摘要
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the expression of Elf-1 in NSCLC and to explore the relationship between expression of Elf-1 with survivin which is the most effective inhibitor of apoptosis protein( IAP ) in non-small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ). Methods Power Vi-sion-9000 immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate the expression of Elf-1 in tissue microarray containing 60 specimens of NSCLC and 9 specimens of normal tissue. The apoptotic cells were tested by terminal deoxynucleotidy transferase( TdT ) mediated Dutp-biotin nick end labelling ( TUNEL ). Results Elf-1 was detected in 1 of 9 normal tissues with weak positive, the positive rate of Elf-1 was 70% in NSCLC. The expression level of Elf was significantly associated with tumor differentiation, lymph node metastasis, clinical stage, and postoperative survival time ( all P < 0. 05 ). Overexpression of Elf-1 was associated with poor prognosis: the survival rate was significantly lower in positive patients than in negative patients ( P < 0. 01 ). Elf-1 expression in NSCLC was negatively associated with AI ( r = - 0. 708, P < 0. 01 ). Conclusion The results show that Elf-1 expression in NSCLC correlates with decreased apoptosis of tumor cells. Detecting of Elf expression can help to predict the malignant behavior of NSCLC.关键词
