Abstract
Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase-inducible factor (CD147), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) in gastric cancer tissues and clinical pathology and prognosis. Methods From June 2016 to June 2018, 80 gastric cancer specimens from the First People's Hospital of Taizhou were collected as observation group, and another 60 normal specimens of gastric mucosa adjacent to cancer were selected as control group.The expressions of CD147, MMP-9 and HER-2 were detected by SP immunohistochemical method.The positive rates of CD147, MMP-9 and HER-2 protein expression, the positive rates of CD147, MMP-9 and HER-2 protein expression in different pathological characteristics, and the positive rates of CD147, MMP-9 and HER-2 protein expression in different prognosis were compared between the two groups. Results The positive rates of CD147 (73.75%), MMP-9 (76.25%) and HER-2 (42.50%) in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (21.67%, 25.00%, 5.00%), the differences were statistically significant (χ2=37.233, 36.288, 24.797, all P 0.05). The positive rates of CD147 (93.88%), MMP-9 (95.92%) and HER-2 (61.22%) with lymph node metastasis were higher than those without lymph node metastasis (41.94%, 45.16%, 12.90%), the differences were statistically significant (χ2=26.462, 27.012, 18.142, all P<0.05). The positive rates of CD147 (96.15%), MMP-9 (92.31%) and HER-2 (69.23%) in the death group were higher than those in the survival group (62.96%, 68.52%, 29.63%), the differences were statistically significant(χ2=9.987, 5.484, 11.263, all P<0.05). Conclusion High expression of CD147, MMP-9 and HER-2 proteins in gastric cancer tissues is closely related to invasion and metastasis, which can become a new prognostic marker and therapeutic target of gastric cancer.
