Abstract:
Objective To estimate the expressions of cyclin D1 and Ki67 in esophageal squamous cell carcinomas and their clinical significance. Methods The expressions of cyclin D1 and Ki67 were detected by immunohistochemistry in 28 specimens esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and 33 samples esophagitis tissue. Results The positive expression rate of cyclin D1 in ESCC and esophagitis tissues was 60.7% (17/28) and 33.3% (11/33) respectively (?2=4.573,P=0.032),while the mean Ki67 label index (Ki67 LI) was (49.21?25.15)% and (11.62?9.87)% respectively (t=7.908,P=0.000). The positive expression rate of cyclin D1 in TNM stage I tissues was 14.3% (1/7),which was significantly lower than that in stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ tissues[85.7% (6/7) and 100% (5/5),P=0.029 and 0.015,respectively]. In cases with lymph node metastasis,the positive rate of cyclin D1 expression was 90.9% (10/11) that was significantly higher than that in those without lymph node metastasis (P=0.016). The 28 patients with ESCC were followed up for 6 to 34 months [mean,(25.0?4.2) months],during which 19 patients survived,4 patients died of deterioration of the primary diseases (3 cases) or cerebrovascular affair (1 case),and the other 5 patients was lost to follow-up. Conclusions The expression of cyclin D1 is correlated with advanced tumor and lymph node metastasis. The Ki67 is highly expressed in ESCC tissues; no relationship exists between the level of the expression and the pathological differentiation type and TNM stage of ESCC.
