Abstract:
Purpose:To detect the expression of a novel i nh ibitor gene of apoptosis,survivin,in gastric cancer and in gastric carcinoma MGC -803 cell line,also to analyze its correlation with the expression of COX-2. Methods:In 93 stomach carcinoma tissues and 20 normal gastric tissues , the expression o f survivin and COX-2 were examined by using the streptavidin-biotin peroxidase (SP) method. Results:In contrast to negative expression in normal gastric mucosa,survivin was express ed in 66 of 93(71%) cases of gastric cancer samples,Overexpression of survivin i n gastric carcinoma MGC-803 cell line was also found,There was a relationship b etween survivin gene expression and degrees of differentiation,lymph node metast ases and TNM stages.The expression of survivin was positively correlated with th at of COX-2(liner index of Pearson=0.227 P
