摘要
目的研究LKB1基因突变和甲基化在散发性Peutz-Jeghers综合征(P-J综合征)患者中的作用。方法提取5例散发性Peutz-Jeghers综合征患者外周血和其中3例的大肠息肉组织DNA,采用PCR法分析其序列的突变情况,MSP法检测基因启动子区域甲基化情况。结果在所有患者外周血和大肠息肉组织DNA中均未发现有病理意义的突变位点,在1例发生癌变的息肉组织DNA中检测到LKB1基因的甲基化。结论并非所有P-J综合征的患者都出现LKB1基因的序列突变,P-J综合征的发病可能存在其他的分子机制,但甲基化状态的改变可能是其息肉发生癌变的机制。
Objective To investigate the frequency of LKB1 gene mutations and methylation in sporadic Peutz-Jeghers patients. Methods DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and intestinal polyps. PCR-sequcencing and MSP were used to screen patients LKB1 gene mutations and methylation as well. Results ( 1 ) No pathogenic LKB1 gene mutations were found in all 5 sporadic Peutz-Jeghers patients. (2) Promoter methylation was found in carcinomatous polyps of 1 patient. Conclusions (1) LKB1 gene germline mutation may not be the only molecular pathogen of sporadic Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. (2) Methylation in LKB1 gene promoter region may cause carcinomatous change in intestinal polyps.
