Abstract: Objective To investigate the expression of DNA-methyltransferases 3B(DNMT3B)gene in human pancreatic carcinoma and to evaluate its relationship with elinicopathologic parameters.Methods 42 samples of pancreatic carcinoma tissues and 42 para-carcinoma tissues and 10 normal pancreatic tissues were collected and the expression of DNMT3B mRNA and protein Was detected by real.time PCR and immunohistochemistry techniques.Results The expression of DNMT3B mRNA(RQ level)in human pancreatic carcinoma tissues and para-carcinoma tissues,normal pancreatic tissues was 9.4±5.9,1.02±0.71 and 0,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The rate of expression of DNMT3B protein in human pancreatic carcinoma tissues,para-carcinoma tissues and normal pancreatic tissues were 83.3%,14.3%and 10%,respectively,and the difference wag also statistically significant(P<0.01).The expression of DNMT3B mRNA correlated significantly with clinical staging,differentiation degree of the tumor and lymph node metastasis(P<0.01 or P<0.05).The expression of DNMT3B protein correlated significantly with the location ofthe tumor and lymph node metastasis(P<0.01 or P<0.05).The expression of DNMT3B mRNA and protein Was not assecimed with age,sex,neural invasion,tumor size,sernm CEA and CA19-9.Conclusions Highly expressed DNMT3B mRNA and protein may indicate the lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis in human pancreatic carcinoma.
