Relation between the expression of RARα,RARβ and endometrial carcinoma
Objective:To evaluate the role of the retinoic acid receptor α(RARα)
retinoic acid receptor β(RARβ) in the devel-opment and prognosis of the endometrial carcinoma by detecting the expression of these receptors. Methods:48 cases of paraffin-embedded tissues were selected
including 42 cases of adenocarcinoma and 6 cases of adeno-squamous carcinoma of endometrium. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the level of RARα and RARβ. The relation between the expression of these receptors and the clinical pathological parameters was evaluated. Results:The positive expression ratios of the RARα and RARβ were 47.92%(23/48)and 25.00%(12/48)
respectively. The level of RARα was significantly higher than that of RARβ(P<0.05). The expression of RARα in the endometrial carcinoma increased with the increase of the pathological stage and the decrease of the pathological differentiation
and the differences were significan(tP<0.01). But the relation between the expression of these two receptors and the histological classifecation was not significant
as well as the relation with the invasive depth in the muscle(P>0.05). The level of the RARβ decreased with the increasing of the malignancy extent of the endome-trial adenocarcinoma(P<0.05)
but there was no relationship between the level of the RARβ and the pathological stage
the his- tological classification
the invasive depth in the muscle(P>0.05)respectively. Conclusion:There is close relation between the ex-pression of the RARα and the development of the endometrial carcinoma. The defect of the RARβ and the high expression of the RARα indicates a bad prognosis of the endometrial carcinoma. Detection of these two is benefited receptors together for us to estimate the prognosis of the carcinoma.
