タイトル Detection of transcript for brain-type fatty Acid-binding protein in tumor and urine of patients with renal cell carcinoma.
ジャーナル Urology
Abstract OBJECTIVES:To clarify the gene expression patterns of fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) and evaluate it as a potential marker for the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). RCC is the most common renal neoplasm.
METHODS:The expression of eight FABP genes in normal human tissues, tumor cell lines, and surgically resected RCC tissues (n = 54) was evaluated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, the gene expression of FABPs in the urine of healthy volunteers (n = 12) and patients with RCC (n = 5) was investigated.
RESULTS:In these results, the carcinoma tissues but not the noncancerous (normal) parts of the kidney samples resected from patients with RCC expressed the transcript for brain-type FABP (B-FABP), indicating that expression of the B-FABP gene is a novel marker for RCC. Furthermore, the B-FABP cDNA fragment was not amplified by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction in the urine samples of healthy donors or patients with RCC after surgical operation. However, B-FABP cDNA was amplified in the patients' urine samples collected before surgery.
CONCLUSIONS:This novel method can be used as a powerful ancillary in the diagnosis of RCC.
