摘要: 目的: 探讨SOX-9在口腔鳞状细胞癌(oral squamous cell carcinoma,OSCC)中的表达及其临床意义。方法: 采用免疫组化检测正常口腔黏膜、口腔上皮不典型增生及口腔鳞癌组织中SOX-9蛋白的表达情况,分析SOX-9蛋白与临床病理因素的相关性。结果: SOX-9在正常口腔黏膜组织、口腔上皮不典型增生及口腔鳞癌组织中的阳性表达率分别为10%(2/20)、32.1%(9/28)及79.4%(27/34),SOX-9在3种组织依次增加,在肿瘤发生发展过程中,SOX-9表达增加,各组表达差异有统计意义(P<0.001)。SOX-9表达和患者肿瘤体积、淋巴结转移、临床分期有关。单因素分析显示,肿瘤体积、淋巴结转移、临床分期、SOX-9阳性表达与存活时间有关(P<0.05); Cox多因素分析显示淋巴结转移、临床分期、SOX-9阳性表达是OSCC患者存活时间的独立因素(P<0.05)。结论: SOX-9在口腔鳞癌中异常高表达,SOX-9 表达与口腔鳞癌患者存活率相关。

Abstract: Objective: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of SOX-9 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods: The expression of SOX-9 protein in normal oral mucosa, atypical hyperplasia of oral epithelium, and oral squamous cell carcinoma was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the correlation between SOX-9 protein and clinicopathological factors was analyzed. Results: The positive expression rates of SOX-9 in normal oral mucosa, atypical epithelial hyperplasia, and oral squamous cell carcinoma were 10% (2/20), 32.1% (9/28), and 79.4% (27/34), respectively. SOX-9 increased in three tissues in turn. The expression of SOX-9 increased in the process of tumor development, and the difference of expression in each group was statistically significant (P<0.001). The expression of SOX-9 was related to tumor volume, lymph node metastasis, and tumor stage. Single factor analysis showed that tumor volume, lymph node metastasis , tumor staging, and SOX-9 positive expression were related to survival time (P<0.05). After Cox multivariate analysis, only lymph node metastasis, tumor stage, and SOX-9 positive expression were independent factors affecting survival time (P<0.05). Conclusions: SOX-9 is highly expressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma. SOX-9 expression is associated with survival rate in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma.
