Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression and prognostic value of uncoupling protein 2(UCP2)and ubiquitin associated protein 2-like(UBAP2L)in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods A total of 94 patients with NSCLC who received surgical treatment in a hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were selected as the study objects.The expressions of UCP2 protein,UBAP2L protein,UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA in cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of NSCLC patients were detected by real-time fluorescence quan-titative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry.The correlation between UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA in NSCLC was analyzed by Pearson correlation.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the differences in survival rates of NSCLC patients with different UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA expres-sions,and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the prognostic factors of NSCLC patients.Results The positive rate of UCP2 protein and UBAP2L protein in cancer tissues of NSCLC patients was higher than that in adjacent tissues,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The expressions of UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA in cancer tissues of NSCLC patients were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissues,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was a positive cor-relation between UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA expression in NSCLC patients(r=0.721,P＜0.001).The expression of UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA in cancer tissues of NSCLC patients was related to TNM stage and lymph node metastasis.There was significant difference in 3-year survival rate between UCP2 mRNA high expression group and UCP2 mRNA low expression group(P＜0.05).There was significant difference in 3-year survival rate between UBAP2L mRNA high expression group and UBAP2L mRNA low expression group(P＜0.05).TNM stage Ⅲ A,lymph node metastasis,UCP2 mRNA high expression and UBAP2L mRNA high expression were risk factors for prognosis of NSCLC patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion UCP2 protein,UBAP2L protein,UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA are up-regulated in NSCLC patients,and UCP2 mRNA and UBAP2L mRNA are helpful to evaluate the survival prognosis of NSCLC patients.
