Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of Skp2 and P27kip1 and their relationship with the clinicopathologic characters in basal cell carcinoma(BCC). To explore their expression between with the types of BCC of skin, especially in morpheaform BCC group. Methods Immunohistochemical SP technique was used to examine the expression of Skp2 and P27kip1 in 50 cases of BCC and 30 cases of normal tissues of skin.The expression level was analyzed combined with clinicopathological features of age, sex and types of tumor.Results Skp2 positive products located in cytoplasm or nucleus. P27kip1 positive products located in nucleus.The high expression of Skp2 and the low expression of P27kip1 were observed in BCC, there was statistical significance between the tumor group and the control group (P < 0. 05 ) . The expression of Skp2 and P27kip1 were correlated with clinical types of BCC ( P < 0. 05 ), while which were not correlated with age and sex ( P >0.05 ). In BCC tissue, Skp2 expression was negatively correlated with P27kip1 ( - 0.624; P < 0.05), there was no correlated with each other in morpheaform BCC group ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion The expression of Skp2 and P27kip1 in BCC are significant differences to normal skin tissues, and they are correlated with each other.They may play an important role in carcinogenesis and the development of BCC, and also make targets to treat it. Compared to nodular and superficial BCC group, the expression of Skp2 are higher in morpheaform BCC group, and the expression of P27kip1 is lower. They may play an important role in the types of the BCC and useful factors to predict the types of the tumor, also determine surgical margin for BCC cases.
