Expression and Prognostic Value of Glucose Transporter 3 in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Several reports have suggested that glucose transporter 3 (GLUT-3) promotes tumor metastasis. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the expression level of GLUT-3 and the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

Methods

The GLUT-3 expression levels in 91 DLBCL patients were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The relationships between GLUT-3 expression level and clinicopathological characteristics and progression-free survival (PFS) of DLBCL patients were analyzed. The use of validation cohorts confirmed the predictive value of GLUT-3 expression. The correlation between GLUT-3 and immune cell infiltration was investigated using the Cell-type Identification By Estimating Relative Subsets Of RNA Transcripts system and the analysis of the infiltrating score was obtained by single sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis.

Results

Expression of GLUT-3, which is highly expressed in DLBCL patients, was significantly associated with elevated serum LDH level, recurrence and Ki-67 status. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that high GLUT-3 expression levels in DLBCL were related to poor PFS. Univariate and multivariate analyses results showed that low GLUT-3 expression level was significantly but independently associated with favorable PFS in DLBCL patients. GLUT-3 expression was also correlated with immune cell infiltration and the analysis of the infiltrating score.

Conclusion

Our results indicate that GLUT-3 may act as a potential independent prognostic factor in DLBCL patients. The difference of the immune microenvironment in DLBCL patients may be predicted by the expression level of GLUT-3.

Project description:Objectives: Previous studies have reported the prognostic value of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII). However, the prognostic performance of these indices in patients with testicular lymphoma has not yet been studied. This study was to systematically evaluate the role of NLR, PLR, LMR, and SII in predicting survival for patients with testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Methods: In this study, 28 patients with testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma were enrolled. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses to assess associations of indices incorporating blood cell counts with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: The results of univariate analysis revealed that International Prognostic Index (IPI) score (p = 0.010, p = 0.034, respectively), NLR (p = 0.003, p = 0.025, respectively), and LMR (p = 0.004, p = 0.010, respectively) were significantly associated with PFS and OS. Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) (p = 0.017), absolute neutrophil counts (p = 0.018), absolute monocyte counts (p = 0.001), and SII (p = 0.005) were significantly associated with the risk of disease progression, while ECOG performance status (p = 0.016) was shown to be related to the risk of death. In the multivariate analysis, NLR (HR 9.069, p = 0.001) and absolute monocyte counts (HR 37.076, p = 0.001) were shown to be independently associated with risk for disease progression, while LMR (HR 0.077, p = 0.028), and ECOG performance status (HR 20.013, p = 0.026) were proved to be independent predictors of OS. Conclusions: In conclusion, high absolute monocyte counts, high NLR and low LMR may indicate unfavorable prognosis in testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients. Since indices incorporating blood cell counts are low cost parameters, they may provide additional prognostic value beyond standard clinicopathological parameters. However, further studies are needed to confirm our findings.
