摘要
目的:研究Galectin-3蛋白与膀胱移行细胞癌之间的关系。方法:采用免疫组织化学二步法检测Galectin-3蛋白在膀胱移行细胞癌以及正常膀胱黏膜上的表达,并对膀胱癌组织进行系统的病理学检查和分析。结果:①膀胱移行细胞癌上的Galectin-3蛋白表达强度明显高于正常对照组(P<0.05)。②膀胱低分化移行细胞癌中Galectin-3蛋白表达高于高分化移行细胞癌。③复发的膀胱移行细胞癌中Galectin-3蛋白表达强度高于无复发的膀胱移行细胞癌。结论:①Galectin-3蛋白的表达量与膀胱移行细胞癌的恶性程度呈正相关。②Galectin-3蛋白表达量高的膀胱移行细胞癌容易复发。
Objeetive:To investigate the relationship between galectin-3 expression and the biological behavior of human bladder transitional-cell carcinomas. Methods:The expression of Galectin-3 in 94 cases of bladder transitional-cell carcinomas and 10 normal urothelium samples were evaluated immunohistochemically. Results : (1)The expression levels of galectin-3 were increased in most tumors compared with normal urothelium, (P〈0.05). (2)The expression of Galectin-3 in poorly differentiated tumor was higher than that in well-differentiated cancer. (3)The expression of Galectin-3 in recurring tumor was higher than that in non-recurring tumor. Conelusions:(1)The galectin- 3 could determine the degree of malignancy of human bladder transitional-cell carcinomas. (2)The bladder transitional-cell carcinomas that express higher level of galectin-3 recur easily.
