ABSTRACT
This study aimed to explore the prognostic value of SATB1, SMAD3, and TLR2 expression in non-small-cell lung carcinoma patients with clinical stages I-II. To investigate, we evaluated immunohistochemical staining to each of these markers using tissue sections from 69 patients from our cohort and gene expression data for The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort. We found that, in our cohort, high expression levels of nuclear SATB1n and SMAD3 were independent prognostic markers for better overall survival (OS) in NSCLC patients. Interestingly, expression of cytoplasmic SATB1c exhibited a significant but inverse association with survival rate, and it was an independent predictor of unfavorable prognosis. Likewise, TLR2 was a negative outcome biomarker for NSCLC even when adjusting for covariates. Importantly, stratification of NSCLCs with respect to combined expression of the three biomarkers allowed us to identify subgroups of patients with the greatest difference in duration of survival. Specifically, expression profile of SATB1n-high/SMAD3high/TLR2low was associated with the best OS, and it was superior to each single protein alone in predicting patient prognosis. Furthermore, based on the TCGA dataset, we found that overexpression of SATB1 mRNA was significantly associated with better OS, whereas high mRNA levels of SMAD3 and TLR2 with poor OS. In conclusion, the present study identified a set of proteins that may play a significant role in predicting prognosis of NSCLC patients with clinical stages I-II.
