Expression of cyclooxygenase-2 in gastric carcinoma and its relationship with patho-parameters / 吉林大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) in human gastric carcinoma and to identify the significance of COX2 expression. Methods COX-2 protein expressions were deteced in 12 nomal gastric mucosa and 40 gastric carcinoma tissues by immunohistochemistry.Results The expression of COX-2 in gastric carcinoma tissues(87.5%) was significantly higher than that in normal gastric mucosa(25.0%)(P
