Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of MTSS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissue and its relationship with the prognosis of patients.Methods The specimens of bile duct of 49 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who received surgical excision at the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital from January 2003 to December 2005 were collected.Tissue microarrays of the 49 samples of hilar cholangiocarcinomas and the 10samples of adjancent normal bile duct epithelial tissue were constructed.The expression of MTSS1 was detected by the immunohistochemical staining.The pcDNA3.1-MTSS1 was transferred into the RBE cells and the abilities of proliferation of REB cells were measured by MTT assay.The patients were followed up via out-patient examination and telephone till May 2012.The measurement data were analyzed using the t test,and the count data were analyzed using the chi-square test,the survival curve was drawn by the Kaplan-Meier method,the survival was analyzed using the Log-rank test,and multivariate analysis was done using the COX regression model.Results The results of immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression rate of MTSS1 was 10/10 in the adjacent normal epithelial tissue of bile duct,while 59.2% (29/49) in the cholangiocarcinoma tissues.The proliferative rate of cholangiocarcinoma cells transfected with MTSS1 was 1.55 ±0.05,which was significantly lower than 2.32 ±0.08 of cholangiocarcinoma cells without transfection of MTSS1 (t =4.454,P < 0.05).Gender,age,TNM stage,T stage,differentiation,neural invasion and diameter of tumor did not influence the expression of MTSS1 (x2=0.211,3.471,0.507,0.507,0.368,0.882,0.660,P < 0.05),while lymph node metastasis influenced the expression of MTSS1 (x2=10.436,P < 0.05).All the patients were followed up for 1-59 months,and the median time for follow-up was 16 months.The median tumor-free survival time was 17.9 months in patients with positive expression of MTSSI,and 11.3 months of patients with negative expression of MTSS1,with no significant difference (Log-rank value =3.707,P > 0.05).The median survival time was 34.9 months in patients with positive expression of MTSS1,which was significantly longer than 18.7 months of patients with negative expression of MTSS1 (Log-rank value =5.671,P <0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that MTSS1 was not the independent risk factor influencing the prognosis of patients (x2 =0.406,P > 0.05).Conclusions The expression of MTSS1 is decreased in cholangiocarcinoma tissue,which negatively correlates with lymph node metastasis.MTSS1 could be used as a biomarker in predicting the prognosis of patients with cholangiocarcinoma.
