Cell death mainly occurs in two alternative modes: apoptosis or necrosis. Apoptosis is a form of pro- grammed cell death with typical morphological features, including cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation, and DNA fragmentation (Degterev and Yuan, 2008). The dying cell is eventually fragmented into membrane-bound apoptotic bodies that are engulfed by surrounding phagocytes.展开更多

文摘目的检测PP1A与GSDME在结直肠癌组织中的表达与CD8^(+)T淋巴细胞丰度,探讨PP1A与GSDME介导焦亡的相关性和临床意义。方法应用GEPIA数据库分析PP1A与GSDME在结直肠癌组织与正常组织中mRNA的表达。采用Western blot法检测结直肠癌组织与对应癌旁正常黏膜中PP1A蛋白表达水平,运用免疫组化法检测107例结直肠癌与癌旁正常黏膜中PP1A、GSDME蛋白的表达和CD8^(+)T淋巴细胞丰度。利用Spearman等级相关性分析PP1A、GSDME和CD8^(+)T淋巴细胞丰度的相关性。结果GEPIA数据库检索显示,PP1A与GSDME的mRNA在结直肠癌组织和正常组织中的表达差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。Western blot法检测结果显示,结直肠癌组织中PP1A相对表达量明显高于癌旁组织(0.937 vs 0.643,P<0.001)。免疫组化结果显示,结直肠癌组织中PP1A的表达明显高于正常黏膜,而GSDME的表达明显低于正常黏膜(P<0.05),GSDME表达与结直肠癌患者年龄、临床分期和错配修复蛋白密切相关(P<0.05);CD8^(+)T细胞在癌浸润前沿的分布明显高于癌旁正常黏膜,且CD8^(+)T细胞在癌组织中的分布与pT分期、临床分期及淋巴结转移相关。Spearman相关性分析显示,PP1A与GSDME表达呈负相关(r=-0.196,P<0.05)。PP1A阳性结直肠癌患者的总生存期低于PP1A阴性患者(P<0.05),患者预后与分化程度、淋巴结转移、pT分期和临床分期相关。PP1A表达、肿瘤分化程度、临床分期、pT分期和淋巴结转移均是影响结直肠癌患者预后的独立危险因素。结论PP1A在结直肠癌中高表达,与GSDME介导的细胞焦亡呈负相关,两者表达差异性与结直肠癌的发生、发展及预后均密切相关,可作为判断结直肠癌患者预后的潜在指标,CD8^(+)T细胞的差异性分布可能与GSDME介导的细胞焦亡及肿瘤的发展相关。
