摘要
Telomerase activity was examined in tissue specimens from patients with gastric adenocarcinomas and gastric lymphoma using a modified TRAP (telomeric repeat amplification protocol) assay. Telomerase activity was found in 16 of 18 (89%) patients with gastric adenocarcinomas and gastric lymphoma, whereas it was not detected in a patient with noncancerous gastric mucosa. Almost all analyzed specimens had "high" and "very high" levels of telomerase activity. Telomerase is almost certainly associated with the process of malignant transformation and it can be an important marker for diagnostics of gastric cancer. © Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2011.
