Effect and Clinical Significance of Radiotherapy on the Expression of Multidrug Resistance-associated Protein in Cervical Cancer / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect and clinical significance of radiotherapy on the expression of multidrug resistance-associated protein(MRP) in advanced cervical cancer.METHODS:The immunohistochemistry method was applied to detect the expression of lung resistance protein(LRRP),glutathione-S-transferases-?(GST-?),thymidylate synthetase(TS) and type Ⅱ topoisomerase(TopoⅡ) in 23 patients with advanced cervical cancer before radiotherapy and after receiving 30 Gy dose radiation.RESULTS:The positive expression rates of LRRP,GST-?,TS and TopoⅡ before radiotherapy were 47.8%,56.5%,30.4% and 60.9%,respectively.The positive expression rates of LRRP,GST-? and TS in patients after 30 Gy dose radiation were 69.6%,73.9% and 73.9%,respectively,which were signficantly higher as compared before radiotherapy(P
