【摘要】 目的:探討三陰性乳腺癌(TNBC)組織中乙醛脫氫酶1(aldehyde dehydrogenases l,ALDH1)和CD44+/CD24-/low的表達及其與臨床預后的關系。方法:通過免疫組織化學SP法檢測ALDH1和CD44+/CD24-/low等生物學指標在30例三陰性乳腺癌(TNBC)術后石蠟切片組織和30例非三陰性乳腺癌術后石蠟切片組織中的表達,并分析其與TNBC的臨床預后因素的關系。結果:TNBC組織中ALDH1+表達率為46.67%,CD44+/CD24-/low陽性表達率為56.67%;非三陰性乳腺癌組織中ALDH1+表達率為16.67%,CD44+/CD24-/low陽性表達率為26.67%,TNBC組織中ALDH1和CD44+/CD24-/low陽性表達率明顯高于非三陰性乳腺組織,兩者比較差異有統計學意義(P<0.05)。腋窩淋巴結轉移率在CD44+/CD24-/low與ALDH1均陽性表達組和非陽性表達組中分別為66.67%和23.81%( 字2=4.983,P=0.035);局部復發和/或轉移率分別為33.34%和0( 字2=7.778,P=0.021)。結論:TNBC組織中ALDH1+和CD44+/CD24-/low過表達,可以作為判斷TNBC患者預后的標記物。

【Abstract】 Objective:To investigate the expression and relationship with clinical prognosis of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) and the CD44+/CD24-/low in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) organization.Method:ALDH1
and CD44+/CD24-/low biological index was detected by immunohistochemical SP method in 30 cases of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) postoperative paraffin tissue and 30 cases of non-triple negative breast cancer postoperative paraffin tissue,and its relationship with the clinical prognostic factors was analyzed.Result:The expression rate of ALDH1+ in TNBC was 46.67% and in non-triple negative breast cancer tissue was 16.67% respectively,the expression rate of CD44+/CD24-/low in TNBC was 56.67% and in non-triple negative breast cancer tissue was 26.67% respectively,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The positive expression rates of ALDH1 and CD44+/CD24-/low in TNBC tissue was significantly higher than in the non-triple negative breast cancer tissue.Axillary lymph node metastasis rate in CD44+/CD24-/low and ALDH1 both positive expression group and the non positive expression group were 66.67% and 23.81% respectively ( 字2=4.983,P=4.983).Local recurrence and/or metastasis rates were 33.34% and 0 respectively ( 字2=7.778,P=7.778).Conclusion:Overexpression of ALDH1+ and CD44+/CD24-/low may be used as a marker for the prognosis of patients with TNBC subtype.

乳腺癌是目前威脅女性生命健康最常見的惡性腫瘤之一,三陰性乳腺癌(triple-negative breast cancer,TNBC)最早是由Sorlie等[1]提出,指雌激素受體(estrogen receptor,ER)、孕激素受體(progesterone receptor,PR)和人表皮生長因子受體2(human epidermal growth factor receptor-2,HER2)均為陰性的一類乳腺癌,占基底細胞樣型(basal-like)型的80%~90%,具有侵襲性強和容易遠處轉移的臨床病理特征,并且臨床上缺乏有效的內分泌治療和抗HER-2靶向治療,缺乏有效的預測指標來檢驗其治療效果,因此在乳癌分子亞型中預后最差。CD44+/CD24-/low或ALDH1+目前公認的乳癌干細胞標志物,2003年Al-Hajj等[2]發現CD44+/CD24-/low表型的乳腺癌細胞可以作為乳腺腫瘤干細胞(breast cancer stem cell,BCSCs),具有自我更新和多向分化成瘤的能力,是惡性腫瘤轉移復發的基礎,并且在細胞成瘤實驗中,具有很強的成瘤能力和轉移能力。隨后Ginestier等[3]證實ALDH1+乳腺癌細胞也具有乳腺癌干細胞特性,并且發現其表達與乳腺癌患者預后差有關。目前乳腺癌研究中,多局限于ALDH1+和CD44+/CD24-/low各自的表達情況,有關二者在三陰性乳腺癌預后作用價值的報道尚少,且存有爭議。……
