Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes in Doppler perfusion index(DPI)of the liver and the platelet derived-endothelial cell growth factor(PD-ECGF)in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal carcinoma by determination DPI and PD-ECGF mRNA and protein expression levels.Methods One hundred patients were enrolled,including 50colorectal carcinoma patients(22of whom with liver metastasis and 28patients without liver metastasis)and 50healthy subjects as control.For all the objects involved,hepatic perfusion was documented with color Doppler flow imaging,and the DPI(hepatic arterial/total liver blood supply)was computed.The expression levels of protein and mRNA of PD-ECGF in 50specimens of carcinoma and adjacent tissues of colorectal carcinoma were assayed by immunohistochemistry and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR methods in patients with colorectal carcinoma.Results According to pathology and imaging results,the DPI of colorectal carcinoma patients with liver metastasis was significantly higher than that in healthy control group and non-liver metastasis group(P0.05).According to the results of immunohistochemistry and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,the expression levels of PD-ECGF protein and mRNA were significantly higher in colorectal carcinoma than that in adjacent tissues(P
