Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of ABCG2 in human gastric carcinoma and its clinical significance.Methods:Expression of ABCG2 was examined with immunohistochemical technique in the specimens from 45 gastric carcinoma tissues and 30 surrounding normal tissues.The mRNA expression of ABCG2 was measured by RT-PCR and real-time quantitative PCR in 30 cases of gastric carcinoma and normal gastric mucosa, respectively.Results:ABCG2 expression was observed in 28 of 45(62.2%) cases by immunohistochemical analysis.In ABCG2-positive tumors, adjacent non-neoplastic tissue was similarly analyzed, revealed that ABCG2 was up-regulated in gastric carcinoma.ABCG2 expression in poorly differentiated/undifferentiated carcinoma was significantly higher than that in well/moderately-differentiated carcinoma(P < 0.05).The mRNA expression of ABCG2 was significantly higher than that in normal gastric mucosa(P < 0.05).Conclusion:ABCG2 plays an important role in the multi-drug resistance of gastric carcinoma.ABCG2 might be an important factor in the research of gastric cancer stem cell.

ABCG2 expression in poorly differentiated / undifferentiated carcinoma was significantly higher than that in well and moderately-differentiated carcinoma (P <0.05). mRNA Expression of ABCG2 was significantly higher than that of normal gastric mucosa (P <0.05) .Conclusion: ABCG2 plays an important role in the multi-drug r esistance of gastric carcinoma .ABCG2 might be an important factor in the research of gastric cancer stem cell.
