Expression of survivin gene in human primary hepatic carcinoma and its relotionship with apoptosis / 第二军医大学学报

ABSTRACT

The expressions of survivin,PcNA and Bcl xl were detected in 68 patients with pramary hepatic careinoma(HCC) and adjacent tissues and 12 cases of normal hepatic tissues by immunohistochemical (IHC) EnVision and Tunel method.The relationship between survivin gene expression and apoptosis index(AI),proliferation index(PI) and apoptosis inhibition factors were studied.The positive rate of survivin and Bcl xl expression were 58.8%(40/86) and 48.5%(33/68) in HCC,5.88%(4/68) and 36.8%(25/68) in adjacent tissues,0 (0/12) and 25%(3/12) in normal hepatic tissues.The expression of Survivin and Bcl xl are mainly in cell membrane and cytoplasm.Survivin expression is related to metastasis of HCC ( P
