Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate changes of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)expression in human cervical cancer following irradiation. Methods Immunohistochemical staining for PCNA was performed in frozen sections of formalin-fixed cervical cancer biopsy tissues. Results The majority of the cancer cells showed PCNA-immunoreactivity before irradiation.Following irradiation(30-40 Gy/15-20 f)PCNA-immunopositive staining was hardly detectable in most of the cancer cells.The PCNA-immunoreactivity,however, increasd after radiotherapy and moderate or heavy immunopositive staining for PCNA was seen in irradiated mesenchymal tissue cells. On the other hand after irradiation Fos-immunoreactivity decreased remarkably and Fos-immunoposi-five staining was hardly detectable in most of cancer cells. No obvious change in Fos-immunoreactivity however was seen in mesenchymal connective tissue following irradiation. Conclusion Irradiation inhibits PCNA and c-fos expression in ceivicval cancer cells whereas it induces the expression of PCNA in mesenchymal tissue cells The present results suggest that expression of PCNA and c-fos may be regarded as a molecular marker for evaluat-ing the cancer cell proliferation and mesenchymal tissue repair during radiotherapy of human cervical cancer. |
