title: [Expression of cell cycle regulators in squamous cell carcinoma of maxillary sinus and their significance].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the clinicopathlogical significance of cyclinE, cyclinD1, P21WAF1/CIP1 and P27KIP1 expression in squamous cell carcinoma of maxillary sinus.
  
  
  METHODS
  The expression of cyclinE, cyclinD1, P21WAF1/CIP1 and P27KIP1 was examined by the method of immunohistochemistry in inflammatory mucosa of maxillary sinus(10), inverting papilloma of maxillary sinus(20) and squamous cell carcinoma of maxillary sinus (50).
  
  
  RESULTS
  (1) In inflammatory mucosa, inverting papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma, the positive immunostaining rates of cyclinD1 protein were 10.0%, 25.0%, 48.0% respectively (P < 0.05); cyclinE protein was 20.0%, 35.0%, 58.0% respectively (P < 0.05); P21WAF1/CIP1 protein was 80.0%, 65.0%, 40.0% respectively (P < 0.05) and P27KIP1 protein was 70.0%, 75.0%, 40.0% respectively (P < 0.05). (2) There was no significance between the clinical type, T stage and clinical stage of carcinoma of maxillary sinus and the expression of cyclinD1, cyclinE, P21WAF1/CIP1 and P27KIP1 (P > 0.05). (3) P21WAF1/CIP1 positive expression in highly, moderately and poorly differtiated carcinomas were 73.2% (11/15), 58.9% (11/19), 25.0% (4/16) respectively (P < 0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  (1) With the development of the lesion, the positive immunostaining rate of cyclinE and cyclinD1 protein increases, while the rate of P21WAF1/CIP1 and P27KIP1 protein decreases. (2) P21WAF1/CIP1 expression is associated with tumour cell differentiation. (3) The mutual mechenism of cell cycle regulators plays an important role in the squamous cell carcinoma of maxillary sinus. The quantity and the frequency of four kinds of gene expression increase with the progression of maxillary sinus carcinogenesis.
