Objective: To discuss the correlation between human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) activity in peripheral blood and the development of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Methods: 114 cases of NSCLC and 35 cases of lung benign lesions were collected. hTERT mRNA expression of the patients with NSCLC or lung benign lesions were determined and analyzed by the real-time PCR. Results: The expressions of hTERT mRNA in peripheral blood of Ⅰ-Ⅳ clinical stages of lung squamous carcinoma were (0.134±0.018)×10-3, (0.185±0.044)×10-3,(0.576±0.267)×10-3 and (3.409±2.544)×10-3, excepting clinical stage Ⅰand Ⅱ,the differences among other groups were statistically significant(P<0.05); The expressions of hTERT mRNA in peripheral blood of Ⅰ-Ⅳ clinical stages of lung adenocarcinoma were(0.156±0.006)×10-3, (0.220±0.052)×10-3, (0.630±0.282)×10-3, (3.230±2.245)×10-3,excepting clinical stage Ⅰand Ⅱ,the differences among other groups were statistically significant(P<0.05); in the same clinical stage, the differences between squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma were not statistically significant(P>0.05). The level of hTERT mRNA in peripheral blood of lung benign lesions was (0.042±0.017)×10-3, and the difference between lung benign lesions and NSCLC was significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The level of hTERT mRNA of NSCLC increase significantly and it is positively associated with clinical stages, which also implies that the expression of hTERT mRNA may be benefit to make the diagnose and clinical stages of NSCLC, but it is not associated with clinical pathological type. |
