhibited a yellow-green fluorescent cytoplasm around a red nucleus, and that the positive SUP B-15 cells exhibited an orange cytoplasm around a blue nucleus. Only the red or blue nucleus was visible in respective negative HL60 cells. The specificity of amplification was confirmed by the absence of a signal when control experiments were performed either with RNase digestion of mRNA or without reverse transcriptase/Taq polymerase. We conclude that the multiplex in-cell reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method is capable of simultaneously detecting and differentiating the p210 and p190 BCR-ABL mRNAs of chronic myeloid leukemia and Philadelphia-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells, and that it may be useful in quantitatively monitoring the minimal residual disease during therapy.
