Abstract:
Purpose To explore the relationship between tumor suppressor in lung cancer 1 (TSLC1) protein expression and the carci-nogenesis and progression of human gastric carcinoma. Methods Expression of TSLC1 protein in 20 normal gastric mucosa, 30 intra-epithelial neoplasias ( IN) and 50 gastric cancers was examined by immunohistochemistry. Results The expression of TSLC1 in gas-tric cancer was 14. 00% which was lower than that in IN (46. 67%) and normal gastric mucosa (95. 00%, P<0. 05). TSLC1 ex-pression in high-grade IN was lower than that in low-grade IN and normal gastric mucosa (P<0. 05). TSLC1 expression in high-grade IN and gastric cancer was of no significant difference ( P>0. 05 ) . Expression of TSLC1 was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis and TNM in gastric cancer (P<0. 05). Conclusion The expression of TSLC1 is closely related to carcinogenesis, lymph node metastasis and clinical stage in gastric cancer, which suggest that TSLC1 may be a new target for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.
