Abstract:
Objective Toexplore expression and clinical significance of WWOX protein and the Bcl-2 protein in the organiza-tion of bronchial lung cancer (primary lung cancer).Methods Chose 76 lung cancer patients with clear pathological diagno-sis who were hospitalized in the Shaanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from 2010 and 2015(including 29 cases of adenocarci-noma,27 cases of squamous cell carcinoma,and 20 cases of small cell carcinoma)and 7 cases of normal lung tissue,8 cases of lung tuberculosis.The expressions of WWOX protein,Bcl-2 protein and more that 5 cm normal lung tissue adjacent to carci-noma were measured by immunohistochemistry SP method.The expression difference between patients and normal control group and the influence of sex,age,pathological type,differentiation degree,clinical stage,lymph node metastasis,smoking index on the expression of WWOX protein and Bcl-2 protein in lung cancer were analyzed.Results ①The positive expres-sion rate of WWOX protein in lung cancer group (35.52%)was significantly lower than that in normal lung tissue (73.33%,P<0.05).The positive expression rate of Bcl-2 protein in lung cancer group (78.06%)was significantly higher than that in control group (23.75%,P<0.05 ).②The positive expression rate of WWOX protein in male patients (21.43%)was significantly lower than that in female patients (52.94%),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.146,P=0.04).The positive expression rate of Bcl-2 protein in male patients (71.43%)was significantly higher than that in female patients (35.29%),the difference was statistically significant (χ2=9.923,P=0.002).③In lung cancer with lymph node metastasis,the positive rate of WWOX protein (17.07%)was significantly lower than that in non-lymph node metastasis (48.57%),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.67,P=0.003).In lung cancer with lymph node metastasis,the positive rate of Bcl-2 protein expression (68.29%)was significantly higher than that in non-lymph node me-tastasis (34.28%),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.758,P=0.003).④The positive rate of expression of WWOX protein in patients whose smoking index≥400 and in patients that<400 was 15.63% and 47.73%,respectively, the differences were significant (χ2=8.48,P=0.003).The positive rate of expression of Bcl-2 protein in patients whose smoking index≥400 and in patients that<400 was 56.25% and 22.73%,respectively,the differences were significant (χ2=8.947,P=0.003).⑤WWOX and Bcl-2 protein expressions had no obvious relationship with ages,pathological type,degree of differentiation and clinical stage.⑥WWOX protein expression had negative correlation with Bcl-2 protein expression in lung cancr tissues.Conclusion WWOX protein expression in lung cancer was lower than that in adjacent normal lung tis-sue,Bcl-2 protein expression in lung cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal lung tissue.WWOX protein ex-pression had negative correlation with Bcl-2 protein expression in lung cancer tissues.
