目的:探讨RAR-β2基因(retinoic ac id receptorβ2 gene)启动子在散发性乳腺癌患者血浆中异常甲基化状况。方法:用甲基化特异PCR(MSP)法和实时荧光定量PCR法对62例散发性乳腺癌患者血浆和15例良性乳腺增生患者血浆中的RAR-β2基因启动...目的:探讨RAR-β2基因(retinoic ac id receptorβ2 gene)启动子在散发性乳腺癌患者血浆中异常甲基化状况。方法:用甲基化特异PCR(MSP)法和实时荧光定量PCR法对62例散发性乳腺癌患者血浆和15例良性乳腺增生患者血浆中的RAR-β2基因启动子异常甲基化状况进行检测。结果:散发性乳腺癌患者血清中37%(28/62)发生了RAR-β2基因启动子甲基化,良性乳腺增生患者中均未检测到RAR-β2基因的甲基化。RAR-β2基因启动子甲基化状态与淋巴结转移和临床分期有相关性(P<0.05)。结论:乳腺癌患者外周血浆中RAR-β2基因启动子异常甲基化是散发性乳腺癌发生的早期事件,有望成为乳腺癌早期诊断的指标。展开更多
