Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of p73 gene in lung cancer and tumorigenesis, progression of lung cancer in the elderly. Methods The expression of p73 protein in 65 cases of lung cancer, adjacent tissues of cancer and normal tissues was determined by immunohistochemical SABC method. The results were analysed by combining the clinicopathological data and the prognosis. Results The results showed (1)the expression level of p73 protein in the cancer group was significantly different from the rest groups(47 7%,9 2%,4 6%, P 0 05),but it was correlated with the clinical stage (60 5%,22 7%) and survival time of the patients (72 2%,16 0%, P
