Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate laryngopharyngeal reflux effect on expression of COX-2mRNA in glottis carcinoma lesion mucosa.
METHOD:Forty cases with glottic laryngeal cancer were examined by electronic naspharyngeal laryngoscope and scored by the reflux symptom index (RSI) and the reflux finding score(RFS). Based on the scores, they were divided into two groups:glottic laryngeal cancer with positive reflux(20 cases) and glottic laryn geal cancer with negative reflux (20 cases). Ten cases with adjacent normal membrane were used as control group. The mRNA expression of CoX-2 from 40 patients was examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
RESULT:The expression of COX 2mRNA in tumor samples was significantly higher than that in normal tissues (P < 0.05); the expression of COX-2mRNA in glottic laryngeal cancer with positive reflux was significantly higher than that in glottic laryngeal cancer with negative reflux (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION:Laryngopharyngeal reflux factors may increased expression glottic carcinoma of COX-2mRNA by tissue injury, inflammation and cell malig-
