Objective:To investigate the expression of Akt proteins in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and it’s relation with clinical grading.Methods:Firstly
the mRNA levels of Akt in HCC and liver tissue just around the tumor(LAT)were detected by semi-quantitative reverse transcription and the polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Then
analyzing the expression of Akt proteins in HCC and LAT by Western blot and immunohistochemical methods.Finally
the relation between Akt proteins level and HCC clinical grading was analyzed. Results:The expression of Akt in HCC are much higher than LAT
and there is a positive correlation between Akt proteins level and HCC clinical grading.Furthermore
Akt is highly concentrated in the nucleus of HCC.Conclusion:The over-expression of Akt may play an important role in the occurrence and development of HCC.
