[Expression and significance of the proteins in TSP-1 and NF-κB signal pathways of infantile capillary hemangioma]

To explore the significance of the relative proteins in thrombin sensitive protein(TSP-1) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signal pathways by detecting their expressions in different phases of hemangioma and the relations between them and microvessel density(MVD).Forty cases with hemangioma were randomly selected and divided into proliferative group(n =21) and involutional group(n =19) according to Mulliken standard.The expressions of TSP-1,CD36,p59fyn,Caspase-3,p38MAPK,NF-κBp65,p-IκBα,p-IKKβ,VEGF and CD34 in endothelial cells were detected by immunohistochemistry.The relevance between the proteins in TSP-1 and NF-κB signal pathways and MVD were compared and analyzed respectively.The expressions of TSP-1,CD36,p59fyn,Caspase-3,p38MAPK in proliferative hemangioma were all lower than those in involutional hemangioma (F=32.582,47.575,11.645,18.824,13.140;P =0.000,0.000,0.002,0.000,0.001).Conversely, the expressions of NF-κBp65,p-IκBα,p-IKKβ,VEGF in proliferative hemangioma were higher than those in involutional hemangioma(F =7.807,6.323,5.988,4.216;P =0.009,0.018,0.021,0.049).Meanwhile,MVD were different between the two groups(F =7.256,P =0.012).The expressions of TSP-1, CD36, p59fyn and MVD showed a negative relationship(rs =-0.420,-0.519,-0.388;P =0.021,0.003,0.034). Conversely, the expressions of NF-κBp65,pvIκBα,VEGF and MVD showed a positive relationship(rs =0.666,0.611,0.515;P =0.000,0.000,0.004).The expression of TSP-1 and NF-κBp65 showed a negative relationship (rs =-0.413,P =0.023).TSP-1 signal pathway and NF-κBp65 signal pathway may be interactive in evolution of infantile hemangioma, which has a potential role by effecting the progress of angiogenesis.
