Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) and NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC).Methods:Surgical specimens and clinical data were collected from 63 patients with GBC who underwent radical cholecystectomy in the 904th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA from January 2014 to January 2019. In the GBC group, there were 21 males and 42 females, with an average age of 62.5 years. For 30 patients with mild to moderate atypical hyperplasia of gallbladder during the same period were included in the precancerous lesion group, including 9 males and 21 females, with an average age of 62.4 years. Normal gallbladder specimens from 20 patients who underwent surgical resection due to liver trauma or giant hepatic hemangioma were collected and included in the normal group, including 7 males and 13 females, with an average age of 61.9 years. The expressions of GOLPH3, NLRP3, Ki-67 were detected by immunohistochemistry. Log-rank test and Cox regression were adopted to analyze the GOLPH3 and NLRP3 expression and survival prognosis of gallbladder cancer patients.Results:Expression of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 in the tumor group, precancerous lesion group and normal group was decreased separately. In GBC tissues, the level of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 was positively correlated with the Ki-67 expression ( r=0.972 and r=0.969, both P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that high level of GOLPH3 ( HR=4.891, 95% CI: 1.776-13.470) and NLRP3 ( HR=3.006, 95% CI: 1.273-7.099) was an independent risk factor for predicting the postoperative survival of patients with GBC (both P<0.05). Conclusion:GOLPH3 and NLRP3 are highly expressed in GBC tissues, and high expression of GOLPH3 and NLRP3 is an independent risk factor for postoperative survival in patients with GBC.
