Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of migration inhibitory factor ( MIF) and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) in human gastric cancer tissue and corresponding adjacent normal tissue. Methods Selected surgery and pathologically confirmed 80 cases of gastric cancer as the experimental group, took another 80 cases of corresponding adjacent tissues as a control group. The expressions of MIF and MMP-9 were de-tected in 80 cases of gastric cancer patients cancer tissue and corresponding adjacent normal tissue by immunohisto-chemical SP method. Results ①The expression of MIF and MMP-9 of gastric cancer in varying degrees:The pos-itive rates of MIF and MMP-9 were 68. 8% and 67. 5%,which were higher than that in adjacent normal tissues, 32. 5% and 37.5% (P <0.05);② The expression of MIF was significantly associated with the clinical stage, depth of invasion,degree of differentiation,lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0.05), nothing to do with other clinicopathological parameters;the expression of MMP-9 was significantly associated with the depth of inva-sion,degree of differentiation, lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0.05), nothing to do with other clini-copathological parameters;③ There was positive correlation between the expression of MIF and MMP-9 in gastric cancer tissue (χ2 =9. 154, P<0. 01,r=0.338). Conclusion The expressions of MIF and MMP-9 show a posi-tive expression in gastric carcinoma, there maybe have a positive correlation between MIF and MMP-9. Their ex-pressions of varying degrees are closely related with the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, guidance gastric diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.
