GADD45A基因在人贲门腺癌组织中的异常甲基化和表达及其临床意义
Expression and aberrant methylation of growth arrest and DNA-damageinducible 45 alpha gene in human gastric cardia adenocarcinoma tissues and its clinical significance
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To investigate the expression and aberrant methylation of growth arrest and DNA-damageinducible 45 alpha (GADD45A) gene in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA) and to explore its clinical significance.Methods:Tissue samples in GCA patients (138 cases) were selected from Fourth Hospital of Hebei University during 2004 to 2007.Bisulfite sequencing (BS-Seq),bisulfite conversion-methylation specific polymerase chain reaction (BS-MSP),reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry methods were used respectively to detect the methylation status,mRNA and protein expression of GADD45A gene in GCA tissues and the para-carcinoma normal tissues.Results:The methylation frequency of four CpG sites in distal promoter of GADD45A in GCA tissues (44.93%,[62/138]) was significantly higher than that in the para-carcinoma normal tissues (0.00%,0/138) (P <0.01).The methylation frequency of 4 CpG sites in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ GCA tissues was significantly higher than that in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ GCA tissues (P < 0.05).However,the methylation status GADD45A in GCA tissues was not correltaed with age,gender and pathological differentiation (P > 0.05).For GADD45A region 2 and 3 located in proximal promoter and exon 1,no methylation was detected in GCA and the para-carcinoma normal tissues.The expression of GADD45A mRNA and positive expression rate of GADD45A protein in GCA tissues were significantly lower than those in the para-carcinoma normal tissues ([0.35 ± 0.15] vs [0.78 ± 0.26],42.75 % vs 71.01%,P < 0.05) and was associated with methylation status of 4 CpG sites in distal promoter (r =-0.52,P < 0.01).Conclusion:Hypermethylation of four CpG sites in distal promoter of GADD45A gene may be responsible for the decreased expression of GADD45A in GCA.关键词
