摘要: 目的 检测上皮-间质转化(EMT)在子宫内膜腺癌中的发生, 并探讨miR200a/E盒结合锌指蛋白1(ZEB1)信号通路在其中发挥的作用。方法 ① 分组:取自石蜡切片的子宫内膜腺癌为A组(n=45), 正常子宫内膜为B组(n=22);取自手术中的子宫内膜腺癌标本为C组(n=34), 正常子宫内膜标本为D组(n=15);② 采用免疫组化法检测A、B两组间E钙黏蛋白(E-cadherin)、波形蛋白(Vimentin)、ZEB1的表达;采用Western blotting法检测C、D两组间上述3种蛋白的表达;③ Real-time RT-PCR法检测C、D两组间各蛋白相应mRNA及miR200a的表达。结果 ① B组与A组比较, E-cadherin表达降低(P<0.05), Vimentin及ZEB1表达升高(P<0.05);② D组与C组比较, E-cadherin蛋白及mRNA表达降低(P<0.05), Vimentin蛋白及mRNA表达升高(P<0.05), ZEB1蛋白及mRNA表达升高(P<0.05);③ 与C组数据相比, D组中miR200a表达量降低(P<0.05), D组中miR200a与E-cadherin的mRNA表达量之间存在正相关关系(r=0.63, P<0.01)。结论 子宫内膜腺癌中明确发生了EMT过程, 而miR200a/ZEB1信号通路可对EMT过程中重要的分子标记物产生抑制作用。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the occurrence of epithelia-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in endometrial carcinoma and examine the roles of miR200a/zinc finger E-box-binding protein 1(ZEB1) signaling pathway in this process. Methods Different groups of samples were collected, including paraffin sections of endometrial adenocarcinoma tissues (group A, n=22), endometrial tissues after resection of uterine myoma(group B, n=45), endometrial adenocarcinoma samples obtained during operation(group C, n=15) and healthy endometrial tissues(group D, n=34). Expressions of E-cadherin, Vimentin and ZEB1 in group A and group B were investigated with immunohistochemistry. Expressions of E-cadherin, Vimentin and ZEB1 and their mRNA in group C and group D were evaluated with Western blotting and Real-time RT-PCR. Expression of miR200a in group C and D was determined with Real-time RT-PCR. Results ① Compared with group A, group B had significantly decreased expression of E-cadherin, and markedly increased expressions of Vimentin and ZEB1(both P<0.05). ② Compared with group C, group D had decreased E-cadherin and its mRNA expressions but increased expressions of Vimentin and its mRNA, and ZEB1 and its mRNA (all P<0.05). ③ Compared with group C, group D exhibited remarkably elevated miR200a, which was positively correlated to E-cadherin's mRNA(r=0.63, P<0.01)as indicated by a linear regression analysis. Conclusions EMT occurs in endometrial adenocarcinoma. The miR200/ZEB1signaling pathway can inhibit the important molecular markers in EMT.
