Abstract Objective To investigate the level of IL-17 and IL-23 in peripheral blood of patients with rectal cancer to analyze their association with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis before and after radiotherapy.Methods Blood samples were collected from 24 patients with rectal cancer before and after radiotherapy, and the levels of IL-17 and IL-23 in peripheral blood of the patients were detected by ELISA. All patients received 50Gy radiotherapy after surgery.Results Protein expression level of IL-17 was correlated with tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis in rectal cancer patients (P<0.05), whereas serum IL-23 level showed correlated only with lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). Significant differences were observed between serum IL-17 and IL-23 levels in rectal cancer patients before and after radiotherapy (P<0.05). Serum levels of IL-17 and IL-23 can be used to effectively diagnose tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis of rectal cancer patients. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the expression of IL-23 may be independent risk factor for poor prognosis (P<0.05).Conclusion The concentration of IL-17 and IL-23 obviously increased in peripheral blood of patients with rectal cancer, both of them were correlated with radiotherapy. Detection of IL-17 and IL-23 levels has certain clinical significance in the diagnosis and prognosis of rectal cancer patients.
