目的:分析宫颈癌和宫颈上皮内瘤样病变(cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, CIN)组织中p16和CDH1基因异常甲基化的变化,评价该指标在宫颈癌中的意义。方法:用甲基化特异性聚合酶链反应法(methylation-specific PCR,MSP)检测CINⅠ40例...目的:分析宫颈癌和宫颈上皮内瘤样病变(cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, CIN)组织中p16和CDH1基因异常甲基化的变化,评价该指标在宫颈癌中的意义。方法:用甲基化特异性聚合酶链反应法(methylation-specific PCR,MSP)检测CINⅠ40例、CINⅡ～Ⅲ40例、宫颈癌40例组织中p16和CDH1基因的异常甲基化。取正常宫颈组织20例作为对照。结果:(1)p16和CDH1甲基化在正常组未见表达;(2)p16、CDH1甲基化阳性率:CINⅡ、Ⅲ组明显高于CINⅠ组,差异有统计学意义(22．4%vs 2．5%,P＜0．05; 35．0%vs 5．0%,P＜0．05),宫颈癌组高于CINⅡ、Ⅲ组,但差异无统计学意义(40．0% vs 22．4%,P＞0．05;57．5% vs 35．0%,P＞0．05);宫颈癌组高于相应CINⅠ组,差异有统计学意义(40．0% vs 2．5%,P＜0．05;57．5% vs 5．0%,P＜0．05);(3)p16和CDH1甲基化总阳性率(任何一个基因出现甲基化即为阳性):CINⅡ、Ⅲ组明显高于CINⅠ组,差异有统计学意义(40．0% vs 5．0%,P＜0．05),宫颈癌组高于CINⅡ、Ⅲ组,差异有统计学意义(70．0% vs 40．0%,P＜0．05)。结论:p16和CDH1基因启动子区异常甲基化与宫颈癌的生物学行为相关,它可能有助于宫颈癌的早期辅助诊断和治疗。展开更多
