摘要

目的 探索趋化因子CXCL10及其受体CXCR3基因在肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma,HCC)中的表达及其临床意义。方法 通过挖掘癌症基因组图谱(the cancer genome atlas,TCGA)中HCC数据库和国际肝癌研究所(Liver Cancer Institute,LCI)中乙肝相关肝癌数据库,分析CXCL10基因和CXCR3基因在HCC及癌旁组织中的表达以及与患者术后总生存率的关系;采用实时荧光定量PCR(quantitative real-time PCR,qPCR)方法检测45例乙肝相关HCC患者临床样本中CXCL10基因和CXCR3基因的表达情况,并分析CXCL10CXCR3基因表达的相关性。结果 TCGA数据库中CXCL10基因在HCC组织中的表达显著高于癌旁组织(非配对样本:3.379±2.081 vs. 2.213±2.274,P<0.001;配对样本:3.159±2.267 vs. 2.213±2.274,P=0.018),LCI数据库中CXCL10基因在HCC组织中的表达显著高于癌旁组织(7.625±1.683 vs. 7.287±1.328,P=0.009),TCGA和LCI数据库中CXCL10基因高表达HCC患者术后总体生存率高于CXCL10基因低表达患者(P=0.107,P=0.002)。TCGA数据库中CXCR3基因在HCC组织的表达显著高于癌旁组织(非配对样本:-0.906±1.697 vs. -1.978±1.629,P<0.001;配对样本:-1.329±1.732 vs. -1.978±1.629,P=0.037),而LCI数据库中CXCR3基因在乙肝相关HCC组织的表达显著低于癌旁组织(3.989±0.339 vs. 4.074±0.309,P=0.003),但两个数据库中HCC组织CXCR3基因高表达患者的术后总体生存率均显著高于CXCR3基因低表达患者(P=0.004,P=0.014)。TCGA数据库中CXCL10基因与CXCR3基因在HCC和癌旁组织里的表达水平均呈正相关(r=0.584,P<0.001;r=0.776,P<0.001)。临床样本检测结果显示,CXCL10基因在乙肝相关HCC和配对癌旁组织里的表达水平分别为0.479(0.223,1.094)和0.484(0.241,0.846),均显著高于正常肝组织的0.131(0.106,0.159)(P=0.010,P<0.001), CXCR3基因在HCC和配对癌旁组织里的表达水平分别为0.011(0.006,0.019)和0.016(0.011,0.021),也显著高于正常肝组织的0.002(0.001,0.004)(P=0.004,P<0.001), 但CXCL10CXCR3基因在HCC组织中的表达水平与配对癌旁组织相比差异均无统计学意义(P=1.000,P=0.374)。结论 CXCL10在不同病因HCC组织中均呈高表达,CXCR3在乙肝相关HCC组织中呈低表达,HCC组织中CXCL10CXCR3的高表达均利于HCC患者的术后生存。

Abstract

Objective: To explore the expression and clinical significance of chemokine CXCL10 and CXCR3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods: The expression and prognostic of CXCL10 and CXCR3 in HCC tumor tissues and non-tumor tissues were analyzed in two different publicly available databases the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Liver Cancer Institute (LCI). In addition, quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of CXCL10 and CXCR3 in 45 HCC cli-nical samples with HBV infection background. Pearson correlation and Spearman rank correlation were used to determine the correlation between the expression level of CXCL10 and CXCR3 in tumor and non-tumor tissues. Results: In TCGA database, the expression of CXCL10 in HCC tumor tissues was significantly higher than that in non-tumor tissues (nonpaired samples: 3.379±2.081 vs. 2.213±2.274, P<0.001; paired samples: 3.159±2.267 vs. 2.213±2.274, P=0.018). Similarly in LCI datebase (7.625±1.683 vs. 7.287±1.328, P=0.009). And higher CXCL10 expression was significantly associated with a better prognosis in the patients with HCC both in TCGA and LCI database (P=0.107, P=0.002). In TCGA database, the expression of CXCR3 in HCC tumor tissues was significantly higher than that in non-tumor tissues (nonpaired samples: -0.906±1.697 vs. -1.978±1.629, P<0.001; paired samples: -1.329±1.732 vs. -1.978±1.629, P=0.037), while lower in LCI database (3.989±0.339 vs. 4.074±0.309, P=0.003). In both databases, higher CXCR3 expression was significantly associated with a better prognosis in the HCC patients (P=0.004, P=0.014). Furthermore, in TCGA database, the expression level of CXCL10 and CXCR3 was positively correlated both in HCC tumor tissues and matched non-tumor tissues (r=0.584, P<0.001; r=0.776, P<0.001). The qPCR assay showed that the expression of CXCL10 in HBV-related HCC tumor tissues was significantly higher than those in normal liver tissues [0.479(0.223, 1.094) vs. 0.131(0.106, 0.159), P=0.010], and the expression in HBV-related non-tumor tissues was also significantly higher than those in normal liver tissues [0.484(0.241, 0.846) vs. 0.131(0.106, 0.159), P<0.001]. The same was true as CXCR3 [0.011(0.006, 0.019) vs. 0.002(0.001, 0.004), P=0.004; 0.016(0.011, 0.021) vs. 0.002(0.001, 0.004), P<0.001]. However there was no significant difference of CXCL10 and CXCR3 between tumor tissues and matched non-tumor tissues (P=1.000, P=0.374).Conclusion: Expression of CXCL10 was up-regulated in HCC tissues, expression of CXCR3 was down-regulated in HBV-related HCC tissues, and the higher expression of both genes was correlated with better overall survival in HCC patients.
