Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of VEGF-C,CD31 and MVD,in human ovarian epithelial carcinoma tissues,development and metastasis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma by observing their expression and analyzing their correlation.Methods 40 samples of ovarian epithelial carcinoma tissues and 20 samples normal ovary tissues were selected from 2004 to 2005 in the third affiliated hospital of Harbin Medical University,as well as 20 cases of normal ovarian tissues samples as control using immunohisrochemical staining assay,we analyzed the expression of VEGF-C,MVD detected by CD31.The relationship of these three factors with patients age tumor stage,differentiation,pathohistological type,were analyzed.Results 67.5%(27/40)had high expression of VEGF-C,15%(3/14)had low espression.The survival of patients with high VEGF-C expression was significantly worse than that of patients with low and negative expression.Conclusion VEGF-C and CD31 may play an important role in the occurrence and development of epithelial ovarian tumors,while MVD maybe associated with the ivasion and metastasis of carcinoma.The detection of VEGF-C combined with CD31 and MVD can objectively reflect the biological behavior of epithelial ovarian tumor.
