Esophagus cacinoma is one of the most common malignancy in our country,and Henan province also has higher morbility.It's mortality reside forth position in our country,whereas it's invasion and metastasis is the first cause of invoke esophagus cancer sufferer's obituary,so discussing the esophague cacinoma invasion and metastasis mechanism became one of the investgative hotspot.Tumor's occurrence and development are the course of multifactor,multistep, multistage and polygene alterative.Oncogene activation and tumor suppressor gene inactivation are the material basis of human tumor formation and development.Previous research found that the mutations and deletions of some tumor suppressor genes,such as p53,Rb,p16 and so on,are relate to malignancy occurrence.A new anti-oncogene named RECK(reversion inducing cysteine rich protein with Kazal motifs,RECK)was found in recent years.The expression of RECK closely relate to tumorous invasion,metastasis and angiogenesis.In recent years,there are several relevant studies about the relation between RECK and tumor invasion and metastasis in the fields of liver cancer,pancreatic cancer,breast cancer and lung cancer.Researches show that RECK gene's expression were negative correlate to tumorous invasiveness and the sufferers whose RECK gene higher expression have better prognoses than those with lower expression quantity.This gene's deletions or(and) mutation and depressing expression of mRNA or protein relate to tumorous occur,invasion,metastasis and histology grade.The mechanism may be that RECK regulated negatively tumour growth,invasion,metastasis through restraining the secretion and activity of MMP-2,MMP-9 and MT1-MMP.In addition, RECK can inhibit tumor growth,invasion and metastasis by inhibition of tumor angiogenesis.There have no other report both in China and abroad so far except the relevant articles pulished by our team before.In order to discuss RECK gene's relation to esophagus squama carcinogenesis and invasion,metastasis for more,sought early detection esophagues squama carcinogenesis and soakage transitionary indices and found available approach to restrain esophagus squama carcinogenesis and soakage transitionary,this topic firstly used RT-PCR, hybridization in situ and immunohistochemistry SP combine detected the expression of esophagus cancer verdure excision specimen's RECK,MMP-9mRNA and protein.We use immunohistochemistry SP detected blood vssel endotheliocyte growth factor in esophague squama,adjacentatypical hyperplasia tissue and normal esophagus mucous membrane tissue.At the same time,use resist CD105 antibody detected microvascular density(MVD) in 62 cases' esophagus squama carcinoma,and discussed the relationship among RECK, VEGF and MVD,revealed the relation of RECK and esophagus cancer invasion and metastasis.On this foundation,we constructed RECK's eukaryon expression vector successfully,then transfected it into esophagus cancer cell EC9706,use RT-PCR, hybridization in situ combine detected esophagus cancer cell EC9706's RECK, MMP-9mRNA expression level,respectively;Immunohistochemistry SP combined Western blot detected esophagus cancer verdure excision specimen's RECK,MMP-9 protein's expression level;The transfected cell's invasion ability was determined by Boyden-chamber model in vitro.In the final,apply nude mice lotus tunour experiment, combined use hybridization in situ,RT-PCR,immunohistochemistry detected the expression of RECK,MMP-9 at nude mice transplantation tumor,we in depth explorate upper regulate RECK's expression and activity restrain esophagus cancer invade in multi-aspect,such as gene,protein,cellular localization and cellular biology of tumor behavior,vitro invade cell experiment,in vivo nude mice achieve tumour experiment and so on.We try to illuminate the meaning in RECK's expression at esophagus squama carcinogenesis and development,invasion and metastasis.For more illuminate RECK gene repress esophagus squama carcinogenesis and development,invasion and metastasis's mechanism whether related to down regulate the expression of VEGF,depress MVD in tumour.Providing fundamental basis for deeply discuss esophagus carcinogenesis,invasion and metastasis mechanism and soght restrain esophagus squama carcinogenesis, developmental way.This study
