摘要
p12 CDK2-associating protein 1 (p12(CDK2-AP1)) is a growth suppressor that negatively regulates cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) activities. In addition, p12(CDK2-AP1) has also been shown to interfere in DNA replication. A reduction of p12(CDK2-AP1) expression is known to be a negative prognostic , indicator in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma. To elucidate the role of p12(CDK2-AP1) expression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), we immunohistochemically examined the expression of p12(CDK2-AP1) protein in 120 resected ESCC specimens and determined its association with the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis. Of the 120 ESCCs, 79 (65.8%) showed positive staining (>= 25% of cancer cells showing p12(CDK2-AP1) expression), while 41 (34.2%) lacked the staining (<25% of cancer cells showing p12(CDK2-AP1) expression). Negative staining for p12(CDK2-AP1) was found to be significantly associated with advanced lesions [depth of tumor (P=0.001), lymph node metastasis (P<0.001), pathological stage (P<0.0001) and venous invasion (P<0.0001)], and a poor prognosis (disease-free survival and overall survival: log-rank P<0.05). The rate of lymph node metastasis in patients with p12(CDK2-AP1) negative-T1 ESCC was significantly higher than that in patients with p12(CDK2-AP1) positive one (P<0.05). These results suggest the down-regulation of p12(CDK2-AP1) to be related to tumor aggressiveness and a poor prognosis in patients with ESCC.
