Prostate cancer (PC) is the second most prevalent cancer in men. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is the main biomarker for screening PC. An increase in PSA could lead to false-positive results. Thus, more appropriate markers should be investigated. In the present study, JPX and LINC00641 expression levels were measured in tumoral prostate tissue compared with the non-tumor tissue.
43 pairs of prostate tumoral and non-tumor tissue were prepared. The expression levels of JPX and LINC00641 were investigated by RT-qPCR.
FINDINGS/RESULTS: Significant upregulation of LINC00641 (2.47 ± 0.5 1.41 ± 0.2) and downregulation of JPX (1.42 ± 0.6 2.83 ± 1.0) were observed in PC tissues compared with the normal tissues (their adjacent non-tumoral tissues).
Dysregulation of JPX and LINC00641 in PC patients could be used in the future as a prognostic biomarker in PC.
前列腺癌(PC)是男性中第二常见的癌症。前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)是筛查PC的主要生物标志物。PSA升高可能导致假阳性结果。因此,应研究更合适的标志物。在本研究中,测定了肿瘤性前列腺组织与非肿瘤组织中JPX和LINC00641的表达水平。
制备了43对前列腺肿瘤组织和非肿瘤组织。通过RT-qPCR研究JPX和LINC00641的表达水平。
与正常组织(其相邻的非肿瘤组织)相比,在PC组织中观察到LINC00641显著上调(2.47±0.5对1.41±0.2),JPX显著下调(1.42±0.6对2.83±1.0)。
PC患者中JPX和LINC00641的失调未来可作为PC的预后生物标志物。
