  • 简介:目的研究10号染色体缺失张力蛋白磷酸酶(phosphataseandtensinhomologuedeletedonchromosometen,PTFEN)、磷酸化Akt(P—Akt)及核转录因子-KB(NF—KB)在中耳胆脂瘤上皮中的表达,探讨P13K(phos—phatidylinositol-3-kinase,磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶)-Akt信号通路在中耳胆脂瘤上皮细胞过度增殖机制中的可能作用。方法采用免疫组织化学SP法(辣根酶标记链霉卵白素连接法,streptavidin—peroxidaseconjugatedmethod)检测30例中耳胆脂瘤组织标本与15例正常外耳道皮肤标本中PTEN、P—Akt及NF—KB蛋白的表达。结果PTEN蛋白阳性表达主要定位于上皮细胞核,其在中耳胆脂瘤上皮中阳性表达率为36.7%,明显低于正常外耳道皮肤组的9313%(P〈0.01);P—Akt蛋白阳性表达主要定位于上皮细胞胞质,其在中耳胆脂瘤上皮中阳性表达率为70.0%.明显高于正常外耳道皮肤组的26.7%(P〈0.01);NF—KB蛋白阳性表达定位于上皮细胞核.其在中耳胆脂瘤上皮中阳性表达率为63-3%,明显高于正常外耳道皮肤组的20.0%(P〈0.01)。在30例中耳胆脂瘤上皮组织中,PTEN分别与P—Akt、NF—KB蛋白的表达之间呈显著负相关(P〈0.01),而P—Akt和NF—KB蛋白的表达呈显著正相关(P〈0.01)。结论PTEN、P-Akt和NF—KB在中耳胆脂瘤上皮的异常表达可能在胆脂瘤的发生、发展过程中起重要作用。胆脂瘤上皮中P13K—Akt信号通路的激活可能参与了胆脂瘤上皮细胞过度增殖机制。
