Objective:To explore the analysis of staging alteration and prognosis of 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging update for breast cancer with different molecular subtypes.Methods:The clinical data of 965 breast cancer patients treated in Xijing Hospital from January 2011 to December 2017 were retrospectively collected, and 103 patients met the inclusion criteria. The staging results between all the patients and patients with 4 different molecular subtypes were compared according to the 7th and 8th edition of the AJCC. Fisher's exact test was used for staging differences, Kaplan-Meier was used for survival analysis, log-rank test was used to compare survival rates of different groups, the prognostic judgement efficacy and staging alteration for all patients and cases with different molecular subtypes in the 8th edition was also compared.Results:Compared with the 7th edition, a total of 52 cases (50.5%) had staging declined and 8 cases (7.8%) had staging risen in the 8th edition, and there was a statistically significant difference in composition change ( P < 0.05). There was no rise in staging for Luminal subtype patients, but the decline in 34 cases, with the decline rate of 87.2% (34/39); no rise in staging for patients of HER2 + subtype, but the decline in4 cases, with the decline rate of 19.0% (4/21). No rise in staging for triple positive subtype patients, but the decline in 14 cases, with the decline rate of 82.4% (14/17). Oppositely, for the patients with previous subtypes, no decline in staging of patients with triple negative subtypes, but the rise in 8 cases with the rise rate of 30.8% (8/26). The difference in all the above staging changes was statistically significant ( P = 0.001). According to the 7th edition of the AJCC, the disease-free survival (DFS) time of all the cases and Luminal subtype patients had no statistical differences among different staging groups ( P > 0.05), but according to the 8th edition of the AJCC, the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). DFS time was shorten with the increase of staging, indicating that the 8th edition of staging could more accurately assess the prognosis of patients. Conclusions:Compared with the 7th edition of the AJCC, for the staging changes determined by the 8th edition of the AJCC, the proportion of staging declined in all the cases is significantly higher than that of staging risen, and patients with different molecular subtypes has different staging changes, among which the patients with the triple negative subtypes have staging risen and the rest have staging declined. The DFS analysis for all the patients and patients with Luminal subtypes indicates that the 8th edition of the AJCC staging is a more accurate predictor of prognosis compared with the 7th edition of the AJCC.

Objective To understand the driver gene mutation status in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Xi'an City, and to analyze the association with environmental exposure factors. Methods A total of 305 NSCLC patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023 were included. The driver gene mutation status was observed, and the relationship with environmental exposure factors was analyzed. Results The driver gene mutation rate of 305 patients was 46.89%, with EGFR gene mutation accounting for the highest proportion, and 4 cases of gene co-mutations were detected. There was a difference in gender among patients with different single drive gene mutations (P<0.05), and the proportion of EGFR in women was significantly higher (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were statistical differences in family history, smoking history, long-term cooking history, and fried smoked food intake between patients with driver gene mutation and patients without driver gene mutation (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis suggested that long-term cooking history (OR=2.392), and fried smoked food intake (OR=2.849) were the environmental exposure factors affecting EGFR gene mutation (P<0.05), and smoking history (OR=1.377) was an environmental exposure factor of KRAS gene mutation (P<0.05). Conclusion EGFR gene mutation accounts for the highest proportion of NSCLC patients in Xi'an City, and is mainly female. Long-term cooking history, and fried smoked food intake are related to EGFR gene mutation. There is a certain association between smoking history and KRAS gene mutation.

Metastasis is crucial for the mortality of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in regulating tumor metastasis. Glioma-associated oncogene 1 (Gli1) is aberrantly active in a series of tumor tissues. However, the molecular regulatory relationships between Gli1 and NSCLC metastasis have not yet been identified. Herein, we reported Gli1 promoted NSCLC metastasis. High Gli1 expression was associated with poor survival of NSCLC patients. Ectopic expression of Gli1 in low metastatic A549 and NCI-H460 cells enhanced their migration, invasion abilities and facilitated EMT process, whereas knock-down of Gli1 in high metastatic NCI-H1299 and NCI-H1703 cells showed an opposite effect. Notably, Gli1 overexpression accelerated the lung and liver metastasis of NSCLC in the intravenously injected metastasis model. Further research showed that Gli1 positively regulated Snail expression by binding to its promoter and enhancing its protein stability, thereby facilitating the migration, invasion and EMT of NSCLC. In addition, administration of GANT-61, a Gli1 inhibitor, obviously suppressed the metastasis of NSCLC. Collectively, our study reveals that Gli1 is a critical regulator for NSCLC metastasis and suggests that targeting Gli1 is a prospective therapy strategy for metastatic NSCLC.
