Research Abstract

1.The detection of micrometastatic tumor cells
This study was designed to prospectively substantiate the prognostic value of cytokeratin (CK)-positive cells in the bone marrow (BM) and regional lymph nodes (LNs) in resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients from a large population within a multicenter study. The study population consisted of 351 patients with stage I-IIIA NSCLC, CK-positive cells were detected in 112(31.9%) of the 351 BM aspirates. CK-positive cells in the LNs were detected in 34(15.7%) of 216 patients with stage I. The presence of CK-Positive cells in the BM was related to a poor prognosis for patients with stages II-IIIA NSCLC ; however, it did not predict the prognosis of patients with stage I. For stage I NSCLC, the detection of CK-positive cells in the LNs implied a poor prognosis for the patients.
2.The analysis of biological factors and clinical significance ;
(1)The expression of VEGF and VEGF-C was evaluated by immunohistochemistry, and the high express … More ion of VEGF-C was shown to be a unfavorable prognostic factor in NSCLC patients. We examined the expression of cell-adhesion gene (E-cadherin, a,b,g-catenin), and reduced expression of these gene was associated with LN micrometastasis. (2)We examined the GalNAc-T3 expression in preneoplastic lesion and adenocarcinoma by immunohistochemistry. Our data suggests that the expression of GalNAc-T3 is associated with tumor differentiation, and low expression of GalNAc-T3 may be a useful biological marker for predicting poor prognosis and early recurrence in completely resected lung adenocarcinoma patients, particularly patients with stage I disease. (3)Aberrant DNA methylation of cancer associated genes in NSCLC was examined by methylation-specific PCR. The methylation of p16 was associated with smoking and the methylation of FHIT was associated with LN metastasis. The methylation of CDH1 was a unfavorable prognostic factor in NSCLC patients.
These results demonstrated the importance of the expression profile in patients with NSCLC, and these study could be applicable to future decision s concerning treatment. Less
