摘要: 目的 分析泛素结合酶E2T(Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2T,UBE2T)在原发性肝癌中的表达及其与肝癌患者临床病理学参数和预后的关系。方法 从癌症基因组图谱(The Cancer Genome Atlas,TCGA)数据库下载正常肝组织和肝癌组织中UBE2T基因mRNA二代测序数据及临床病理资料,分析UBE2T在癌组织和正常组织中的表达差异,阐明UBE2T mRNA表达水平与肝癌患者临床病理学参数的相关关系。采用Kaplan-Meier进行预后分析,利用Cox比列风险回归模型研究与肝癌患者预后相关的因素,并根据基因集富集分析(Gene set enrichment analysis,GSEA)结果预测UBE2T参与肝癌发生、发展的可能调控通路。结果 UBE2T mRNA在肝癌组织中表达明显高于癌旁组织(P<0.01);UBE2T高表达与Grade分级、TNM分期、有无血管侵袭等密切相关(P<0.01),且提示肝癌患者的预后不良;TNM分期、血管侵袭、UBE2T表达水平均是影响肝癌患者预后的独立危险因素。结论 UBE2T的高表达与肝癌患者的临床病理因素及预后显著相关,可以作为潜在的判断肝癌患者预后的标志物和肿瘤治疗的靶标。

Abstract: Objective The objective of this study was to analyze the expression of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2T(UBE2T)in primary liver cancer and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of patients with liver cancer. Methods The second generation sequencing data and clinical pathological data of UBE2T gene mRNA in normal liver tissues and liver cancer tissues were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database.The expression of UBE2T in cancer tissues and normal tissues was analyzed to elucidate the relationship between UBE2T at mRNA level and clinicopathological parameters of patients with liver cancer.Kaplan-Meier was used for prognostic analysis.The Cox proportional hazard regression model was performed for the multivariate analysis of the prognostic factors associated with HCC.Based on the results of gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA),UBE2T was involved in the possible regulating pathways of HCC development. Results The expression of UBE2T at mRNA level in hepatocarcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues(P<0.01).The high expression of UBE2T was closely related to pathological grade,TNM staging,and vascular invasion(P<0.01),suggesting a poor prognosis of patients with liver cancer.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that TNM staging,vascular invasion and UBE2T expression were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with liver cancer. Conclusion The high expression of UBE2T is significantly associated with the clinicopathological factors and prognosis of patients with liver cancer.It can be used as a potential marker for predicting the prognosis of liver cancer patients and a target for tumor therapy.
