摘      要：AIM: To investigate the mRNA expressions of bFGF and MMP-9 in gastric carcinomas so as to reveal their correlations with tumor microvascular density (MVD), invasion, metastasis, and ***: In situ hybridization and immunohistochemical techniques were used to detect the expressions of bFGFmRNA and MMP-9mRNA and the proteins of CD34 in 105 specimens of gastric ***: In situ hybridization study showed that positive rates of bFGF mRNA and MMP-9mRNA expressions were 60.95% and 59.19%; the mean MVD was 46.09±11.52 and 43.75±13.41, respectively in piece/0.72 mm2 in tumors with bFGFmRNA and MMP-9mRNA positive expressions,which were significantly higher than those with negative expression (29.41±12.47; 33.45±13.92 piece/0.72 mm2,respectively). The positive expression rates of bFGFmRNA and MMP-9mRNA were correlated to the tumor invasion depth (rs = 0.211, P= 0.031; rs = 0.335, P= 0.001), growing pattern (rs= 0.324, P= 0.001; rs= 0.267, P= 0.006), vessel invasion (rs = 0.579, P = 0.001; rs = 0.209, P = 0.032),lymph node metastasis (rs = 0.405, P = 0.001; rs= 0.343,P = 0.001) and distant metastasis (rs= 0.474, P = 0.001;rs = 0.468, P = 0.001), but not correlated to tumortype (rs= 0.134, P= 0.173; rs= 0.103, P= 0.145) anddifferentiations (rs = 0.096, P= 0.332; rs = 0.102, P= 0.298).The mean MVD was much higher in the tumors withinfiltrating growth at stage T3-T4, with vessel invasion, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis than those with expanding growth type (t = 10.105, P= 0.001) at stage T1-T2 (t = 5.961, P = 0.001), with non-vessel invasion (t= 7.394, P= 0.001), non-lymph node metastasis (t= 3.819, P= 0.01) and non-distant metastasis (t= 10.578, P = 0.001). Positive correlation was observed between MVD and the expressions of bFGFmRNA and MMP-9mRNA(t= 3.207, P= 0.002; t= 7.035, P= 0.001, respectively). The mean survival time and 5-year survival rate werelower in cases with MVD over 39.5 and the positive expressions of bFGFmRNA and MMP-9mRNA th
