文摘目的 阐明垂体瘤转化基因(PTTG1)与肾透明细胞癌(KIRC)预后及肿瘤免疫细胞浸润的关系。方法 用TCGA数据库获取KIRC样本的相关数据;分析PTTG1在KIRC中的表达水平及临床分期和预后的相关性;用qPCR检测KIRC细胞和肾小管上皮细胞中PTTG1的表达水平;在The Human Protein Atlas数据库中分析PTTG1的蛋白表达水平;分析PTTG1基因和肿瘤免疫浸润的关系;用GSEA进行通路富集分析。结果 KIRC组织中PTTG1 mRNA的转录水平较正常组织显著升高(P<0.01),具有较高的诊断价值。PTTG1与TNM分期和病理分期均存在相关性。PTTG1高表达组的患者总生存期(OS)、疾病特异生存率(DSS)和无进展间隔期(PFS)均显著短于低表达组(P<0.01),PTTG1高表达是影响患者预后的独立危险因素。PTTG1基因表达与Th2、Treg和Th1细胞的浸润程度呈显著正相关(P<0.01)。GSEA结果证实PTTG1主要参与细胞周期及免疫相关的信号通路。结论 PTTG1有望成为KIRC潜在的诊断和预后生物标志物及免疫治疗靶点。
