Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α),glucose transporter protein-1 (GLUT-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human laryngeal carcinoma tissue,and to study the relationship between hypoxia and HIF-1α,GLUT-1,VEGF in human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells and to explore the effect of HIF-1α,GLUT-1 and VEGF as endogenous hypoxic markers on laryngeal carcinoma.Methods The expression levels of HIF-1α,GLUT-1 and VEGF were detected in 35 cases of laryngeal carcinoma by SP immunohistochemical methods and in Hep-2 cells by SP immunocytochemical methods.The relationship between HIF-1 α and GLUT-1,VEGF protein expression was analyzed.Results Of the 35 cases,16 cases expressed HIF-1α,16 cases expressed GLUT-1,19 cases expressed VEGF.The expression of HIF-1α and VEGF were closely correlated with pathologic grading and lymphnode metastasis.GLUT-1 was correlated with lymphnode metastasis.The expression levels of HIF-1 α,GLUT-1 and VEGF in Hep-2 cells under hypoxic condition were higher than those under normoxiccondition.Conclusion HIF-1α may promote the expression of GLUT-1 and VEGF in laryngeal carcinoma,furthermore promote tumor angiogenesis,invasion,and metastasis of the laryngeal carcinoma.
