Abstract:
Purpose To ana1yze the expression features of 5-F1uorouraci1(5-FU)metabo1ic enzyme thymidy1ate synthetase(TS),thy-midine phosphory1ase( TP),dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase( DPD)and its re1ationship with c1inicopatho1ogica1 factors and progno-sis in co1orecta1 cancer,in order to further exp1ore its potentia1 significance in guiding co1orecta1 cancer chemotherapy. Methods Es-tab1ishment of a tissue microarray containing 72 patients with co1orecta1 cancer,and 56 norma1 tissue( dista1 cut edge tissue near carci-noma)was used to detect TS,TP,and DPD by immunohistochemistry,and to ana1yze its re1ationship with c1inicopatho1ogica1 factors and prognosis of co1orecta1 cancer through statistica1 method. Results The expression of TS in co1orecta1 cancer was 1ower than that in norma1 tissue(P=0. 876),which was associated with TNM(P=0. 043)and positive1y corre1ated with patients’overa11 surviva1(P=0. 027),the expression of TP in co1orecta1 cancer was higher than that in norma1 tissue(P=0. 315)that was associated with 1ymph node metastasis(P=0. 009)and negative1y corre1ated with the prognosis of patients(P=0. 040),DPD expression in co1orecta1 canc-er was higher than that in norma1 tissue(P=0. 071),which was re1ated to the histo1ogic type(P=0. 029). Overa11 surviva1 was sig-nificant1y shortened in co1orecta1 cancer with DPD high expression( P=0. 011). Conclusions TS,TP and DPD might be app1ied as important index of prognosis in co1orecta1 cancer patients using 5-FU adjuvant chemotherapy. The expression of TS re1ated c1ose1y with the c1inica1 stage is a bio1ogica1 marker of tumor progression. TP expression is c1ose1y re1ated to 1ymph nodes metastasis and recur-rence,which is an important factor of postoperative recurrence and metastasis.
