Abstract:
Objective To explore the expressions and clinical value of angiopoietin like protein 1 (Ang-1)and angiopoietin like protein 2 (Ang-2)in patients with gastric cancer.Methods 65 patients with gastric cancer and 50 healthy subjects for con-trol group were collected from June in 2012 to December in 2014.The level of Ang-1 and Ang-2 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The results were compared.Results Compared with control group (19.8±2.1 μg/L),the level of Ang-1 in patients with gastric cancer (19.8±2.1 μg/L)was no statistics difference (P >0.05),but Ang-2 (2.3±0.8 μg/L)was significantly higher than those of healthy subjects (0.8±0.2 μg/L,t=2.50,P <0.01).There was no significant difference of Ang-2 level in different pathological types of gastric cancer (P >0.05).The level of Ang-2 in TNM stage Ⅲ~Ⅳ (2.6±0.5 μg/L)was obviously higher than that in stage.Ⅰ~Ⅱ (1.6±0.4 μg/L).Ang-2 levels were signif-icantly higher in patients with lymph node metastasis (2.7±0.5 μg/L)or postoperative recurrence after one year (2.0±0.6μg/L)than those without lymph node metastasis (1.6 ± 0.5 μg/L)or postoperative recurrence (1.2 ± 0.5 μg/L,P <0.05).The level of Ang-2 in gastric cancer was significantly positive correlated with tumor stage and lymph node metastasis (r=0.31 and 0.33 respectively,P <0.01).Conclusion Ang-2 level was significantly increased in gastric cancer.Its level was significantly correlated with tumor stage,lymph node metastasis and prognosis,which has important application value for the cancer progression,clinical observation and prognosis evaluation of gastric cancer.
