摘要
目的 研究p27kip1 在乳腺癌组织中的表达水平,及其与生物学行为的关系和对预后的作用。方法 以免疫组化法检测181 例乳腺癌组织p27kip1 蛋白表达水平,其中91 例进行了凋亡指数、凋亡相关蛋白bcl2 、bax 的测定,另有106 例检测了p21WAF1/CIP1 、p53、mdm2 蛋白表达水平。结果 本组181 例中,p27kip1 蛋白阳性125 例,占69 .1% ;低表达者121 例,占66.9 % ;高表达者60 例,占33.1 % 。乳腺癌组织p27kip1 蛋白水平与病理组织学分级、癌周浸润程度、肿块大小、腋淋巴结转移情况、TNM 分期、术后局部复发与转移均相关,与bcl2 、bax、p53 、p21WAF1/CIP1 、mdm2 蛋白表达水平亦相关。单因素生存分析结果,p27kip1蛋白高表达组5 年无病生存率93 .7% 优于低表达组64.7% ( P= 0.0001) 。Cox 模型多因素分析未显示p27kip1 蛋白表达水平是独立的预后指标。结论 细胞周期蛋白依赖性激酶抑制剂(Cki)p27kip1 在乳腺癌中具有一定预后价值;p27kip1 不仅在细胞周期停滞中有作用。
Objective To study the expression of p27 kip1 in breast cancer in relation to biological behavior and prognosis. Methods p27 kip1 expression at protein level was determined by immunohistochemistry technique in 181 patients with breast cancer. In addition, p27 WAF1/CIP1 , p53 and mdm 2 were examined in 106 cases of this series. Data about apoptotic index, bcl 2 and bax protein expression were available in the other 91 patients.Results Of the 181 patients, p27 kip1 expression was low in 121 (66.9%) and high in 60 (33.1%), respectively. p27 kip1 expression level was correlated with histological grade, tumor size, axillary lymph node status, post operative recurrence, invasion and metastasis. It was also correlated with bcl 2, bax, p53, p21 WAF1/CIP1 , and mdm 2 expression levels. Univariate analysis demonstrated better disease free survival in patients with higher p27 kip1 expression than in those with lower expression. However, by Cox multivariate analysis, p27 kip1 expression level was not found to be of independent prognostic significance. Conclusion As an inhibitor of cyclin dependent kinase, p27 kip1 favors prognosis of human breast cancer not only by arresting cell cycle in G 1 phase but also inducing cancer cell apoptosis.
