Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of monocyte chemotactic factor -1(MCP-1) and fibronectin (FN ) in secondary acquired middle ear cholesteatoma epithelium ,and to investigate the ability of cholesteatoma of e-rosion .Methods MaxVisionTM immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of MCP -1 and FN in the secondary acquired middle ear cholesteatoma tissues from 30 patients ,in the retroauricular skin from 20 pa-tients and in the retroauricular skin from 16 normal subjects .Then we scanned it into a computer by an image scan-ner and quantified the gray value of them using commercial software .Results MCP-1 appeared to be localized in all epithelial layers of middle ear cholesteatoma ,particularly in the spinous layers .The positive expression rates of MCP-1 was 70% ,the gray value was 147 .2 ± 20 .1 ,which were siginificantly higher than those of in the retroau-ricular skin from patients(35% ,200 .8 ± 18 .4)and from normal subjects(37 .5% ,193 .3 ± 15 .5)(P<0 .05) .The ex-pression of FN in all epithelial layers of middle ear cholesteatoma were abundantly stained ,especially in the basal and spinous layers and the matrix of cholesteatoma .The positive expression rates of FN was 76 .7% ,the gray value was 147 .2 20 .1 ,which were siginificantly higher than those of in the retroauricular skin from patients (30% ,195 .0 ± 12 .9)and from normal subjects(31 .3% ,191 .6 ± 13 .5)(P<0 .05) .It showed statistically significant correlation between the expression of MCP -1 and FN and the erosion ability of middle ear cholesteatoma (rmcp-1 = -0 .682 , rfn = -0 .531 ,P<0 .01) .There was not linear correlation between the expression of MCP -1 and FN .Conclusion MCP-1 and FN are overexpressed in middle ear cholesteatoma .There was correlation between the expression of MCP-1 or FN and the erosion ability of middle ear cholesteatoma ,indicating that MCP -1 and FN may play an im-portant roles in invasive behavior of cholesteatoma .
