Popis: Background Esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) poses serious threats to human life. Hence, the search for effective bio-markers to predict the occurrence and development of ESCC is of emerging significance.Methods We used immunohistochemistry to semi-quantitatively detect CUEDC2 expression in 50 ESCC cases and 20 adjacent tissues, analyzing the relationship with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis outcomes. Additionally, investigating the differences between CUEDC2 and CD68 in ESCC.Result CUEDC2 expression was higher in 9 ESCC tissues and lower in 41 ESCC tissues. Whereas, CUEDC2 expression was higher in 11 adjacent tissues and lower of the rest 9 cases, and the differences were statistically significant (P0.05). Via the Kaplan-Meier method, CUEDC2 and tumor grade demonstrated an impact on ESCC prognosis ( PConclusion CUEDC2 was relatively lower expressed in ESCC and higher in adjacent tissues. There was no significant difference between CUEDC2 and ESCC clinicopathological characteristics.CUEDC2 and tumor grade presented an impact on ESCC prognosis. There might be an interaction between CD68 and CUEDC2.
