Objective: To investigate the expression of subunit A (ATP6V1A) of V-type proton ATPase in esophageal chronic inflammation, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and squamous carcinoma tissues of esophagus, and its relationship with the progression of esophageal carcinoma. Methods: Pathological wax specimens of the esophagus pathologically diagnosed as chronic inflammation, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and squamous carcinoma were collected for determining the expression of ATP6V1A in groups using immunohistochemical method, and analyzing its relationship with gender, age, tumor location, tumor size, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis and etc. Results: The expression levels of ATP6V1A in chronic inflammation, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, and squamous carcinoma tissues of esophagus were gradually increased, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The expression of ATP6V1A was significantly correlated with the clinical stage and lymph node metastasis for the patients with esophageal squamous carcinoma. Conclusion: ATP6V1A may play an important role in the development of esophageal carcinoma, and detecting its expression is conductive to the early diagnosis of esophageal carcinoma, and selection of relevant treatment regimens as well. |
