To investigate cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression of in colorectal carcinoma cell lines and tissues and its clinical implications.
SP immunohistochemistry was used to detect COX-2 protein in SW480 and SW620 cell lines and 50 primary colorectal carcinoma and 50 lymphoma metastasis carcinoma specimens. Real-time PCR was used to detect COX-2 mRNA expression in SW480 and SW620 cell lines.
SW480 and SW620 cell lines both highly expressed COX-2. The positive expression levels of COX-2 increased significantly in lymph node metastatic carcinoma in comparison with primary colorectal carcinoma (P<0.05). The expression COX-2 mRNA in SW620 cell line was higher than that of SW480 cell line, showing a mean expression increment of 2.268 folds in SW620 cell line relative to SW480.
Elevated COX-2 expression may be associated with lymph node metastases of colorectal carcinoma.
研究环氧化酶-2(COX-2)在大肠癌细胞系和组织中的表达及其临床意义。
采用SP免疫组织化学法检测SW480和SW620细胞系以及50例原发性大肠癌和50例淋巴结转移癌标本中的COX-2蛋白。采用实时荧光定量PCR法检测SW480和SW620细胞系中COX-2 mRNA的表达。
SW480和SW620细胞系均高表达COX-2。与原发性大肠癌相比,淋巴结转移癌中COX-2的阳性表达水平显著升高(P<0.05)。SW620细胞系中COX-2 mRNA的表达高于SW480细胞系,相对于SW480细胞系,SW620细胞系的平均表达增加了2.268倍。
COX-2表达升高可能与大肠癌的淋巴结转移有关。
