The aim of this study was to investigate the value of serum macrophage inhibitory factor-1 (MIC-1) level in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Serum samples from 296 patients with NSCLC and 240 healthy controls were collected. The levels of serum MIC-1 were determined by ELISA. The serum MIC-1 levels in NSCLC patients were higher than that of the controls (P <.001). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that serum MIC-1 was an independent prognostic indicator of OS and PFS. Serum MIC-1 is a valuable biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC.
本研究旨在探讨血清巨噬细胞抑制因子-1(MIC-1)水平在非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者中的价值。收集了 296 例 NSCLC 患者和 240 例健康对照者的血清样本。通过 ELISA 法测定血清 MIC-1 水平。NSCLC 患者的血清 MIC-1 水平高于对照组(P<.001)。单因素和多因素 Cox 回归分析表明,血清 MIC-1 是 OS 和 PFS 的独立预后指标。血清 MIC-1 是 NSCLC 诊断和预后的有价值的生物标志物。
