Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of p53 protein and Ki-67 antigen in order to detect its clinical characters and the significance of them in them occurrence and development of appendiceal mucinous neoplasms.Methods 42 tissues of appendiceal mucinous neoplasms were selected by pathological diagnosis in the department of pathology of the PLA general hospital from May 1993 to October 2007.The 10 samples of control group were obtained from simple appendicitis after surgery.Applied PV6000 immunohistochemical method,the expressions of p53 protein and Ki-67 antigen were detected.Results The expression of p53 protein in appendiceal mucinous neoplasms was higher than that in appendicitis tissue [31.0 % (13/42) vs 0 (0/10),x2 =4.127,P =0.042).The positive rate of p53 protein in appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma was higher than that in low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm tissue (40.0 % vs 8.3 %,x2 =4.0218,P =0.044).The positive rate of p53 protein in appendiceal mucinous neoplasms tissue with pseudomyxoma peritonei was higher than that in tissue without PMP (45.5 % vs 15.0 %,x2 =4.5464,P =0.033).The expression of Ki-67 antigen in appendiceal mucinous neoplasms was higher than that in appendicitis tissue (45.2 % vs 10.0 %,x2 =4.2374,P =0.039).Considering the different factors (such as gender,age,pathological type and PMP),Ki-67 antigen expressions were still not significantly different (P > 0.05).In appendiceal mucinous neoplasms,the difference of positive rates of Ki-67 between the p53 positive expression group and the p53 negative group was statistically significant (x2 =7.6299,P =0.0057).Conclusion The expression of p53 protein was correlated with the expression of Ki-67 antigen.It's valuable that both p53 protein and Ki-67 antigen are used to evaluate the biological behavior of appendiceal mucinous neoplasms and predict the malignant degree.
