Expressions of MMP-7,VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 in colorectal carcinoma and its clinic significance
Objective:To study the expressions of matrix metalloproteinase-7(MMP-7),vascular endothelial growth factor-D (VEGF-D) and (Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-3)(VEGFR-3) in colorectal carcinomas and relationship between MMP-7 ex-pression and lymphangiogenesis. Methods:124 primary tumors with colorectal carcinoma were studied,together with 70 normal col-orectal tissues by immunohistochemistry. Results:The expressions of MMP-7,VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 were higher in the primary tu-mors than those in mucosa. MMP-7 expression was associated with tumor volume,Dukes stage,invasive depth and lymph node metastasis. VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 expressions were associated with tumor volume and lymph node metastasis. There was positive correlation between MMP-7,VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 in primary tumors. The higher expressions of MMP-7,VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 indicated worse prognosis in colorectal carcinoma. Conclusion:MMP-7 overexpression was closely related to the expressions of VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 that might be involved in the lymphangiogenesis. MMP-7,VEGF-D and VEGFR-3 might be helpful to predict the prognosis of colorectal carcinoma.
