P53/PCDH17/Beclin-1 Proteins as Prognostic Predictors for Urinary Bladder Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: To determine whether p53, PCDH17, Beclin-1 expression is associated with clinicopathological characteristics of bladder cancer. Materials and Methods: 75 patients with non-muscle-invasive and muscle-invasive bladder cancer were included. Immunohistochemical staining for p53, PCDH17 and Beclin-1 were carried out on the same paraffin-embedded blocks serial sections of these patients who underwent surgery between 2010 and 2015. In addition, p53 gene mutations in these tumors were screened by DNA sequencing. Results: Forty-nine (66.7%) of 75 tumors had p53 gene mutations detected by DNA sequencing method. Of these tumors, 43 (86.0%) exhibited p53 high expression. Furthermore, p53 mutation and low expression of PCDH17 were significantly associated with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Beclin-1 was also strongly associated with T stage. The p53 mutation, the expression of p53 and PCDH17 were significantly associated with survival from bladder cancer. In addition, patients with p53 high-expression or p53 mutation, PCDH17 low-expression and Beclin-1 low-expression significantly had a poor prognosis. Conclusions: Use of a DNA sequencing method to detect p53 gene mutations was consistent with an immunohistochemical method to detect p53 alterations. In conjunction with levels of p53/PCDH17/Beclin-1, p53 and PCDH17 were independently associated with prognosis; Beclin-1 only had a tendency towards overall survival. p53/PCDH17/Beclin-1 phenotype seems to play a more important role than p53 expression in bladder cancer outcome. It is also identified that p53/PCDH17, p53/Beclin-1 or PCDH17/Beclin-1 all have a cooperative and synergistic effect, which may provide us the potential biomarker for bladder cancer patients.

Project description:BackgroundThe objective of this study was to evaluate Octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (Oct-4), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and body mass index (BMI) as independent prognostic biomarkers for prediction of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) outcomes. With the advancement in prognostic biomarker discovery, tumor recurrence is difficult to accurately predict in UBC. UBC is costly to treat due to the requirement of frequent invasive follow-up sessions. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to evaluate good prognostic biomarkers for UBC surveillance.MethodsWe studied 39 UBC tissue samples. Oct-4 protein expression was evaluated semiquantitatively by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Complete blood count data and body weight as well as the height of the patients were retrieved and recorded before the date of the first transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). The follow-up period was 48 months for recurrence-free survival (RFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).ResultsOct-4 expression profile was found to be significantly associated with gender (p = 0.028), tumor grade (p = 0.038), tumor stage (p = 0.003), lymph node status (p = 0.029), recurrence (p = 0.004), progression (p = 0.011), and treatment modality (p = 0.016). Tumor grade and progression were found significant with NLR values (tumor grade, p = 0.006; progression, p = 0.038) and BMI (tumor grade, p = 0.036; progression, p = 0.014). Moreover, BMI was also significantly associated with UBC recurrence (p = 0.014). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed poor prognosis with both high Oct-4 expression (RFS, p = 0.001; PFS, p = 0.004; OS, p = 0.014) and high NLR values (RFS, p = 0.049; PFS, p = 0.004; OS, p = 0.005). Patients with high BMI too had poor RFS (p = 0.025) and poor PFS (p = 0.032). Furthermore, multivariate Cox regression analysis, indicated Oct-4 as an independent prognostic biomarker for RFS (HR = 0.240, 95% CI, 0.072-0.804, p = 0.021).ConclusionsWe conclude that the expression profile of Oct-4 will be beneficial in prediction of UBC recurrence, and could have profound implications on the development of new therapeutic targets for UBC treatment.
