摘要
目的探讨肾透明细胞癌中环氧化酶-2(COX-2)、血管内皮细胞生长因子(VEGF)的表达及其相关意义。方法采用免疫组化法检测60例原发性肾透明细胞癌、10例正常肾组织中COX-2和VEGF的表达。结果COX-2在肾透明细胞癌中的阳性表达率(76.7%)高于正常肾组织(20%)(X^2=10.28,P〈0.01)。VEGF在肾透明细胞癌中的阳性表达率(73.3%)高于正常肾组织(20%)(X^2=8.58,P〈0.01)。肾透明细胞癌中COX-2表达与VEGF表达呈正相关(r=0.469,P〈0.01)。结论COX-2、VEGF的表达参与了肾透明细胞癌的发生、发展,COX-2、VEGF的表达可作为肾透明细胞癌发生、发展动态过程中的客观观察指标,二者的协同作用强化了肿瘤的恶性演进。
Objective To study the correlation between vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) in clear renal cell carcinoma (CRCC). Methods In 60 cases of CRCC and 10 cases of normal renal tissue, immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of COX-2 and VEGF. Results The positive expression rate of COX-2 in CRCC (76. 7% ) was significantly higher than that in normal renal tissue (20%) ( X^2 = 10. 28, P 〈 0. O1 ). The positive expression rate of VEGF in CRCC(73.3% ) was significantly higher than that in normal renal tissue (20%) (X^2=8.58, P 〈0. 01). The expressions of COX-2 and VEGF in CRCC were correlated with each other ( r = 0. 469, P 〈 0.01 ). Conclusions The expressions of COX-2 and VEGF were involved in the pathophysiolical processes of clear renal cell carcinoma. The expression levels of COX-2 and VEGF might be used to evaluate the development of clear renal cell carcinoma.
