Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of the estrogen receptor(ER) subsets ER?,ER? and Ki-67 in tissues of different thyroid diseases.Methods The pathological data of 93 patients with thyroid diseases were collected from Jun.2003 to Jun.2007,including thyroid carcinoma(56 cases),thyroid follicular adenoma(13 cases),nodular goiter(14 cases) and normal thyroid tissue(10 cases).S-P immunohistochemistry was performed to determine the expressions of ER?,ER? and Ki-67 in the thyroid tissues.Results ER? and ER? were expressed in the plasma and nuclei of thyroid epithelial cells,and ER? was also expressed in the stroma.The positive rates of ER? expression in cases with thyroid carcinoma,thyroid follicular adenoma,nodular goiter and normal thyroid tissue was 87.5%,69.2%,42.9% and 30.0%,respectively,with significant difference between carcinoma and goiter or normal thyroid tissue(P0.05).Conclusion ER? and ER? may play an aggravating effect on cell proliferation in the disease course of the thyroid carcinoma.The expressions of ER? and Ki-67 are related to invasion and metastasis of thyroid carcinoma.
