Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic significance of Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1)expression in cervical cancer and its correlation with epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Methods A series of 202 samples,including 50 cases of normal cervical tissues,100 cases of cervical intraepithelial neo-plasia(CIN)and 52 cases of squamous cell carcinoma(SCC),were examined YB-1 and E-cadherin by immu-nohistochemical staining. Results The E-cadherin cell membrane immunoreactivity for normal/ CINⅠ,CINⅡ-Ⅲ,and SCC tissues were 100% ,64% and 3. 85% ,respectively( χ2 = 40. 909;χ2 = 119. 088;χ2 =25. 274;P < 0. 05). The negative and aberrant expression of E-cadherin was higher in metastatic SCC (100. 0% ,20 / 20)than that in non-metastatic SCC(68. 75% ,22 / 32)(χ2 = 5. 857,P = 0. 016). 94. 23%(49 / 52)cases of SCC exhibited strong YB-1 cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. The positive rates in normal/ CINⅠand CINⅡ-Ⅲ were 0(0 / 100)and 10. 00%(5 / 50)(χ2 = 72. 591;χ2 = 139. 059;χ2 = 5. 857;P < 0. 05). The cytoplasmic expression of YB-1 was higher in metastatic SCC(100. 0% ,20 / 20)than that in non-metastatic SCC(59. 38% ,19 / 32)(χ2 = 10. 833,P = 0. 001). The rates were 60. 71%(17 / 28)and 91. 67%(22 /24)in early stage SCC and late stage SCC(χ2 = 6. 603,P = 0. 01). Conclusion YB-1 over-expression is as-sociated with the malignant transformation of cervical epithelium,stage progression and metastasis of cervical cancer. The up-regulation of YB-1 is also associated with the down-regulation of E-cadherin,and it may predict the malignant transformation of CIN and distal metastasis of cervical cancer.
