Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical significance of determination of 20S proteasomal activities changes in circulating white blood cells (WBC) in patients with advanced gastric carcinoma.MethodsThe 20S proteasomal activities in circulating WBC separated from 80 patients with advanced gastric carcinoma were determined by 20S proteasome assay kit; the concentrations of interleukin-6(IL-6) in plasma were determined by radioimmunoassay method.The result was compared with that of 11 healthy volunteers.ResultsThe proteasomal activities in circulating WBC[(38.26 ±9.23),(101.85 ±27.63)pmol AMC/ ( s *mg pro) ] and concentrations of IL-6 [ (23.89 ± 6.76),(72.52 ± 20.71 ) ng/L ] of healthy volunteers and the patients with advanced gastric carcinoma had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.01 ).The proteasomal activities and the concentration of IL-6 were correlated with age,pathological type,weight changes,Karnofsky score and disease severe degree(P ＜ 0.01 );while they had no relationship with sex(P ＞ 0.05).Cox's proportional hazard regression model demonstrated that pathological type,Karnofsky score and proteasomal activities were the independent risk factors affecting the survival of patients with advanced gastric carcinoma (P ＜0.01 or ＜0.05).20S proteasomal activities and the concentration of IL-6 had positive correlation (r =0.691,P =0.000).ConclusionsThe proteasomal activites in circulating WBC and the concentration of IL-6 in plasma increase and are correlated with age,pathological type,weight changes,Karnofsky score and disease severe degree.Proteasomal activities in circulating WBC can be used as the prognostic reference factor of advanced gastric carcinoma.20S proteasomal activities and the concentration of IL-6 have positive correlation.
