摘要
目的:探讨斯钙素(stanniocalcin-1,STC-1)在食管鳞癌(Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma,ESCC)患者骨髓中的表达及其临床意义。方法:术中收集85例ESCC患者肋骨骨髓,应用巢式RT-PCR检测STC-1 mRNA的表达,并分析其与临床病理特征及两年无进展生存(Progress Free Survival,PFS)的关系。结果:骨髓STC-1 mRNA阳性率为21.2%(18/85)。STC-1阳性与患者临床分期(P=0.013)及淋巴结转移(P=0.029)相关,其2年PFS(平均15.0月)亦劣于STC-1阴性者(平均19.7月)(P=0.003)。结论:骨髓STC-1 mRNA检测对于判断ESCC微转移具有重要意义,可望成为ESCC潜在预后标志物。
Objective: To study the clinical significance of the marker of disseminated tumor cells,stanniocalcin-1(STC-1) expression in bone marrow(BM) of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.Methods: STC-1 mRNA expression was determined using nest RT-PCR in BM of 85 ESCC patients,and its associations with clinicopathological factors and 2 year progress free survival(PFS) were further evaluated.Results: The positive expression of STC-1 mRNA in BM was 21.2%(18/85).Furthermore,STC-1 mRNA expression in BM was associated with the advanced stage(P=0.013),lymph metastasis(P=0.029) and adverse 2-year PFS(mean 15.0 months vs 19.7 months,P=0.003).Conclusions: STC-1 mRNA detection in BM was useful to evaluate micrometastasis of ESCC,which may be a potential biomarker for prognosis assessment of ESCC.
