Objective To explore the correlation of the expression of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues and peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). Methods ERCC1 expressions in specimens and PBLs from 47 patients with Stage II and III NSCLC and healthy PBLs were detected with double immunofluorescence staining. Results The positive expression rates of ERCC1 were 53.19%
48.94%
and 20% in carcinoma tissues
PBLs of NSCLC
and PBLs of healthy people
respectively. The expression rate of ERCC1 in carcinoma tissues was higher than that in PBLs of healthy people (P0.05) and positively correlated with that in PBLs of the patients. Conclusion The expression of ERCC1 in PBLs of NSCLC patients can indirectly represent ERCC1 expression in carcinoma tissues.
