Protein expression analysis for predicting recurrent laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: The expression of a number of proteins plays a major role in predicting recurrent laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of 16 selected proteins as prognostic indicators for recurrent and non-recurrent LSCC. Samples from a total of 41 patients with LSCC were investigated by immunohistochemistry. Digital image analysis was performed, and various associated factors were calculated. Histoscore (H-score) and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to divide protein expression in high and low for predicting disease recurrence. Disease-free survival (DFS) curves, crude hazard ratios (HRs) and adjusted HRs were analyzed and compared. Significantly different H-scores were found between the recurrent and non-recurren
