Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of combined detection of serum tumor biomarkers including alpha-fetoprotein (AFP),tumor specific growth factor (TSGF),golgi protein 73 (GP73) and osteopontin (OPN) in diagnosis of primmy hepatic carcinoma.Methods AFP,TSGF and GP73 levels were measured by electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay,and OPN levels by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 122 cases of primary hepatic carcinoma,50 cases of liver benign lesions and 50 cases of healthy control.The biological parameters and the levels of AFP,TSGF,GP73 and OPN were studied.Results The serum levels of AFP,TSGF,GP73 and OPN in primary hepatic carcinoma were higher than those in the liver benign disease group and the normal control group (all P < 0.01).Sex and age of the patients at diagnosis showed no significant association with the levels of the four serum tumor biomarkers in the primary hepatic carcinoma groups (all P > 0.05).But the tumor size,amount,tumor stage,metastasis and recurrence showed significant association with the levels of those in the primary hepatic carcinoma groups (all P < 0.05).The sensitivity,specificity and veracity of serum AFP,TSGF,GP73 and OPN as individual diagnostic marker was only 57.38 %,68.85 %,70.49 % and 69.67 %,respectively.The sensitivity of combined detection of AFP and TSGF was 80.33 %,and that of combined detection of AFP,TSGF and GP73 was 85.25 %.While,the sensitivity of the four serum tumor markers in combination was 98.36 %,the accuracy was 95.65 %.The sensitivity and accuracy of combined detection with the four serum tumor markers were significantly higher than those of the individual markers and other combination detection methods (all P < 0.05).Conclusions Serum markers of AFP,TSGF,GP73 and OPN can serve as a means for diagnosis of primary hepatic carcinoma.Combined detection of the four serum tumor biomarkers can improve the sensitivity,accuracy and the negative predictive value,which is benefit to early diagnosis and interference.
