表皮生長因子受器 (Epidermal growth factor receptor, EGFR) 在調控上皮細胞的增生、分化及存活上扮演著重要角色,EGFR 訊息傳遞路徑失去調控會造成細胞不正常的增生及分化,進而造成各種癌症的產生。大腸直腸癌 (Colorectal cancer,CRC) 被認為是由於 EGFR 蛋白質或其 mRNA 大量表現所造成,臨床研究也顯示有25至75% 病患之大腸癌組織呈現 EGFR過量表現的情形。目前最普遍用來偵測EGFR表現的方法為免疫組織化學染色法(Immunohistochemistry staining,IHC),臨床上是以其結果作為對病患是否施以標靶治療之依據,但是有越來越多的臨床報告指出IHC的結果與標靶治療的反應並無絕對的相關性。此外,也有報告指出部分 CRC 組織之EGFR 基因複製數目(Copy number)有增加的現象,因此利用螢光原位雜交(Fluorescence in situ hybridization,FISH) 來偵測 EGFR 基因複製數目的方法也被用於評估 CRC 之診斷與治療。然而,許多最近的研究顯示僅有少數的 CRC 組織之EGFR 基因複製數目有增加的現象。因此,截至目前為止尚未有一個明確的分子標記可作為 CRC臨床治療的指標。本研究的目的是利用即時聚合酶連鎖反應(Real-time PCR)來測定大腸癌組織的EGFR 與其各種ligands之mRNA的表現量,與病歷資料做統計,希望能找出CRC的特定分子標記以提供臨床治療的參考。目前我們已分析85位 CRC 病患的 EGFR 及 EGFR ligands (包括Epiregulin、Amphiregulin、Transforming Growth Factor-α、Epidermal Growth Factor、Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor、Betacellulin)之 mRNA 在正常組織與癌組織的表現,發現EGFR mRNA在大腸直腸癌組織相對表現量(10.75 ± 5.38)比癌組織周圍正常組織(12.72 ± 4.73)有較低的趨勢,具統計意義( p = 0.007),但存活分析發現沒有顯著差異( p > 0.05)。而EGFR ligands中發現EREG、AREG mRNA在癌組織(100.73 ± 147.41、10.81 ± 13.00)比癌組織周圍正常組織(17.46 ± 42.81、5.27 ± 5.86)中皆有高顯著表現( p<0.0001),由統計分析和存活分析結果發現EREG、AREG 之mRNA相對表現量高病人存活比例較高( p = 0.024、0.02),而且存活時間較久( p = 0.04、p = 0.04)。依本實驗之結果推斷EREG、AREG mRNA在大腸直腸癌中相對表現量可以當作臨床診斷的指標,而且EREG與AREG之高表現量可能降低病人之死亡率。
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a pivotal role in regulating epithelial proliferation, differentiation and survival. Aberrant regulation of EGFR signaling has been implicated in the development and progression of several different solid tumors. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is considered a tumor showing EGFR overexpression alternatively in protein or mRNA levels. Clinical studies have proven that 25~ 75% of CRC patients have shown high EGFR expression. Now the most popular method for EGFR determination is immunohistochemistry staining (IHC) that was currently used as a criterion for EGFR target therapy. More and more reports, however, have suggested that there is no absolutely correlation between IHC-positive and target therapy response. Recently, the increased EGFR gene copy number has also been found in some CRC case. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) method to detect the EGFR gene copy number was therefore developed for CRC diagnosis and therapy. But there are also many reports stated that only small minority case with increased CRC gene copy number. Up to now, there is not a single molecular marker could be used as a certainly criterion in CRC therapy. The aim of this study is to shed more light on EGFR expression in CRC, evaluating the expression of EGFR and EGFR ligands using real-time PCR method and statistical analyses with case history. We have already analyzed that 85 CRC patients mRNA of EGFR and EGFR ligands in normal and cancer tissues. Finding EGFR mRNA has lower expression level in the cancer tissue (10.75 ± 5.38) as compared to normal tissues (12.72 ± 4.73), according to the statistics ( p = 0.007). But survival analysis has not shown the difference ( p > 0.05). The result was similar with many other reports that implicated the failure of predicting EGFR mRNA expression as a CRC therapy indicator. In contrast, two of EGFR ligands’, EREG and AREG, mRNA ( p < 0.0001) expressed high level in cancer tissues (100.73 ± 147.41 and 10.81 ± 13.00) as compared to normal tissues(17.46 ± 42.81 and 5.27 ± 5.86). Statistical analysis and survival analysis showed that the high expression level of EREG and AREG mRNA is associated with the rate of patient survival (p = 0.024, 0.02) and the survival time ( p = 0.04, p = 0.04). According to this result, the high expression level of EREG and AREG mRNA in colorectal cancer, has the potential to be used as molecular markers in clinical diagnosis and it may associated with the survival rate of colorectal cancer patients.
