Abstract:: |
Objective To observing the relationship between apoptosis-ralated genes bcl-2, c-myc, p53 and the radiosensitivity of esophageel squamous cell carcinoma. Methods The expression levels of bcl-2, c-myc and p53 genes in 57 biopsy samples from patients of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were detected with the LSAB immunohistochemistry method.All the patients were treated with radiotherapy.The radiotherapeutic effect in these patients was observed and the relation between gene expression and radiosensitivity was analyzed. Results Compared with the bcl-2-negative group, the radiosensitivity of bcl-2-positive one was lower(P<0.01).The radiosensitivity of p53-positive group was slightly lower than that of the p53-negative one (P<0.05).The c-myc protein expression was not related to radiosensitivity. Conclusion Detection and comprehensive analysis of bcl-2, c-myc and p53 protein expressions are useful in forecasting the radiotherapeutic effect on squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus. |
