Aim.The evaluation of the clinical relevance of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) in bone marrow (BM) of patients with gastric cancer (GC) and their association with primary tumor hypoxia.Patients and Methods.89 resected specimens were used. DTCs were detected using immunocytochemistry, the level of tumor hypoxia using NMR spectroscopy, CD68, CD34, VEGF, and VEGFR-1 (Flt-1) expression using immunohistochemistry, and MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity using zymography.Results.DTCs were detected in 51.4% of GC patients with M0. There was significant correlation between frequency of DTCs in BM and level of tumor hypoxia (P<0.024). DTCs presence was accompanied with Flt-1 positivity of BM. The correlation between DTCs and tumor VEGF expression in patients with M0was shown (P<0.0248). Activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in BM was linked with DTCs in patients with M0(P<0.05). Overall survival (OS) of patients with M0and DTCs was shorter than that of patients without DTCs (patients in both groups were operated only) (P=0.0497).Conclusion.Appearance of DTCs correlates with hypoxia level in primary tumors. Detection of DTCs in GC patients may be relevant indicator for adjuvant chemotherapy using.

Early detection of disseminated tumor cells in the peripheral blood of patients with early stage gastric cancer could help to improve the outcome after tumor resection. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic significance of tumor-related mRNA for the detection of circulating tumor cells in gastric cancer patients by a reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. We simultaneously analyzed human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), cytokeratin-19 (CK-19), cytokeratin-20 (CK-20) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA (messenger RNA) expression in the peripheral blood of 42 gastric cancer patients and 30 healthy individuals. Additionally, analyses were carried out for the correlation of these four molecular markers with patients’ clinicopathologic features, as well as the occurrence of postoperative recurrence/metastasis. Among 42 gastric cancer patients, the prevalence of mRNA for hTERT, CK-19, CK-20, and CEA was 61.9% (26/42), 69% (29/42), 61.9% (26/42), and 78.6% (33/42), respectively. All 30 healthy individuals were negative for hTERT and CEA mRNA, while two were positive for either CK-19 mRNA or CK-20 mRNA. Positive CEA mRNA was significantly correlated with tumor size (p= 0.008), vessel invasion (p= 0.001), depth of tumor invasion (p= 0.007), lymph node metastasis (p< 0.001), and TNM stage (p< 0.001). In addition, the multivariate logistic regression demonstrated that CEA mRNA expression was an independent and significant predictor for postoperative recurrence/metastasis (p= 0.032). Our findings suggest that CEA mRNA may be a more reliable marker than hTERT, CK-19 and CK-20 for the detection of circulating cancer cells in gastric cancer patients' peripheral blood. Patients with positive CEA mRNA expression in peripheral blood have a significantly higher risk of postoperative recurrence/metastasis.

Aim: To evaluate the association between the presence of CD8 and CD45RO T lymphocytes in bone marrow (BM), disseminated tumor cells (DTCs), tumor hypoxia and their impact on disease outcome. Material and methods: 91 naïve gastric cancer (GC) patients were enrolled into the study. DTCs, CD8- and CD45RO-positive T lymphocytes in BM were detected using immunocytochemistry. All patients were thoroughly informed about the study that was approved by the local ethics committee. Statistical analyses were done using NCSS2000/PASS2000 and Prism, version 4.03 software packages. Results: It was detected that 80.5 and 81.3% of patients had CD8- and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM, respectively. When DTCs were detected in BM, the number of patients with CD8-and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM were 86.1 and 84.4%, respectively. It was also determined that the number of patients with DTCs in BM with categories M0 and M1 and with CD8- and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM were 86.2 and 85.7%, 85.7 and 80.0%, respectively. The association between DTCs in BM and presence of CD8 and CD45RO T cells lymphocytes in BM was not found. At the same time it was shown the association between presence of CD8 and CD45RO T lymphocytes and survival. The presence of CD8- and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM were accompanied with significantly longer overall survival of patients compared to that of patients without CD8- and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM. Conclusion: Patients with the presence of CD8- and CD45RO-positive T cells in BM demonstrated better survival of GC patients than those with the absence of these cells in BM. It may be suggested that tumor cells in BM are controlled in a dormant state by T cells in BM, in particular by CD8-positive T cells.
