Abstract:
Objective To investigate mutations of oncogene K-ras in colorectal cancer tissues and the relationship between mutations of K-ras and clinicopathological characteristics in colorectal cancer.Methods Specimens of 90 patients with colorectal cancer were detected K-ras gene by direct sequencing.Then satistical analysis were used to analyzed the associations between K-ras mutation status and clinicopathological characteristics in colorectal cancer.Results 31 cases were detected mutation in 90 cases of colorectal cancer specimens.The total mutation rate of K-ras was 34.4 %.There were 21 eases of single mutation occurred in codon 12.One case had double mutation in codon 12.9 cases mutation were occurred in codon 13.There were significant difference between K-ras mutation rate and the location of tumor (P =0.042).The frequency of 12/13 codon mutation was no correlated with age,gender,tumor size,dukes stage,hepatic metastases,location of tumor.Conclusion The rate of K-ras mutation is correlated with the location of tumor.
