Abstract:
Objective To study the Ezrin protein in nasopharyngeal carcinoma expression and its effects on metastasis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma .Methods Expression of Ezrin protein was detected by immunohistochemical method in 98 cases with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 37 cases of chronic nasopharyngitis tissues were analyzed . Clinical staging and pathological characteristics , recurrence and metastasis following treatment in the process of 98 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were observed .Results 98 cases of patients with nasopharyngeal carcino-ma research group,69 cases(70.4%) patients were positive expression of Ezrin protein .The control group nasopha ryngeal mucositis of patients ,only 4 patients showed positive expression of Ezrin protein ,the rate of positive expression was 10.8%.The differences between the two groups compared with the positive rate of Ezrin significantly (χ2 =38.42,P=0.00).By comparison on strength of patients with distant metastases of different expression of Ezrin in study group,closely related to Ezrin strong positive and tumor metastasis , Ezrin protein ( ++) and ( +++) expression group and negative (-) and weak positive (+) expression group compared with patients ,tumor migration rate was significantly higher(all P<0.05).Conclusion Ezrin protein shows significantly higher expression in tis-sues of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma ,the positive expression of Ezrin protein in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and with the distant metastasis .
