Abstract:
Objective: To observe the expression of hMLH1 protein in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma, atypical hyperplasia tissue and normal esophagus tissue, so as to discuss the relationship between hMLH1 expression and esophagus carcinogenesis. Methods: The specimens of esophagus squamous cell carcinoma, atypical hyperplasia and normal esophagus tissue were obtained from 92 esophagus carcinoma patients. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining technique was used to detect expression of hMLH1 protein. The relationship between hMLH1 expression with clinical parameters, such as gender, age, cancer differentiation level, infiltration depth, tumor stage, lymphatic metastasis, was analyzed. Results: The positive rates of hMLH1 protein in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma, and atypical hyperplasia tissue and normal esophagus tissue were 36.96%,56.52%, and 84.78%,respectively,with the former 2 significantly lower than the latter (P
