Expression of CD44v6 in Gastric Carcinoma and Its Clinical Significance / 中国普外基础与临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the relationship between expression of CD44v6 in gastric carcinoma and neoplasm metastasis and prognosis. Methods Expression of CD44v6 in 52 cases of gastric carcinoma was assayed by flow immunocytometry, and its relation with clinical pathology and prognosis was analyzed. Results In 52 cases of gastric carcinoma tissue, the positive rate of CD44v6 expression was 67.31%(35/52); but the positive rate of CD44v6 expression in normal gastric tissue was 25.00% (13/52). The positive rate of expression was significantly different (P
