Barrett's mucosa consists of metaplastic columnar epithelium (specialized columnar epithelium) of the esophagus. Recently, "short-segment Barrett's esophagus (SSBE)" was proposed. In the present study, we examined immunohistochemical mucin expression and the Ki-67 labeling index (LI) of SSBE, in 5-15 mm lengths. All 27 SSBE cases showed gastric mucin (MUC5AC, HGM, MUC6). CD10 and MUC2, which were markers of intestinal phenotypes, were detected in 13 (48.1%) and 14 (51.9%) of the 27 SSBE cases. Ki-67 LI of SSBE positive cases for CD10 was 23.6 %, while that of SSBE negative cases for CD10 was 14.4 % (p < 0.05). SSBE cases were divided into two groups: one was gastric epithelium type with low Ki-67 LI, and the other was metaplastic epithelium with intestinal metaplasia and high Ki-67 LI. The latter group was suggested to be more important as a premalignant lesion of esophageal adenocarcinoma.
巴雷特黏膜由食管的化生柱状上皮(特殊柱状上皮)组成。最近,有人提出了“短节段巴雷特食管(SSBE)”。在本研究中,我们检查了长度为5 - 15毫米的SSBE的免疫组化粘蛋白表达和Ki-67标记指数(LI)。所有27例SSBE病例均显示胃粘蛋白(MUC5AC、HGM、MUC6)。在27例SSBE病例中,分别有13例(48.1%)和14例(51.9%)检测到作为肠表型标志物的CD10和MUC2。CD10阳性的SSBE病例的Ki-67 LI为23.6%,而CD10阴性的SSBE病例的Ki-67 LI为14.4%(p < 0.05)。SSBE病例分为两组:一组是Ki-67 LI较低的胃上皮类型,另一组是伴有肠化生且Ki-67 LI较高的化生上皮。后一组被认为作为食管腺癌的癌前病变更为重要。
