Abstract:
Objective To study the relation between the expression of drug-resistance gene and in vitro drug sensitivity test in ovarian carcinoma and clinical biological behavior.Methods In 60 primarily treated patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma,the expression of COX-2,Connexin43(CX43)and P-gp was detected using flow cytometry.Sensitivity of cells of short term in vitro culture to anticancer drugs was also examined by the game techniques.Remits The expression level of COX-2 was higher in tissue with DDP-resistance patients than those with sensitivity patients but the expression level of CX43 was lower in tissue with DDP-resistance and Taxol-resistanee patients than those with sensitivity patients.The expression level of P-gp was higher in tissue with VP16-resistance patients than those with sensitivity patients.The sensitivity of DDP,Taxol and VP16 was lower in tissue with higher expression of COX-2 and P-gp than those with lower expression of COX-2 and P-gp.The sensitivity of DDP and Taxol was higher in tissue with higher expression of CX43 than those with lower expression of CX43.Conclusion The in vitro sensitivity of some of the drugs is effected by tissues with expression of COX-2,P-gp and CX43.It is not only useful but also individualized treatment for application of sensitive drug test and detecting the expression of COX-2,P-gP and CX43 to increase the response rate of chemotherapy in patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma.
