食管鳞状细胞癌染色体13q12-13 杂合性丢失

Loss of Heterozygosity on Chromosome 13q12-13 in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

  • 摘要: 目的 分析食管鳞状细胞癌(ESCC)在13号染色体长臂12—13区(13q12—13)上的等位基因杂合性丢失(LOH),以期寻找13q12-13区上可能存在的与ESCC有关肿瘤抑制基因(TSG)的缺失区域。方法 用8个位于13q12—13区的微卫星标志物,对56例ESCC患者进行PCR-LOH分析,56例ESCC患者包括34例有上消化道癌家族史,22例无上消化道癌家族史。结果 56例ESCC患者中,48例(86%)显示一个或更多位点LOH;并发现一个LOH高频率区,位于位点D13s267和D13s219之间,物理距离仅有2.83Mb;在位点D13S1242有上消化道癌家族史组LOH为68%,明显高于无上消化道癌家族史组的18%,(P=0.003);在位点D13S289有上消化道癌家族史组LOH为82%,明显高于无上消化道癌家族史组的31%(P=0.008),有显著意义。结论 研究提示染色体13q12-13的LOH可能在食管癌发生发展中起重要作用,在染色体13q12-13区上,可能存在一个或多个与ESCC发生发展有关肿瘤抑制基因(TSG)。

     

    Abstract: Objective  To detect the status of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) on chromosome 13q1-213 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma ( ECCC) and determine a minium loss region of ESC related tumor suppression gene ( TSG) . Methods  By means of laser capture microdissection, eight microstatellite markers spinning chromosome bands 13q12-13 were used to examine 56 ESCC patient s by PCR2LOH, including 34 with a family history of upper gast rointestinal cancer and 22 without a family history of cancer. Results  The total LOH f requency is 86 % (48/ 56) . One commonly deleted region was identified :was located on band 13q 12. 3-q 13. 1, between markers D13S267 and D13S219. Two microsatellite markers (D13S1242 and D13S289 ) had a higher LOH f requency in those patient s with a family history of upper gast rointestinal cancer compared to patient s without such a history ( P < 0. 05) . Conclusion  More than one unidentified tumor suppression genes ( TSGs) are located on chromosome arm 13q that play a role in the development of ESCC.
