ABSTRACT
To investigate the relationship of between p21wAF1 and PCNA expression and the patients' prognosis in breast carcinoma. MethodExpression of p21wAF1 and PCNA was determined by S-P immunohistochemical technique in 152 patients with breast carcinoma. ResultsPositive immunostaining of p21WAf1was detected in 61(40.1% ) primary breast carcinoma, in which 43(70.5% ) were low expression, and 18(29.5% ) over expression of 152 PCNA positive cases, 69(45% ) expressed with low index and 83(55% )expressed with high index. p21wAf1 expression level was correlated with tubule formation (γs= 0.341, P<0.01 ),nuclear atypia(γs=0.516, P<0.01), mitosis(γs=0.351, P<0.01)and histological grade(γs=0.415, P<0.01)in breast cancer tissue. Univariate analysis demonstrated less disease-free survival in patients with higher p21WAF1 (x2 = 6.92, P< 0.01 ) and PCNA (x2 = 5.14, P<0.05)expression than in those with lower expression. The survival term of the patients with p21WAF1 -/PCNA low index, p21wAF1 +/PCNA low index, p21WAF1 +/PCNA high index and p21WAF1 -/PCNA high index groups was successively shortened. Conclusions( 1 ) Combined detection of p21wAF1/PCNA is helpful to judge the proliferating activity of the tumor cells and the patients prognosis. (2) Different expression level of p21WAF1in breast carcinoma is probably related the different regulating directions.
