Methods:Superficial gastritis group (n=247), gastric ulcer group (n=159) and gastric cancer group (n=97) who were pathologically diagnosed by gastroscopy in Chongqing wanzhou district people's hospital of 5 between August 2016 and August 2017 were selected, and the differences in serum pepsinogen Ⅰ/Ⅱ ratio and gastrin-17 content as well as proliferation and apoptosis gene expression in lesion tissue were compared among the three groups. Pearson test was used to evaluate the correlation of pepsinogen Ⅰ/Ⅱ ratio and gastrin-17 content with malignant proliferation activity of cancer cells in patients with gastric cancer. Results: Serum pepsinogenⅠ/Ⅱ ratio and gastrin-17 content in gastric cancer group were lower than those in gastric ulcer group and superficial gastritis group. Proliferation genes EIF5A2, MACF1 and PIK3CD mRNA expression levels in gastric cancer group were higher than those in gastric ulcer group and superficial gastritis group whereas SIRT1 mRNA expression level was lower than that in gastric ulcer group and superficial gastritis group;apoptosis gene Livin mRNA expression level was higher than that in gastric ulcer group and superficial gastritis group whereas Bad and Noxa mRNA expression levels were lower than those in gastric ulcer group and superficial gastritis group;serum pepsinogen Ⅰ/Ⅱ ratio and gastrin-17 content in gastric cancer group were negatively correlated with EIF5A2, MACF1, PIK3CD and Livin mRNA expression levels, and positively correlated with SIRT1, Bad and Noxa mRNA expression levels. Conclusion: The serum pepsinogen Ⅰ/Ⅱ ratio and gastrin-17 content abnormally reduce in patients with gastric cancer, and the specific levels are directly correlated with gastric cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis activity.展开更多
