Expression and its significance of Cyclin G2 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma / 中国耳鼻咽喉头颈外科

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To study the correlation between the expression level of Cyclin G2 and the laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.METHODS The clinical data and paraffin-embedded tumor samples of 81 patients with LSCC treated at Shenyang 463 Hospital between Jan. 2000 to Dec.2000 were retrieved.Cyclin G2 expression was analyzed immunohistochemically in tumor tissues and adjacent normal laryngeal mucosa.The relationship between Cyclin G2 expression and clinical data including age,gender,tumor stage,pathological type,and prognosis were analyzed using software SPSS12.0.RESULTS The positive rate of Cyclin G2 in laryngeal squamous cell carcinomas was 66.7% and it was correlated with tumor differentiation,lymph node metastasis(both P value less than 0.05).CONCLUSION The expression of CyclinG2 correlates with the malignant degree and development tendency of LSCC negatively.Cyclin G2 is an important biological factor affecting the prognosis.
