Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world due to its high incidence and recurrence. Genetic instability is one of the main factors leading to its occurrence, development and poor prognosis. Decreased xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) expression notably enhances the stem cell properties of lung cancer cells and increases their proliferation and migration. Additionally, patients with lung cancer and low XPC expression had a poor prognosis. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the effect of XPC and IFN-γ on the clinical prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Lung adenocarcinoma specimens were collected from a total of 140 patients with NSCLC. Additionally, from these 140 patients, 48 paracarcinoma tissue specimens were also collected, which were later used to construct tissue microarrays. The expression of XPC and IFN-γ in cancer tissues and in paraneoplastic tissues was detected using immunohistochemistry. The prognosis and overall survival of patients were determined through telephone follow-up. The results showed a positive correlation between expression of XPC and IFN-γ in NSCLC. Additionally, high expression of both markers was associated with a favorable prognosis in patients with NSCLC. The aforementioned findings suggest that the expression of XPC and IFN-γ has prognostic value in clinical practice and is expected to become a marker for clinical application.
期刊介绍:
Oncology Letters is a monthly, peer-reviewed journal, available in print and online, that focuses on all aspects of clinical oncology, as well as in vitro and in vivo experimental model systems relevant to the mechanisms of disease.
The principal aim of Oncology Letters is to provide the prompt publication of original studies of high quality that pertain to clinical oncology, chemotherapy, oncogenes, carcinogenesis, metastasis, epidemiology and viral oncology in the form of original research, reviews and case reports.
