The significance of laminin and cadherin expression in human colorectal cancer was investigated by immunohistochemical assay, and its correlation with liver metastasis was analyzed. In the synchronous metastasis group, 17 of 34 cases (50%) showed positive staining of laminin, 14 (41%) of cadherin, and 5 (14%) a decreased rate of cadherin. In the metachronous metastasis group, 17 of 30 (57%) showed positive staining of laminin, 12 (40%) of cadherin, and 6 (20%) a decreased rate of cadherin. In a control group (free of disease for 5 years), in spite of no significant differences in clinicopathological factors compared with the other two groups, only 2 of 37 cases (5%) showed positive staining of laminin, 8 (22%) in cadherin, and 2 (5%) a decreased rate of cadherin. Thus, the metastatic groups were significantly higher than the control group in expression of laminin, but no significant difference in expression of cadherin was observed. These findings suggest that laminin is a useful parameter for predicting liver metastasis.
