Expression and significance of SDF-1/CXCR4 and VEGF in colorectal adenocar-cinoma / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

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.
