摘要
目的:研究细胞分裂周期蛋白6(cell division cycle 6,CDC6)在乳腺癌组织中的表达与人类表皮生长因子受体2(HER2/neu)基因扩增、临床病理学特征及预后的相关性。方法:收集2013-01-01-2013-03-31天津医科大学肿瘤医院乳腺病理研究室进行HER2/neu FISH检测的原发性乳腺癌蜡块标本120例和2005-01-01-2005-04-30有临床随访资料的乳腺癌标本195例,并选取同期30例乳腺小叶增生病例作为良性对照。采用免疫组织化学染色法(IHC)检测癌组织中CDC6的表达情况并分析其与HER2/neu基因扩增和临床病理学特征及术后随访资料的相关性。结果:120例IDC-NOS标本中,CDC6阴性表达25例(20.8%),阳性表达95例(79.2%);CDC6阴性表达组HER2/neu基因扩增12例(48.0%),CDC6阳性表达组HER2/neu基因扩增74例(77.9%)。CDC6表达与HER2/neu基因扩增呈明显正相关,r=0.242,P=0.008。乳腺癌组织中CDC6阳性表达率为77.4%(151/195),明显高于乳腺小叶增生组织的60.0%(18/30),差异有统计学意义,z=-2.052,P=0.040。CDC6表达与肿瘤大小(P=0.025)、组织学分级(P=0.021)、pTNM分期(P=0.023)、HER2/neu表达水平(P=0.022)和Ki-67表达水平(P=0.003)均呈正相关。CDC6的表达与乳腺癌患者的累计无病生存(cumulative disease-free survival,DFS)时间呈负相关,P=0.020。结论:CDC6是与HER2/neu基因扩增和蛋白表达正相关的蛋白,其表达与乳腺癌细胞增殖有关,并且提示预后不良,有望成为乳腺癌治疗的新靶点。
OBJECTIVE:To determine the expression of cell division cycle 6(CDC6) in breast cancer(BC) and inves- tigate its relationship to HER-2/neu gene amplification and clinical significance. METHODS: Totally 315 primary BC cases diagnosed in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were selected in this study,including 120 cases with HER-2/neu FISH results from January 1 to March 31 of 2013 and 195 cases with long-term follow-up(30 lobular hyperplasia cases during the same time were selected as control group) from January 1 to April 30 of 2005. The expressions of CDC6 were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC). We analyzed relationship of CDC6 expression to HER-2/neu gene amplification and its effect on c!inicopathological characteristics and prognosis for BC patients. RESULTS: In 120 IDC NOS cases,25 cases(20. 8%) had CDC6 negative expression and 95 cases(79. 2%) had CDC6 positive expression; In CDC6 negative and positive groups,12 cases(48.0%) and 74 cases(77.9%) had HER2/neu gene amplification. CDC6 was positively correlated with HER2/neu gene amplification (rs= 0. 242, P=0. 008). Among 22.6% (44/195) and 77. 4% (152/195) of cases,CDC6 had negative and positive expressions respectively. The rate of positive expression of CDC6 in BC cases was significantly higher than that in Lobular hyperplasia cases(60.0%, P=0. 040). CDC6 expression was found to be associated with unfavorable features of BC patients, including tumor size(P = 0. 025), histological grade(P = 0. 021), pTNM stage (P=0. 023), HER2/neu expression (P=0. 022) and Ki-67 expression (P=0. 003). The expression of CDC6 was negatively correlated with disease-free survival (DFS) time (P=0. 020). CONCLUSIONS: CDC6 is a protein associated with HER2/neu amplification and expression,its expression is related to cell proliferation and poor prognosis in BC patients. Therefore CDC6 is expected to become a new target for breast cancer therapy.
