目的探讨EZH2(enhancer of zeste homolog 2,EZH2)基因在肾透明细胞癌中的表达及其临床意义。方法采用免疫组织化学法分别检测正常肾脏组织(8例)及肾透明细胞癌标本(58例)中EZH2蛋白的表达。结果正常肾脏组织与肾透明细胞癌标本EZH2蛋...目的探讨EZH2(enhancer of zeste homolog 2,EZH2)基因在肾透明细胞癌中的表达及其临床意义。方法采用免疫组织化学法分别检测正常肾脏组织(8例)及肾透明细胞癌标本(58例)中EZH2蛋白的表达。结果正常肾脏组织与肾透明细胞癌标本EZH2蛋白表达率分别为12.5%(1/8)、74.1%(43/58)(P<0.05)。肾透明细胞癌标本中,局部进展性肾癌(Ⅲ)与转移性肾癌(Ⅳ)EZH2蛋白表达明显高于局限性肾癌(Ⅰ+Ⅱ)(P<0.05);高分化肾癌、中分化肾癌及低分化肾癌EZH2蛋白表达不具有显著性差异。结论EZH2在肾透明细胞癌明显高表达,提示其与肾透明细胞癌的发生、发展密切相关,对于肾透明细胞癌的早期诊断及判断预后可能有重要的意义。展开更多
