Determination of free DNA level in plasma of patients with ovarian cancer / 吉林大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective To determine the plasma DNA level of patients with ovarian cancer and evaluate its potential clinical value.Methods Blood samples were collected from 30 ovarian cancer patients before and after surgery,and from 20 patients with ovarian benign tumor and 20 healthy women.The plasma DNA was extracted by commercial kit and detected by fluorescntmeter.Results The mean plasma DNA level in the cancer patients(25.33 ?g?L-1?17.69 ?g?L-1) was significantly higher than those in the benign tumor patients(10.28 ?g?L-1?4.80 ?g?L-1) and normal control(7.60 ?g?L-1?3.87 ?g?L-1)(P
