Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expressions of ezrin,E-cadherin,paxillin and integrin β1 in skin squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and their significance.Methods The expressions of ezrin,E-cadherin,paxillin and.integrin β1 were immunohistochemically detected in tissue specimens from 30 patients with SCC and 10 normal human controls.Results The expression rates of ezrin and E-cadherin in normal human keratinocytes were significantly higher than those in SCC cells [ 100.00% (10/10)vs.56.67%(17/30),x2 =6.42,P < 0.05; 100.00% (10/10) vs 13.33% (4/30),x2=24.76,P < 0.05],while the expression rates of paxillin and integrin β1 in normal human keratinocytes were significantly lower than those in SCC cells [0.00vs.70.00% (21/30),x2 =14.74,P < 0.01; 10.00% (1/10) vs.66.67% (20/30),x2 =9.66,P < 0.05].In SCC cells,there was a significant positive correlation between the expression of ezrin and E-cadherin (r =0.52,P <0.01 ),but a negative correlation between the expression of paxillin and E-cadherin and between that of integrin β1 and E-cadherin (r =- 0.56,- 0.52 respectively,both P < 0.01); no significant correlation was observed between the expression of ezrin and paxillin or integrin β1,or between the that of paxillin and integrin β1 (r =0.5,0.24 and 0 respectively,all P > 0.05).Conclusions The low expression of E-cadherin and high expression of paxillin and integrin β1 may synergistically promote the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells,while integrin β1 and E-cadherin may play an antagonistic role in the metastasis of SCC.
