Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of combined detection with MMP-9 and uPA in the progno-sis of pancreatic carcinoma. Methods By immunohistochemistry PV methods,the expression of MMP-9 and uPA was respectively studied in 63 surgical specimens of primary pancreatic carcinoma and the survival time of patients with pancreatic carcinoma was analysed. Results The expressions of MMP-9 and uPA were positively related(r=0. 573,P=0. 000). The expression of MMP-9 and uPA significantly correlated with differentiation (r= -0. 271,P=0. 032;r= -0. 333,P=0. 008),TNM stages(r= -0. 449,P=0. 000;r= -0. 430,P=0. 000)and lymph node metastasis(r=0. 329,P=0. 009;r=0. 400,P=0. 001),separately. The expression of MMP-9 had also a significant correlation with tumer size(r= -0. 297,P=0. 018)and distant metastasis(r=0. 320,P=0. 011). Univariate analysis identified that tumor size(χ2 =8. 766,P=0. 012),differentiation(χ2 =29. 050,P=0. 000),clinical stage(χ2 =24. 940,P=0. 000),distant metastasis(χ2 =12. 846,P=0. 000), lymph node metastasis(χ2 =15. 457,P=0. 000),MMP-9(χ2 =32. 700,P=0. 000)and uPA(χ2 =41. 495,P=0. 000)were significantly associated with prognosis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that 1-year survival rate of patients with MMP-9 ( -),uPA ( -)were significantly longer than that of the patients with MMP-9( ﹢),uPA( ﹢),respectively(χ2 =32. 700,P=0. 000;χ2 =41. 495,P=0. 000);1-year survival rate of patients with MMP-9( -)/uPA( -)was significantly longer than the others( Log-rank test,χ2 = 54. 892, P=0. 000). COX regression revealed that differentiation(RR=2. 315,P=0. 004),clinical stage(RR=1. 694, P=0. 002),MMP-9(RR=0. 165,P=0. 000)and uPA(RR=0. 244,P=0. 007)was independent prognostic factors in pancreatic carcinoma. Conclusion They may have a synergistic function in the the process of growth and invasion in pancreatic cancer between MMP-9 and uPA,and the posssible mechanism is that uPA activate degradation of MMP-9,which is not favorable to prognosis. Combined analysis of MMP-9 and uPA may lead to a more reliable prognostic estimation,as the beneficial supplement of the differentiation,and clinical stage to judge the prognosis of pancreatic cancer.
