Abstract:
0.05). Positive stains were located in cytoplasm of cancer and stromal cells, especially in invasive margin of cancer. Slight positive stains were observed in non-cancer tissues. But in the control samples, there wasn't specific stain. In ELISA, the uPA antigen levels in cancer and non- cancer tissues were (4.23?0.57)ng/mg protein and (1.26?0.14)ng/mg protein; the uPAR antigen levels in caner and non-cancer tissues were(4.25?0.21)ng/mg protein and (3.15?0.23)ng/mg protein respectively. Significant difference existed in both uPA and uPAR antigen levels in these two kinds of tissue ( t=18.963,P=0.000;t=13 693,P=0 000 ). Furthermore, these antigen levels in progressive and aggressive tumors significantly higher than those in non-progressive and non-aggressive tumors ( P
