bjective To study the change of mucins of expression in lithic cholecystitis and cholecystic adenomatiod polyps. MethodsMUC1 and MUC3 were detected in the mucosa of human normal gallbladders (20 cases, control group), of calcareous cholecystitis (38 cases, calcareous group) and of adenomatoid polyps (18 cases, polyp group) with immunohistochemical stains and Western blotting methods. ResultsThe positive rate and optical density values of MUC1 were increased significantly in calcareous and polyp group vs control group (P＜0.01), otherwise, MUC3 was decreased markedly (P＜0.01). Conclusion The expressions of MUC1, MUC3 were not synchronization in different lesions of cholecyst.
