摘要: 背景与目的: 研究大鼠肺鳞癌癌变各阶段基因组DNA甲基化水平动态变化趋势。 材料与方法: 支气管灌注3-甲基胆蒽(MCA)及二乙基亚硝胺(DEN)碘油溶液诱发Wistar大鼠肺鳞癌模型。采用免疫组化法检测大鼠肺鳞癌癌变各阶段基因组DNA甲基化水平,利用图像分析系统测量其平均光密度值和积分光密度值。 结果: 经支气管灌注MCA及DEN碘油溶液,诱发Wistar大鼠肺鳞癌模型,共获取癌变各阶段标本154例,其中增生25例,鳞状化生组织27例,不典型增生组织37例,原位癌组织30例,浸润癌组织25例。大鼠肺鳞癌癌变各阶段基因组DNA甲基化水平按上述顺序呈递减的趋势,癌变各阶段甲基化水平与正常对照组比较,差异具有统计学意义(P<0.01),正常和癌变支气管上皮基底层甲基化水平高于腔细胞层,差异亦具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。 结论: 大鼠肺鳞癌癌变过程中基因组DNA甲基化水平的降低,可能是介导其癌变的重要表遗传学机制。

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIM: To investigate thel changes of genomic methylation during lung carcinogenesis in Wistar rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Squamous cell carcinoma of lung was induced with 3-methylcholanthrene (MCA) and diethyinitrosamine (DEN) in iodized oil by left intra-bronchial instillation in 80 Wistar rats. The status of genomic methylation was evaluated by immunohistochemistry with anti 5-mc antibody, and the mean optical density and integrated optical density were measured by image analysis system. RESULTS: A total of 154 specimens of various phases during carcinogenesis were obtained: 25 hyperplasia, 27 squamous metaplasia, 33 dysplasia, 30 carcinoma in situ and 25 infiltrating carcinoma. The immunohistochemical scores of 5-mc were significantly decreased in hyperplasia, squamous metaplasia, dysplasia, carcinoma in situ and infiltrating carcinoma (P<0.01). 5-mc immunostaining was significantly higher in the basal cells than in the luminal cells in normal and carcinogenesis phase (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The decrease of genomic methylation level suggested that it may be an important epigenetic mechanism during carcinogenesis of lung squamous cell carcinoma in rats.
