Abstract
Background: Neuroblastoma, a pediatric malignancy, is significantly influenced by genetic factors. Prior research indicates that the OGG1 rs1052133 G > C polymorphism correlates with a decreased risk of neuroblastoma.
Methods: We analyzed 57 neuroblastoma and 21 adrenal samples, using immunohistochemistry to measure OGG1 and STUB1 expression levels. We conducted a survival analysis to explore relationship between the expressions and neuroblastoma prognosis.
Results: Notably higher OGG1 expression and significantly lower STUB1 expression in neuroblastoma. OGG1 levels were significantly correlated with patient age, tumor location, histological grade, Shimada classification, INSS stage, and risk category. A negative association was observed between OGG1 and STUB1 expressions. Higher OGG1 expression was linked to reduced PFS and OS. Lower STUB1 expression was associated with unfavorable PFS. Additionally, OGG1 expression and risk category emerged as independent predictors of prognosis.
Conclusion: OGG1 potentially functions as an oncogene in NB, with its activity possibly modulated by STUB1 through the ubiquitination pathway.
期刊介绍:
Fetal and Pediatric Pathology is an established bimonthly international journal that publishes data on diseases of the developing embryo, newborns, children, and adolescents. The journal publishes original and review articles and reportable case reports.
The expanded scope of the journal encompasses molecular basis of genetic disorders; molecular basis of diseases that lead to implantation failures; molecular basis of abnormal placentation; placentology and molecular basis of habitual abortion; intrauterine development and molecular basis of embryonic death; pathogenisis and etiologic factors involved in sudden infant death syndrome; the underlying molecular basis, and pathogenesis of diseases that lead to morbidity and mortality in newborns; prenatal, perinatal, and pediatric diseases and molecular basis of diseases of childhood including solid tumors and tumors of the hematopoietic system; and experimental and molecular pathology.
