474. Multiplex quantification of 19 GM soybean lines using digital PCRAmadej Jelenčič, Dejan Štebih, Tina Demšar, David Dobnik, 2026, independent scientific component part or a chapter in a monograph Abstract: The European Union (EU) imposes strict regulations on the presence of genetically modified (GM) material in food and feed, requiring thorough testing of samples for various GM lines. Although traditional quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) methods are sensitive and robust, they are not cost-effective for managing large numbers of GM events due to their limited multiplexing capabilities. Conversely, digital PCR (dPCR) is capable of robust quantitative multiplexing in addition to other benefits such as absolute quantification and better tolerance of PCR inhibitors. In this context, we present a protocol for multiplex quantification of 19 GM soybean lines using dPCR as an improvement over the currently used simplex qPCR approach. This method enables simple and robust quantification of common GM soybean lines with a relatively low number of reactions.

479. In vitro evaluation of electrochemotherapy combined with sotorasib in pancreatic carcinoma cell lines harboring distinct kras mutationsTanja Jesenko, Maša Omerzel, Tina Živič, Gregor Serša, Maja Čemažar, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: Pancreatic cancer is among the deadliest malignancies, with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Novel strategies are therefore urgently needed. Sotorasib, a KRAS G12C-specific inhibitor, offers targeted treatment for a small subset of patients with this mutation. Electrochemotherapy (ECT), which enhances the cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents through electroporation-induced membrane permeabilization, has shown promise in various tumor types, including deep-seated malignancies such as pancreatic cancer. Combining ECT with sotorasib may potentiate antitumor effects in KRAS G12C-mutated pancreatic cancer; however, preclinical data on such combinations are lacking. This proof-of-concept study evaluated the cytotoxic effects of ECT using bleomycin (BLM) or cisplatin (CDDP) in combination with sotorasib in KRAS G12C-mutated MIA PaCa-2 and KRAS G12D-mutated PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cell lines. ECT alone significantly reduced cell viability, particularly in MIA PaCa-2 cells, where electric pulses induced approximately 75% cell death. Combining ECT with sotorasib resulted in an additive effect on KRAS G12C-mutated MIA PaCa-2 cells, though no synergy was observed, likely due to the high intrinsic sensitivity to electric pulses. These results support the potential of combining physical and molecular therapies in a subset of pancreatic cancer patients and lay the groundwork for further in vivo studies to optimize treatment parameters and explore clinical translatability.
