摘要: 目的 初步探索神经纤毛蛋白-1(NRP-1)在表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)阳性肺腺癌中的表达及临床意义。方法 筛选我院经手术切除并行病理学及基因检测确诊为肺腺癌EGFR阳性的54例及阴性的28例石蜡包埋标本,应用免疫组织化学法检测NRP-1、血管内皮生长因子受体2(VEGFR2)的表达,比较分析各临床指标与NRP-1、VEGFR2的相关性。结果 NRP-1、VEGFR2在EGFR阳性肺腺癌组织的阳性表达率均明显高于EGFR阴性肺腺癌组织(P<0.05)。NRP-1、VEGFR2在EGFR阳性肺腺癌组织中的表达与肿瘤直径、TNM分期、肿瘤组织分化程度和淋巴结转移有关(P<0.05),与患者年龄和性别无关(P>0.05)。Kaplan-Meier生存曲线显示EGFR阳性肺腺癌患者中NRP-1和VEGFR2低表达组的无进展生存时间(PFS)明显长于高表达组(P<0.05)。NRP-1和VEGFR2的表达呈正相关。COX多因素分析显示NRP-1与VEGFR2均是EGFR阳性肺腺癌患者不良预后的独立危险因素(P<0.05)。结论 NRP-1在EGFR阳性肺腺癌组织中高表达,NRP-1有可能成为EGFR阳性肺腺癌靶向治疗的新靶点。

Abstract: Objective To explore the expression and clinical significance of neuropilin-1 (NRP-1) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-positive lung adenocarcinoma. Methods Fifty cases with positive EGFR mutation and 28 cases with negative EGFR mutation were screened. The expression of NRP-1 and VEGFR2 was detected by immunohistochemistry. The correlation between clinical parameters and NRP-1 and VEGFR2 was analyzed. Results The positive expression rates of NRP-1 and VEGFR2 in EGFR mutant positive lung adenocarcinoma were significantly higher than those in EGFR mutant negative lung adenocarcinoma (P<0.05). The expression of NRP-1 and VEGFR2 in EGFR-positive lung adenocarcinoma was correlated with the size of tumors, TNM stage, differentiation degree of tumors and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05), but not with age and sex (P>0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that progression-free survival (PFS) in low-expression group of NRP-1 and VEGFR2 was significantly longer than that in high-expression group (P < 0.05). The expression of NRP-1 and VEGFR2 was positively correlated. COX multivariate analysis showed that both NRP-1 and VEGFR2 were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of EGFR-positive lung adenocarcinoma patients (P<0.05). Conclusions NRP-1 is highly expressed in EGFR-positive lung adenocarcinoma tissues. NRP-1 plays an important role in the occurrence, development and metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma. NRP-1 may be a new target for targeted therapy of EGFR-positive lung adenocarcinoma. -
