RESUMEN
Purpose To study the expression of biomolecules of PI3K-AKT signaling pathway including CD44,TRIM24,TAGLN-2,ER and PR in breast invasive ductal carcinoma,and to explore their clinicopathologic significance.Methods The expression of CD44,TRIM24,TAGLN-2,ER and PR in 73 cases of breast invasive ductal carcinoma were detected by immunohistochemist~ (IHC) technology.And the relationship between the expression of these biomarkers and the age of patients,tumor size,histological grade,lymph node metastasis was analyzed.Besides,the influence of these biomarkers on prognosis and the relationship between the expression of these biomarkers were also analyzed.Results There was no significant relationship between the expression of these biomarkers and the age of patients,tumor size,histological grade,lymph node metastasis.CD44 expression was positively conelated with TAGLN-2 expression (r =0.311,P =0.007),TRIM24 expression was positively correlated with TAGLN-2 expression (r =0.421,P =0.000).CD44 expression was negatively correlated with ER expression (r =-0.285,P =0.015).ER expression was positively correlated with PR expression (r =0.598,P =0.000).The postoperative 5-year cumulative survival-rate of CD44 positive group was lower than those of CD44 negative group (P =0.002),in contrast,the postoperative 5-year survival rate of ER positive group was higher than those of ER negative group (P =0.026).Conclusion Through PI3K-AKT signaling pathway,CD44 and TRIM24 may up-regulate TAGLN-2 expression,however,CD44 may down-regulate ER and PR expression.CD44 and ER may act an useful predictor for the prognosis of breast invasive ductal carcinoma.Combined detection of CD44,ER and PR may provide additional therapeutic information which may be useful in breast cancer treatment.
RESUMEN
Objective To detect the expression of TRIM24 in uroepithelium cell carcinoma of bladder(BUCC)and analyze the relationship be?tween its expression and clinical pathological factors. Methods Immunohistochemical methods were employed to evaluate protein level of TRIM24 in BUCC. Results TRIM24 expression was observed in the nuclear compartments of tumor cells,while normal epithelia of bladder tissues exhibited negative results. For 72 BUCC tissues,TRIM24 overexpression(score≥4)was observed in 41.6%of cases(30/72). TRIM24 expression correlat?ed with invasive depth(P=0.029)and patients with high TRIM24 expression had high grade of BUCC(P=0.043). Conclusion There was sig?nificant over expression of TRIM24 in BUCC,which was correlated with poor differentiation and high grade of BUCC. It may become a candidate tar?get gene for the treatment of human uroepithelium cell carcinoma of bladder.
