Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) are precursors of pancreatic cancer. Potential biomarkers of IPMN progression have not been identified in urine. A few urinary biomarkers were reported to be predictive of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Here, we seek to assess their ability to detect high-risk IPMN.
Urine was collected from patients undergoing pancreatic resection and healthy controls. TIMP-1(Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase-1), LYVE-1(Lymphatic Vessel Endothelial Receptor 1), and PGEM(Prostaglandin E Metabolite) levels were determined by ELISA and analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis.
Median urinary TIMP-1 levels were significantly lower in healthy controls (n = 9; 0.32 ng/mg creatinine) compared to PDAC (n = 13; 1.95) but not significantly different between low/moderate-grade (n = 20; 0.71) and high-grade/invasive IPMN (n = 20; 1.12). No significant difference in urinary LYVE-1 was detected between IPMN low/moderate (n = 16; 0.37 ng/mg creatinine) and high/invasive grades (n = 21; 0.09). Urinary PGEM levels were not significantly different between groups.
Urinary TIMP-1, LYVE-1, and PGEM do not correlate with malignant potential of pancreatic cysts.
导管内乳头状黏液性肿瘤(IPMN)是胰腺癌的前体。尚未在尿液中发现 IPMN 进展的潜在生物标志物。有报道称,一些尿液生物标志物可预测胰腺导管腺癌(PDAC)。在此,我们旨在评估它们检测高危 IPMN 的能力。
收集接受胰腺切除术的患者和健康对照者的尿液。通过 ELISA 测定 TIMP-1(组织金属蛋白酶抑制剂-1)、LYVE-1(淋巴管内皮受体 1)和 PGEM(前列腺素 E 代谢物)的水平,并通过 Kruskal-Wallis 进行分析。
与 PDAC(n=13;1.95)相比,健康对照组(n=9;0.32ng/mg 肌酐)的尿液 TIMP-1 中位水平显著降低,但在低/中等级(n=20;0.71)和高等级/侵袭性 IPMN(n=20;1.12)之间差异无统计学意义。在 IPMN 低/中等级(n=16;0.37ng/mg 肌酐)和高/侵袭性等级(n=21;0.09)之间,尿液 LYVE-1 无显著差异。各组间尿 PGEM 水平无显著差异。
尿液 TIMP-1、LYVE-1 和 PGEM 与胰腺囊肿的恶性潜能无关。
