ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the expression of Rho GTPases signaling pathway in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC)and its clinical significance.Methods:
Molecules of Rho GTPases signaling pathway including RhoC, E-cadherin, MMP-2, and MMP-9 were detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry in 36 specimens of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The relationship between RhoC mRNA and prognosis of patients was evaluated by using Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis.Results:
There was a significant difference in the expression of RhoC mRNA between NSCLC tissues and para-cancerous tissues (P0.05).Conclusion:
Over-expression of RhoC mRNA is closely correlated with the tumorigenesis and progression of NSCLC, and may be related with invasion and metastasis of NSCLC early to middle stage.
