摘要
目的:研究融合基因TMPRSS2:ERG和前列腺癌病理分级的关系。方法:选取前列腺癌的穿刺标本62例为病例组,同时选择10例良性前列腺增生(BPH)患者为对照组,同时纳入9株前列腺癌细胞株作为对照,采用巢式RT-PCR检测融合基因TMPRSS2:ERG,比较融合基因阳性和阴性患者Gleason评分的差异,Logistic回归法分析TMPRSS2:ERG和前列腺癌病理特征的关系。结果:62例前列腺癌患者中有28例检测出TMPRSS2:ERG融合基因,阳性率为45.16%;10例BPH和9株癌细胞株中均未检测出该融合基因。融合基因TMPRSS2:ERG阳性和阴性患者Gleason评分无显著差异(Z=-0.609,P=0.542),但融合基因阳性患者Gleason主评分显著高于阴性患者(Z=-2.600,P=0.009)。单因素Logistic回归分析显示,筛状结构、泡沫状腺体和印戒癌细胞分别与融合基因TMPRSS2:ERG有关联(OR=6.25,P=0.002;OR=6.666,P=0.023;OR=3.24,P=0.035);多因素Logistic回归分析显示,该融合基因和筛状结构有关(OR=3.750,P=0.033)。结论:TMPRSS2:ERG融合基因和前列腺癌中到高级的病理分级有关。
Objective:To study the relationship between TMPRSS2:ERG gene fusion and the pathological grade of prostate cancer(PCa).Methods:We collected fresh prostatic tissue samples from 62 patients with PCa and another 10 with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)and included 9 cancer cell strains as the control.We examined the TMPRSS2:ERG fusion gene in the PCa samples by nest RT-PCR,compared the Gleason scores between the TMPRSS2:ERG-positive and-negative cases,and analyzed the association of TMPRSS2:ERG fusion with the pathological features of PCa.Results:The TMPRSS2:ERG fusion gene was detected in 28(45.16%)of the PCa cases,but in none of the 10 BPH cases or the 9 cancer cell strains.No statistically significant differences were found in the Gleason scores between the TMPRSS2:ERG-positive and-negative cases(Z =-0.609,P = 0.542),but the primary Gleason score was markedly higher in the former than in the latter(Z =-2.600,P = 0.009).Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that TMPRSS2:ERG was associated with the cribriform growth pattern(OR = 6.250,P = 0.002),foamy gland morphology(OR = 6.666,P = 0.023),and signet-ring cells(OR = 3.240,P = 0.035),but multivariate logistic regression analysis manifested that it was associated with the cribriform growth pattern only(OR = 3.750,P = 0.033).Conclusion:TMPRSS2:ERG gene fusion was associated with higher pathological grades of prostate cancer.
