Abstract
Aim: To investigate argyrophilic proteins associated with nucleolar organizer regions (Ag-NOR proteins) in proliferating cells in connection with clinical and morphological parameters and survival in patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung.
Materials and methods: Specimens of 94 operated patients with lung adenocarcinoma were investigated using double staining for antigen Ki-67 (Clone MIB-1, DAKO) by immunohistochemistry and Ag-NOR proteins staining with silver nitrate.
Results: In the tumor tissue Ag-NOR proteins in the MIB-1 positive cells correlated with clinical and morphological parameters on TNM-system: T-index, the tumor size, N-index, disease stage and differentiation. Survival of patients with a small area of Ag-NOR proteins in the MIB-1 positive cells was better than in patients with large area. The area of Ag-NOR proteins in the MIB-1 positive cells – is an independent prognostic factor in patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung.
Conclusion: The area of Ag-NOR proteins in the MIB-1 positive cells correlated with clinical and morphological parameters of the TNM-system and survival in patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung.About the Authors
