Objective:To detect the status of PIK3CA in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) , and to analyze the relationships between PIK3CA mutation and clinical features and its impact on prognosis.Methods:From January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2018, 50 patients with primary TNBC admitted to Xinxiang Central Hospital of Henan Province were collected. The PIK3CA mutation status was detected, and the relationships between PIK3CA mutation and clinical characteristics of patients with TNBC and its impact on prognosis were analyzed.Results:PIK3CA gene mutation was detected in 9 of 50 TNBC patients, with a mutation frequency of 18.0%. H1047R mutation was found in 4 cases, E545K mutation in 3 cases and E542K mutation in 2 cases. PIK3CA gene mutation was not associated with age ( χ2=3.55, P=0.060) , tumor location ( χ2=1.01, P=0.315) , tumor size ( χ2<0.01, P>0.999) , lymph node status ( χ2=0.76, P=0.385) , clinical stage ( χ2=0.65, P=0.420) , Ki-67 value ( χ2<0.01, P>0.999) , P53 status ( χ2=0.02, P=0.894) and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) status ( χ2=1.65, P=0.200) . Prognostic analysis showed that 3-year disease-free survival rates of wild-type PIK3CA patients was significantly higher than that of mutant PIK3CA patients (80.5% vs. 11.1%, χ2=28.23, P<0.001) . Conclusion:The frequency of PIK3CA gene mutation is higher in TNBC patients. There is no correlation between PIK3CA mutation and clinicopathologic features in TNBC patients. PIK3CA gene mutation may be significantly associated with poor prognosis of TNBC patients.

【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effect of 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 on the regulation of bone metabolism in a high⁃glucose
environment and to provide evidence for the possible regulatory mechanism of 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 on osteoblasts in a high⁃glu⁃
cose environment.
Methods:
The osteoblast cell line MC3T3⁃E1 was cultured in 3 groups: ① control group, cultured
in low⁃glucose (5.5 mmol/L) DMEM; ② high⁃glucose group: cultured in high⁃glucose (22 mmol/L) DMEM; ③ high⁃glu⁃
cose +1,25(OH) 2 D 3 group: high⁃glucose DMEM + 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 medium culture. The CCK⁃8 method was used to detect cell proliferation in each group; Annexin V and FITC apoptosis kits were used to detect apoptosis; Alizarin red was used
to semiquantitatively analyze cell differentiation; qRT⁃PCR was used to detect forkhead transcription factor⁃1 (forkhead
transcription factor 1, FoxO1) mRNA expression. Immunofluorescence was used to observe the changes in FoxO1 pro⁃
tein expression and its relative position in the nucleus.
Results:
ence was used to observe the changes in FoxO1 pro⁃
tein expression and its relative position in the nucleus. Results Our analysis showed that compared with those in the
control group, the osteoblast apoptosis and proliferation in the high⁃glucose group were improved, while differentiation
was inhibited (P < 0.05); at the same time, the mRNA expression of FoxO1(P = 0.006) was reduced. The immunofluores⁃
cence results showed that more FoxO1 was inside the nucleus (P < 0.001). Compared with those in the high⁃glucose
group, excessive proliferation was inhibited, apoptosis was reduced, and osteogenic differentiation was improved in the
high⁃glucose +1,25(OH) 2 D 3 group (P < 0.05); furthermore, FoxO1 mRNA was decreased (P = 0.006), and the transfer of
FoxO1 protein was blocked (P < 0.001).
Conclusion
re, FoxO1 mRNA was decreased (P = 0.006), and the transfer of
FoxO1 protein was blocked (P < 0.001). Conclusion We found that 1,25(OH) 2 D 3 may prevent the transfer of FoxO1 to
the cell nucleus, inhibit the abnormal proliferation and apoptosis of osteoblasts in a high⁃glucose environment, and re⁃
verse the inhibitory effect of high glucose on the differentiation of osteoblasts.
