To investigate the expression of co-stimulatory molecule B7-H3 in gastric carcinoma and adenoma tissue as well as normal gastric tissue and to explore the relationship between B7-H3 expression and pathological features and prognosis of gastric carcinoma.
B7-H3 expression was detected in 102 samples of human gastric carcinoma and 10 samples of gastric adenoma and 10 samples of normal gastric tissue by immunohistochemical assay. Correlation between the expression of B7-H3 and the patients' age, sex, gastric carcinoma locus, tumor size, tissue type, tumor infiltration depth, differentiation degree, lymph node metastasis, and survival time was analyzed.
B7-H3 was expressed in all gastric adenoma samples and in 58.8% samples of gastric carcinoma. B7-H3 expression in gastric carcinoma samples was not related with the patients' age, sex, lymph node metastasis, and tumor size (P>0.05), but with the survival time, infiltration depth of tumor and tissue type.
Detection of B7-H3 expression in gastric carcinoma tissue is beneficial to the judgment of the prognosis of gastric carcinoma patients and the choice of treatment.
研究共刺激分子B7-H3在胃癌、胃腺瘤组织及正常胃组织中的表达情况,探讨B7-H3表达与胃癌病理特征及预后的关系。
采用免疫组织化学法检测102例人胃癌组织、10例胃腺瘤组织及10例正常胃组织中B7-H3的表达。分析B7-H3表达与患者年龄、性别、胃癌部位、肿瘤大小、组织类型、肿瘤浸润深度、分化程度、淋巴结转移及生存时间的相关性。
B7-H3在所有胃腺瘤组织样本及58.8%的胃癌组织样本中表达。胃癌组织样本中B7-H3的表达与患者年龄、性别、淋巴结转移及肿瘤大小无关(P>0.05),但与生存时间、肿瘤浸润深度及组织类型有关。
检测胃癌组织中B7-H3的表达有助于判断胃癌患者的预后及治疗方案的选择。
