AbstractThis study examined the association between cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) overexpression and microsatellite instability (MSI) in gastric cancer. COX-2 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry and scored in a semi-quantitative manner whereas MSI status was characterized by nine microsatellite markers. The clinicopathological features of cancers including survival data were analyzed. Of the 109 gastric cancers studied, COX-2 overexpression and high level of MSI (MSI-H) was detected in 64.2 and 22.0% cases respectively. Gastric tumors with MSI-H phenotypes had significantly lower level of COX-2 expression levels when compared to MSI-L and MSS tumors (P = 0.002). Moreover, COX-2 overexpression was associated with tumor invasion beyond submucosa (P = 0.045) and there was a trend favoring better survival in gastric cancers without COX-2 overexpression (P = 0.07). The results from this study suggest that gastric cancer with microsatellite instability or COX-2 overexpression present with diverse clinicopathological features. © 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
