AIM:To investigate screening makers for gastric cancer,we assessed the association between gastric cancer and serum pepsinogens (PGs).METHODS:The subjects comprised 450 patients with gastric cancer,111 individuals with gastric atrophy,and 961 healthy controls.Serum anti-Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) immunoglobulin G (IgG),PG Ⅰ and PG Ⅱ were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Gastric atrophy and gastric cancer were diagnosed by endoscopy and histopathological examinations.Odds ratios and 95%CIs were calculated using multivariate logistic regression.RESULTS:Rates of H.pylori infection remained high in Northeastern China.Rates of H.pylori IgG positivity were greater in the gastric cancer and gastric atrophy groups compared to the control group (69.1% and 75.7% vs 49.7%,P < 0.001).Higher levels of PG Ⅱ (15.9 μg/L and 13.9 μg/L vS 11.5 μg/l,P < 0.001) and lower PG Ⅰ /PG Ⅱ ratio (5.4 and 4.6 vs 8.4,P < 0.001) were found in patients with gastric cancer or gastric atrophy compared to healthy controls,whereas no correlation was found between the plasma PG Ⅰ concentration and risk of gastric cancer (P =0.537).In addition,multivariate logistic analysis indicated that H.pylori infection and atrophic gastritis were independent risk factors for gastric cancer.Lower plasma PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio was associated with higher risks of atrophy and gastric cancer.Furthermore,plasma PG Ⅱ level significantly correlated with H.pyloriinfected gastric cancer.CONCLUSION:Serum PG Ⅱ concentration and PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio are potential biomarkers for H.pyloriinfected gastric disease.PG Ⅱ is independently associated with risk of gastric cancer.
