Abstract:
Objective To discuss the relationships between expression levels of CD147 and vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) in lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma and the clinicopathological features.Methods The expression of CD147 and VEGF-C in 57 lung cancer tissues was detected by immunohistochemical method.Results The positive expression rates of CD147 and VEGF-C in 57 lung cancer tissues were 63.16 ％ (36/57),66.67 ％ (38/57) respectively.The expression of CD147 and VEGF-C in lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma had no statistical difference (both P ＞ 0.05).The expression of CD147 and VEGF-C in lung squarnous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma had relationship with lymph node metastasis and tumor TNM stage (all P ＜ 0.05),however they had not correlation with the patient' s age,sex,smoking and tumor cell differentiation extent irrelevant (all P ＞ 0.05).The expression of CD147 was related positively with VEGF-C (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions CD147 and VEGF-C play important roles in the progression and metastasis of lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma,which may have a synergistic effect.The joint detection of CD147 and VEGF-C can be used as a useful prognostic indicator in patients with lung cancer.
