Abstract:
Purpose To investigate the expression status and their clinical significances of c-MET, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) in gastric adenocarcinoma (GC). Methods Tissue samples from 442 cases of GC in patients who accepted D2/D3 radical gastrectomy with R0 resection were stained by immunohistochemistry against c-MET, EGFR and HER-2.Results Over expression of c-MET, EGFR and HER-2 was identified in 195/442 (44.1%), 47/442 (10.6%) and 152/442 (34.4%) GC patients, respectively. Over expression of cMET was more often identified in GC patients with deeper T (P= 0.016), nerve involvement (P = 0.006) and the Lauren diffuse type (P = 0.029). EGFR in cases with vessel permeation (P = 0.012), and HER-2 in cases of distant metastasis (P =0.031), non-nerve involvement (P = 0.024), the Lauren intestinal type (P < 0.001) and G1/G2 grade (P < 0.001). Conclusion The receptors tyrosine kinase (RTKs) markers of cMET, EGFR and HER-2 might involve in the advance of GC, such as invasion and metastasis. The expression status of them could be used as the risk prediction and even the basis for future personalized therapy, especially for tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, for GC patients.
