To investigate the expression of GW112 and GRIM-19 in colorectal cancer tissues.Immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitative PCR were used to simultaneously detect the levels of expression of GW112 and GRIM-19 in colorectal cancer tissues and normal colorectal tissues in 39 cases.Expression of GW112 protein and mRNA were significantly higher in colorectal cancer tissues than in normal tissues (p<0.05). Expression of GRIM-19 protein and mRNA were significantly lower in colorectal cancer tissues than in normal tissues (p<0.05). GW112 gene mRNA copy number(GAPDH gene mRNA copy number were 0.53 ± 0.21 and 1.81 ± 0.65 in normal colorectal tissues and colorectal cancer tissues respectively, and GRIM-19 gene mRNA copy number/GAPDH gene mRNA copy number were 1.15 ± 0.29 and 1.74 ± 0.0.44 in colorectal cancer tissues and normal colorectal tissues, respectively. Expression of GW112 gene mRNA was significantly higher in colorectal cancer tissues than in normal tissues (p<0.05), and expression of GRIM- 19 gene mRNA was significantly lower in colorectal cancer tissues than in normal tissues (p<0.05).High expression of GW112 in colorectal cancer tissues and reduced expression of GRIM-19 in colorectal cancer tissues may be associated with abnormal proliferation of cancer cells and are possibly one of the reasons for development of colorectal cancer, which can provide effective targets for clinical treatment of this disease.
