Abstract:
Purpose:To investigate the cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) expression in gastric carcinoma and investigate the effects of COX-2 expression on P-glycoprotein. Methods:The expression of COX-2 and P-glycoprotein was examined by immunohistochemical staining in 48 cases of gastric carcinoma and 10 cases of normal gastric tissues. Results:There was no positive signal of COX-2 detected in normal gastric tissue. The positive expression rate of COX-2 was 60.4 %(29/48) in gastric carcinoma. The expression of COX-2 was correlated with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis (P
