摘要
目的:检测claudin-4与E—cadherin在胃癌中的表达,探讨其表达的意义及关系。方法:本实验以180例胃癌标本作为研究对象,50例正常胃粘膜组织作为对照,应用流式细胞术分析,分别检测claudin-4与E—cadherin的表达,分析其在不同临床病理特征中的表达意义。结果:claudin-4与E—cadherin在胃癌中的表达均明显低于正常胃粘膜组织,claudin-4与E—cadherin在不同肿瘤直径、不同浸润深度及有无淋巴结转移的比较中,差别有统计学意义。胃癌中claudin-4与E—cadherin的表达呈正相关。结论:claudin-4与E—cadherin参与胃癌的发生发展,联合检测可能对判断预后有一定价值。
Objective: To detect the expressions of claudin -4 and E - cadherin protein, investigate their significance and relationship in gastric carcinoma. Methods: The study included 180 cases of gastric carcinoma as observation group and 50 cases of normal gastric mucosa as control group. We detected the expressions of claudin -4 and E -cadherin in different clinical characters by FCM. Results: The expressions of claudin -4 and E - cadherin were lower in the gastric carinoma than in control group. Comparisons of the control group, the expressions of claudin -4 and E -cadherin were correlated with tumor volume, invasion depth and lymph node metastasis. There were posi- tive relationship between the claudin - 4 and E - eadherin in the neoplasm. Conclusions : The abnormal expressions of claudin - 4 and E - cadherin may promote the occurrence and development in gastric carcinoma. The joint detection of claudin - 4 and E - cadherin should be helpful to predict the prognosis in gastric carcinoma.
