Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical significance of Latexin(LXN) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC). Methods In this study, 183 cases of ESCC tissues and para-carcinoma tissues were evaluated for LXN expression by tissue microarray and immunohistochemistry. The relationship between the expression of LXN and clinical parameters(tumor size, T staging, N stagings, differentiation and TNM staging) and prognosis were analyzed. Results The positive rate of LXN expression was 48.6% in ESCC tissues, lower than 100.0% in para-carcinoma tissues. A significant correlation was observed between the expression of LXN and tumor size, T staging, N staging, tumor differentiation and TNM staging. Patients with LXN positive expression had longer overall survival than those without LXN expression. Conclusion LXN was down-regulated with the development and progression of ESCC and loss of LXN expression is associated with the poor prognosis of ESCC.
