摘要: 目的探讨激活转录因子3(ATF3)和成骨细胞特异性转录因子2(Runx2)在乳腺癌组织中的表达及临床意义。方法采用免疫组织化学法检测ATF3和Runx2在105例乳腺浸润性导管癌和相应癌旁乳腺组织中的表达情况,分析其与乳腺癌患者临床病理特征的关系。结果乳腺浸润性导管癌组ATF3和Runx2的阳性表达率分别为80.95%(85/105)和69.52%(73/105),显著高于癌旁乳腺组织的11.43%(12/105)和8.57%(9/105),差异均具有统计学意义(χ2=102.097,P=0.000;χ2=11.595,P=0.001)。ATF3和Runx2的表达与乳腺癌的组织学分级(χ2=14.623,P=0.001;χ2=24.891,P=0.000)、淋巴结转移(χ2=7.059,P=0.008;χ2=6.358,P=0.012)及pTNM分期相关(χ2=5.807,P=0.016;χ2=4.902,P=0.027),而与患者年龄(χ2=0.274,P=0.601;χ2=1.554,P=0.213)及肿瘤大小(χ2=2.476,P=0.290;χ2=5.261,P=0.072)无关。ATF3和Runx2在乳腺癌组织中的表达呈正相关(C=0.498,P=0.000)。结论ATF3和Runx2可能协同参与了乳腺癌的发生,而且ATF3和Runx2与乳腺癌的浸润、转移及临床分期有关,提示二者可能成为预测乳腺癌恶性程度和评估患者预后的重要指标。

Abstract: ObjectiveTo study the expressions and clinical significances of activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) and Runtrelated transcription factor 2 (Runx2) in breast carcinoma tissues. MethodsThe expressions of ATF3 and Runx2 were detected in 105 cases of primary breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and their matched paratumor breast tissues by immunohistochemistry. The relationships between the two transcription factors and the clinical pathological features of IDC patients were analyzed. ResultsThe positive expression rates of ATF3 and Runx2 in IDC group were 80.95% (85/105) and 69.52% (73/105) respectively, much higher than those in paratumor breast tissues 11.43% (12/105) and 8.57%(9/105), with statistically significant differences (χ2=102.097, P=0.000; χ2=11.595, P=0.001). ATF3 and Runx2 expressions showed significant relationships with histological grade (χ2=14.623, P=0.001; χ2=24.891, P=0.000), lymph node metastasis (χ2=7.059, P=0.008; χ2=6.358, P=0.012) and pTNM stage of IDC (χ2=5.807, P=0.016; χ2=4.902, P=0.027), while both were not correlated with patients′ age (χ2=0.274, P=0.601; χ2=1.554, P=0.213) and tumor size (χ2=2.476, P=0.290; χ2=5.261, P=0.072). There was a significant positive relationship between ATF3 and Runx2 in breast carcinoma (C=0.498, P=0.000). ConclusionThe overexpressions of ATF3 and Runx2 may participate in the tumorigenesis, invasion, metastasis and clinical stage of breast carcinoma, which suggests that they may be key factors to evaluate malignant degree and prognosis of breast carcinoma.
