Association Between Promoter Methylation And Protein Expression Of Tumor Suppressor Genes With Clinical Characteristics In Gastric Carcinoma And Its Effect On The Biological Function Of Gastric Cancer.

e15509 Background: Studies showed that the gene promoter methylation may be the third important mechanisms of gene expression regulation. Abnormal methylation of tumor suppressor gene can be detected in the early stage of tumor, by screening the methylation profile of gastric cancer (GC), it can provide theoretical and experimental evidence for early diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. Methods: Detecte p16, hMLH1 and CDH1 promoter methylation, the p16, hMLH1 and E-cadher expression in GC tissues and its correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Detect methylation of hMLH1 promoter and mRNA expression in GC cell line and normal gastric mucosa cell line. Clone formation assay and Transwell test. Results: The methylation of hMLH1 and CDH1 in GC and adjacent tissues were statistically significant . The methylation of hMLH1 was related to alcohol , CA199 level and Borrman. The methylation of CDH1 was related to the CEA level. The methylation of hMLH1 promoter is related to OS in GC patients. The methylation of p16 and CDH1 was not related to the OS ofGC patients. The GC patients with 0 or 1 gene methylation had a better prognosis than those with 3 or 2 gene methylation. The p16, hMLH1 and E-cadherin protein expression in GC and adjacent tissues were statistically significant. The p16 protein expression was related to tumor size. The hMLH1 protein expression was related to the CA199 level and tumor size. The E-cadherin expression in GC patients with drinking history was lower than ones without drinking history. The p16, hMLH1 and E-cadherin protein expression was not related to the OS of GC patients. There was a negative correlation between hMLH1 gene methylation and its protein expression in GC. The number of clones in the control group and the experimental group were 180 ± 3 and 169 ± 6. The number of cells in the control group and the experimental group were 135 ± 4.08 and 125 ± 4.18. Conclusions: The methylation of multiple genes is associated with the prognosis, which can provide theoretical basis for accurate treatment and prognosis for GC patients.
