Popis: | Adiponectin, an adipocyte-secreted endogenous insulin sensitizer, appears to play an important role in progression of several malignancies. Expression of adiponectin receptors—AdipoR1 and AdipoR2—has been documented in gastric cancer (GC) cell lines, but its role in GCs is still controversial. We investigated expression level of 2 adiponectin receptors and correlated their expression with prognosis in GC patients. We immunohistochemically evaluated AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 expression in 59 non-neoplastic gastric mucosas, 48 gastric adenomas, 250 GCs, and 58 lymph nodes involved by metastatic GC and assessed its association with clinicopathologic characteristics. Expression rates of both receptors increased stepwise in non-neoplastic gastric mucosa, gastric adenoma, intestinal-type GC, and metastatic GC (p |
