目的探讨结直肠癌组织中肌动蛋白结合蛋白transgelin-2的表达及其与临床病理因素的关系,评价transgelin-2在结直肠癌预后判断中的价值。方法应用组织芯片结合免疫组化方法,检测2002年9月至2004年4月120例手术切除的结直肠癌患者组织中transgelin-2的表达情况,男性74例,女性46例,年龄26—89岁,中位年龄64.5岁。采用x。检验其与临床病理因素的关系,Log-rank检测生存率差别,Cox比例风险模型分析多个变量对生存时间的影响。结果transgelin-2在结直肠癌组织中的阳性表达率为69.2%。transgelin-2的表达与分化程度(X。=5.420)、淋巴结转移(x2=45.577)、远处转移(x2=12.009)及TNM分期(x2=47.577)相关(P〈0.05)。transgelin-2阳性表达者术后生存时间(39±5)个月,阴性表达者为(59±3)个月,Kaplan—Meier生存分析显示,transgelin-2表达与生存时间密切相关(P=0.003)。Cox分析显示,远处转移(RR=8.318,95%CI:4.119~16.790)、淋巴结转移(RR=2.794,95%CI:1.246—6.263)和transgelin-2表达(RR=1.834,95%CI:1.118~2.793)是影响结直肠癌患者预后的独立因素(P〈0.05)。结论肌动蛋白结合蛋白transgelin-2的表达水平与结直肠癌临床病理因素及预后相关,可能成为判断结直肠癌转移和预后的潜在标志物。
[ Abstract] Objectives To investigate the relationship between the expression of transgelin-2 and the clinicopathological factors of colorectal carcinoma and evaluate the value of transgelin-2 in prognostic assessment of the colorectal cancer patients. Methods Using tissue microarray and immunohistochemical methods, we examined transgelin-2 of 120 colorectal cancer patients received surgical treatment from September 2002 to April 2004, including 74 male and 46 female, age from 26 to 89 years. Analyzed the relationship between transgelin-2 and both the clinicpathologcial features and prognosis of the colorectal cancer by using X2 test and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Cox proportion hazard regression analysis was used to study the independent prognostic factors. Results The positive rate of transgelin-2 expression was 69.2% in colorectal carcinoma. The transgelin-2 expression correlated with differentiation degree ( X2 = 5.420) , lymph nodes metastasis ( X2 = 45. 577 ), distant metastasis ( X2 = 12. 009 ), and TNM staging ( X2 = 47. 577 ). The survival time was ( 39 :l: 5 ) months in patients with positive expression of the trangelin-2, while (59 ~ 3 ) months in patients with negative expression. The patient's survival time was statistically correlated with the transgelin-2 expression (P = 0. 003 ). Distant metastasis (RR = 8. 318, 95% CI: 4. 119-16. 790 ), lymph nodes metastasis ( RR = 2. 794, 95% CI: 1. 246-6. 263 ) and transgelin-2 expression (RR = 1. 834, 95% CI: 1. 118-2. 973 ) were independent prognostic factors in patients with colorectal cancer (P 〈 0. 05 ). Conclusions The expression of transgelin-2 is correlated with clinicopathological features and prognosis in coloreetal cancer, may be the potential marker of metastasis and the prognosis of coloreetal cancer patients.
