Özet

We investigated pS2 and HSP-70 protein expression in 36 pancreatic adenocarcinomas for their effect on disease extent and patient outcome. The cases were reviewed, histologically diagnosed, typed, graded, and staged. Lymphatic vessel, blood vessel and perineural invasion as well as lymph node, resection margin and adjacent organ involvements were re-evaluated. The standard streptavidin biotin immunperoxidase method was used for immunostaining with pS2 and HSP-70 antibodies. Cytoplasmic staining with both antibodies was scored semiquantitatively. The scores were compared with histopathological prognostic parameters using statistical methods. Standard prognostic parameters and staining scores were tested by survival analysis in terms of their effect on survival.
