Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane (CMTM)domain-containing family in clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC)and its significance.Methods Seventy-five samples of ccRCC were collected,including 50 males and 25 females,mean age (59 ± 10)years.There were 34 cases in clinical stage Ⅰ,23 cases in stage Ⅱ,14 cases in stage Ⅲ and 4 cases in stage Ⅳ.The pathological differentiation was 3 cases of grade Ⅰ,1 case of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ,35 cases of grade Ⅱ,10 cases of grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ,18 cases of grade Ⅲ,3 cases of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ and 5 cases of grade Ⅳ.The expression of CMTM3 and CMTM5 proteins in 75 cases of ccRCC and corresponding adjacent normal kidney tissues was detected by tissue microarray and immunohistochemistry.Results The positive expression rate of CMTM3 and CMTM5 was 98.7％,97.3％ in the adjacent normal kidney tissues,and 44.0％,68.0％ in ccRCC tissues(P ＜ 0.05).The expression of CMTM3 and CMTM5 had no correlation with the gender,age,clinical staging and pathological differentiation(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion CMTM3 and CMTM5 could be ccRCC suppressor genes,and their mutation or methylation might be an early event in the carcinogenesis of ccRCC,thus promise them to be potential biomarkers in early diagnosis.
