Objective To investigate the expressions of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) protein and mRNA in colon mucosa of ulcerative colitis (UC) and to analyze its correlation with endoscopic and histological grading. Methods The biopsies from 32 UC patients and 26 healthy controls were collected, and the expressions of 5-LOX mRNA and protein in colonic mucosa was determined by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry assay, respectively. The endoscopic and histological grading of 32 UC patients were also recorded. Results According to endoscopic grading, there were 10 cases of grade Ⅰ , 19 of grade Ⅱ and 3 of grade Ⅲ in 32 UC patients, and there were 19 cases of grade Ⅰ , 9 of grade Ⅱ and 4 of grade Ⅲ according to histological grading. The expressions of 5-LOX mRNA and protein in UC patients were significantly higher than those in healthy controls (P ＜0. 05 ). The rate of 5-LOX protein expression increased with endoscopic and histological grades, which was also positively correlated with endoscopic grades ( P ＜ 0. 05 ), but not with histological grades ( P ＞0. 05 ). Conclusion The expressions of 5-LOX mRNA and protein in colon mucosa from UC patients might be a marker for disease activity. 5-LOX may play a pivotal role in inflammation of UC and be a target site for treatment.
