Prognostic Value of Fibrinogen and Lymphocyte Count in Intermediate and High Risk Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:Data about the prognostic value of fibrinogen concentration and absolute lymphocyte count for the prognosis of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) were limited. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the predictive value of preoperative fibrinogen concentration and absolute lymphocyte count in GISTs. Patients and Methods:From March 2002 to December 2017, 143 intermediate and high risk GIST patients treated with R0 resection were enrolled in the present study. Clinicopathological characteristics were recorded. The optimal cut-off values of patients were calculated by X-tile software. Categorical variables were analyzed using Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Disease-free survival was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by a Log rank test. Results:There were 71 males (49.65%) and 72 females. The median age was 56 years (range 19-86). The optimal cut-off value was 4.5 g/L for fibrinogen concentration (P=0.000) and 1.0×109/L for lymphocyte count (P=0.002). No significant association was found between lymphocyte level and clinicopathological features. However, elevated fibrinogen level was correlated with tumor location, tumor size and NIH risk category. Tumor size, fibrinogen concentration and lymphocyte count were independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients according to the multivariate analysis. The prognosis of patients with high fibrinogen concentration or low lymphocyte count was significantly worse than that with low fibrinogen concentration or high lymphocyte count. Further, combination of fibrinogen concentration and lymphocyte count could increase the prognostic value for GIST patients. Conclusion:Fibrinogen concentration and absolute lymphocyte count were independent prognostic factors for intermediate and high risk GIST patients. The combination of fibrinogen concentration and absolute lymphocyte count could further increase the predictive value for the prognosis of GIST patients.

Project description:AimsTo explore the expression of circular RNA (circRNA) in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.BackgroundGastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are mainly distributed in the stomach and small intestine. Recently, it has been verified that circular RNA (circRNA) has an important function in the regulation of GIST. Nevertheless, detailed investigations of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory networks in GIST are lacking.ObjectiveTo analyze the gastrointestinal stromal tumor circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network, assessing the effect of circle RNA in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.MethodAll the differential circRNAs and mRNAs were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) microarray data (GSE131481 and GSE147303, GSE131481, and GSE13861). Furthermore, a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was established. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment were used to reveal the correlation between the functions of signaling pathways and target genes. The hub genes of protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and cytoHubba were also defined. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to measure the expression levels of hsa-circ-0002917 (circTBC1D4), hsa-miR-590-5p (miR-590-5p), and PLN.ResultsPPI network and Cytoscape showed that ATP1A2, PLN, KCNMA1, and SCNN1B were four central DEGs. GO analysis results revealed that DEGs were involved in negative management of myocardial contraction, regulation of myocardial cell contraction, ethanol oxidation, cellular potassium ion homeostasis, and relaxation of cardiac muscle, and KEGG analysis showed that major DEGs were with cGMP-PKG signaling pathway. Moreover, we obtained two pairs of axes, namely, hsa-circ-0039216/hsa-miR-338-3p/ATP1A2 and hsa-circ-0002917/hsa-miR-590-5p/PLN. The target of TBC1D4 is miR-590-5p, and miR-590-5p increased after knocking down TBC1D4. Moreover, PLN was the target of miR-590-5p, and miR-590-5p exerts antitumor effects by reducing PLN.ConclusionsIn this study, we constructed a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA management network interrelated with GIST and researched the potential roles of circRNA. Moreover, we discovered a new molecular landmarker for the prediction, diagnosis, and therapy of patients.
