The expression and significance of Survivin mRNA in human prostate cancer / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the expression of Srvivin mRNA in the occurrence and progress of prostate cancer.Methods The inhibitor of apoptosis gene Survivin mRNA in 45 prostate cancer cases and 30 benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) cases were detected by hybridization in situ technique.Results The average optical density of prostate cancer groups(0.4232±0.0085)was signifi cantly higher than BPH groups (0.3303±0.0834) (P=0.001 ).Among the different pathological grades [G1(0.3401±0.0474), G2 (0.4270±0.0074), G3 (0.4560±0.0883)],the difference was statistically significant in the expression of Survivin mRNA (P= 0.004).It was found that there was positive correlation between the transfer of lymph (0.4557±0.7921)and the expression of Survivin mRNA in prostate cancer(P=0.005 ).Conclusion Survivin mRNA is overexpression in prostate cancer.It presumed that Survivin participate in genesis,development of prostate cancer and closely correlated with prognosis.
