Abstract:

Objective

To study the expressions of survivin and minichromosome maintenance protein 2(MCM2) in breast cancer tissue, and explore their clinical significance in the development of breast cancer.

Methods

The expressions of survivin and MCM2 were detected using immunohistochemical staining SP method in 60 cases of breast cancer (the pathologic type was infiltrating ductal carcinoma) and 40 cases of breast fibroadenoma treated in Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical College from January 2003 to January 2007. χ2 test and Spearman rank correlation analysis were used for data analysis.

Results

The positive expression rate of survivin in breast cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in the fibroadenoma(12.50%vs 71.67%;χ2=33.661,P=0.000). The survivin expression showed a significant correlation with the different histological grade of breast cancer (10.00%vs 58.33%;χ2 =9.941, P=0.007). The positive expression rate of MCM2 in breast cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in the fibroadenoma (χ2 =23.567, P = 0.000). The expression of MCM2 showed a significant correlation with tumor diameter,histological grade, clinical stage, axillary lymph node metastasis (χ2=4.239,9.307,5.126,6.655;P<0.05).The expressions of survivin and MCM2 in breast cancer were positively correlated(r=0.294,P=0.023).

Conclusion

The expressions of survivin and MCM2 might be related to the development of breast cancer,which might be helpful in the diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer.
