METHODS: Expression of p57kip2, PCNA and p53 in tumor tissues from 32 patients with HCC and 10 liver tissues of normal persons was detected with Elivision immunohistochemical technique. RESULTS: The p57kip2 protein positive-expression rate in HCC was 56.25%, lower than that in normal tissues (100%, P<0.05). The reduced expression of p57kip2 protein correlated significantly with moderate or low differentiation of tumor cells (P = 0.007 <0.05), high clinical stage (P= 0.041 <0.05) and poor prognosis (P= 0.036 <0.05), but did not correlate significantly with metastasis, tumor size, level of AFP and age (P>0.05). The PCNA positive-expression rate was 56.25%, which was correlated significantly with the expression of p57kip2 (P= 0.025<0.05). The p53 positive-expression rate was 46.88%, which was not correlated significantly with the expression of p57kip2 (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: There is a marked loss or absence of p57kip2 expression and high expression of PCNA in HCC, which are involved in carcinogenesis and development of HCC. The p57kip2 and p53 may induce apoptosis via different mechanisms.展开更多

Methods： The expression of p27 and p57 were evaluated in 10 normal skin tissues, 25 Bowen＇s disease （BD） and 30 cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma （SCC） with immunohistochemistrical staining. Results： The levels of p27 protein expression in SCC were dramatically lower than those in normal skin and BD （P 〈 0.057. The levels of p57 protein expression in SCC were dramatically lower than those in normal skin and BD （P 〈 0.057. There was a posilk, e correlation between p27 and p57 （r = 0.469, P 〈 0.057. Conclusion： The decrease of p27 and skp2 may be used for considering the biological behavior of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and Bowen＇s disease.展开更多

METHODS： The expression of p57^kip2, cyclinE protein and PCNA in tumor tissues and adjacent tissues from 32 patients with pancreatic cancer was detected by SP immunohistochemical technique. RESULTS： The positive expression rate of p57^kip2 protein in tumor tissues was 46.9%, which was lower than that in adjacent pancreatic tissues （χ^2 = 5.317, P〈0.05）. p57^kip2 protein positive expression remarkably correlated with tumor cell differentiation （P〈0.05）, but not with lymph node metastasis （P〉0.05）. The positive expression rate of cyclinE protein in tumor tissues was 68.8%, which was higher than that in adjacent pancreatic tissues （χ^2 = 4.063, P〈0.05）. CyclinE protein positive expression significantly correlated with tumor cell differentiation and lymph node metastasis （P〈0.05）. The positive expression rate of PCNA in the tumor tissues was 71.9%, which was higher than that in adjacent pancreatic tissues （χ^2 = 5.189, P〈0.05）. PCNA positive expression remarkably correlated with tumor cell differentiation and lymph node metastasis （P〈0.05）. CONCLUSION： The decreased expression of p57^kip2 and/or overexpression of cyclinE protein and PCNA may contribute to the occurrence and progression of pancreatic cancer. p57^kip2, cyclinE protein, and PCNA play an important role in occurrence and progression of pancreatic cancer.展开更多
