Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expressions and functions of the fusion gene SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 in synovial sarcoma.Methods The synovial sarcoma tissue samples and clinical data of 22 synovial sarcoma patients were collected.The expressions of fusion genes were detected by RT-PCR.The relationships between fusion gene and clinicopathologic factors were statistically analyzed.The abilities of proliferation,migration and invasion of 3T3 cells transfected with tusion gene plasmids were detected by MTT,migration and invasion assays.Results There were 11 cases with expression of SYT-SSX1 gene and 9 cases with that of SYT-SSX2 genes.The ratio of SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 was about 1:1.The SYT-SSX1 positive tumors were most biphasic SS and the tumor volumes of patients with SYT-SSX1 positive were larger than that of patients with SYT-SSX2 positive (P =0.028).The SYT-SSX1 positive NIH3T3 cells exhibited higher abilities of proliferation,migration and invasion than SYT-SSX2 positive.Conclusions The ratio of expression of SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 in synovial sarcoma was about 1∶1.Both SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 can promote the growth and migration in NIH3T3 cell.The abilities of proliferation and migration of SYT-SS1 were more potent than that of SYT-SSX2.
