Popis: | This study was conducted to evaluate the prognostic significance of CD44v5 and CD44v6 in resectable colorectal cancer. Membranous CD44v5 and CD44v6 levels were measured by an immunoenzymatic assay in tumors and surrounding mucosal samples obtained from 105 patients with resectable colorectal carcinomas. There were no significant differences of CD44v5 levels between tumors [median: 3.2 (range: 0.9–83.5) ng/mg protein) and surrounding mucosal samples (3 (3–146.2) ng/mg protein]. However, tumor samples showed significantly higher CD44v6 levels [19.5 (2.2–562.9) ng/mg protein] than mucosal samples [5 (5–230) ng/mg protein] (P=0.0001). Patients with higher CD44v5 or CD44v6 content in tumor samples had a considerably shorter relapse-free survival (P |
