Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the role of the retinoic acid raceptor α (RARα) , retinoic acid receptor β(RARp) , estrogen receptor(ER) and progesterone receptor(PR) in the clinical pathological stage, histologcal classification and the muscular invasive depth of the endometrial carcinoma through detecting the expression of these receptors.Methods:48 paraffin sections with endometrial carcinoma by pathological conformation ware selected.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of RARα, RARβ, ER and PR.The relationship between these raceptors and the clinical pathological parameters was evaluated.Results:①The positive expression ratio of the RARα and RARβ were 47.92% (23/48) and 25.00% (12/48) respectively.The level of RARα was higher than that of RARβ (P<0.05).②The expression of RARα in the endometrial carcinoma increased with the increasing of the pathological stage and the decreasing of the histological differentiation (P<0.05).But the expression of these two receptors had no significant relation with the histological classification and the muscular invasive depth (P >0.05).③The level of the RARβ was consistent with that of the ER and PR, and it decreased with the increasing of the malignant extent of the endometrial adenocarcinoma (P < 0.05) ,and had no significant relation with the pathological stage, the histological classification and the muscular invasive depth (P >0.05).④The expression of RARβ was positively correla ted to the expression of ER and PR, but the expression of RARα was negatively correlated to the expression ER and PR.Conclusions :There is expression of RARα、RARβ in endometrial carcinoma, and it has close relationship between the expression of RARα and the development of endometrial carcinoma.The absence of the RARβ expression and the high expression of the RARα are related to the histological classification of endometrial carcinoma.
