Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the changes of expression of T lymphoma invasion and metastasis inducing factor 1 (Tiam1) mRNA and lymph node micrometastasis and prognosis in patients with node-negative colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods From June 2008 to August 2010,a total of 63 patients with lymph node-negative CRC,20 patients with lymph node-positive CRC and 25 patients with colorectal benign lesions were enrolled.The relative quantity expression (RQ) of Tiam1 mRNA in CRC cancer tissues and colorectal benign lesions were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The lymph node micrometastasis was determined by cytokeratin 20 detection in lymph nodes tissues.The five-year postoperative prognosis was evaluated by followed-up in the patients with lymph node-negative CRC.The correlation between the expression of Tiam1 mRNA and lymph node micrometastasis and prognosis was analyzed.The t-test,univariate analysis,multivariate analysis and Log-rank test were performed for statistical analysis.Results Lymphnode micrometastasis occurred in 33 from 63 patients with lymph node-negative CRC.The RQ of Tiam1 mRNA in the patients with lymph node-positive CRC was 9.84±-2.36,which was higher than that of patients with lymph node-negative CRC (5.15±3.58),and the difference was statistically significant (t=5.479,P<0.01).The RQ of Tiam1 mRNA of these two groups were both higher than that of colorectal benign lesion (0.30± 0.21),and the difference was statistically significant(t=20.169,6.745;both P<0.01).The RQ of Tiam1 mRNA of positive lymph node micrometastasis group was 6.30±1.95,which was higher than that of negative lymph node micrometastasis group (3.88 ± 1.63),and the difference was statistically significant (t=5.330,P<0.01).In the patients with lymph node-negative CRC,the lower degree of tumor difference,the deeper invasion,the shorter survival time after surgery and postoperative recurrence and metastasis were related with the higher RQ of Tiam1 mRNA in tumor tissues (t=2.536,3.112,3.213,2.676;all P<0.05).Univariate analysis revealed that the expression of Tiam1 mRNA in cancer tissues was correlated with lymph node micrometastases(x2=11.878,P =0.001).Multivariate analysis showed that it was an independent risk factors of lymph node micrometastases in CRC (relative risk:9.782).The five-year postoperative cumulative survival rate of high Tiaml mRNA expression group was 75.8 %,which was lower than that of low expression group (97.1 %),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.575,P<0.05).Conclusions Tiam1 may participate in the regulation of lymph node metastasis in CRC.Elevated expression of Tiam1 promotes lymph node metastasis and is closely relatived with poor prognosis of node-negative CRC,and which can be considered as an indicator of prognosis.
