摘要
AIM To elucidate the biological and clinical significance of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in patients with gastric cancer.METHODS The serum levels of soluble ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were measured with sandwith enzyme immunoassay.RESULTS In gastric cancer patients, soluble ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 concentrations were significantly elevated in comparision with those of healthy subjects (289.23μg/L±32.69μg/L vs 190.44μ/L±35.92μg/L,1430.88μg/L±421.71μg/L vs 727.24μg/L±157.68μg/L, respectively, P<0.01). The increment in serum sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 concentrations correlated well with the staging of gastric cancer. The serum levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in patients of Ⅲ-Ⅳ stages were higher than those of Ⅰ-Ⅱ stages (346.60μg/L±92.10μg/L vs 257.54μg/L±32.77μg/L, 1800.60μg/L±510.76μg/L vs 1262.81μg/L±236.73μg/L). The levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 were correlated significantly (r=0.49,P<0.01). The sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 levels correlated positively with alkaline phophatase (r=0.63,0.71,P<0.001) and white cell count (r=0.52,0.43, P<0.01); but correlated negatively with serum albumin (r=-0.41, -0.49, P<0.01).CONCLUSION The measurement of circulating ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 may bring additional prognostic information for patients with gastric cancer in varying stages.INTRODUCTIONTumor growth and metastasis involves a variety of cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions mediated by cell adhesion molecules. Currently, a number of cell adhesion molecules, such as intercellular adhesion molecules-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecules-1 (VCAM-1), etc. have been found.ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are members of the immunoglobulin supergene family which are cytokine-induced glycoproteins (IL-1, TNFα and IFNγ). Both of them have five or seven extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains, a single transmembranous domain and a short cytoplasmic tail[1,2]. The natural ligand of ICAM-1 or VCAM-1 is LFA-1 (CD11a) and Mac-1 (CD11b) or VLA-4, respectively[3]. ICAM-1 is a widely distributed protein on a variety of tissues, and can be detected in many cells such as macrophage, T- and B-cells, or fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells. VCAM-1 is also a widely distributed protein and is constitutively expressed on tissue macrophage, dentritic cells in lymphoid tissue and skin, as well as on bone marrow fibroblasts and epithelial cells. Expression of VCAM-1 is inducible on vascular endothelial cells under pathological conditions[4].Recently, soluble forms of several adhesion molecules including ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were found in serum of normal donors[5]. Abnormally high levels of them have been described in some solid malignant tumors, leukemia, autoimmune disease, infectious disease, etc.The present study was carried out to measure the circulating levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in gastric cancer before treatment was given and to study their correlation with clinical, histological and routine laboratory parameters.
