ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the expressions of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B(RANK)and osteoprotegerin (OPG) and the relation of RANKL with bone- erosion in human cholesteatoma tissue.@*METHOD@#Thirty cholesteatoma and twenty normal auditory canal skin specimens were investigated. The expressions of RANKL, RANK and OPG were examined by immunohistochemistry.@*RESULT@#The overexpressions of the cytokine RANKL and RANK were found in infiltrated lymphocytes in the cholesteatoma tissue comparing with normal external meatal skin( t = 7. 758,6. 482, P <0. 05); While, the expression of OPG was significantly higher in cholesteatoma tissue comparing with normal external meatal skin. the OPG/ RANKL was decreased in cholesteatoma tissue comparing with normal external meatal skin( t = 8. 183, P < 0. 05).@*CONCLUSION@#This study revealed that the expressions level of RANKL and RANK were markedly increased in the perimatrix of cholesteatoma, which is closely related to the bone- erosion induced by cholesteatoma.
