To study the expression profile of SLC22A16 in gastric cancer (GC), its prognostic value and the potential mechanisms of its upregulation.
PATIENTS & METHODS: A retrospective study was performed by using data in the Human Protein Atlas and The Cancer Genome Atlas-Stomach Cancer (STAD). Results: SLC22A16 was significantly upregulated in GC tissues compared with normal stomach tissues. SLC22A16 upregulation independently predicted poor overall survival (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.424, 95% CI: 1.169-1.735; p < 0.001) and recurrence-free survival (HR: 1.658, 95% CI: 1.292-2.128; p < 0.001) in early GC and poor overall survival (HR: 1.411, 95% CI: 1.137-1.752; p = 0.002) in advanced GC. SLC22A16 DNA hypomethylation might be a compensation for DNA loss to maintain SLC22A16 elevation in GC.
SLC22A16 might be a valuable prognostic marker in GC.
研究 SLC22A16 在胃癌(GC)中的表达谱、其预后价值及其上调的潜在机制。
本研究采用了人类蛋白质图谱和癌症基因组图谱-胃癌(STAD)的数据进行回顾性研究。结果:与正常胃组织相比,SLC22A16 在 GC 组织中明显上调。SLC22A16 的上调独立预测早期 GC 的总生存期(HR:1.424,95%CI:1.169-1.735;p<0.001)和无复发生存期(HR:1.658,95%CI:1.292-2.128;p<0.001)不良,晚期 GC 的总生存期不良(HR:1.411,95%CI:1.137-1.752;p=0.002)。SLC22A16 的 DNA 低甲基化可能是一种补偿性机制,以维持 GC 中 SLC22A16 的升高,以弥补 DNA 的丢失。
SLC22A16 可能是 GC 中一个有价值的预后标志物。
