目的:观察胰腺和癌变标本中血小板活化生长因子PDGF及其受体PDGFR基因表达的变化关系,探讨PDGF及其PDGFR在肿瘤侵袭和转移过程中的作用。方法:用Northern杂交方法,采用cDNA探针(PDGFA、B,PDGFR-α、-β)对两株胰腺癌细胞(PaTu8988、PaTu8902)、15例胰腺癌手术切除标本和8例正常胰腺组织标本进行了分子杂交检测。结果:正常胰腺组织中,在RNA水平,PDGFB检测不出;PDGFA及其PDGFR-β有相对高的表达水平,PDGFR-α的表达水平相对较低;趋势为PDGFA>PDGFR-β>PDGFR-α。胰腺癌组织中,PDGFA、PDGFB在RNA水平的表达与正常胰腺组织相近;而PDGFR-α、PDGFR-β在RNA水平的表达,尤其是PDGFR-α的明显表达较正常胰腺组织相对提高。PaTu细胞株中,有PDGFA及其PDGFR-β的表达。结论:PDGF、PDGFR可能通过对胰腺癌细胞外基质降解代谢的调控,共同影响着肿瘤的侵袭和转移。
OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of platelet activating factor PDGF and its receptor PDGFR gene expression in pancreatic and cancerous specimens, and to explore the role of PDGF and its PDGFR in tumor invasion and metastasis. METHODS: Two pancreatic cancer cells (PaTu8988, PaTu8902), 15 surgical specimens of pancreatic cancer and 8 normal pancreatic tissue specimens were studied by Northern hybridization using cDNA probes (PDGFA, B, PDGFR-α, -β). Molecular hybridization assays. RESULTS: In normal pancreatic tissues, PDGFB was not detected at the RNA level; PDGFA and PDGFR-beta had relatively high expression levels; PDGFR-alpha expression was relatively low; the trend was PDGFA> PDGFR-beta> PDGFR-alpha . In pancreatic cancer tissues, the expression of PDGFA and PDGFB at the RNA level was similar to that of normal pancreatic tissue. The expression of PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β at the RNA level, especially the expression of PDGFR-α, was relatively higher than that of normal pancreatic tissue. In PaTu cell line, PDGFA and its PDGFR-β expression. Conclusion: PDGF and PDGFR may affect the invasion and metastasis of tumors through the regulation of the degradation and metabolism of extracellular matrix of pancreatic cancer cells.
