摘要目的 检测CD44+/CIY24-细胞在乳腺癌组织及细胞系中的分布及数量,探讨其与乳腺癌常用标志物表达和乳腺癌分子亚型的关系.方法 采用免疫组织化学SP双染及单染法,分别检测了60例乳腺浸润性导管癌中的CD44及C1724的共表达情况和ER、PR、HER2、人雌激素诱导蛋白PS2、bcl-2、nm23的单独表达情况,同时检测了三种乳腺痛细胞系(MCF-7、MDA-MB-468及MDA-MB-231)中CD44及CD24的表达情况.结果 不同病例标本中CD44+/C1724-细胞的数量差异较大,分布无明显规律,总阳性率为65.0%;CD44+/CD24-细胞数量与患者年龄、肿瘤大小、淋巴结转移情况及ER、PR、HER-2、人雌激素诱导蛋白PS2、bcl-2、nm23表达情况无关(P均>0.05);CD44+/CD24-细胞数量与乳腺癌分子亚型无关.CD44+/CIY24-细胞在MCF-7、MDA-MB-468及MDA-MB-231细胞系中的比例分别为<1%、5%及>80%.结论 CD44+/CD24-细胞存在于部分乳腺癌组织及细胞系中,其数量及分布与乳腺癌的分子亚型和临床病理参数无直接关系.

abstractsObjective To study the distribution and quantity of CD44VCD24- cells in breast cancer tissue and the cell lines,and as well as its correlation with the expression of various breast cancer markers and molecular subtyping of breast carcinoma.Methods The expression of CD44 / CD24,estrogen receptor,progesterone receptor,HER2,human estrogen-induced protein PS2,bcl-2 and nm23 in 60 cases of invasive ductal carcinoma of breast were studied by either single or double immunohistochemical staining.The co-expression of CD44 and CD24 in 3 breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7,MDA-MB-468,and MDA-MB- 231) was also examined.Results The quantity and distribution of CD44 + /CD24- cells varied greatly and no specific patterns were identified.The percentage of CD44 + /CD24- in breast cancer was 65%.The amount of CD44+/CD24- cells did not correlate with the age of patients,lymph node metastasis,tumor　 size,molecular subtypes and expression of various breast cancer markers in breast carcinoma.The proportion of CD44+/CD24- cells in MCF-7,MDA-MB-468,and MDA-MB-231 cell lines was < 1%,5% and > 80% ,respectively.Conclusions CD44+ /CD24- cells are demonstrated in certain breast cancer tissues and cell lines.However,there is no relationship obtained between the quantity or the distribution of these cells and the molecular subtyping or the clinicopathologic parameters in breast cancer.
