Objective To detect the expressions of NKD1 and APC in breast carcinoma tissues and to explore the clinical significance of their existence and their correlation. Methods The study selected 75 patients with breast carcinoma as the observation group, and their corresponding normal breast tissues from the breast carcinoma tissues more than 5 cm as the control group. The expressions of two proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry. Their relationship with the pathological characteristics of breast carcinoma and the correlation of the two proteins were analyzed. Results The positive expression rates of NKD1 and APC in normal breast tissues were significantl higher than those in breast carcinoma tissues (82.67% vs. 36.00%, 89.33% vs. 45.33%, P < 0.05). The expression of NKD1 was not correlated with the age of patients with breast carcinoma (P > 0.05), while correlated with the degree of differentiation, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, and remote organ metastasis of breast carcinoma (P < 0.05). The expression of APC was not correlated with the age of patients with breast carcinoma, the degree of differentiation and lymph node metastasis of breast carcinoma (P > 0.05), while correlated with the TNM stage and remote organ metastasis of breast carcinoma (P < 0.05). The expressions of NKD1 and APC in breast carcinoma was positively correlated (r=0.609, P < 0.05). Conclusion NKD1 and APC may be involved in the development and remote organ metastasis of breast carcinoma, and the two proteins may have a synergistic role in breast carcinoma.
