Abstract:
Objective To explore the levels of serum chemokine in the patients with gastric cancer using cytometric beads array (CBA) and to find out the laboratory evidence for gastric cancer immunotberapy.Methods Forty-five patients with gastric cancer,thirty patients with benign gastric diseases and forty healthy controls were included.The chemokine levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8),regulated upon activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES),monokine induced by IFN-γ (MIG),monocyte ehemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) and interferon-γ induced protein-10 (IP-10) in serum of these three groups were measured using CBA ,then these data were analyzed using BD CBA analysis software.Results The levels of serum chemokines in healthy controls were (176.4±20.7) μg/L for IP-10,(111.3±17.2) μg/L for MCP-1,(503.9±47.2) μg/L for MIG,(472.4±116.7) μg/L for IL-8,respectively.In gastric cancer patients,the levels were (266.6±24.7) μg/L for IP-10,(100.4,70.8-193.5) μg/L for MCP-1,(1614±275.4) μg/L for MIG,(500.0±164.8) μg/L for IL-8.The levels of serum chemokines in patients with benign gastric disease were (207.9±31.7) μg/L for IP-10,(121.2±23.6) μg/L for MCP-1,(514.5±63.0) μg/L for MIG,(480.2±134.8) μg/L for IL-8,respectively.The levels of IP-10 and MIG among these three groups were significantly different (IP-10:F = 3.52,P < 0.05,MIG:F = 9.27,P < 0.01).The levels of IP-10 were elevated in the cancer patients compared with healthy controls (P < 0.05),while the levels of MIG were elevated significantly in the cancer patients compared with healthy controls and benign disease controls(t=3.29,P < 0.01,t=2.84,P<0.01).Conclusions CBA is a novel method with convenience,sensitivity and accuracy for the detection of serum ehemokines.The concentration of IP-10 and MIG in gastric cancer patients are elevated,indicating its implication in cancer pathogenesis and metastasis.Measurement of serum chemokines will lay the groundwork for therapeutic strategy in gastric cancer by inhibiting and anti-chemokine.
