瘦素和瘦素受体在食管癌中的表达及其意义

目的 探讨瘦素及其受体与食管癌发生发展的关系.方法 采用免疫组织化学染色方法检测52例食管癌和49例正常食管组织中瘦素及受体的表达,并分析其与临床病理组织学各参数之间的关系.结果 52例食管癌组织中瘦素与受体的表达率分别为78.8%(41/52)、82.7%(43/52).49例正常的食管组织两者的表达率分别为58.3%(28/49)、59.2%(29/49).瘦素及其受体在食管癌与正常食管组织中的表达差异均有统计学意义(P＜0.05),瘦素及其受体的表达与部位、肿瘤大小、组织学、淋巴结的转移及TNM分期明显相关(P均＜0.05).结论 瘦素及其受体的双重表达在食管癌的发生发展过程中起一定的促进作用.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the role of leptin and leptin receptor in carcinogensis and development of esophageal carcinoma. Methods The expression of leptin and leptin receptor was detected in 52 cases of esophageal carcinoma tissues and 49 cases of normal esophageal tissues by immunohistochemistry. The correlation between their expression and clinicopathological parameters was also analysized. Results The expression rate of leptin and leptin receptor in esophageal carcinoma was 78. 8% (41/52) and 82.7% (43/52) respectively, and the rate in normal esophagus was 58.3% (28/49) and 59.2% (29/49) respectively. The expression rate of leptin and leptin receptor both had statistically significantly differences between esophageal carcinoma and normal esophagus tissues (P ＜ 0. 05). The expression rate of leptin was associated with position, tumor size, differentiation, lymphatic metastasis and TNM stage (P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Leptin and leptin receptor were dually expressed in esophageal carcinoma.They played important roles in the process of carcinogensis and development of esophageal carcinoma.
