Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the expressions of maspin gene in colorectal membrane,and their roles in the occurrence,progression,metastasis and prognosis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemistry technique was used to detect the expression of maspin in tissues of normal controls,adenoma,colorectal adenocarcinoma primary tumor,liver metastasis,lymph-node metastasis respectively.Results The expressions of maspin in normal controls,adenoma and colorectal adenocarcinoma primary tumor are down-regulated successively; the expression of maspin in colorectal adenocarcinoma with metastasis is lower than that in colorectal adenocarcinoma without metastasis(P＜0.05) ; the down-regulation of maspin expression is significantly correlated with the depth of invasion,differentiation,liver metastasis and lymph node metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma(P＜0.01,P＜0.05,P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Conclusion The down-regulation of expression of maspin probably plays an important role in the occurrence,progression and metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.maspin is probable a predictive index for reflecting the metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma and provide a clue for early diagnosis of metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma.
