To evaluate the efficacy of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) for the prognosis of pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
TGF-beta was detected immunohistochemically using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex technique in resected pulmonary adenocarcinomas from 88 patients.
Of the 88 patients, 39 were TGF-beta negative and 45 TGF-beta positive. The five year survival rate was 56% for the TGF-beta negative and 16% for the TGF-beta positive group.
TGF-beta can be used as a prognostic factor in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
评估转化生长因子β(TGF-β)对肺腺癌预后的影响。
采用抗生物素蛋白-生物素-过氧化物酶复合物技术对88例肺腺癌切除标本进行TGF-β免疫组化检测。
88例患者中,39例TGF-β阴性,45例TGF-β阳性。TGF-β阴性组的五年生存率为56%,TGF-β阳性组为16%。
TGF-β可作为肺腺癌的预后因素。
