Abstract:
Purpose To investigate the expression of protein kinase D1 (PKD1) in endometrial carcinoma and normal endometrium,and to investigate its relationship with the clinicopathological features of endometrial carcinoma.Methods Immunohistochemical SP and qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of PKD1 in 92 cases of endometrial cancer and 48 cases of normal endometrium,and to analyze the relationship of expression of PKD1 with the tumor differentiation and clinical stage of endometrial carcinoma tissue.Western blot method was used to detect the expression level of PKD1 protein in normal endometrial cell line and endometrial carcinorna cell lines with different degree of differentiation.Results mRNA and protein expression of PKD1 in endometrial carcinoma tissues was significantly higher than those in normal endometrial tissues (P ＜ 0.01),which showing a correlation to the degree of tissue differentiation and clinical pathologic staging.While,the expression level of PKD1 protein in endometrial cancer cell lines was also much higher than that in normal endometrial cells (P ＜ 0.01),and the lower differentiation,the higher level of PKD1 protein expression.Conclusion PKD1 is highly expressed in endometrial cancer patients.The level of PKD1 expression may be an important reference for predicting the malignant degree of endometrial cancer.
