Abstract:
Objective To study the role of nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) and peroxisome proliferation activator receptor-?(PPAR-?) in the development of Barrett's esophagus(BE) and esophagus adenocarcinoma(EA).Methods Fifty BE patients including 25 EA patients admitted in Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Command from Jul.2005 to Jul.2006 were involved in the present study.The expressions of NF-?B and PPAR-? in squamous epithelial cells of normal esophagus,BE and EA were investigated with immunohistochemical staining.The correlation between the expression of both NF-?B and PPAR-? and their clinicopathological features were analyzed.Results Positive staining of NF-?B was situated in cytoplasm,and that of PPAR-? in nuclei.No expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? was found in normal esophageal squamous epithelium,while they expressed in a medium extent in BE(positive staining in cytoplasm of goblet cells and surface glandular epithelium),and extensively expressed in EA.There existed significant difference in expression of NF-?B and PPAR-? in EA compared with those in BE and normal esophageal squamous epithelium(P
