Abstract
Glypicans (GPC) are involved in the developmental morphogenesis and regulatory processes of cell signalling. Abnormal expression has been observed in different cancer types. One hundred and thirty-seven colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and 44 nodal metastases were used to create tissue microarrays. Immunohistochemistry was done to detect and evaluate the impact of immunostaining patterns of GPC-3 protein in CRC. GPC-3 immunostaining is increased in CRC and nodal metastasis (p < 0.001) and was not association with clinicopathological parameters. GPC-3 immunostaining was associated with longer disease-free survival (p = 0.021) and overall survival (p = 0.05). For the first time, we show GPC-3 immunostaining association with survival outcomes in CRC. GPC-3 may be used as an independent prognostic factor for survival in CRC.
期刊介绍：
Polish Journal of Pathology is an official magazine of the Polish Association of Pathologists and the Polish Branch of the International Academy of Pathology. For the last 18 years of its presence on the market it has published more than 360 original papers and scientific reports, often quoted in reviewed foreign magazines. A new extended Scientific Board of the quarterly magazine comprises people with recognised achievements in pathomorphology and biology, including molecular biology and cytogenetics, as well as clinical oncology. Polish scientists who are working abroad and are international authorities have also been invited. Apart from presenting scientific reports, the magazine will also play a didactic and training role.
