Abstract:
Objective To explore the expression of Octamers binding transcription factor 4 (Oct4) and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters in the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissues .Methods From September 2013 to December 2016 ,100 cases of NSCLC patients with lung cancer (group NSCLC ,n=100) and their corresponding normal paracancerous tissues (the control group ,n=100) were selected as the samples .The expression of Oct4 mRNA and protein in two groups of tissue samples were detected by fluores-cence quantitative PCR ,immunohistochemistry and western blot .The relationship between the level of Oct4 expression and the clinicopathological parameters of the patients was analyzed ,and the prognosis of the Oct4 positive and negative patients in the NSCLC group was compared .Results The expression of Oct4 mRNA in NSCLC group was (3 .21 ± 0 .18) ,protein expression was (0 .74 ± 0 .11) and the positive rate was 74 .00％ , which were significantly higher than those of control group [(1 .47 ± 0 .11) ,(0 .10 ± 0 .03) ,10 .00％ ,P<0 .05] .The positive rate of Oct4 expression in NSCLC patients was not related to sex ,age ,smoking index and tumor size (P>0 .05) ,but related to pathological type ,degree of differentiation ,and TNM staging ,in which the positive rates of Oct4 in patients with adenocarcinoma ,low differentiation and TNM stage Ⅲ stage were significantly higher than those of non adenocarcinoma ,middle-high differentiation degree ,Ⅰ - Ⅱ TNM stage patients (P< 0 .05) .In NSCLC patients ,compared with Oct4 negative patients ,the distant metastasis rate (64 .86％ ) ,pulse tube infiltration rate (47 .30％ ) in Oct4 positive patients were significantly higher ,and the 1 year survival rate (67 .57％ ) decreased (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The expression of Oct4 in NSCLC tissue is closely related to its clinicopathological parameters .Oct4 is highly expressed in adenocarcinoma ,and with thedecrease of differentiation and progression of tumor stages ,the expression increases and affects the prognosis . Oct4 can be used as a specific diagnostic marker of NSCLC .
