Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC) is the predominant neoplasm affecting the female reproductive system. Early diagnosis of UCEC is crucial for improving patient survival rates. In this study, we selected and investigated two specific genes associated with hydrogen sulfide(HS): SLC2A1, which encodes a glucose transporter, and MPST, which encodes 3-mercaptopyruvate thiotransferase. Both SLC2A1 and MPST have been identified as important regulators in cancer. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential significance of SLC2A1 and MPST in terms of UCEC diagnosis and prognosis. Our analysis using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves demonstrated robust diagnostic and prognostic significance for both SLC2A1 and MPST. Moreover, our research revealed a significant association between the expression levels of SLC2A1 and MPST, immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint gene presence, and TP53 in UCEC tissues. Furthermore, we observed that DNA methylation status of the CpG island of SLC2A1 and the MPST gene is associated with UCEC prognosis. These findings suggest that SLC2A1 and MPST genes hold promise in distinguishing endometrial cancer patients from normal cases, highlighting their diagnostic and prognostic potential as biomarkers for UCEC. These results offer encouraging prospects for targeted therapies.
子宫体子宫内膜癌(UCEC)是影响女性生殖系统的主要肿瘤。UCEC的早期诊断对于提高患者生存率至关重要。在本研究中,我们选择并研究了两个与硫化氢(HS)相关的特定基因:编码葡萄糖转运蛋白的SLC2A1和编码3-巯基丙酮酸硫转移酶的MPST。SLC2A1和MPST均已被确定为癌症中的重要调节因子。本研究的目的是探讨SLC2A1和MPST在UCEC诊断和预后方面的潜在意义。我们使用Kaplan-Meier生存曲线和受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线进行的分析表明,SLC2A1和MPST均具有强大的诊断和预后意义。此外,我们的研究揭示了UCEC组织中SLC2A1和MPST的表达水平、免疫细胞浸润、免疫检查点基因的存在与TP53之间存在显著关联。此外,我们观察到SLC2A1和MPST基因的CpG岛的DNA甲基化状态与UCEC预后相关。这些发现表明,SLC2A1和MPST基因有望区分子宫内膜癌患者与正常病例,突出了它们作为UCEC生物标志物的诊断和预后潜力。这些结果为靶向治疗提供了令人鼓舞的前景。
