摘要
目的 研究MAL基因在人食管癌中的表达下调状况。方法 采用Northern 杂交和RTPCR方法检测了MAL基因在41 对配对的食管癌组织和相应癌旁食管粘膜中的表达;应用PCR和RTPCR方法分析了MAL基因在3 个食管癌细胞系EC109 、EC8712 和EC9706 中的存在及其表达。结果MAL基因的表达水平在927 % (38/41) 食管癌组织中明显低于同一患者的癌旁食管粘膜。同时,MAL基因在3 个食管癌细胞系中未见表达。PCR分析显示,这3 个食管癌细胞系中均存在被分析的MAL基因片段。结论 MAL基因表达下调是食管癌发生。
Objective To investigate the status of expression of MAL gene in human esophageal cancer. Methods Expression of MAL gene was analyzed by Northern blot and/or RT PCR in 41 pairs of human esophageal cancer tissues and matched adjacent normal mucosa, and three human esophageal cancer cell lines EC109, EC8712 and EC9706. MAL gene was analyzed by PCR in the three esophageal cancer cell lines.Results MAL gene expression was down regulated substantially or barely detectable in 93%(38/41) of human esophageal cancer tissues while expressed at high level in all matched adjacent normal esophageal mucosa. In all 3 human esophageal cancer cell lines, expression of MAL gene was not detectable. PCR analysis showed that the MAL gene fragment analyzed was intact in the three esophageal cancer cell lines.Conclusion Down regulation of MAL gene expression is of frequent occurrence in human esophageal cancer.
