Abstract

ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of Hepcidin and Neogenin in tissue from patients with colorectal cancer, to evaluate the relationship between Hepcidin and Neogenin with clinical features, and to study their relationship with anemia.MethodsImmuno- histochemical method was used to detect the expression of Hepcidin and Neogenin in 62 cases of colorectal cancer. At the same time, the relationship between them and their relationship with clinical characteristics and anemia were analyzed.ResultsThe expression of Hepcidin was related to T stage (P<0.05), but not with age, gender, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis. The expression of Neogenin was not correlated with T stage and lymph node metastasis, age, gender, and distant metastasis (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of Hepcidin and Neogenin between anemia group and non-anemia group. There was no correlation between Hepcidin and Neogenin (r =-0.04, P>0.05).ConclusionThe expression of Hepcidin in colorectal cancer was related to the T stage, and had no correlation with Neogenin. The expression of Neogenin could not be used as an objective index to reflect the biological behavior of colorectal cancer.
