摘要: 目的 探讨环氧化酶-2(COX-2)和血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)在人脑星形细胞瘤中的表达及其与肿瘤临床病理分级的关系。方法 通过免疫组化SP法测定COX-2和VEGF在50例人脑星形细胞瘤和10例正常脑组织中的表达。结果 COX-2、VEGF在人脑星形细胞瘤中的表达高于正常脑组织(P<0.001)。COX-2和VEGF与人脑星形细胞瘤临床病理分级显著相关(P<0.05)。人脑星形细胞瘤中COX-2与VEGF的表达存在相关性。结论 COX-2和VEGF参与人脑星形细胞瘤的发生、发展且与其恶性表型有关;COX-2可能与人脑星形细胞瘤的血管形成有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the expression of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and their relationship with the clinicopathological characteristics of human astrocytomas.Methods Immunohistochemistry method was used to investigate the expression of COX-2 and VEGF among human astrocytoma samples (n=50) and normal brain tissue (n=10) respectively. Results The positive rate of COX-2 and VEGF was significantly different between the human astrocytomas and normal brain tissue(P<0.01).The expression of COX-2 in human astrocytomas was significantly related to the tumor's pathological grades(P<0.05).So was the expression of VEGF(P<0.05).The expression of VEGF was closely associated with COX-2(P<0.01).Conclusions COX-2 and VEGF may be involve in gliomas'occurance and development.Expression of COX-2 and VEGF protein was positively correlate with the malignant phenotype of gliomas.
