摘要
目的探讨环氧化酶-2在不同表皮肿瘤中的表达及意义。方法选择鳞状细胞癌8例、基底细胞上皮瘤10例、Bowen病8例和脂溢性角化病12例,运用免疫组化方法观察肿瘤细胞中环氧化酶-2的表达。结果与正常表皮相比,环氧化酶-2在鳞状细胞癌、Bowen病、基底细胞上皮瘤中的表达明显上调,尤其以鳞状细胞癌中的表达最强。而环氧化酶-2在脂溢性角化病中的表达与正常人皮肤的表达近似。结论环氧化酶-2表达的上调可能在表皮肿瘤的发生发展中发挥一定作用。
Objective To explore the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in different epidermal tumors and its significance. Method The expression of COX-2 was detected by immunohistochemical staining of skin specimens from 10 cases of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), 8 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), 8 Bowen′s disease (BD), 12 seborrheic keratosis (SK) and 10 normal volunteers. Results Compared with normal epidermal cells, COX-2 expression was significantly increased in BCC, SCC and BD cells. Especially, COX-2 expression in SCC was the most intensive. COX-2 expression in SK cells was similar to that of normal epidermal cells. Conclusion The up-regulation of COX-2 expression may play a potential role in the pathogenesis of epidermal tumors.
