Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expressions of growth factor receptor binding protein 7 (GRB7) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in endometrial carcinoma and their clinical significances. Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of GRB7 and HER2 in 52 endometrial carcinoma tissues, 38 endometrial atypical hyperplasia tissues and 30 normal endometrial tissues collected from patients in the Sixth People's Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University from May 2015 to September 2017. The relationship between the expressions of GRB7 and HER2 and clinicopathological features of endometrial carcinoma patients was analyzed. Results The positive expression rates of GRB7 in endometrial carcinoma, endometrial atypical hyperplasia and normal endometrial tissues were 71.2％ (37/52), 39.5％(15/38), and 13.3％(2/30), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=35.14, P<0.05). The positive expression rates of HER2 in endometrial carcinoma, endometrial atypical hyperplasia and normal endometrial tissues were 67.3％ (35/52), 34.2％ (13/38), and 10.0％ (3/30), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2= 29.360, P< 0.05). The positive expression rates of GRB7 in endometrial carcinoma patients with different clinical stages, histological grades and pathological types were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The positive expression rates of HER2 in endometrial carcinoma patients with different clinical stages, histological grades, lymph nodes metastasis and myometrial invasion were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). The expression of GRB7 in endometrial carcinoma was positively correlated with the expression of HER2 (r=0.375, P<0.05). Conclusion The high expressions of GRB7 and HER2 in endometrial carcinoma are closely related to the malignant degree of endometrial carcinoma.
