ABSTRACT
Objective To study the insulin‐like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)‐2 and IGFBP‐6 expression and clini‐cal significance in colorectal adenomas .Methods A collection of Chengde Medical College Hospital from July 2012 to March 2013 after surgical treatment of colorectal cancer confirmed by pathology (colorectal cancer ,CRC) tissue samples of 50 patients ,colorec‐tal adenomas (colorectal adenoma ,CRA) 50 cases ,20 cases of colorectal normal mucosa .Immunohistochemistry and RT‐PCR were used to detect the expression of IGFBP‐2 and IGFBP‐6 protein and mRNA ,combined with clinical and pathological data were statis‐tically analyzed .Results IGFBP‐2 protein positive expression and the amount of mRNA expression in the CRA group compared with normal colorectal mucosa had a rising trend;While compared with CRC group had a tendency to reduce ,and the differences are obvious statistical significance (P0 .05) ,but with the degree of hyperplasia had sig‐nificant statistical difference(P<0 .05);In the CRA group ,IGFBP‐2 and IGFBP‐6 expression were negatively related to each other , and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Colorectal adenomas in normal colorectal mucosa of colorec‐tal cancer to the middle part of the transformation process ,and in its occurrence and development process ,insulin‐like growth factor family (IGFs) and IGFS‐R axis plays an important and irreplaceable role ,so IGFBP‐2 ,IGFBP‐6 may be used as diagnostic colorectal adenomas and early predictors of prognosis ,clinical studies on colorectal adenomas is important .
ABSTRACT
Purpose To investigate the expression of IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 in co1orecta1 cancer,and to exp1ore the c1inica1 significance in co1orecta1 cancer. Methods IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 were detected by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR in 50 cases of co1orecta1 cancer(experimenta1 group)and 50 cases of the adjacent mucosa(contro1 group). Results (1)In the experimenta1 group,the ex-pression 1eve1 of IGF-Ⅱprotein and mRNA was significant1y higher than the contro1 group. The expression 1eve1s of IGF-Ⅱprotein and mRNA in co1orecta1 cancer were significant1y 1ower than the contro1 group.(2)The expression 1eve1s of IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 were sig-nificant1y different between different tumor infi1tration depth,1ymph node metastasis,invasion depth and Duke’s stages( P0. 05). Conclusions There is a obvious corre1a-tion between of IGF-Ⅱ and IGFBP-6 in c1inica1 patho1ogica1 parameters in co1orecta1 cancer. Combined detection of the two markers may be the bio1ogica1 indicators of occurrence and prognosis of co1orecta1 cancer,and provide a new scheme for diagnosis and treatment of co1orecta1 cancer.
