摘要
目的:从分子水平观察肝细胞癌组织HBVDNA和癌基因的表达情况及与发病的关系。方法:应用原位核酸分子杂交技术研究45例原发性肝细胞癌和25例肝硬化的石蜡切片组织中HBVDNA和n-ras、c-myc癌基因表达情况。结果:在肝细胞癌中见有n-ras和c-myc表达增强,其检出率分别为68.9%(31/45)和40.0%(18/45),高于肝硬化组(28.0%,8.0%)(P<0.05)。40%肝细胞癌病例(18/45)两种癌基因同时过量表达,45例肝细胞癌组织中有19例存在有HBVDNA序列(42.2%)并均具有n-ras或c-myc过度表达。结论:两种癌基因HBVDNA可能有激活癌基因作用,肝细胞癌发生中可能起着重要的协同作用。HBV感染与肝细胞癌发生有密切关系。
Methods:The expression of HBV DNA and oneogene n-ras,c-myc in paraffin embedded liver tissue from 45 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and 25 cases of liver cirrhosis had been studied by in situ hybridization with photobiotin labeled probes.Results:The detection rates of n-ras and c-myc were 68.9%(3l/45)and 40.0%(18/45)respectively in HCC,which were obviously higher than the expression of n-ras and c-myc in tissues from liver cirrhosis(P<0.05).In HCC group,18 out of 45 patients(40.0%)were positive for n-ras and c-myc simultaneously.It implied that the cooperating activity of n-ras and c-myc might be responsible for the malignant phenotypic alteration in some or most cases of HCC.The detection rates of HBV DNA was 42.2%(19/45)in HCC.Conclusion:The overexpression of n-ras or c-myc was found in all HBV DNA positive cases.These results confirm the close association between HCC and HBV infection.
