Analysis and clinical significance of DNA ploidy, S-phase fraction and proliferating index in colorectal carcinoma / 中国医师进修杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo study the changes and clinical significance of DNA ploidy,S-phase fraction(SPF),proliferating index(PI) in colorectal carcinoma.MethodsIn 40 cases of colorectal carcinoma (colorectal carcinoma group ),40 cases corresponding cancer-adjacent tissue (cancer-adjacent tissue group ),12 cases of precancerous lesions (precancerous lesions group) and 10 cases of normal colorectal mucosa coli (normal colorectal mucosa coli group),DNA ploidy,SPF and PI were detected with flow cytometry and compared.ResultsDNA diploid was 7 cases,DNA heteroploid was 33 cases in colorectal carcinoma group,35,5 cases in cancer-adjacent tissue group,10,2 cases in precancerous lesions group,10,0 case innormal colorectal mucosa coli group,there were significant differences among them(P＜ 0.01 ).SPF and PI in colorectal carcinoma group (35.36 ± 7.45,42.92 ± 6.81 ) were significantly higher than those in cancer-adjacent tissue group (20.82 ±5.51,31.34 ±4.88),precancerous lesions group (21.13 ± 5.07,31.70 ±5.59) and normal colorectal mucosa coli group ( 19.93 ± 3.73,32.01 ± 4.99),there were significant differences among them(P＜ 0.01 ).DNA ploidy was significantly correlated with Dukes staging (P=0.027) and the differentiation of colorectal carcinoma (P =0.030).ConclusionsDNA ploidy,SPF,PI may get some molecular biologycharacteristic and proliferation activity of colorectal carcinoma at molecule level,which may be helpful for treatment and evaluation of prognosis of colorectal carcinoma.
