The significant prognostic value of ZEB1-AS1 up-regulation in patients with cancer.

ABSTRACT: Zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 antisense 1 (ZEB1-AS1) is a long non-coding RNA, which has found to unregulated in various kinds of cancer. This meta-analysis was conducted to demonstrate the association between ZEB1-AS1 expression levels and clinical outcome or prognosis of cancer patients.10 studies with 783 cancer patients were included in this meta-analysis by retrieving 5 databases (PubMed Central, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Wiley Online Library and Medline).The result showed that overexpression of ZEB1-AS1 is significantly correlated with poor OS (Hazard ratio, HR=2.45, 95% confidence interval, CI: 1.89-3.16). ZEB1-AS1 expression levels were also associated with clinicopathological parameters including lymph node metastasis (Yes vs. No; OR=4.00, 95%CI: 2.23-7.17, P<0.00001), histologic differentiation (Moderate + poor vs. Well; OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.69-4.37, p<0.0001), tumor metastasis and invasion (Yes vs. No; OR =2.52, 95%CI: 1.12-5.68, P=0.03) and TNM stage (III+IV vs. I+II; OR=2.76, 95 %CI 1.46-5.21, P=0.002). However, ZEB1-AS1 expression was not significantly associated with patients' gender (Male vs. Female; OR=1.20, 95% CI: 0.87-1.66; P=0.27).This meta-analysis indicated the potential value of ZEB1-AS1 as a biomarker for predicting a poor prognosis in patients with cancer.

Project description:BackgroundZinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) is a molecule involved in the progression of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in various kinds of cancers. Here, we aimed to determine whether the expression of the ZEB1 protein is related to the response of patients to neoadjuvant therapy as well as their survival outcome.MethodsImmunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed on paraffin-embedded tumor samples from core needle biopsy before neoadjuvant therapy (NAT). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the associations between the protein expression of ZEB1 and the pathological complete response (pCR) outcome. Kaplan-Meier plots and log-rank tests were used to compare disease-free survival (DFS) between groups. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to calculate the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) with a 95% confidential interval (95% CI).ResultsA total of 75 patients were included in the IHC test. High ZEB1 protein expression was associated with a low pCR rate in both univariate (OR = 0.260, 95% CI 0.082-0.829, p = 0.023) and multivariate (OR = 0.074, 95% CI 0.011-0.475, p = 0.006) logistic regression analyses. High ZEB1 protein expression was also associated with a short DFS according to both the log-rank test (p = 0.023) and Cox proportional hazard model (HR = 9.025, 95% CI 1.024-79.519, p = 0.048). In hormone receptor positive (HorR-positive) patients, high ZEB1 protein expression was also associated with a lower pCR (OR = 0.054, 95% CI 0.007-0.422, p = 0.005) and a poorer DFS (HR = 10.516, 95% CI 1.171-94.435, p = 0.036) compared with low ZEB1 protein expression. In HER2-overexpressing patients, ZEB1 protein expression was also associated with poor survival (p = 0.042).ConclusionsOur results showed that high ZEB1 protein expression was a negative predictive marker of pCR and DFS in neoadjuvant therapy in breast cancer patients and in HorR-positive and HER2-overexpressing subgroups.Trial registration NCT, NCT02199418.
