Objective To study the expressions of c-myb and Bax proteins and their relationships with clinic-pathological characteristics in endometrial carcinoma. Methods The expressions of c-myb and Bax protein were detected by immunohistochemistry in 42 normal endometrial tissues and 68 endometrial carcinoma tissues. Apoptosis index was detected by TUNEL technique. Results The positive expression rates of c-myb and Bax in endometrial carcinoma were significantly higher than those in normal endometrial tissues (PPPPP>0.05). Conclusion Endometrial carcinoma has high expression of c-myb and Bax, and the expression status of both c-myb and Bax may be related to the malignant degree and prognosis of endometrial carcinoma.
