Objective To explore the correlation between the expression of lung resistance-related protein (LRP) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and that in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL). Methods The S-P immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of LRP in specimens and PBL of 49 patients with NSCLC. Para-carcinoma tissues and PBL of 10 normal people were used as controls. Results The positive expression rate of LRP was 78.2%
46.4% and 66.8% in carcinoma tissues
para-carcinoma tissues and PBL
respectively. The expression rate of LRP in carcinoma tissues was higher than that in para-carcinoma tissues (P<0.05)
and positively correlated with that in PBL of the patients. The expression rate of LRP in adenocarcinomas was higher than that in squamous cell carcinomas (P<0.01). The expression rate of LRP in the normal people was lower than in NSCLC patients(P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of LRP in PBL of NSCLC patients may indirectly represent the expression of LRP in carcinoma tissues.
