  • Expression of HGF and c-met Detected by Tissue Microarray and Relationship with Tumor Angiogenesis in Human Colorectal Cancer

    Objective To study hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor (c-met) expressions in human colorectal cancer and non-neoplasm colorectal mucosa, and the relationship with tumor angiogenesis. Methods Tissue microarrays (TMAs) were made up of 80 cases of colorectal cancer and 80 cases of nonneoplasm colorectal mucosa. The expressions of HGF and c-met were detected by immunohistochemistry (SP). CD105 was used as a marker to account microvessel density (MVD) in tumor tissue. Results HGF was over expressed in 48 cases and c-met was over expressed in 63 cases of colorectal cancer tissue, and the correlation between HGF and c-met positive expression was significant (r=0.231, Plt;0.05). The high expression rate of HGF and cmet in colorectal cancer were significantly higher than that in non-neoplasm colorectal mucosa (χ2=35.387, Plt;0.05; χ2=59.854, Plt;0.05) of colorectal cancer. The overexpression of HGF was correlated with lymph node metastasis (χ2=4.743, Plt;0.05) and TNM staging (χ2=5.576, Plt;0.05). The overexpression of c-met was correlated with differentiation (χ2=15.767, Plt;0.05) and lymph node metastasis (χ2=5.765, Plt;0.05) of colorectal cancer. MVD was different between overexpression and lowexpression colorectal cancer tissues of HGF and cmet (t=2.150, Plt;0.05; t=2.052, Plt;0.05). There was statistical correlation between HGF and cmet overexpression (r=0.259, Plt;0.05). The overexpressions of HGF and cmet were correlated with lymph metastasis in moderate differentiation cancer (χ2=13.154, Plt;0.05; χ2=5.371, Plt;0.05). Conclusions The overexpressions of HGF and c-met in colorectal cancer may be related with tumor angiogenesis. Detecting the expressions of HGF and c-met is valuable to estimate the biological character of colorectal cancer.
