摘要
目的:研究VEGF和CD105标记的MVD在下咽鳞状细胞癌中的表达,并研究其与肿瘤临床特性的关系,探讨两者在下咽鳞状细胞癌发生、发展过程中的作用及其相关性。方法:采用免疫组化PV-9000二步法,检测50例下咽鳞状细胞癌及50例正常状况下咽黏膜中的VEGF和CD105标记的MVD的表达水平,应用Image-ProPlus图像分析软件测定免疫组化图像的平均光密度(mean optical density,MOD)。结果:VEGF蛋白在下咽鳞状细胞癌及正常下咽黏膜中的表达率分别为74.00%和30.00%,差异有统计学意义(P=0.002),VEGF蛋白的表达在不同TNM分期、组织学分级和是否淋巴转移组间的阳性表达差异有统计学意义,均P<0.05;CD105标记的MVD在下咽鳞癌组织中的计数(37.10±5.95)显著高于正常下咽黏膜(8.70±3.34),P=0.000,MVD计数在不同TNM分期、组织学分级和是否淋巴转移组间的阳性表达差异具有统计学意义,均P<0.05;VEGF、MVD在不同年龄、性别、吸烟史和原发部位的下咽鳞癌组别间,表达均差异无统计学意义,P>0.05;下咽鳞癌中VEGF表达和MVD计数呈显著正相关(r=0.582,P=0.000)。结论:VEGF和MVD的高表达提示两者对肿瘤新生血管的形成起重要作用;同时,VEGF和MVD在下咽鳞状细胞癌组织中的高表达具有显著正相关性,表明两者协同促进下咽鳞癌的生长和进展。联合检测VEGF和MVD可能对综合评估下咽鳞癌的生物学特性和临床特点有指导意义。
Objective:To detect the expression of VEGF and MVD in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, explore their associa- tion with elinicopathological characteristics and role in the development and progression of Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma as well as their interrelationships. Methods: The expression of VEGF and MVD in 50 specimens of Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carci- noma and 50 specimens of normal hypopharyngeal tissues were evaluated by immunohistochemistry PV-9000 two-step methods. Image- ProPlus software was used to determine the mean optical density (MOD) of immunohistochemical Image. Results: The overexpression rate of VEGF was significantly higher in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (74.00%) than in normal hypopharyngeal tissues (30.00%) ,P = 0. 001, and its overexpression showed statistical differences in different TNM stage, pathological grade and cervical lymphnode metastasis groups (P 〈 0.05 ) ;The counting of MVD-CD105 was significantly higher in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcino- ma(37.10 ± 5.95 ) than in normal hypopharyngeal tissues ( 35.00% ) ,P = 0. 000, and between different TNM stage, pathological grade and cervical lymphnode metastasis groups,its counting showed statistical differences ( P 〈 0.05 ) ;The expressions of two factors were not significantly different in groups of different ages,genders,tabacco hobby, and the primary site of tumor( P 〉 0.05 ) ; The expression ofVEGF was positively associated with the counting of MVD in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma( r = 0. 382 ,P = 0. 000). Conclu- sion: VEGF,MVD may play important roles in tumor angiogenesis; meanwhile, highly positive correlation between VEGF and MVI) may cooperatively promote tumor growth and progression; combined detection of VEGF and MVD might be significantly helpful to com- prehensively assess the biological characteristics and clinical features of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
