    Abstract:
    Expression of p53, c-erB2, CEA proteins in 15 cases of normal colorectal mucosa, 40 adenoma and 40 carcinoma of colon were studied with immunohistochemistry. The positive rate of p53, c-erbB2, CEA in colorectal carcinomas were significantly higher than those in adenoma. The positive rate of p53 in adenoma with severe atypical hyperplasia was higher than that in the mild (P< 0.01), and was higher in colorectal carcinomas of poor differentiation that that in the well-differentiated ones (P< 0.05). The novel type monoclonal antibody of CEA Col-1 had a high sensitivity and specificity for the tissue of colorectal carcinoma in which the positive rate was 85%. The results suggested the alteration p53, c-erbB2 are involve in the tumorgenesis and development of colorectal carcinoma; and detection of p53, c-erbB2 and CEA proteins are helpful in distinguishing benign and malignant polyps of colon.
