Abstract:
Objective To study fragile histidine triad gene(FHIT) gene mRNA expression in 60 samples of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) and matched adjacent non-concerous tissues (NCE),and to explore the role of FHIT gene in the development in PTC.Methods Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to detect FHIT gene mRNA expression in 60 samples of PTC and matched NCE.Results In PTC tissues,the positive rate of FHIT gene mRNA expression was 45.0% (27/60),lower than that in NCE tissues (100.0%,60/60).FHIT gene mRNA expression was correlated with pathology stage,TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05).Conclusion FHIT loss and transcript abnormality might play important roles in proliferation and metastasis of PTC,and might be a useful marker for evaluating the biological behavior of PTC.
