Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of KAI1 expression in colon cancer tissues for tumor recurrence.Methods:Ninety-two pathological tissue samples were collected from patients undergoing radical operation for colon cancer in Tangshan People's Hospital from August 2010 to November 2011. According to the results of follow-up, the patients were divided into recurrent group (33 cases) and non-recurrent group (59 cases). KAI1 expression in tumor tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. χ2 test was used to analyze the relationship between KAI1 expression in colon cancer tissues and clinicopathological characteristics of patients with colon cancer. Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the relationship between KAI1 expression in colon cancer tissues and the recurrence time of patients. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the related factors affecting postoperative recurrence of colon cancer. Results:KAI1 expression in tumor tissues in the recurrent group was lower than that in the non-recurrent group [39.39% (13/33) vs. 62.71% (37/59), χ2 = 4.638, P = 0.031]. KAI1 expression was not associated with patients' gender, age and tumor maximum diameter (all P > 0.05), but related to the tumor differentiation and lymphatic metastasis [high and medium differentiation vs. low differentiation: 70.3% (26/37) vs. 43.6% (24/55), χ2 = 6.324, P =0.012; lymph node metastasis vs. non-lymph node metastasis: 43.2% (19/44) vs. 64.6% (31/48), χ2 = 4.238, P = 0.039]. KAI1 expression in tumor tissues was positively correlated with tumor recurrence time ( r = 0.845, P < 0.05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that the low differentiation of the tumor, lymph node metastasis and negative expression of KAI1 in colon cancer tissues were independent risk factors for recurrence of colon cancer after surgery ( HR = 1.736, 95% CI 1.598-5.391, P = 0.019; HR =1.526, 95% CI 1.175-3.029, P = 0.037; HR = 1.799,95% CI 1.756-5.825, P = 0.013). Conclusion:Low KAI1 expression in colon cancer tissues is closely related to colon cancer recurrence, and the detection of KAI1 expression in colon cancer tissues has certain predictive value for tumor recurrence.
