Expression of TRIP4 and DDIT4 in Glioma Tissue and Their Relationship with Clinical Pathological Parameters and Prognosis / 现代检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the expression of thyroid hormone receptor binding protein 4(TRIP4)and DNA damage inducing transcription factor 4(DDIT4)in glioma tissue and their relationship with clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis.Methods 94 glioma patients admitted to the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from February 2018 to February 2019 were selected as the research subjects.The expression of TRIP4,DDIT4 proteins in tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.The relationship between the expression of TRIP4,DDIT4 proteins in glioma tissues and clinical pathological characteristics were compared.The differences in survival prognosis of glioma patients with different levels of TRIP4,DDIT4 protein expression were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curve.Univariate and multivariate COX regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors affecting the survival prognosis of glioma patients.Results The positive rates of TRIP4(68.09%),DDIT4(65.96%)proteins in glioma tissues were higher than those in adjacent tissues(13.83%,10.64%),with statistically significant differences(χ2=57.212,60.866,all P<0.05).There was a significant positive correlation between TRIP4 and DDIT4 protein expression in glioma tissues(r=0.722,P<0.05).The positive rates of TRIP4(83.64%vs 46.15%,80.00%vs 51.28%)and DDIT4(80.00%vs 46.15%,76.36%vs 51.28%)proteins in glioma tissues with tumor diameter≥3cm,WHO grade Ⅲ were significantly higher than those in tissues with tumor diameter＜3cm,WHO grade Ⅰ～Ⅱ(χ2=6.393～14.754,P<0.05).The 3-year overall survival rates of the TRIP4 positive and negative expression groups were 37.50%(24/64)and 66.67%(20/30),respectively.The 3-year cumulative survival of the TRIP4 positive expression group was significantly lower than that in the TRIP4 negative expression group(Log-rank χ2=5.949,P=0.015).The 3-year overall survival rate of DDIT4 positive and negative expression group was 37.10%(23/62)and 70.00%(21/30),respectively.The 3-year cumulative survival of the DDIT4 positive expression group was significantly lower than that in the DDIT4 negative expression group(Log-rank χ2=7.642,P=0.006).Tumor diameter≥3cm(HR=1.614,P=0.000),WHO grade Ⅲ(HR=1.790,P=0.000),positive TRIP4(HR=1.665,P=0.000)and positive DDIT4(HR=1.476,P=0.000)were independent risk factors affecting the survival prognosis of glioma patients.Conclusion The expression of TRIP4 and DDIT4 protein in glioma tissue was increased.Both of them were related to tumor diameter and WHO grade,and are potential tumor markers for survival prognosis of glioma.
