目的:探索X-射线修复交叉互补基因1(X-ray repair cross-complementing gene 1,XRCC1)和真核生物翻译起始因子4E结合蛋白1(eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein 1,EIF4EBP1)在食管胃结合部腺癌(adenocarcinoma...目的:探索X-射线修复交叉互补基因1(X-ray repair cross-complementing gene 1,XRCC1)和真核生物翻译起始因子4E结合蛋白1(eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E binding protein 1,EIF4EBP1)在食管胃结合部腺癌(adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction,AEG)以及癌旁组织中的表达差异,进一步研究这些表达与AEG患者的临床病理特点之间的联系。方法:从TCGA(The Cancer Genome Atlas)数据库中检索了XRCC1和EIF4EBP1在胃癌患者中的表达水平和临床数据,并从中筛选出AEG患者的相关数据。研究其在胃癌和AEG中的表达水平和相关性,以及AEG的表达水平与总生存期之间的联系。对我院128例2014年1月至2019年12月的AEG组织和癌旁组织石蜡包埋切片进行免疫组化(immunohistochemistry,IHC)染色,检测XRCC1和EIF4EBP1蛋白的表达水平,同时收集患者的相关临床资料。研究这两种蛋白质的表达水平和它们之间的相关性,以及它们的表达水平与临床病理特征之间的联系。结果:在TCGA数据库里,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1在412个胃癌组织样本中的表达水平明显超过了36个正常组织样本(P<0.001)。并且在这412个胃癌组织样本中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的表达之间呈正相关关系(r=0.349,P<0.001)。在其中的AEG患者中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1在99例AEG组织样本中的表达水平明显超过了14例正常食管胃结合部组织样本(XRCC1:P=0.015,EIF4EBP1:P=0.046),但在这99例AEG组织中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的表达之间没有显著相关性(P=0.066)。在临床样本中,128例AEG组织样本中XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的高表达率分别为53.1%(68/128)和82%(105/128),超过了癌旁组织样本的高表达率33.6%(43/128)和54.7%(70/128),且在128例AEG组织样本中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的表达呈现出正相关性(r=0.245,P=0.005)。在AEG组织中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的表达与患者的大体类型、是否神经侵犯、有无脉管癌栓、分化程度、T分期、N分期、HER-2的表达、临床分期以及总生存期之间,没有显示出具有统计学意义的相关性。在对AEG患者的总生存状况进行多因素分析时,脉管癌栓的形成(P=0.002)和临床分期(P=0.003)与患者的总生存率有着显著的关联。结论:在AEG组织中,XRCC1和EIF4EBP1的表达水平相对于癌旁组织更高,并且这两者表达之间存在正相关关系。在不同的XRCC1和EIF4EBP1表达水平的AEG患者中,无论是大体类型、是否侵犯神经、有无脉管癌栓、分化程度、T分期、N分期、HER-2的表达、临床分期还是总生存期,都没有显著的差异。脉管癌栓及临床分期是决定AEG患者生存预后的关键因素。展开更多
