Expression of survivin and NF-kappaB in peripheral T-cell lymphoma and its significance / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to explore the expression of survivin and NF-kappaB in the peripheral T-cell lymphoma and its significance. Immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the expressions of survivin and NF-kappaB in 26 cases of lymphosarcoma. 30 cases of benign reactive lymphohistiocytosis were selected as control tor analysis. The results showed that the expression of survivin in 21 patients with lymphoma was positive, the positive rate reached to 80.8%; the expression of NF-kappaB in 17 cases was positive, the positive rate reached to 65.4%. Compared with the control group, the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.01). In the experimental group, the expression level of survivin was positively correlated with the positive rate of NF-kappaB. It is concluded that survivin and NF-kappaB widely expressed in lymphoma cells and they play an important role in enhancing proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis of tumor cells.
