Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression of N-acetyltransferase 10(NAT10)and polyadenylate bind-ing protein cytoplasmic 1(PABPC1)in non muscle invasive bladder cancer(NMIBC),and analyze the correla-tion between them and epithelial mesenchymal transition(EMT)and prognosis.Methods A total of 122 pa-tients with NMIBC treated in the hospital from May 2019 to May 2021 were selected.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of NAT10 and PABPC1 proteins in NMIBC tissues.Real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR)was used to detect the expression of NAT10,PABPC1 mRNA,and EMT markers in NMIBC tissues.Pearson correlation analysis was conducted on the correlation between EMT indicators[Snail,N-cadherin(N-cad),vimentin(Vim)mRNA].Cox regression analysis was conducted on the relationship between NAT10,PABPC1 and prognosis of NMIBC.Results Compared with adjacent tis-sues,the expression of NAT10 mRNA,PABPC1 mRNA,Snail mRNA,N-cad mRNA,and Vim mRNA in NMIBC cancer tissues was higher,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The expression of NAT10 mRNA,PABPC1 mRNA in NMIBC cancer tissues was positively correlated with Snail mRNA,N-cad mRNA,and Vim mRNA(r=0.678,0.702,0.711,0.754,0.788,0.663,P<0.001).The positive rates of NAT10 and PABPC1 in NMIBC cancer tissues were 59.02%(72/122)and 60.66%(74/122),respectively,while those in adjacent tissues were 6.56%(8/122)and 4.92%(6/122),respectively(x2=76.176,85.995,P<0.001).The positive rates of NAT10 and PABPC1 in NMIBC cancer tissues were higher than those in ad-jacent tissues,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=76.176,85.995,P<0.001).The positivity rates of NAT10 and PABPC1 in cancer tissues of stage T1,high-grade NMIBC patients were higher than those in cancer tissues of Ta/Ti,low-grade patients,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The 3-year overall progression free survival rates of NMIBC patients in the NAT10 positive and negative groups were 48.61%(35/72)and 80.00%(40/50),respectively,with a statistically significant difference(Log rank x2=13.780,P=0.000).The 3-year overall progression free survival rates of PABPC1 positive and negative patients were 47.30%(35/74)and 83.33%(40/48),respectively,with a statistically significant difference(Log rank x2=11.830,P=0.001).T1 stage,high-grade,NAT10 positive,and PABPC1 positive were risk fac-tors affecting the prognosis of NMIBC.Conclusion The expression of NAT10 and PABPC1 in NMIBC cancer tissue is significantly upregulated and positively correlated with EMT markers,which is correlated with poor prognosis of NMIBC.
