Abstract:

Objective   To investigate the association of expressions of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR ) and differentiated embryochondrocyte expressed gene 1 (DEC1) in lung adenocarcinoma to its clinicopathological characteristics. Methods   Expressions of EGFR and DEC1 in 75 cases of lung adenocarcinoma were detected by immnohistochemistry. Results   The positive membrane expression rates of EGFR and nuclear DEC1 in lung adenocarcinoma tissues were 45.3%(34/75)and 54.7%(41/75)respectively, which were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (P<0.001). Expression of membrane EGFR in lung adenocarcinoma was related to tissue histological differentiation (P=0.033), lymph node metastasis(P=0.006) and distant metastasis(P=0.043). Expression of nuclear DEC1 in lung adenocarcinoma was associated with patients′ age(P=0.026) and tumor size(P=0.047). Co-expression of EGFR and DEC1 in lung adenocarcinoma was related to lymph node metastasis(P=0.024). Conclusion   The interaction of EGFR and DEC1 promotes lymph node metastasis in lung adenocarcinoma.
