RESUMEN
Purpose:To detect the expression of a novel i nh ibitor gene of apoptosis,survivin,in gastric cancer and in gastric carcinoma MGC -803 cell line,also to analyze its correlation with the expression of COX-2. Methods:In 93 stomach carcinoma tissues and 20 normal gastric tissues , the expression o f survivin and COX-2 were examined by using the streptavidin-biotin peroxidase (SP) method. Results:In contrast to negative expression in normal gastric mucosa,survivin was express ed in 66 of 93(71%) cases of gastric cancer samples,Overexpression of survivin i n gastric carcinoma MGC-803 cell line was also found,There was a relationship b etween survivin gene expression and degrees of differentiation,lymph node metast ases and TNM stages.The expression of survivin was positively correlated with th at of COX-2(liner index of Pearson=0.227 P
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the expression of CD44V6 and Bcl-2 in cervical carcinoma and clinical significant in the progress of th is type of cancer. Methods A total of 153 cases of cervical carcinoma, normal cervical epithelium and cervical dysplasia were investigated for the expression of CD44V6 and Bcl-2 with immunohistochemistry SP method. Results ① The positive rate of CD44V6 was 69.44% in cervical carcinoma, 45.45% in cervical dysplasia and 8.33% in normal cervix epithelium ( P 0.05 )and pathological grades( P 0.05 ).Conclusion The overexpression of CD44V6 and Bcl-2 may be l inked to the pathogenesis, development and metastasis of cervical carcinoma. Det ermination of CD44V6 and Bcl-2 may be useful for properly estimating the progno sis of cervical carcinoma.
