Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of long non-coding RNA(LncRNA TTN-AS1)TTN-AS1 and squalene epoxidase(SQLE)in rectal cancer,and their correlation with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis.Methods A total of 90 rectal cancer patients diagnosed and treated in Longquan Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2018 to January 2020 were selected as the research subjects.Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of LncRNA TTN-AS1 in tissues.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of SQLE in tissues.The relationship between LncRNA TTN-AS1,SQLE and clinicopathological characteristics of rectal cancer were compared.K-M curve analysis was used to analyze the impact of LncRNA TTN-AS1 and SQLE on the prognosis of rectal cancer.COX regression analysis was used to analyze factors affecting the prognosis of rectal cancer.Results The relative expression level of Lnc RNA TTN-AS1(3.12±0.45)and the positivity rate of SQLE(71.11％)protein in rectal cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent tissues(0.91±0.12,8.89％),and the differences were significant(t/x2=45.156,72.593,all P＜0.001).The expression of Lnc RNA TTN-AS1 was positively correlated with SQLE in rectal cancer tissue(r=0.589,P＜0.001).The relative expressions of Lnc RNA TTN-AS1(4.26±0.52,4.10±0.49),SQLE(88.57％,91.43％)in tumor TNM stage Ⅲ and lymph node metastasis were higher than those in tumor TNM stage Ⅰ～Ⅱ(2.39±0.40,60.00％)and tissues without lymph node metastasis(2.50±0.42,58.18％),and the differences were significant(t/x2=8.409～19.211,all P＜0.05).The 3-year survival rates of the LncTTN-AS1 high expression group and low expression group were 50.00％(22/44)and 86.96％(40/46),respectively,and the difference between the curves was significant(Log-rank x=14.205,P=0.001).The 3-year survival rates of the SQLE positive and negative groups were 64.06％(41/64)and 88.46％(23/26),respectively,and the difference between the curves was significant(Log-rank x2=6.291,P=0.012).Lnc RNA TTN-AS1 high expression(HR=2.552,P=0.001),SQLE positive(HR=1.754,P=0.004),tumor TNM stage Ⅲ(HR=1.625,P=0.030),and lymph node metastasis were(HR=2.797,P=0.011)independent risk factors for the prognosis of rectal cancer.Conclusion The increased expression of LncRNA TTN-AS1 and SQLE in rectal cancer tissue are associated with TNM staging and lymph node metastasis,and both are tumor marker for evaluating the prognosis of rectal cancer.
