ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation between serum adipokines and cytokines levels in obese patients with colon cancer.Methods 53 patients with obese colon cancer treated in our hospital from January 2011 to June 2013 were selected as the observation group and at the same time 51 cases of non-obese colon cancer were selected as the control group.TNF-α,IGF-1,VEGF and adipokines levels were measured in the two groups.Results The IGF-1 level in the stage A-B and the stage C-D of the ob-servation group was significantly increased compared with the same stages of the control group (P <0.05).The TNF-α,IGF-1 and VEGF levels in the stage C-D of the observation group were significantly higher than those in the stage A-B (P <0.05 ),the TNF-αand VEGF levels in the stage C-D of the control group were significantly increased compared with the stage A-B (P <0.05).The visfatin and leptin levels in the stage A-B of the observation group were significantly increased compared with the same stages of the control group (P <0.05),the visfatin,resistin and leptin levels in the stage stage C-D of the observation group were significantly increased compared with the same stages of the control group (P <0.05).Visfatin was positively correlated with IGF-1 and VEGF (P <0.05),resistin was positively correlated with IGF-1 (P <0.05 ),leptin was positively correlated with TNF-α, IGF-1 and VEGF (P <0.05).Conclusion Obvious lipid metabolism and cellular cytokines disorders exist in obese colon cancer, their disorder level could promote the progression of colon cancer.
