Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between adhesion molecule CD44v6,intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and lymph node metastasis in early stage of cervical squamous cell carcinoma.Methods Seventy-four specimens of cervical cancer stage Ⅰ b1,20 specimens of normal cervical tissue and 20 specimens of cervical squamous cell in situ carcinoma were collected from Jiangxi Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital.The expression of CD44v6 and ICAM-1 in cervical tissue was detected by real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry.The lymphatic vessel density (LVD) labeled by D2-40 was detected by immunohistochemistry.The relationship of CD44v6,ICAM-1 and LVD with the differentiation degree and lymph mode metastasis was investigated.Results The positive expression rate of CD44v6 and ICAM-1 in normal cervix,cervical squamous cell carcinoma in situ,and cervical carcinoma tissues was gradually increased,which were 0,75.00%,87.84% and 10.00%,45.00%,81.08% respectively.Their mRNA expression amount was gradually increased,which were 0,0.24±0.02,1.02±0.11 and 0.10 ± 0.00,0.19±0.02,1.03 ± 0.10 respectively,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01).LVD was gradually increased in normal cervix,cervical squamous cell carcinoma in situ,and cervical carcinoma (P<0.01).The expression of CD44v6,ICAM-1 and LVD in low differentiated cervical carcinoma tissue was higher than that in high and middle differentiated cervical carcinoma (P<0.01).The expression of CD44v6,ICAM-1and LVD in lymph node metastasis was higher than that in non-lymph node metastasis (P<0.01).The expression of CD44v6,ICAM-1 and LVD in cervical cancer tissue had each two positive correlation (P<0.01).Conclusion CD44v6 plays a promoting role in the progression of cervical cancer,which with ICAM-1 and LVD synergically promote the cervical cancer development,and could be used as an effective indicator for judging lymph node metastasis and diagnosis of cervical cancer.
