PG - 352-5 AB - OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical significance of p16 and C-myc expression in the laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). METHOD: Immunohisto-chemical detection of p16 proteins and C-myc proteins, in 47 cases of LSCC and 6 cases of normal tissues from the larynx, were conducted in paraffin-embeded sections. RESULTS: No staining was found in 6 cases of normal tissue; The positive expression of p16 and C-myc proteins expression rates did not correlate with sex, age and position of the tumors (P > 0.05); but related to the staging and grade of LSCC (P < 0.05). The expression of C-myc proteins were higher in the case with lymph nodal metastasis than that without lymph nodal metastasis (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The expression of p16 and C-myc protein may play an important role in the development of LSCC, and may be a new indicator to assess the prognosis of LSCC.
