摘要
目的 研究胸苷磷酸化酶 (TP)在不同种类癌组织中的表达 ,探讨TP与癌组织血管生成的关系。方法 采用免疫组织化学方法检测 2 5 1例癌组织和相对应的 92例正常组织TP和微血管密度 (MVD)的表达。癌组织包括 :胃癌 4 8例 ,大肠癌 5 3例 ,乳腺癌 4 7例 ,宫颈癌 5 6例 ,肺癌 4 7例 ;正常组织包括 :胃 2 5例 ,大肠 2 5例 ,宫颈 17例 ,肺 2 5例。分析癌组织和正常组织TP表达差异 ,及癌组织TP表达与癌组织MVD的关系。结果 胃癌、大肠癌、乳腺癌、宫颈癌和肺癌的TP表达阳性率分别为6 4 .6 %、6 7.9%、80 .9%、82 .1%和 6 3.8%。癌组织的TP表达阳性率显著高于正常组织 (P =0 .0 0 0 0 )。癌组织TP表达与胃癌、大肠癌、乳腺癌、宫颈癌的MVD值关系密切 (P <0 .0 0 1)。结论 TP在胃癌、大肠癌、乳腺癌、宫颈癌和肺癌组织中过度表达 ,并对胃癌、大肠癌、乳腺癌和宫颈癌的血管生成有明显促进作用。
Objective To study the thymidine phosphorylase (TP) expression in different types of cancer and its correlation with tumor microvessel density (MVD). Methods The expression of TP and MVD was detected by immunohistochemistry method. In a series of 251 cancer patients there were 48 patients with gastric cancer, 53 with colorectal cancer, 47 with breast cancer, 56 with cervical cancer, 47 with lung cancer. Normal gastric (n=25), colorectal (n=25), cervical (n=17) and lung (n=25) tissues around the cancer were also examined. Results The TP expression rate was 64.6% in gastric cancer, 67.9% in colorectal cancer, 80.9% in breast cancer, 82.1% in cervical cancer, and 63.8% in lung cancer, which was significantly higher than that in normal tissues (P=0.0000). TP expression was positively correlated with MVD in gastric, colorectal, breast, and cervical cancers. The correlation was not statistically significant in lung cancer. Conclusion This study indicates that TP overexpression in cancer may be associated with tumor angiogenesis.
