摘要: 目的:探讨跨膜蛋白79(TMEM79)在肝细胞癌(HCC)组织中的表达及其与患者临床病理指标及预后的关系,评估其对Ia-IIa期HCC切除后复发转移及生存情况的预测价值。方法:收集行根治性手术切除的HCC病例95例,采用免疫组织化学方法检测HCC肿瘤组织与配对非肿瘤组织中TMEM79蛋白的表达,分析TMEM79蛋白表达与患者临床病理指标的关系。通过对随访资料的分析,比较不同TMEM79蛋白表达水平患者的生存情况差异,评估TMEM79蛋白对Ia-IIa期HCC术后的影响。结果:TMEM79蛋白在HCC组织中的阳性表达率高于非肿瘤组织(χ2=4.270;P<0.05),TMEM79蛋白在不同分化程度的HCC组织间的表达水平差异具有统计学意义(χ2=8.902;P<0.05);TMEM79阳性与阴性表达组间的总生存期(OS)及无进展生存期(PFS)差异具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。经Cox回归分析,TMEM79蛋白阳性表达是Ia-IIa期HCC术后复发转移的危险因素[HR=2.001,95%CI(1.152,3.476),P<0.05]。HCC团片状型组织学形态[HR=3.090,95%CI(1.317,7.273),P<0.05]及TMEM79蛋白阳性表达[HR=3.323,95%CI(1.652,6.683),P<0.05]是影响Ia-IIa期HCC术后生存的危险因素。结论:TMEM79蛋白在HCC组织中的表达与HCC分化程度相关;TMEM79蛋白阳性表达影响术后患者的预后,可作为Ia-IIa期HCC患者术后复发转移及生存情况的预测因素。

Abstract: OBJECTIVE:To investigate expression of the transmembrane protein 79(TMEM79) in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),and to analyze its correlations with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of the patients. METHODS:From May 2011 to August 2017,clinicopathological data of 95 patients in the Meizhou People--s Hospital with HCC who received radical surgical treatment were collected. Expression levels of TMEM79 were evaluated using immunohistochemistry. Relationships between TMEM79 expressions and clinicopathological factors were analyzed using the χ2 test. Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were performed to analyze the survival time. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze prognostic factors. RESULTS:The expression levels of TMEM79 in HCC was significantly correlated with the differentiation degree of HCC (χ2=8.902;P<0.05). The overall survival times (OS) and the progression-free survival times (PFS) of the negative expression group was significantly prolonged comparing with the positive expression group (P<0.01). Positive expression of TMEM79 was a risk factor for postoperative recurrences and metastases in patients with stage Ⅰa-Ⅱa [HR=2.001,95%CI (1.152,3.476),P<0.05]. Histological morphology with mass form predominantly [HR=3.090,95%CI(1.317,7.273),P<0.05] and the positive expression levels of TMEM79 [HR=3.323,95%CI (1.652,6.683),P<0.05] were independent factors affecting postoperative PFS and OS in HC C patients with stageⅠa-Ⅱa(P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Expression of the TMEM79 protein in HCC tissue was related to the degrees of HCC differentiation. The positive expression levels of TMEM79 were related to poor prognosis. Positive expression levels of TMEM79 protein can possibly be used as a predictive factor for postoperative HCC patients with stage Ⅰa-Ⅱa.
