Abstract:
Carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)is an oncofetal antigen which has been widespraad studied.A murine stage-Specific embryonic antigen(SSEA-l)is a new oncodeveloptnental antigen which appears at 8-cell stage of mouse embryo.The expression of CEA and SSEA-1 in gastric malignant and nonmalignant tissues by using immunofluorescence technique were reported in this study. Most of gastric carcinoma stained intensively for CEA (68 of 78 cases. 87. 2%) and SSEA-l(89.0%).But CEA only expressed in 15.0% of normal gastric mucosa (3/20) and SSEA-1 in 30.0%. In non-malignant gastric tissues, CEA was expressed in 61.5% (8 of 13 cases)of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) and 87.5%(7/8)of chronic superiicial gastritis (CSG)with intestinal metaplasia,but only 38.2% and 29.2% in CSG without intestinal metaplasia and peptic ulcer seperately. SSEA-1 existed in more than 80% of all kind of son-malignant gastric tissues, including CAG, CSG with or without intestinal metaplasia and peptic ulcer. These results indicated that CEA will be of more benefit for the diagnosis of gastric carcinoma or premalignant gastric lesions than that of SSEA-1.
