Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of high mobility group A1 (HMGA1) in patients with lung squamous cancer and its clinical significance.Methods The expression of HMGA1 in 76 patients with lung squamous cancer (lung squamous cancer group) and 30 cases of control lung tissue (control group) was detected by SP method of immunohistochemistry and its correlation with clinical-pathological parameter was analyzed statistically.Results The positive expression rate of HMGA1 was 68.4％ (52/76)and 16.7％ (5/30) in lung squamous cancer group and control group respectively,and the difference was significant(P＜ 0.01).HMGA1 expression showed significant correlation with lymph metastasis and degree of differentiation in patients with lung squamous cancer (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The progression of lung squamous cancer may correlate with the increase of HMGA1 expression.It's promising for HMGA1 to become a new marker for diagnosis of lung squamous cancer.Clinical detecting of HMGA1 could help with prognosis and treatment-guiding of lung squamous cancer.
