摘要
应用免疫组化方法,对101例有8年随访结果的乳腺癌病例,进行了nm23基因蛋白表达的检测。结果显示,nm23基因蛋白表达与血行转移、淋巴结转移的发生呈负相关,与其它临床指标无关。生存率分析表明:nm23基因高表达组患者的生存率明显高于低表达组(P<0.05);腋淋巴结阴性组中,nm23基因高、低表达的患者生存率差别显著,提示若将腋淋巴结阴性组中具有潜在转移危险性的nm23低表达患者筛选出来,加强治疗,将会有助于提高生存率。应用Cox比例风险模型进行的多因素分析显示,nm23基因表达与腋淋巴结转移、肿瘤大小均为乳腺癌的预后因素,其中nm23基因高表达患者死亡的相对危险度较低表达患者低54%。本研究结果提示,nm23基因表达可以作为一项独立的预后指标,用以指导乳腺癌的临床治疗。
Expression of nm23 gene protein in 101 breast cancer patients was detected by means of immunohistochemistry. Expression of nm23 gene was inversely associated with lymph node involvement and distant metastasis ( P <0.05). Overall survival was better in nm23 positive patients than that in the negatives. In multiple factor analysis using a Cox's proportional hazard regression model, nm23 was correlated with the patient's survival (B=0.4288). This study showed that nm23 gene may be taken as an independent marker in assessing prognosis in addition to its role in breast cancer metastasis.
