To investigate PLAC1/CP1 as a potential candidate gene in gastric cancer therapy.
Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was used to detect the expression of PLAC1/CP1 mRNA in gastric cancer tissues and paired adjacent non-cancerous tissues resected from 28 patients with gastric cancer. Specific antibodies against PLAC1/CP1 were also detected by ELISA method in gastric cancer patients.
Fourteen (50%,14/28) out of the 28 gastric cancer samples were PLAC1/CP1 mRNA positive. Of the 28 serum samples tested,eight (29%,8/28) displayed positive seroreactivity against PLAC1/CP1 antigen, accounting for 57% (8/14) of PLAC1/CP1 mRNA positive samples.
PLAC1/CP1 mRNA was expressed in high frequency and induced spontaneous antibody responses in gastric cancer patients. PLAC1/CP1 may be a valuable candidate antigen in gastric cancer immunotherapy.
研究PLAC1/CP1作为胃癌治疗潜在候选基因的情况。
采用逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)法检测28例胃癌患者手术切除的癌组织及配对的癌旁正常组织中PLAC1/CP1 mRNA的表达。采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测胃癌患者血清中针对PLAC1/CP1的特异性抗体。
28例胃癌组织样本中,14例(50%,14/28)PLAC1/CP1 mRNA呈阳性。28例血清样本中,8例(29%,8/28)对PLAC1/CP1抗原呈阳性血清反应,占PLAC1/CP1 mRNA阳性样本的57%(8/14)。
PLAC1/CP1 mRNA在胃癌患者中高频率表达并诱导自发抗体反应。PLAC1/CP1可能是胃癌免疫治疗中有价值的候选抗原。
