Abstract:
Objective:To detect expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNA in gastric adenocarcinoma and evaluate its function in carcinogenesis, progression, infiltration, and metastasis, as well as the correlation of these proteins. Methods:The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs was detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in gastric adenocarcinoma and normal gastric mucosa. Results:The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs was obviously higher in gastric adenocarcinoma than in normal gastric mucosa (P<0.01). The expression of SNCG mRNA was closely correlated with tumor infiltration depth (P<0.05) and lymph node metas-tasis (P<0.01). The expression of CXCR4 mRNA closely correlated with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01). The expression of SNCG and CXCR4 mRNAs positively correlated in 29 cases of gastric adenocarcinoma (r=0.346, P<0.05). Conclusion:SNCG and CXCR4 may be overexpressed in tumor tissue and may have important functions in tumorigenesis, progression, infiltration, and metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma.
