Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To study the pathological relationship between the expression of Col IV and LN in nasal and paranasal sinus malignant tumor (NPMT).
METHOD:The immunohistochemical technique was used to detected the expression of Col IV and LN in NPMT, para-cancer tissues and non-cancer tissues.
RESULT:There was a significance on the expression of the Col IV and LN in NPMT, para-cancer tissues and non-cancer tissues (P<0.01), and no significance in endepidermis and soft connective tissue of the NPMT (P>0.05).
CONCLUSION:The Col IV and LN perhaps participate in tumorigenesis of NPMT, and may play the homoioplastic role in different pathological types of the NPMT.
