BACKGROUND: The aims of this study were to investigate the expressions and significance of the antiapoptotic genes Bag-1 and Bcl-2 in colon cancer and to evaluate their relationship. METHODS: The expressions of Bag-1 and Bcl-2 were examined in 128 colon cancer and 20 normal colon tissue samples by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical technique (streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method). RESULTS: Bag-1 and Bcl-2 were expressed in colorectal cancer tissues but not in normal colorectal tissues by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The expression of Bag-1 in colon cancer was closely correlated with pathologic grade, distance metastasis, Duke stage, and prognosis, but it had no effect on the pathologic type, tumor diameter, depth of invasion, and lymphoid node metastasis of the cancer. By contrast, Bcl-2 had no significant correlation with all the clinical and pathologic factors. There was a positive correlation between Bag-1 and Bcl-2 in the development of colon cancer. CONCLUSIONS: High expressions of Bag-1 and Bcl-2 proteins in colon cancer were found. They might be regarded as biomarkers for the diagnosis of the early stage of colon cancer. In addition, they have significant relevance for the prognosis of colon cancer. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
