Abstract:
Objective In the detection of peripheral blood in patients with gastric cancer the melanoma antigen A1 (MAGEA1) and the melanoma antigen A3 (MAGEA3) gene expression,combined with the conditions of patients with postoperative follow-up analysis MAGE gene expression and the relationship between gastric cancer metastasis and prognosis.Methods Peripheral blood was obtained from 40 patients with gastric carcinoma and 20 patients with benign diseases.The mRNA of the MAGEA1 and MAGEA3 genes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) was detected by RT-PCR,meanwhile the MAGEA1 and MAGEA3 transcripts in gastric carcinoma tissues and corresponding nomal tissue were detected.In contrast with CEA gene,we detected its expression by nested RT-PCR.Results Of the 40 gastric carcinoma patients,MAGEA1 and MAGEA3 mRNA were positive in 47.5％ (17/40) and 25.0％ (10/40) of PBMC,respectively,and in 65.0％ (26/40) and 30.0％ (12/40) of gastric carcinoma tissues,the corresponding paracancerous gastric tissues were not expressed,of which 4 cases of peripheral blood both expression.In the PBMC of 40 gastric carcinoma patients,62.5％ (25/40) samples were detected to express at least one type of MAGE mRNA,the detection of CEA gene mRNA in peripheral blood of the patients in PBMCwas 65.0％ (26/40),20 patients with non neoplastic diseases of PBMC were not detected in the MAGE gene mRNA.There were 22.5％ (9/40) of 40 gastric carcinoma patients with CEA gene expression in PBMC.The detection rate of the MAGE gene of mRNA PBMC in patients with gastric cancer was not related with the lymph node metastasis,TNM stage,and the degree of tumor differentiation,depth of invasion,tumor size,distant metastasis.Conclusion Gastric cancer patients with peripheral blood MAGE gene expression is closely related to the tumor lymph node metastasis,TNM staging,express positive patients with poor prognosis.
