摘要
目的:检测血管内皮生长因子C(VEGF-C)在胃癌组织中的表达及其与肿瘤淋巴转移的关系。方法:采用免疫组化SABC法检测56例胃癌组织中VEGF-C的表达及定位。结果:56例中18例VEGF-C染色阳性,阳性率32%,阳性物质主要位于肿瘤细胞胞浆内,在有淋巴结转移的胃癌组织中明显高于无淋巴结转移组织,低分化胃癌中的表达明显高于高、中分化胃癌。结论:VEGFC的表达与胃癌肿瘤细胞的淋巴转移密切相关。
Objective:To study the expression of VEGF C in g astric cancer and its role in lymphatic metastasis.Methods:Paraf fin embedded specimens from 56 patients with primary gastric cancer were exam ined by immunohistochemical staining.Resu lts:Positive immunohistochemical staining for VE GF C protein was observed in 18 of all patients,the positive ratio being 32%. The VEGF C antigen was identified in the cytoplasm of cancer cells.The expression of V EGF C was conspicuously higher in lymph node positive group than in node negative group.Conclusion:VEGF C may play an important role in ly mphatic metastasis of gastric cancer.
