Abstract
Introduction. The complex of transcriptional proteins of NF-kB (Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) family deservedly attracts attention as a factor capable of determining the course of malignant disease. Its promising study in combination with the expression of proinflammatory gene IL6 in patients with parotid cancer (PSG) is associated with the development of modulation of malignant disease treatment and risk assessment of the disease course. Aims — to determine the effect of the expression activity of the proinflammatory interleukin-6 gene and the NFKB1 transcriptional gene on the survival rate of patients with parotid cancer. Materials and methods. A cohort retrospective study was conducted in two groups. The epidemiological group of patients included 140 people from the cancer registry of Rostov region. The clinical part of the work was carried out on 25 patients with PSG cancer of both sexes aged 50 to 80 years. Followup period of the patients after radical surgery was 18 years. Expression activity of NFKB1 and IL6 genes was estimated by real-time PCR in tumor and conditionally healthy tissue. Patient survival rate was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method. Results. According to the results of the survival analysis in the epidemiological group, the probability that an PSG cancer patient would survive the first year after diagnosis was 95.7%, three years — 82.4%, five years — 70.9% and 10 years — 31.2%. A comparative study of gene expression levels in tumor tissue samples compared to conditionally healthy tissue revealed an increase (p<0.001) in the relative index for both the IL6 gene (5.7 times) and the NFKB1 gene (7.9 times).><0.001) in the relative index for both the IL6 gene (5.7 times) and the NFKB1 gene (7.9 times). Discussion. Analysis of our data showed the possibility of using the complex evaluation of NFKB1 and IL6 gene expression in the cells of tumor samples of PSG cancer tissue obtained during surgery to predict the long-term survival of patients after surgical treatment. Conclusions. The expression profile of NFKB1 gene in tumor tissue was a proven prognostic factor determining the course of the disease in patients with PSG cancer, which should be taken into account when forming the prognosis of the disease. The expression of IL6 gene expression in tumor cells had no independent effect on the survival rate of PSG cancer patients, but contributed to the functional activation of NFKB1 transcription gene.
