Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical significances of CD14bright CD16bright cell subset in pe-ripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer (GC). Methods The CD14bright CD16bright cells in peripheral blood samples collected from 124 patients with gastric cancer ( GC), 130 patients with chronic gastritis (CG) and 80 normal healthy controls (HC) were measured by using flow cytometry. Differences in the CD14bright CD16bright cells between different groups were analyzed with the Mann-Whitney U test. The feasibili-ty of using CD14bright CD16bright cells as a potential biomarker for differentiating GC patients from CG was as-sessed by using the receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curve analysis. Correlations between the CD14bright CD16bright cells and clinicopathologic parameters of GC were analyzed with multivariate correlation analysis. Results The percentages of CD14bright CD16bright cells in peripheral blood samples and in CD14bright monomuclear cells collected from the patients with GC [median: 0. 38% (0. 23% -0. 52% ) and 6. 61%(4. 23% -9. 56% )] were significantly higher than those of the CG and HC groups [ median: 0. 11%(0. 07% -0. 15% ) and 5. 08% (3. 35% -6. 42% ); median: 0. 05% (0. 03% -0. 07% ) and 5. 09%(4. 20% -7. 40% )] (P<0. 01). The area under the ROC curve for CD14bright CD16bright cells in the peripher-al blood was 0. 934 (95% CI: 0. 900-0. 968) indicating that the value of CD14bright CD16bright cells in the di-agnosis of GC was much higher than that of alpha fetoprotein (AFP), cacino-embryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen CA199. The area under the ROC curve for combined multi-markers by using logistic model (CD14bright CD16bright cell subset and serum tumor markers) was 0. 947 (95% CI: 0. 920-0. 973). The CD14bright CD16bright cells were closely associated with lymphocyte cells ( P < 0. 01). Conclusion The CD14bright CD16bright cells were dramatically increased in the peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer, which could be used as a biomarker in the diagnosis of gastric cancer.
