Abstract:
Objective To analyze the correlation between the expression of phosphoinositide-3 kinase,catalytic subunit beta (PIK3CB) and the clinicopathologic characteristics in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues.Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to determine PIK3CB expression in human gastric adenocarcinoma tissues and matched adjacent tissues.The correlation between PIK3CB expression and the patients' clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis was statistically analyzed.Results PIK3CB is highly expressed in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues (positive rate 63.8%) compared with matched adjacent tissues (positive rate 45.7%) (x2 =9.139,P =0.003).PIK3CB expression is significantly correlated with tumor size (x2 =8.677,P =0.003),infiltration (x2 =9.306,P =0.025),and clinical stage (x2 =8.242,P =0.041) ; Level of PIK3CB expression has a significant impact on prognosis (x2 =25.644,P =0.000).Multivariate analyses showed that high PIK3CB expression is an independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival (HR =15.785,95% CI:1.943-7.805,P =0.000).Conclusions Upregulated PIK3CB is correlated with poor postoperative prognosis of gastric carcinoma.
