Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of APE/Ref-1 in gastric cancer. Methods Detection of APE/Ref-1 protein was performed with gastric cancer tissue microarray (TMA) by IHC in gastric cancer, non-neoplastic mucosa and lymph node with metastasis. Results The positive rates of APE/Ref-1 in cytoblast in non-neoplastic mucosa, tumor tissue, and metastatic lymph nodes were 96.6%, 97.1% and 98.9%, respectively, while the positive rates in cytoplasm were 71.8%, 21.4% and 10.0%, respectively and in both cytoblast and cytoplasm were 71.4%, 21.4% and 10.0%, respectively. Compared to non-neoplastic mucosa, tumor lesion had lower APE/Ref-1 expression in cytoblast and cytoplasm. In 35.9% of patients it was decreased slightly and in 11.2% of them it was decreased markedly in cytoblast (P
