Expression and Clinical Significance of Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tissue
Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of nuclear proliferating antigen(Ki-67),SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tissue.Methods 97 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were selected,and their cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues(≥ 3 cm away from the edge of the cancer tissue)were collect-ed.The expression of Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 in the 2 samples was detected using immunohistochemistry;Collect age and other data of patients,and analyze the relationship between Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,p63 and various pathological characteristics of patients.Results The positive expression rates of Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 in cancer tissues were higher than those in nor-mal tissues adjacent to cancer,with statistical significance(P<0.05).The positive expression of Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 was not related to the age and gender of patients(P>0.05).Conclusion Ki-67,SOX2,C-Myc,and p63 are abnormally high ex-pressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma tissue,and their expression is related to the clinical stage,lymph node metastasis,and differentiation degree of patients,participating in the occurrence and development of the disease.
