摘要
应用同一组织连续石蜡切片免疫组化染色技术,检测了AFP、CEA与P21 ̄(ras)在人肝细胞癌及其癌旁肝组织中的免疫定位关系,并探讨了AFP与P21 ̄(ras)在肝癌辅助诊断中的意义。结果显示(1)AFP及P21 ̄(ras)较CEA与肝细胞癌的关系更为密切,半数以上肝癌可同时表达AFP与P21 ̄(ras)两种抗原,且二者在组织中的阳性分布极相似;(2)癌组织AFP的阳性率显著高于癌旁,而P21 ̄(ras)与之相反。由此可见,AFP作为肝细胞癌相对特异的标志物用于肝癌的辅助诊断优于P21 ̄(ras);癌旁同时表达AFP与P21 ̄(ras)的肝细胞很可能是已经启动的、尚未产生表型转化的、已具备肿瘤性增殖能力的癌前细胞群。
he expression of P21,AFP and CEA were detected in human hepatocellular carcinoma and its sur- rounding nontumor tissues by immunohistochemical staining on serial sections. The significance of AFP and P21 in HCC auxillary diagnosis was discussed.The results are as follows:(1)AFP and P21 were more closely related with HCC than CEA. Both AFP and P21 were expressed simultaneously in more than half the cases.The distribution of these two antigens in HCC was similar.(2)The positive incidence of AFP in tumor tissues was higher than that in surrounding nontumor tissues,but vice versa for P21. Based on the results of this study,we regard that AFP is a relatively specific marker of HCC, better than P21 in auxillary diagnosis of HCC. The hepatocytes which surround the tumor and can simultaneously express AFP and P21,are likely to be precancerous cells which have been initiated and possess the ability of neoplastic growth but lack phenotype transfomation.
