METHODS: Paraffin-embedded tissue samples of 25 patients (18 males and 7 females) with hepatocellular carcinoma were collected from 22 pathology centers in Tehran during 2000-2001, and stained using immunohistochemistry method (avidin-biotin-peroxidase) for detection of p53, cyclinD1, RB1, c-los and N-ras proteins. RESULTS: Six (24%), 5 (20%), 12 (48%) and 2 samples (8%) were positive for p53, cyclinDl, C-los and N-ras expression, respectively. Twenty-two (88%) samples had alterations in the (31 cell-cycle checkpoint protein expression (RBI or cyclinD1). P53 positive samples showed a higher (9 times) risk of being positive for RBI protein than p53 negative samples. Loss of expression of RBI in association with p53 over-expression was observed in 4 (66.7%) of 6 samples. Loss of expression of RBI was seen in all cyclinD1 positive, 20 (90.9%) N-ras negative, and ii (50%) C-fos positive samples, respectively. CyclinD1 positive samples showed a higher (2.85 and 4.75 times) risk of being positive for c-los and N-ras expression than cyclinD1 negative samples. CONCLUSION: The expression of p53, RB1 and c-los genes appears to have a key role in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma in Iran. Simultaneous overexpression of these genes is significantly associated with their loss of expression during development of hepatocellular carcinoma.展开更多
