Abstract:
Objective To investigate expression level of sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their relationships with invasion, metastasis and prognosis of NSCLC. Meth-ods Ninety-three NSCLC specimens and paraneoplastic normal lung tissue from conventional surgery were confirmed by histology. Expression of SPHK1 and NF-κB were detected by Immunohistochemistry on paraffin sections. Primary antibody were Rabbit Anti-Human SPHK1 and Rabbit Anti-Human NF-κB p65, which were incubated 1 hour in water bath. The secondary antibody was HRP-Polymer anti Mouse IgG, which was incubated 20 minutes in water bath. Results SPHK1 ex-pression was positive in 96.8% (90/93) of NSCLC specimen which is higher than in paraneoplastic normal lung tissue in which the positive rate is 18.3%(17/93);NF-κB expression was positive in 89.2%(83/93) NSCLC which is higher than the in paraneoplastic normal lung tissue in which the positive rate is 12.9%(12/93). The expression of SPHK1 and NF-κB in NSCLC was positively correlated (r=0.464, P＜0.01). TThe expression levels of SPHK1 and NF-κB p65 in NSCLC patients with were positively related to TNM staging and lymph node metastasis. SPHK1 expression and NF-κB p65 expression lev-el were higher in the deads than in survivals. There was no statistical significance in different expression intensity of SPHK 1 and NF-κB p65 in patients with NSCLC who had differences in gender, age, tumor size, tumor location, histological type. Survival analysis showed that survival time of patients of NSCLC with high expression of SPHK1 was shorter than those in the group with low SPHK1 expression, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=14.025, P ＜ 0.01). Conclusion In the process of NSCLC invasion and metastasis,SPHK1 may play an important role through NF-κB, and it can predict prognosis of NSCLC patient. Moreover, it will become a potential target for NSCLC target.
