The Expression and Significance of IGF-1 and survivin in Reactive and Neoplastic Astrocytes / 医学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the difference of IGF-1,Bcl-2,survivin and Ki-67 protein expression in reactive and neoplastic astrocytes and the significance of them.Methods Immunohistochemistry and tissue microarray techniques were used to determinate the expression of IGF-1,Bcl-2,survivin and Ki-67 protein in normal brain tissues, astrocytes proliferation,low-grade astrocytomas, and high-grade astrocytomas.Results The expression of IGF-1,Bcl-2,survivin and Ki-67 protein were all negative in control group.The positive expression rates of them in reactive astrocytes were 28.9%, 26.7%, 26.7% and 22.2%,respectvely; and in low-grade astrocytomas were 63.8%, 50.0%, 53.2%,70.2%; in high-grade astrocytomas were 88.9%, 79.2%, 88.1%,95.2%.IGF-1,Bcl-2,survivin and Ki-67 all had significant difference among the three experimental groups(P
