摘要: 目的: 分析溶质运载蛋白7家族成员11(SLC7A11)在食管癌(ESCA)组织中的表达与功能,及对患者生存预后的影响。方法: 基于Oncomine及GEPIA数据库,检索SLC7A11在ESCA组织与正常食管组织中的表达差异;采用GeneMANIA数据库构建有关SLC7A11的蛋白互作网络(PPI),并进行功能注释分析其共同富集的生物学功能;通过KEGG Pathway数据库分析其参与的信号通路;利用R2基因分析可视化平台,绘制Kaplan-Meier函数曲线,分析SLC7A11的表达对患者生存预后的影响。结果: Oncomine及GEPIA数据分析显示,SLC7A11在ESCA组织中mRNA的表达水平较正常组织显著升高(P < 0.05),且高表达组患者生存预后较差,差异具有统计学意义(P < 0.05);SLC7A11与SLC3A2、BSG、ASNS、PHGDH、TERT、CD44等20种蛋白相互作用,主要富集于氨基酸转运、修饰氨基酸的跨膜转运活性、白细胞游走、多肽抗原绑定等生物学功能;SLC7A11通过P53/ROS信号的活化介导细胞铁死亡信号通路(hsa04216)的调节。结论: SLC7A11在ESCA组织中表达升高,且高表达组患者预后不良;SLC7A11可能通过P53、ROS代谢通路参与细胞铁死亡,有望成为ESCA患者早期诊断、治疗及判断预后的分子靶标。

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression and function of solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) in esophagus cancer (ESCA) and its prognostic value in patients. METHODS: Differences in expression of SLC7A11 in ESCA tissues and normal esophageal tissues were analyzed using the Oncomine and GEPIA databases. GeneMANIA database was used to construct the protein-protein interaction network (PPI) which is related to SLC7A11, and functional annotation was carried out to analyze its common enrichment functions. KEGG Pathway database was used to analyze the signaling pathways involved. Kaplan-Meier curve was drawn using the R2 gene analysis visualization platform to study the association of SLC7A11 expression and overall survival (OS) of ESCA patients. RESULTS: Based on the Oncomine and GEPIA databases,the mRNA expression levels of SLC7A11 in ESCA tissues were significantly higher than that in normal tissues,the prognosis of patients in the high-expression group was worse,and their differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). SLC7A11 interacts with 20 proteins including SLC3A2, BSG, ASNS, PHGDH, TERT and CD44, and they were enriched in amino acid transport, modified amino acid transmembrane transporter activity, leukocyte migration,peptide antigen binding and other biological functions. SLC7A11 was involved in regulation of the ferroptosis (hsa04216) signaling pathway. CONCLUSION: SLC7A11 was up-regulated in ESCA significantly, indicative of poor prognosis, involved in ferroptosis through the P53 and ROS metabolic pathways. Therefore,SLC7A11 can be considered to be biomarkers for early diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of patients with ESCA.
