Expression of transforming growth factor alpha messenger RNA in the normal and neoplastic gastro-intestinal tract.

Abstract:

:The presence of TGF alpha mRNA has been reported previously to occur in primary colon cancers. We report the expression of the normal 4.5 kb TGF alpha transcript in the mucosa of the normal human gastro-intestinal tract from oesophagus through to colon. The highest levels of human TGF alpha mRNA occurred in the duodenum but significant levels were present in all of the mucosa. Similarly, in the rat gastro-intestinal tract, TGF alpha transcripts were detected in the lower gastro-intestinal tract mucosa. The relative abundance of the TGF alpha mRNA appeared to decrease in distal regions of the gastro-intestinal tract. The level of the TGF alpha mRNA was similar in both the normal and the neoplastic colon tissue. Similarly, in 2 patients with carcinomas, the TGF alpha mRNA was expressed at similar levels in the tumour and in adjacent mucosa. Although TGF alpha mRNA is associated with transformed cells from the gastro-intestinal tract, the presence of this mRNA at equivalent concentrations in normal mucosa suggests that over-production of TGF alpha is not an essential feature of carcinomas in the gastro-intestinal tract.
