RESUMO
Objective:To study the differential expression of VEGF, SDF-1 and CXCR4 in colorectal cancer tissue and paracancerous tissues, and analyze the correlation between the three and the clinic pathological parameters of gastric cancer;to investigate the significance of the expression of VEGF,SDF-1 and CXCR4 in the progression of colorectal cancer.Methods:Immuno-histochemistry streptavidin-biotin complex( SABC) method and real-time Q-PCR were used to detect the operation resection of colorectal carcinoma and tumor-adjacent specimens of SDF-1,CXCR4 and VEGF expression.Results: On the mRNA level,compared with the adjacent tissues,the expression of SDF-1, CXCR4 and VEGF in colorectal cancer tissues was significant higher .The IHC′s results indicate that the positive rate of SDF-1,CXCR4 and VEGF in colorectal cancer were 78.7%,60% and 66.3%,the positive rate of adjacent tissues was 37.5%,42.5% and 28.8%, and there was statistically significant between expression and carcinoma adjacent tissue differences( P<0.05).There was statistically significant difference in the expression of SDF-1 with tumor metastasis,lymph node metastasis,TNM staging(P<0.05-P<0.01),while had no difference with gender,size and depth of invasion.There was statistically sig-nificant difference in the expression of CXCR4 with node metastasis,TNM in tumor staging ( P<0.05-P<0.01).It showed a significant negative correlation in SDF-1 expression and CXCR4,VEGF expression(P<0.01).Conclusion: It has a certain relationship between biological characteristics and SDF-1, CXCR4 and VEGF expression in colorectal cancer tissues.These results indicate that the expression of SDF-1,CXCR4 and VEGF play an important role in the tumorigenesis,progression,invasion and metastasis of colorectal cancer.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the relationship between the expressions of Twist and clinical pathological parameters in gastric carcinoma,to explore its significance in judging the prognosis of patients,and to analyze the expression of Twist proteins in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenomenon.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of Twist and EMT relative proteins E-cad,N-cad in 120 cases of gastric carcinoma specimens and corresponding adjacent normal tissue.Analysis The relationship between Twist expression and clinical pathological parameters,and the Twist expression and E-cad,N-cad were analyzed.Results In gastric carcinoma,Twist,E-cad,N-cad positive rates were 59.1％(71/120),36.6 ％ (44/120) and 47.5 ％ (57/120),and in adjacent tissues,the positive rate were 17.5 ％ (21/120),93.3 ％ (112/120) and 11.6 ％ (14/120).There were significant differences in each index between tumor tissues and adjacent tissues (P ＜ 0.05).Patients with Twist positive expression showed higher incidence rates of lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.05) and distant metastasis (P ＜ 0.05) than those with Twist negative expression.The expression of Twist was significantly correlated in gastric carcinoma accompanied by low expression of E-cad and abnormal high N-cad expression (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Compared with the adjacent tissue,the expression of Twist,E-cad and N-cad have significant differences,and the expression of Twist was closely related to the biological characteristics in gastric carcinoma.The expression of Twist in gastric cancer have negative correlation with the EMT relative factor E-cad,while positive correlation with the N-cad.
