摘要
应用定量DNA点杂交法及免疫组化法对101例石蜡包埋乳腺癌组织c-erbB2原癌基因的扩增及过度表达进行了研究,结果显示,34.7%的乳腺癌病例有c-erbB2基因扩增,23.8%的病例有该基因编码蛋白的过度表达。基因扩增及蛋白表达虽有相关关系,但并不完全相吻合。较高水平的c-erbB2蛋白过度表达与肿瘤大小及淋巴结转移数呈显著正相关。原发部位及淋巴结转移乳腺癌中,该基因及表达的改变无明显差异,说明c-erbB2基因型及表型的改变出现在肿瘤转移之前,而在转移过程中保留。
AbstractQuantitative DNA dot blot hybridization and
immunohistochemical methed were employed to de-tect amplification and
overexpression of proto-oncogene c-erbB2 in 101 paraffin-embedded
breast can-cers.The results showed that c-erbB2 was amplified and
overexpressed in 34.7%and 23.8%of ex-amined cases respectively.The
overexpression of c-erbB2 was correlated with,but not always
paralleto the gene amplification.The moderate to high-level
overexpression of c-erbB2 detected by immuno-histochemistry was
significantly associated with the size of the tamour and the nuber of
lymph nedesinvolved.No differences were found in the alteratio of
c-erbB_2 gene and its protein expression betweenprimary and
metastatic breast cancers indicating that the genotypic and
phenotypic changes of c-erbB2occured prior to and maintained in the
process of metastasis of breast cancer.
