Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of lectin galactoside binding soluble-3 binding protein(LGALS3BP),GTP enzyme activating protein SH3 functional region binding protein 1(G3BP1)and Wnt/β-catenin pathway genes in endometrial cancer(EC)tissues and its clinical prognostic significance.Methods 138 patients with EC treated in Cangzhou Central Hospital from February 2016 to February 2019 were selected.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of LGALS3BP mRNA,G3BP1 mRNA and Wnt/β-catenin pathway genes Wnt5a mRNA,β-catenin mRNA and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)mRNA in cancer and adjacent tissues.The expression of LGALS3BP protein and G3BP1 protein in cancer and adjacent tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between LGALS3BP mRNA,G3BP1 mRNA and Wnt/β-catenin pathway genes.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the effect of LGALS3BP mRNA and G3BP1 mRNA on the survival and prognosis of EC patients.COX regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of EC patients.Results The expression of LGALS3BP mRNA(3.01±0.34),G3BP1 mRNA(2.87±0.33),Wnt5a mRNA(2.29±0.26),β-catenin mRNA(3.25±0.41)and MMP-9 mRNA(2.68±0.36)in EC cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent tissues(1.10±0.23,1.06±0.24,0.84±0.17,0.88±0.26,0.69±0.17),and the differences were statistically significant(t=52.109～58.719,all P<0.001).The expression of LGALS3BP mRNA and G3BP1 mRNA in EC was positively correlated with the expression of Wnt5a mRNA,β-catenin mRNA and MMP-9 mRNA(r=0.675～0.781,all P<0.001).The expression of LGALS3BP protein(3.54±0.47 vs 0.51±0.16)and G3BP1 protein(2.84±0.44 vs 0.42±0.13)in EC cancer tissues were higher than that in adjacent tissues,and the differences were statistically significant(t=71.692,61.962,all P<0.001).The expression of LGALS3BP mRNA and G3BP1 mRNA in cancer tissues of EC patients with FIGO stage Ⅲ and lymph node metastasis were higher than that of FIGO stage Ⅰ～Ⅱ and no lymph node metastasis,and the differences were statistically significant(t=40.279～557.671,all P<0.001).The 5-year survival rate of LGALS3BP mRNA high expression group was 58.82%(40/68),which was lower than that of low expression group 94.29%(66/70),and the difference was statistically significant(Log-rank χ2=24.970,P<0.001).The 5-year survival rate of G3BP1 mRNA high expression group was 62.12%(41/66),which was lower than that of low expression group 90.28%(65/72),and the difference was statistically significant(Log-rank χ2=15.960,P<0.001).FIGO stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis,high expression of LGALS3BP mRNA and high expression of G3BP1 mRNA were risk factors for poor prognosis of EC patients(Wald χ2=7.847～12.054,all P<0.001).Conclusion The expression of LGALS3BP and G3BP1 mRNA is elevated in EC,both of which are associated with Wnt/β-catenin pathway genes,promoting the malignant progression of EC tumors,and are new tumor markers for evaluating the prognosis of EC patients.
