摘要
目的探讨整合蛋白α5亚基与原发性肝癌的关系。方法应用免疫组化技术(ABC法)和Northernblot杂交检测整合蛋白α5亚基在原发性肝癌中的表达。结果发现在79例癌与癌周组织α5阳性率分别为32.9%和81.0%,两者间差异有显著性(P<0.01)。直径≤5cm的肝癌α5阳性率高于直径>10cm的肝癌(55.6%比10.0%,P<0.01),分化较好的肝癌α5阳性率高于分化不良者(40.6%比16.0%,P<0.05),已发生明确肝内转移(包括肝内播散和门静脉癌栓形成)的肝癌α5阳性率低于未发生肝内转移者(20.6%比42.2%,P<0.05)。α5亚基表达与患者年龄、血清甲胎蛋白水平、乙型肝炎病毒感染、肝硬化有无等因素均无明显相关(P>0.05)。Northernblot杂交结果也同时显示,非侵袭性肝癌α5表达高于侵袭性肝癌。结论整合蛋白α5低表达与肝癌增大、分化程度低、侵袭转移发生等恶性表型相关,可能对这些恶性表型起负性调节作用。
Objective To investigate the relation between integrin α 5 subunit and malignant phenotypes of hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods Seventy nine formalin fixed sections and ten blocks of fresh HCC tissue were obtained. The integrin α 5 subunit was measured with immunohistochemistry assay (ABC method) and Northern blot analysis. Results In 79 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma, tumor tissue had lower expression than adjacent non tumor tissue (32.9% vs 81.0%, P <0.01). The α 5 positive rate in small HCC was higher than large HCC (55.6% vs 10.0%, P <0.05). HCC with good differentation and capsulation and without intrahepatic metastasis expressed higher α 5 than those with poor differentiation, no capsulation and intrahepatic metastasis. Similar result is also confirmed by Northern blot analysis. Conclusion Our study indicated that integrin α 5 subunit expression was correlated with the growth, differentation, invasiveness, metastasis and progression of HCC. It was possible that integrin α 5 subunit is a negative regulator of these malignant phenotypes of HCC.
